Umbrella
Navigating Change: Green Seas' Melody of Resistance and Isolated Benevolence
Lyrics
I'm not that old but the world has changed so much
I may not be old, but I've witnessed significant changes in the world.
I'm going to hold my ground
I will stand my ground and not yield.
(don't you let it go)
(Encouragement not to let go of convictions or principles.)
Scheduled events that eat up all my free time
Scheduled events are taking up all my free time.
I'm going to overthrow
I intend to rebel against these time-consuming obligations.
(all I've come to know)
(Challenging what has become familiar or routine.)
Imaginations and ideas get standardized
Imaginations and ideas are becoming standardized or mainstream.
Your issues become mine
Other people's problems are becoming my own.
(such a foolish show)
(Commenting on the foolishness of this dynamic.)
Our mental health has gone up in flames though I
Mental health is deteriorating, although I've felt the same for years.
Have felt the same for years
(Acknowledging a sense of fortune despite personal struggles.)
(fortunate, I know)
(Blank line, possibly indicating a pause or reflection.)
Isolated benevolence
Expressing a sense of isolated kindness or goodwill.
I'm still waiting on Paul
Waiting for someone named Paul, possibly a metaphor for unfulfilled expectations.
Claw your way to the mountaintop and see it all
Struggling to reach the pinnacle and gain a comprehensive view of everything.
Don't be afraid to fall
Encouragement not to fear failure in the pursuit of goals.
Umbrella hold me
Desire for an "umbrella" to provide protection or solace.
Take me away from here
Expressing a wish to be taken away from the current challenging or unfamiliar situation.
Strange place this has become
Reflecting on the current state of the world as a strange place.
