Navigating Life's Turbulence: 'r u really ok' by Fraeulein Astrid
Lyrics
Are you really ok
Expressing concern about someone's emotional state.
I was just wondering because it doesn't look that way
Observing that the person doesn't seem okay based on appearance.
Do you feel the same
Inquiring if the person shares similar feelings.
About the world's weight on your shoulders
Addressing the pressure and burden of global issues.
Expectations of
Referring to societal expectations.
How you're supposed to look and act
Highlighting the pressure to conform in appearance and behavior.
Wanting to be different
Expressing a desire to be unique or different.
But also wanting to fit in
Acknowledging the conflicting desire to fit in.
I am back
Announcing a return to a previous state or mindset.
In my old home
Returning to a familiar place.
Because I lost track of where I'm from
Explaining the reason for the return – losing track of origin.
The world just kept spinning
Describing the relentless pace of the world.
And everything is going too fast
Expressing a feeling of things moving too quickly.
I am back
Reiterating a return to face oneself.
To face myself
Facing personal challenges or introspection.
Because I lost track of where to go
Explaining the reason for facing oneself – losing direction.
The walls are getting closer
Sensing a sense of confinement or pressure.
And everything is going too fast
Reiterating the feeling of the world moving too fast.
Are you really ok
Repeating the inquiry about emotional well-being.
I was just wondering because we're going through a lot
Linking the lack of okayness to shared challenges.
Do you feel the same
Asking if the person relates to the fear of disappointing family.
About not wanting to disappoint your folks
Referring to familial expectations.
Expectations of
Discussing the pressure regarding one's future.
How your future has to look
Expressing the desire to break away from societal norms.
Wanting to be different
Reiterating the conflict of wanting to stand out.
But also wanting to fit in
Acknowledging the simultaneous desire to fit in.
I am back
Repeating the return to a previous state.
In my old home
Returning to a familiar place, emphasizing continuity.
Because I lost track of where I'm from
Reiterating the reason for the return – losing track of origin.
The world just kept spinning
Reiterating the relentless spin of the world.
And everything is going too fast
Emphasizing the overwhelming speed of everything.
I am back
Repeating the return to face oneself.
To face myself
Continuing the process of facing personal challenges.
Because I lost track of where to go
Reiterating the reason for facing oneself – losing direction.
The walls are getting closer
Re-emphasizing the feeling of walls closing in.
And everything is going too fast
Reiterating the overwhelming speed of everything.
Going too fast
Highlighting the speed of events as too rapid.
Going too fast
(Repetition for emphasis)
Going too fast
-Going too fast
-Going too fast
