Still Thirsty
Unshackling Truth: Painting Purpose Beyond Societal Walls
Lyrics
And if this life's your canvas
If life is your canvas, take the opportunity to define your purpose.
Don't hesitate to paint you purpose
Encouragement to boldly express and assert your purpose, transcending obstacles.
Over walls that paint your direction
Challenge societal norms that dictate your path; assert your own direction.
Shout the thoughts your world is too scared
Speak out about thoughts that society avoids addressing due to fear.
To mention
Address topics that make the world uncomfortable or hesitant to discuss.
Or have you been shackled to the sitcoms
Questioning whether one is passively absorbed in mainstream media.
Or have you been guided by the tabloids
Reflecting on the influence of sensationalized journalism on one's choices.
Or are you just a mass consumer of popular opinion
Are you simply conforming to widely accepted opinions without critical thought?
We've been organized to think and feel a lie
We've been conditioned to believe and feel falsehoods.
And if you're thirsty for some truth
If you crave truth, it resides within you, waiting to be acknowledged.
There's a fucking fountain inside of you
Emphasizing the abundance of truth within oneself, ready to be embraced.
Overflowing by the seconds to flood
The truth within is overwhelming, seeking to fill the emptiness in life.
You're empty life
Your life is devoid of meaning without embracing the inner truth.
Sharpen out the dullness you've been programmed
Eliminate the mundane aspects imposed by societal programming.
To deny
Reject the dullness enforced upon you and confront the truth.
You look to groups and movements and counter
Looking towards societal groups and movements to validate intelligence.
Culture sects
Justifying one's intelligence through association with counterculture.
To justify yourself as being intelligent
Being part of a scene or philosophy doesn't automatically make one radical or significant.
Buckled tightly to a scene,
Being firmly attached to a specific subculture or philosophy.
Safely pinned to a philosophy
Feeling secure in a particular belief system.
Doesn't make you radical or even significant
Mere adherence to a scene or philosophy doesn't make one truly radical or important.
As you parade through the glitz
Parading through the glamour without genuine uniqueness or significance.
Nose high in the air
Arrogance and a false sense of individuality while navigating through life.
You swear you're painting your own picture
Believing you're crafting your own narrative, though it might not be the case.
But it's a shame that you can't do it
Regrettable that the individual may struggle to genuinely express themselves.
