Hear Me Out
Wrestling with Self, Finding Redemption
Lyrics
VERSE 1
Introduction of the first verse
I have seen, a pattern in the ways of all my trying
Observation of a consistent pattern in personal efforts
A godless motivation keeps on failing
Noticed lack of divine inspiration leading to repeated failures
No matter what, it feels so empty.
Expressing emptiness despite varied attempts
The strangest thing, in this valley we already know about this
Acknowledging familiarity with struggles in the metaphorical valley
In the end our motivation becomes pointless
Realization that motivation often becomes futile in the end
So you’ll see it’s wasted again!
Highlighting the repetition and futility of wasted motivation
PRECHORUS 1
Introduction of the first pre-chorus
And all that time alone, of vying for the throne it all had left cold yeah
Reflecting on a past period of isolation and ambition
And I need to know that it’s all said and done
Expressing the need for closure and resolution
CHORUS
Transition to the chorus
So hear me out, oh hear me out
Requesting attention to a sincere plea
I’ve never seen a thing I’ve done alone ever amount to much now
Admitting the lack of significant achievements when working alone
VERSE
Introduction of the second verse
Like an art, without a muse it seems so empty and perplexing
Comparing life without purpose to art without inspiration
No teacher, what’s the point of even learning?
Questioning the value of learning without guidance
I see my failures in the light of Him
Acknowledging personal failures in the light of a divine figure
So why would you, ever attempt to wander off all on your own now?
Discouraging independent ventures and advocating for guidance
A guide is getting you out of the woods now
Emphasizing the role of a guide in navigating challenges
So that ego is wasting away
Highlighting the diminishing impact of ego
And all that time trying I kept lying to myself I needed hope and
Confession of self-deception and the need for hope
I needed him to come and pick me up
Expressing reliance on a higher power for support
So hear me out, hear me out
Reiteration of the plea for attention
Ive never seen a thing I’ve done alone ever amount to much now
Repeating the acknowledgment of limited achievements alone
So hear me out, hear me out
Reiteration of the plea for attention
It’s time to put that lying heart to rest for its final bow
Declaring the need to end deceitful behaviors
I’ve never been so clear about the failing perseverance of my own desolate heart
Expressing clarity about personal struggles and failures
Every time we think we’ve handled all of our iniquities, we wind up back at the start
Recognizing the cyclical nature of addressing one's shortcomings
Oh and I was sick of trying all these motivated travesties,
Weary of futile efforts but acknowledging divine assistance
But he’s seen me through it all
Gratitude for guidance through challenges
So when will we all learn that, it’s nothing we can earn, but instead it’s giving up all. So hear me out
Emphasizing the importance of surrendering rather than earning
