Running Uphill
Running Uphill: Conquering Life's Trials with Resilience
Lyrics
It's like I'm always picking petals off a stem
Expressing a feeling of repetitive decision-making, akin to plucking petals off a flower.
Making movies in the clouds only to figure out what's truly on my mind
Creating imaginary scenarios but seeking clarity about true thoughts.
and it'll turn to dust tomorrow with all the time we spent in sorrow
Recognizing that efforts and time invested may dissolve, possibly referencing regrets.
I know, I know, I know, I won't, I won't, I won't
Commitment to not letting challenges overcome or consume the individual.
let it get the best of me or let it take the rest of me
-The hands of time will never hold me still
Emphasizing resilience against the passage of time, portraying determination not to be stagnant.
I don't know how long I'll be running uphill
-I feel like the sky again, I'm ready to cry
-but I know, I know it won't last
-It's like I'm always on the greener side
-Green inside, I know it's not actually greener on the other side
-and it'll fade from view tomorrow if these boots keep running and never stop I know, I know, I know, I won't, I won't, I won't
-let it get the best of me or let it take the rest of me
-The hands of time will never hold me still
-I don't know how long I'll be running uphill
Anticipating emotional turmoil but acknowledging it as temporary.
I feel like the sky again, I'm ready to cry
-but I know, I know it won't last
-I used to see the springtime as a reminder
Reflecting on the changing seasons as a metaphor for adapting and coping with life's challenges.
that sometimes you gotta double touch the space to get to finder
-I used to double dutch the pain until I lost the timer
-I've been lost and really looking for myself
-kinda praying I could find ya
Expressing a sense of searching for identity, feeling lost, and possibly broken.
and maybe I'm lost just like the ocean
-or maybe I'm just really kinda broken
-Maybe a weeks been weak
Describing a period of emotional and physical exhaustion, expressing a desire for change.
and the weeks been pain
-maybe I'm tired of the weak
-and I don't wanna be the same
-but I know I could never let them break me down
Declaring resilience and determination to withstand external pressures and challenges.
I won't let them see me frown from here to now
-I can only scream it loud like I know I know I know I won't I won't I won't
-Let it get the best of me or let it take the rest of me
Reiterating the resolve not to be subdued by time or circumstances.
The hands of time will never hold me still
-I don't know how long I'll be running uphill
-I feel like the sky again, I'm ready to cry
Acknowledging the emotional weight, yet affirming the temporary nature of the struggle.
but I know, I know, I know, I know it won't last
