Embracing Life's Journey: Chase Matthew's Shortcuts to Healing and Strength
Lyrics
Some say
Some express the belief that one must be inherently inclined to believe in something.
You gotta be a born believer
Continuation of the notion that being a born believer is necessary.
Some say
Reiteration of the idea that some people emphasize the importance of being a believer.
And some think
Some individuals believe that there is no other source of healing.
That you won't find another healer
Contrastingly, some think that alternative sources of healing exist.
Some think
There are those who believe differently.
But some say I'm no better than the next man
Others claim that the speaker is not superior to the average person.
I won't turn left to a right hand
The speaker won't deviate from their principles or change their beliefs easily.
And I'm still strong, yeah, I've heard that (I'm still strong)
The speaker acknowledges their strength and resilience.
And right from wrong, yeah, I've learned that
They have learned to distinguish between right and wrong.
I'm not hiding what's inside me
The speaker is open about their emotions and thoughts.
I've learned my lesson, I know you can't see
Despite challenges, the speaker has learned important lessons that may not be apparent to others.
And hell, yeah, man, it's been a long road
Expressing gratitude for the difficult but transformative journey.
But thank you, Lord, for the shortcuts home
Gratitude to the Lord for providing shortcuts on the challenging path.
Some say
Some advocate pushing through pain and difficulties.
You got to push through the hurtin'
Reiteration of the idea that overcoming hardships is essential.
Some say
Some think that their life lacks value or meaning.
Some think
Alternative perspectives exist regarding the worth of life.
That their life ain't really worth it
Some individuals believe their life is not worthwhile.
Some think
Blank line, possibly for emphasis or reflection.
But some say I'm no better than the next man
The speaker remains true to themselves and their values.
I won't turn left to a right hand
They won't compromise their principles for convenience.
And I'm still strong, yeah, I've heard that (I'm still strong)
The speaker affirms their strength despite challenges.
And right from wrong, yeah, I've learned that
They have learned to distinguish right from wrong.
I'm not hiding what's inside me
The speaker is transparent about their emotions and thoughts.
I've learned my lesson, I know you can't see
Despite challenges, the speaker has learned important lessons that may not be apparent to others.
And hell, yeah, man, it's been a long road
Expressing gratitude for the challenging but transformative journey.
But thank you, Lord, for the shortcuts home
Gratitude to the Lord for providing shortcuts on the challenging path.
For the shortcuts home
Reiteration of thanks for the shortcuts home.
I'm not hiding a thing
Emphasizing transparency, the speaker declares they are not hiding anything.
I'm not hiding a thing
Repetition of the declaration that nothing is being concealed.
I'm not hiding a thing
Further repetition of the idea that there are no hidden aspects.
But some say I'm no better than the next man
Reiteration of the claim that the speaker is not superior to the average person.
I won't turn left to a right hand
The speaker remains true to themselves and their values.
And I'm still strong, yeah, I've heard that (heard that)
The speaker affirms their strength despite challenges.
And right from wrong, yeah, I've learned that (yeah)
They have learned to distinguish right from wrong.
I'm not hiding what's inside me (inside me)
The speaker is transparent about their emotions and thoughts.
I've learned my lesson, I know you can't see (can't see)
Despite challenges, the speaker has learned important lessons that may not be apparent to others.
And hell, yeah, man, it's been a long road
Expressing gratitude for the challenging but transformative journey.
But thank you, Lord, for the shortcuts home
Gratitude to the Lord for providing shortcuts on the challenging path.
For the shortcuts home
