Lone Child
Wild Independence: Embracing Uniqueness
Lyrics
I don't like you much
I don't hold a favorable opinion of you.
I am like a wolf
I possess characteristics similar to those of a wolf, possibly denoting independence or wildness.
I'm not full of your hate
I'm not filled with the hatred you may expect or project onto me.
I'm full of my grace
I'm filled with my own dignity or elegance.
See in my face
Observe and recognize in my expression or countenance.
I am a king
I possess qualities or a sense of authority akin to a king.
See the empty stage
Notice the absence of performance or action on the stage.
See there's nothing there
There's nothing present or happening there.
Save your ounce of despair
Keep your small amount of hopelessness.
Your once wasted air
Your previously wasted breath or effort.
Your devil-may-care poisonings
Your reckless or carefree harmful behaviors.
Lone child, born wild
A solitary child, born with an untamed nature.
No childish things
No longer interested in typical or immature things associated with childhood.
Lone child, born wild
A lone child, born with an innate wildness.
No tribal strings
Not bound by societal or cultural ties or obligations.
I'll be moving on
I will be progressing forward.
Creeping off the stage
Gradually departing from the performance or scene.
I'll be tearing you out
I will be removing you forcefully.
Tearing you down
Dismantling or breaking you down.
I'm growling now
I'm expressing anger or hostility now.
In the wings
Within the unseen area of preparation or waiting to act.
Lone child, born wild
A solitary child, inherently wild.
No childish things
No longer involved in childish behaviors.
Lone child, born wild
A lone child, born wild, free from attachments or influences of a particular group or community.
No tribal strings
Not confined by societal or cultural restrictions.
