Reasons
Finding Redemption: Unveiling the Meaning Behind Joel Woods' 'Reasons'
Lyrics
Feeling like I got a reason I know
Expressing a sense of having a purpose or justification that is known.
There must be a reason for sipping the poison that's filling these bottles
Belief that there must be a rationale for consuming harmful substances contained in bottles.
There must be a reason for fading away and not facing my problems, problems
Assuming there is a cause for withdrawing and avoiding confronting personal issues or challenges.
And I can always stop it
Confidence in the ability to cease the negative behavior.
Least that's what I tell myself
Self-assurance or self-reassurance about the capability to stop the behavior.
Might be overconfident
Possibly having excessive confidence or faith in stopping the behavior.
'Cause I can't even shake it off
Unable to shake off or get rid of the behavior despite claimed confidence.
But I still got my reasons even
Despite being influenced by these reasons, they are still acknowledged.
Though they got a hold of me
The reasons have a strong hold or control over the individual.
Here we go now
Transitioning into the next phase or action.
Hope I don't drown
Expressing a fear of being overwhelmed or suffocated by circumstances.
Reel me in
Metaphorically asking for assistance or help.
I don't swim
Not being adept or comfortable in handling certain situations.
Well it's way too deep
Symbolizing the depth or complexity of the situation or problem.
Things you say
Words spoken or advice given are disregarded or ignored.
Just float away
Words or advice don't have a lasting impact or influence.
You know talk is cheap
Emphasizing that spoken words alone are not enough.
And I've got angels watching me, yeah
Belief in having spiritual or protective guidance.
I know, 'cause when i'm faded and fall asleep they're in my dreams, dreams
Perceiving the presence of guardians in dreams while in an altered state.
Wake up, you're calling my name
Waking up from the dream where the name is being called.
Baby, it's always the same
Recognition that the situation is repetitive or unchanging.
You know that I wanna change my ways, my ways
Desire or intention to alter behavior or habits.
Don't let go, just hold on
Encouragement to hold on and not give up.
Give me some more time
Request for more time to address or resolve issues.
Here we go now

Feeling like I got a reason to grow
Suggesting an inclination or motivation for personal development or progress.
