Level With Yourself
Embrace Authenticity: Leveling with Yourself for Inner Peace
Lyrics
Wake up in the morning
Starting the day
Check your revelation
Evaluating your personal revelation or understanding
Making sure you know it as well as you can
Ensuring thorough knowledge of it
Then sell it to yourself man
Convincing yourself of its validity
'Cause it won't make a difference
Emphasizing the importance of personal belief
If everyone believes it but you don't believe it
Highlighting the significance of personal conviction over collective belief
Just level with yourself
Encouraging self-honesty and acceptance
Level with yourself
-Level with yourself
-And be at peace with the
Attaining inner peace through self-awareness
You're making a list of all the negative side effects
Listing negative consequences of personal actions
That come with the shit you let yourself get away with
Reflection on the repercussions of one's choices
Oh your God
Addressing one's concept of God or higher power
You're building a wall between the kids and the gasoline
Creating a barrier between innocence and harmful influences
Of editorial and advertising
Commenting on the separation of content and promotion
Riches I heed not
Rejecting material wealth and societal approval
Nor man's empty praise
-Means f*ck the gatekeeper
-'Cause I'm fine outside the gate
-I wanna level with myself
Expressing a desire for honesty and peace in relationships
I wanna level with my friends
-I wanna level with my kin
-And be at peace with them
-I'm making a list of all the negative side effects
Reiterating the assessment of negative consequences
That come with the shit I let myself get away with
-Oh my God
Continuing the metaphor of building a protective barrier
I'm building a wall between the kids and the gasoline
-Of editorial and advertising
