Bleed
Unraveling Societal Expectations: My Heart's Rebellion
Lyrics
Don't try to tell me what you think I should be
Don't try to dictate what you believe my identity should be.
Don't try to tell me what you think I should say
Don't attempt to control or influence what you think I should express verbally.
Don't try to tell me where you think I should play
Do not impose your opinions on where I should belong or participate.
Don't try to tell me who you think I should see
Don't insist on deciding who I should associate with or engage with.
Don't try to tell me how you think I should pray
Respect my autonomy in choosing how I express spirituality or faith.
Don't try to tell me how you think I should deal
Do not try to prescribe how I should handle or cope with situations.
Don't try to tell me how you think I should feel
Respect my emotions and don't dictate how I should experience or express them.
I'm not going to relax (my heart bleeds for you, baby)
I won't ease up or become complacent (expressing sarcasm or irony).
Calm down, you betta check ya facts (my heart bleeds for you, baby)
Stay composed; you should verify the accuracy of your information.
Losing respect from what you lack (my heart bleeds for you, baby)
Losing admiration due to your shortcomings (expressing criticism).
Watching society collapse
Observing the breakdown of societal structures or values.
Not gonna tell you what i think you should be
I won't impose my views on what I think you should become.
Not gonna tell you what i think you should say
I won't dictate what I believe you should express verbally.
Not gonna tell you where i think you should play
I won't dictate where I believe you should belong or participate.
Not gonna tell you who i think you should see
I won't dictate who I believe you should associate with or engage with.
Not gonna tell you how i think you should pray
I won't dictate how I believe you should express spirituality or faith.
Not gonna tell you how i think you should deal
I won't dictate how I believe you should handle or cope with situations.
Not gonna tell you how i think you should feel
I won't dictate how I believe you should experience or express emotions.
I'm not going to relax (my heart bleeds for you, baby)
I won't ease up or become complacent (expressing sarcasm or irony).
Calm down, you betta check ya facts (my heart bleeds for you, baby)
Stay composed; you should verify the accuracy of your information.
Losing respect from what you lack (my heart bleeds for you, baby)
Losing admiration due to your shortcomings (expressing criticism).
Watching society collapse (my heart bleeds for you, baby)
Observing the breakdown of societal structures or values.
You don't have any control of me
Asserting independence; rejecting attempts to control or influence.
exposing your lack of empathy
Revealing a lack of understanding or concern for others.
Your train of thought, flyin' off the track
Criticizing a flawed line of thinking that is deviating from the correct path.
compassion slipping through the cracks
Noticing a decline in compassion or empathy.
(My heart bleeds for you, baby)
(Expressing sarcasm or irony) I won't ease up or become complacent.
This battle has only just begun (my heart bleeds for you, baby)
The conflict or struggle has just started (sarcastically expressing empathy).
Spewing like bullets from a gun (my heard bleeds for you, baby)
Words are being spoken rapidly and aggressively, akin to bullets from a gun.
Is this what our dreams have become?
Reflecting on whether our aspirations have deteriorated into this undesirable state.
progress we've made slowly come Undone
The advancements or positive changes we've achieved are unraveling.
Your heart bleeds for me, baby
Your emotions or concerns are insincere (expressing skepticism).
