Trouble
Inner Turmoil: Navigating Love's Illusions
Lyrics
I got trouble shutting off my mind
I struggle with stopping my thoughts and finding mental peace.
I got trouble knowing good from right
I find it challenging to distinguish between what is morally right or good.
I struggle letting thoughts convince me otherwise
I face difficulty resisting thoughts that try to convince me otherwise.
Like they don't love you like you think they do
Doubtful about the sincerity of others' love.
The only thing that's constant is change
Expressing the idea that change is the only constant.
You fall in love with a chapter
Falling in love with a phase of life before moving on.
Before you flip the page
Expressing confusion about understanding how one can give everything.
I don't understand how you can give everything
Questioning the sincerity of someone or something that later acts indifferently.
To someone, or something
Reflecting on people pretending to be actors always needing to win.
So they can, later act like it's nothing
Uncertain about personal responsibility in repeated failures in love.
Then they go around and pretend
Acknowledging a pattern of repeatedly falling in love.
Like they're some sort of actor that always has to win
Wholehearted giving without considering potential consequences.
I don't know if I'm the one to blame
Facing betrayal and deception.
Because I keep falling, over and over again
Recognizing the need to confront a deceptive situation.
I give 100 of my heart out and leave it all on display
Giving everything emotionally without considering the potential fallout.
Not even thinking consequences that could come from it
Realizing the need to remove oneself from a deceitful situation.
I had to pull the knife from my back out
Contemplating the idea that showing grace may require creating distance.
Just to see you lie to my face
Repeating the struggle with stopping intrusive thoughts.
Maybe I just to have to face that
Feeling responsible for seeking validation from others.
Giving grace will look like putting space up
Recognizing a common human struggle to comprehend.
I got trouble shutting off my mind
Frustration with being a stepping stone for others' personal gain.
I got trouble knowing good from right
Expressing tiredness of being used for others' advancement.
I struggle letting thoughts convince me otherwise
Reflecting on the creation of false personas for personal gain.
Like they don't love you like you think they do
Questioning the habit of overthinking and connecting unrelated thoughts.
Maybe it's my fault for putting validation in people's hands
Anticipating negative consequences from overanalyzing intentions.
Or maybe is that we all fall and fall short to understand
Revisiting past experiences and dwelling on them.
Either or I'm tired of being a stepping stool for people to land
Using a biblical reference (7 times 70) to highlight repeated struggles.
For their own personal advance, to have an upper-hand
Expressing the ongoing challenge of stopping intrusive thoughts.
To build the manufactured lie that they call a brand
Reiterating the ongoing struggle to find mental peace.
Why do I overstep and overthink and let my thoughts make those connections
Continuing to grapple with shutting off troubling thoughts.
As if its not going to take me down the rabbit hole of their intentions
Repeating the difficulty of stopping intrusive thoughts.
And relive situations
Reiterating the challenge of shutting off troubling thoughts.
7 times 70 and a clear punctuation
Continuing to face trouble in stopping intrusive thoughts.
I got trouble shutting off my mind
Repeating the ongoing struggle with intrusive thoughts.
I got trouble shutting off my mind
Continuing to express difficulty in shutting off troubling thoughts.
I got trouble shutting off my mind
Reiterating the ongoing challenge of stopping intrusive thoughts.
I got trouble shutting off my mind
Continuing to face trouble in shutting off troubling thoughts.
