Journey of Self-Discovery: Embracing Roots and Overcoming Inner Battles
Lyrics
i spend every day and every night
I dedicate my time day and night
living for the weekend
My life revolves around the anticipation of the weekend
my momma prays that i'll be alright i think i'm always g-going off the deep end my mood it swings, my views on life
My mother hopes for my well-being, but I often find myself in challenging situations; my emotions are unpredictable, and my perspectives on life constantly shift
are changing like the seasons
My outlook on life changes similar to how seasons transition
what happiness brings my brain takes away, really for no reason
Whatever joy I experience, my mind tends to take it away without any apparent cause
i don't know what i gotta do what i gotta be
I'm uncertain about what actions and identity I need to pursue
what i'm meant to be
I want to discover my true purpose
is what i'm meant to see r-really meant for me
I believe that what I'm destined to be is what I'm meant to perceive, truly intended for me
ancestors please will you guide me
I seek guidance from my ancestors
i need your energy beside me
I require their supportive energy
i've been fighting the enemy that's inside me cause you know i can't be me without you without you
I've been battling my inner struggles, acknowledging that I cannot be my authentic self without their influence
lately i been feeling like a mess instead of a success
Lately, I've been feeling like a failure rather than a success
i'm thinking that i fell behind
I perceive myself as falling behind in life
put my all in then it ends up in a wreck but what did i expect?
Despite giving my best effort, things often end up in chaos
know i ain't been living right
I acknowledge that I haven't been living according to the right values
and that's the reason i've been distant switch up in an instant
The reason for my emotional distance is a sudden change, almost immediate
there's something going wrong in my head is spinning what is this existence gotta be deficient
Something is going wrong in my mind, causing confusion and a feeling of inadequacy
i think there's something missing
I sense that there's something missing in my life
i don't know what i gotta do what i gotta be
I'm still unsure about the actions and identity I need to pursue
what i'm meant to be
I want to discover my true purpose (repeated from line 8)
is what i'm meant to see r-really meant for me
I believe that what I'm destined to be is what I'm meant to perceive, truly intended for me (repeated from line 9)
ancestors please will you guide me
I seek guidance from my ancestors (repeated from line 11)
i need your energy beside me
I require their supportive energy (repeated from line 12)
i've been fighting the enemy that's inside me cause you know i can't be me without you without you
I've been battling my inner struggles, acknowledging that I cannot be my authentic self without their influence (repeated from line 13)
i'm disconnected from my roots
I feel disconnected from my cultural and ancestral roots
searching for answers inside of scriptures i've been reading since a youth
I'm seeking answers within the religious texts I've been studying since childhood
i spent years on safari chasing the truth
I've spent years searching for truth like on a safari
and what i found was that i always been aloof but when i'm in the booth
Despite my detached demeanor, when I'm creating, I'm fully engaged
i be locked in
I feel a connection to past generations when I'm in the creative process
i feel the generations before
I'm fully immersed and focused
now i'm clocked in
my ori venerating for sure
I used to think life was about following current fashion trends, but now I realize it's about genuine love (cherie amour)
i always thought it'd be about copping christian dior flavors du jour
Now, I'm going with the flow, following the concept of "wu wei" (effortless action)
but it's all about cherie amour
I used to focus on materialistic desires but now prioritize genuine love (cherie amour)
and now i'm going with the flow
I'm adapting to the present moment
they call it wu wei
Embracing the philosophy of "wu wei" and leaving the past behind
old me is buried now i'm focused on the today believe in yourself the world could never doubt you cause you know i can't be me without you
I am now focused on the present and believe in self-confidence, regardless of external doubts (repeated from line 13)
