Betting On Us
Betting On Us: Defying Limits and Taking Risks
Lyrics
Oh no, oh no
Expressing concern or surprise
This foreign interest, man, they're running my business
External interests are controlling my business affairs
They say I've gone too far
Received criticism for going too far
The conditions worsened and clouded my vision
Challenges have made it hard to see clearly
They say I wanted too much
Accusation of desiring too much
Thought about it for a minute and I came to the decision
After reflection, accepting the possibility of being in the wrong
That they're probably right
Accepting the likelihood of others being right
I'm tired of waiting
Feeling impatient from waiting too long
And I want it too much
Strong desire for something
And so I'm stepping on up to the plate
Deciding to take action and face challenges
And I'm betting on us all the way
Committing to a risky endeavor and relying on 'us'
The check engages, man, they come in the stages
Payment or support arrives in stages
They say they won't give up
Determination not to give up despite challenges
They've been clocking my numbers
Monitoring of progress or achievements
But I'm working the summers
Working hard during favorable times
'Cause I want it so much
Intense desire for something
I was down in the trenches, doing my time
Previous struggles followed by aiming high
Now I'm swinging for the fences, it's all on the line
Taking a big risk with potential high stakes
And I'm nervous and shaking
Feeling anxious and nervous
Tired, impatient
Exhausted and unable to wait any longer
And I want to go home
Longing to return home or find comfort
But no, I'm stepping on up to the plate
Despite hesitation, taking the challenge
And I'm betting on us all the way
Committing to the risky venture again
I'm not betting on luck, no
Rejecting reliance on luck, emphasizing determination
It's just a lie, it's just a lie, just a lie
Dismissing the idea that luck plays a role
'Cause I've been waiting forever
Endurance through a prolonged waiting period
But I know I can get it if I want it so much
Confidence in achieving desires through determination
So I'm betting on us
Placing faith and confidence in 'us'
That's right, I'm betting on us
Reaffirmation of trust and reliance on 'us'
I'm betting on us
Repeating commitment and reliance on 'us'
Betting on us
Continued belief and trust in 'us'
I'm betting on us
Reiterating trust and reliance on 'us'
That's right, I'm betting on us, yeah
Emphasizing reliance and belief in 'us'
All the way, yeah
Committing to 'us' wholeheartedly
All the way, all the way
Emphasizing full commitment to 'us'
Betting on us
Reiteration of placing faith and trust in 'us'
Stepping up
Preparing to face challenges head-on
Goddammit, what am I waiting for?
Expressing frustration about delay and uncertainty
Oh no, betting on us
Committing to 'us' despite doubts or concerns
Set it up
Preparation and determination to act despite hesitation
Shame on me, what am I waiting for?
Self-criticism for delaying action despite knowing better
