Been so Long
Overcoming Silence: Embracing Strength in Adversity
Lyrics
Wanna move on but there seems to be a wall
Expressing a desire to move forward, but encountering obstacles or resistance.
What does it take to make a friend who will catch your fall
Questioning the qualities needed in a friend who can provide support during difficult times.
Wait for the sound of help but no one seems to call
Waiting for assistance, but feeling a sense of abandonment as no one comes to help.
What if everything you feared
Pondering the insignificance of fears and worries in the grand scheme of things.
It didn't matter at all
Suggesting that the fears and concerns might not have significant consequences.
Where do you find the words you really want to say
Reflecting on the difficulty of finding the right words to express oneself.
Why does the feeling appear and then it goes away
Questioning the fleeting nature of certain emotions or experiences.
Why do they beat you down when you start to ball
Wondering why others criticize or undermine when success is achieved.
They fall deeper in love with the bus when they watch you crawl
Commenting on people's tendency to show support when you're down but distance themselves when you succeed.
All of the years they took the keys and the credit from you
Reflecting on the years where opportunities and recognition were taken away.
To get the taste of a win you got to learn to lose
Highlighting the necessity of experiencing losses to appreciate and savor victories.
So now sing a song
Encouraging the act of singing a song as a positive expression.
You can do no wrong
Emphasizing that, in this moment, one can do no wrong.
Now you're feeling strong
Describing a feeling of strength and empowerment.
And it's been so long
Expressing that a significant amount of time has passed since a particular experience or feeling.
You know it's been so long
Reiterating the prolonged duration since the mentioned experience or feeling.
And it's been so long
Repeating the sentiment of a considerable amount of time passing.
And It's been so long
Reaffirming the extended duration of time since the mentioned experience.
And it's been so long
Emphasizing once again the substantial length of time that has passed.
It's been so long
Repeating the statement that it has been a significant amount of time.
It's been so long
Reiterating the notion that a considerable time period has elapsed.
