SELF
Embrace Freedom: Unveiling the Soul's Journey in SELF by Brandon Banks and Mereba
Lyrics
But you're free now
Expressing freedom or liberation.
Free now, free now, free now
Emphasizing the sense of freedom.
This how you want to spend your days?
Raising a question about life choices.
Running from what you can feel
Avoiding emotions or experiences.
Seeking truth inside the world
Searching for truth in the external world.
Still can't lie to yourself
Being unable to deceive oneself.
This how you want to spend your days?
Repeating the question about life choices.
Running from what you can feel
Reiteration of avoiding emotions or experiences.
Seeking truth inside the world
Rephrasing the search for truth.
Still can't lie to yourself
Reinforcing the inability to deceive oneself.
Yourself, yourself
Emphasizing self-awareness.
She was an angel draped in platinum and gold
Describing someone as precious and radiant.
Supple as a string in tune to speak to your soul
Comparing the person to a tuned string that resonates with the soul.
Plucking at your wants until it's all that you got
Highlighting the person's influence on desires.
Praying that a feather lift this, weight off your heart
Hoping for relief from the burden on the heart.
Lead you from the source to make it back is a fee
Suggesting a cost to deviate from one's true self.
But any path is righteous if you following dreams (yourself)
Emphasizing the righteousness of pursuing dreams.
Not to be the tallest but the root of the tree
Desiring depth and foundation rather than height.
Never feel the smallest but the base of your peace
Embracing importance despite feeling small.
Free now found my set of wings now
Announcing newfound freedom and empowerment.
See I had to slaughter that fear stuck inside, I
Overcoming fear and obstacles.
Broke through soil from below it
Metaphorically breaking through difficulties.
He tried to divide my insides
Facing internal challenges.
But my dirt it is the gold now, that's the quotient
Transforming challenges into valuable experiences.
Add it to my potion and it's potent
Enhancing personal strength and resilience.
And the terror took a toll but I'm still floatin'
Acknowledging hardships but remaining resilient.
Freer than I've ever been
Feeling liberated and unrestrained.
Freer than most my sisters and my brethren
Comparing freedom to others.
'Cause I went inside myself
Choosing introspection for answers.
And the answers were embedded in
Finding solutions within oneself.
(Free now)
Reiteration of freedom.
(Free now, free now, free now, free now)
Repeating emphasis on freedom.
This how you want to spend your days?
Repeating the question about life choices.
Running from what you can feel
Reiteration of avoiding emotions or experiences.
Seeking truth inside the world
Rephrasing the search for truth.
Still can't lie to yourself (yourself)
Reinforcing the inability to deceive oneself.
This how you want to spend your days?
Repeating the question about life choices.
Running from what you can feel
Reiteration of avoiding emotions or experiences.
Seeking truth inside the world
Rephrasing the search for truth.
Still can't lie to yourself
Reinforcing the inability to deceive oneself.
Yourself, yourself (yourself)
Emphasizing self-awareness.
