Unshackling Identity: Embracing Authenticity Amidst Constraints
Lyrics
Have you ever been dumb enough to do what you wanted to do
Reflecting on past actions or decisions made impulsively without careful consideration.
Without good reason coming over you?
Questioning the absence of a valid or justified motive behind impulsive actions.
Have you ever been young enough to feel what you wanted to feel?
Recalling the experience of youthful emotions and desires.
Take back those years for something real
Expressing a desire to reclaim lost time for something meaningful.
I'm an iron rooster
Describing oneself metaphorically as an unyielding and enduring entity.
Cold and still
Portraying a sense of emotional coldness and stillness.
Irregular sculpture
Comparing oneself to an irregular sculpture, possibly signifying uniqueness or imperfection.
Held against my will
Suggesting a feeling of being constrained or restrained against one's will.
Have you ever been drunk enough to say what you wanted to say
Reflecting on a state of inebriation where inhibitions are lowered, allowing candid expression.
Without no words getting in the way?
Desiring open communication without the interference of unnecessary words.
Have you ever been in love enough to be who you wanted to be?
Recalling the intensity of being in love and the freedom to be one's true self.
I won't mind you if you won't mind me
Expressing a willingness to accept each other without judgment or interference.

Can you believe we're older?
Pondering the disbelief in the aging process.
I won't believe it's over now
Expressing a refusal to accept that something is ending.
Do you remember being children?
Eliciting memories of childhood and the innocence associated with it.
Do you remember when?
Asking if the listener remembers a specific moment from the past.
Now
