Lyrics
Dear anger
Addressing the emotion of anger
Have a seat, serve yourself some tea
Inviting anger to open up and share its presence
Kindly tell me what you're trying to show me
Requesting an explanation or revelation from anger
What's the path to setting you free?
Asking about the way to release or resolve anger
Before, I was a hundred days of sorrow
Reflecting on a past period filled with sorrow
Resentment, trapped, stirring a soul
Feeling trapped and stirred by resentment
Ingratitude, injustice, invalidation
Enumerating feelings of ingratitude, injustice, and invalidation
Indignation birthed from betrayal
Expressing indignation born from a sense of betrayal
I am the sadness with nowhere to go
Identifying as sadness with no outlet
I am the passion denied for so long
Acknowledging passion that has been denied for an extended period
I am the bitterness imprisoned
Describing bitterness that feels imprisoned
Behold, the other side of anger
Revealing the unexplored aspect of anger
Hurt is what lies in my roots
Pointing to hurt as the foundation of anger
Quite overwhelming, making me cruel
Feeling overwhelmed and becoming cruel due to hurt
Underneath unresolved pain I'll be
Being under the influence of unresolved pain
See me, feel me, set me free
Requesting recognition, empathy, and freedom from pain
Before, I was a hundred days of sorrow
Recalling a past period of sorrowful emotions
Resentment, trapped, stirring a soul
Still feeling trapped and stirred by resentment
Ingratitude, injustice, invalidation
Reiterating ingratitude, injustice, and invalidation
Indignation birthed from betrayal
Reaffirming indignation arising from betrayal
I am the sadness with nowhere to go
Reiterating the presence of sadness with no resolution
I am the passion denied for so long
Reiterating the denial of passion for an extended period
I am the bitterness imprisoned
Reiterating the feeling of imprisoned bitterness
Behold, the other side of anger
Emphasizing the unexplored aspect of anger
Listen to me!
Commanding attention to the expression of anger
Listen to me!
-I am the sadness with nowhere to go
Reiterating the presence of unresolved sadness
I am the passion denied for so long
Reiterating the denial of passion for an extended period
I am the bitterness imprisoned
Reiterating the feeling of imprisoned bitterness
Behold, the other side of anger
Emphasizing the unexplored aspect of anger
The Other Side of Anger
Highlighting the title and theme of the song - "The Other Side of Anger"
The Other Side of Anger
