Unveiling Stride: A Journey of Liberation and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
She knew from the way
She could tell by the manner or indications
The promise was breaking
A commitment or assurance was falling apart or not being kept
She would pay uh-huh
She would suffer consequences or face repercussions
Hurting from mistakes
Experiencing pain due to errors or wrongdoings
Of all she had pardoned
Mistakes that she had forgiven or excused
Looking the other way mm-hmm
Deliberately ignoring or disregarding something
Trusting that in time
Believing that eventually things would improve
These things would be fine
These issues would resolve over time
And settle as they may uh-huh
And accept the outcome regardless
But not to her surprise
Not unexpectedly to her
He'd never been trying
He had never put effort into loving her
To love her, now she says
Now acknowledging his lack of affection
Darling, so I'll walk
Expressing determination to keep moving forward
One step in front of the other
Continuing despite difficulties
Don't get caught up in my stride
Not letting oneself be hindered by setbacks
Darling, so I'll walk
Reaffirming the commitment to progress
One step in front of the other
Continuing to move forward without hesitation
I ain't turning for goodbyes uh-huh
Refusing to stop for farewells
Simple was the plan
The plan she devised was straightforward
She made for escaping
To get away from past troubles
problems of the past uh-huh
Challenges or issues that occurred previously
Packing up her bags
Gathering her belongings to leave
Running low on her patience
Running out of patience
Slamming on the gas mm-hmm
Accelerating away quickly
Wondering why she stayed
Questioning her decision to stay in the past
Replaying the pain
Replaying the emotional distress
Spending hours wide awake uh-huh
Spending significant time awake, likely due to distress
Picking up her pace
Increasing her speed
Bout time for a change
It's time for a significant change
To pull away and say
To distance herself and express
Darling so I'll walk
Expressing determination to keep moving forward
One step in front of the other
Continuing despite difficulties
Don't get caught up in my stride
Not letting oneself be hindered by setbacks
Darling so I'll walk
Reaffirming the commitment to progress
One step in front of the other
Continuing to move forward without hesitation
I ain't turning for goodbyes uh-huh
Refusing to stop for farewells
Is this all you can give
Asking if that's all the effort or emotion available
Don't know what I was hoping for
Uncertain of expectations but realizing dissatisfaction
I won't live this way no more I'm
Refusing to continue living in this manner
Putting myself first
Prioritizing her own needs and well-being
Darling so I'll walk
Expressing determination to keep moving forward
One step in front of the other
Continuing despite difficulties
Don't get caught up in my stride
Not letting oneself be hindered by setbacks
Darling so I'll walk
Reaffirming the commitment to progress
One step in front of the other
Continuing to move forward without hesitation
I ain't turning for goodbyes uh-huh
Refusing to stop for farewells
