Honest
Unveiling Truth: Jillette Johnson's Candid Journey Through Honesty
Lyrics
I'm a phoenix out of ashes
I have risen from adversity like a phoenix.
I keep running out of matches
I repeatedly find myself lacking resources or solutions.
I keep burning bridges down and building
I destroy relationships but strive to rebuild them.
Back up from the ground
I rise again after hitting rock bottom.
All I really wanna be is more honest
I aspire to be more truthful and transparent.
All I really wanna be is more honest
Reiteration of the desire for increased honesty.
But I need but I need but I need
I have needs, and I acknowledge them.
I always believed that that was irrelevant
I used to think my needs were unimportant.
I believed I believed I believed
I strongly held the belief that my needs were detrimental.
That somehow my needs would be a detriment
My needs were seen as a potential harm or disadvantage.
All I really wanna be is
I want to be genuinely honest.
More than less honest honest
I aim to be more honest rather than less.
I keep making myself smaller
I diminish myself in various ways.
Are you feeling any taller?
Asking if this self-deprecation affects someone positively.
If I go down any lower I'm afraid
Fear of becoming so low that the real self remains hidden.
You'll never know the real me
Fear that the true self will be concealed if I go lower.
All I really wanna be is more honest
Reiteration of the desire for increased honesty.
All I really wanna be is more honest
-But I need but I need but I need
I acknowledge my needs, emphasizing their importance.
I always believed that that was irrelevant
I used to consider my needs as insignificant.
I believed I believed I believed
I strongly believed my needs were detrimental.
That somehow my needs would be a detriment
My needs were believed to be a potential harm.
All I really wanna be is
I want to be genuinely honest.
More than less honest honest, honest, honest
Reiteration of the desire for increased honesty, emphasizing sincerity.
All I really wanna be is more than less
I aspire to be more than just minimally honest.
Honest
Final emphasis on the desire for increased honesty.
