Lyrics
Oh you see me but you don't
Feeling observed but not truly understood
Know me
Expressing a sense of being unknown or unseen
All the nights that I cried
Reflecting on nights filled with tears
Darling hold me
Seeking comfort and emotional support
Nublanuinya wonye
Words in a language that may convey deeper emotions
So please
Requesting understanding and empathy
Don't just sit there and judge
Discouraging judgmental attitudes
On me
Asking not to pass quick judgments
Life ain't easy
Acknowledging life's challenges
It gets to me
Expressing the impact of difficulties on the speaker
Oh I try
Acknowledging effort and perseverance
Yes I try
Emphasizing the continuous struggle
To be all the things that you want of me
Desire to meet expectations but facing challenges
But to bend oh to bend
Acknowledging the difficulty of compromise
Hurts so fucking deep
Expressing emotional pain from compromise
So I learned to defend
Learning to protect oneself from harm
All of my needs
Emphasizing the importance of self-preservation
Got to maintain
Stressing the necessity to sustain oneself
All of my need
Reiterating the importance of personal well-being
So I got to defend all of my needs
Underlining the need to defend personal needs
I got to maintain my memory
Highlighting the importance of preserving memories
All of my needs
Reaffirming the significance of personal needs
So I learned to defend
Continuation of the theme of self-protection
All of my needs
Reiterating the importance of defending personal needs
