Lyrics

I've got some things that I need to say

I have some important things to express.

Some of it might just be better off left unsaid

Some of these thoughts may be better left unspoken.

About the way things look to me

Reflecting on my perspective of things.

The air is so dirty around

There's a pervasive pollution in the air.

So thick that I can't see

The pollution is so thick that visibility is impaired.

Will I ever make the right decision

Uncertainty about making correct decisions.

Will I ever make up my own mind

Struggling to form my own opinions.

My life is movin to fast I gotta get my head down out of the clouds

Life is moving too quickly; need to be more grounded.

And get my feet back on the ground

A commitment to bring myself back to reality.

I took a step just to make a change

Took a step for change, but faced unexpected challenges.

Now my trees are gone and there's concrete in my way

Consequences of change: loss of nature to urbanization.

But it's a fact to me that no matter what I see

Despite challenges, the essence of my roots remains.

Kentucky bluegrass runs through my veins

Deep connection to Kentucky represented in my essence.

Is it only in my mind

Questioning if certain experiences are only in my mind.

Or is it like this all the time

Wondering if the challenging situation is constant.

Ya got room for standards

Facing societal standards that may not accommodate me.

No room for me

Feeling excluded or not fitting into established norms.

Will I ever make the right decision

Continuing struggle to make the right decisions.

Will I ever make up my own mind

Internal conflict regarding forming personal opinions.

My life is movin to fast I gotta get my head down out of the clouds

A need to slow down and reevaluate life choices.

And get my feet back on the ground

Committing to reconnect with reality and be grounded.

I had to find out for myself

Independently seeking my own path.

I had to go out and look for my own way

Actively searching for a unique and personal direction.

Ya know I finally found the truth floatin along a breeze with yesterday

Discovering the truth through introspection and reflection on the past.

I think I finally made the right decision

Believing that I've finally made a positive decision.

I think I finally made up my mind

Confident in having reached a resolution within myself.

When my life is movin too fast I just take a step back and look around

In moments of chaos, taking a step back to assess and ground myself.

And put my feet back on the ground

Reaffirming the commitment to be rooted in reality.

Put my feet back on the ground

Consistently keeping myself grounded in life.
