Afterglow
Embrace the Afterglow: A Poetic Journey of Resilience and Redemption
Lyrics
Drop the ball and watch it bounce
Embrace challenges and setbacks, and observe their outcomes.
Give a gallon, own an ounce
Give generously, even if it's a small amount, and take ownership of what you have.
Try and fail, and try again
Persist in trying despite failures, making repeated attempts to succeed.
Lose the sword and find a pen
Transition from conflict or aggression (sword) to a more peaceful and creative approach (pen).
We all want to be the ones who know
Desire knowledge, but avoid seeking attention; find fulfillment in the aftermath.
But shun the flash and be the afterglow
Emphasize the importance of humility and the quiet impact one can have.
Take the wheel and turn it round
Take control and change direction in life when necessary.
Drop the ball and break the ground
Face challenges, even if it leads to breaking established norms.
Get outside of your own head
Escape self-centered thoughts and broaden perspective.
Misidentify instead
Misinterpret situations instead of being stuck in overthinking.
Let your actions make mistakes
Allow your actions to be imperfect; learn from mistakes.
Drop the ball and watch it break
Reinforce the idea of embracing mistakes and their consequences.
Let your actions make mistakes
-Drop the ball and watch it break
-We all want to be the ones who know
Aspire to possess knowledge, but find satisfaction in being a subtle influence.
But shun the flash and be the afterglow
Reiterate the importance of avoiding the spotlight and enjoying the aftermath.
We all want to be the one who knows
Express the desire to be knowledgeable, but acknowledge the transient nature of being special.
But special is as special swiftly goes
Highlight the fleeting nature of being unique or exceptional.
We all want to be the one who knows
Revisit the theme of desiring knowledge while recognizing its fleeting nature.
But special is as special swiftly goes
Reemphasize the transient nature of being special or exceptional.
We all want to be the ones who know
Reiterate the desire for knowledge, suggesting finding fulfillment in subtlety.
So shun the flash and be the afterglow
Encourage avoiding the limelight and finding fulfillment in the aftermath.
