if the moon is just a stone
Unveiling Dreams: Bona Rhodes' Lunar Allegory
Lyrics
Sketch a sign
Begin to symbolize or represent something
Paint the sky and let me know
Create an artistic representation of the sky and inform me
When you think you got it all
When you believe you possess everything
Challenge me
Challenge me, provoke or incite me
Oh bold man I'm asleep
Expressing a lack of concern or interest, not fully engaged
If the moon is just a stone
Questioning the perception that the moon is merely an inanimate object
How should we
How do we
Get along
Coexist or interact harmoniously
Because, you won't succeed so please
As you won't achieve success, kindly
If you ain't got a dream, then work must be your philosophy
If you lack aspirations, then prioritize work over everything else
And the moon is just a stone
Reiterating doubt about the moon's significance as only an object
Fire
An intense emotion or passion
My desire set me free
My longing drives my liberation
I won't be asleep anymore
I refuse to remain unaware or passive any longer
Conquer me
Overcome or subdue me
Old man I don't agree
Expressing disagreement with an elderly person
That the moon is just a stone
Challenging the notion that the moon holds no deeper meaning
How should we
How can we
Get along
Exist together or collaborate effectively
Because, you won't succeed so please
Because, you won't achieve success, so
If you ain't got a dream, then work must be your philosophy
If you lack dreams, then prioritize work as your guiding principle
And the moon is just a stone
Reiterating skepticism about the moon being just an ordinary object
