West
Chasing West: A Journey through Choices and Reflections
Lyrics
We can run around but we're running out of options
We are engaging in various activities, but our options are becoming limited.
No I asked you first, why you switch the topic
I asked a question first, why did you change the subject?
Playin' phone tag got me wondering if you rock with me
Playing a game of phone tag, I'm uncertain if you are interested in me.
Playin' phone tag got me buggin' need to stop this
Continuing to play phone tag is bothering me, and I need to end this communication pattern.
Sleeping on a plane, not a jet
Resting on a plane, not a jet.
I don't got no plans I just know i'm headed west
I have no specific plans, but I know I'm headed west.
And i'm thinking 'bout you
I'm contemplating about you.
Head on the big man shoulders to my left
I lean on the shoulders of a significant person to my left.
I've been MIA
I've been missing in action.
Pops hit the rock like a Bigman
My father faced challenges bravely, like a significant figure.
Pops hit the rock no sport
My father faced challenges without engaging in sports.
I know they all saying i'm a dork
Others label me as a socially awkward person.
Simon cookie lookin' boy
Comparing me to a stereotypical character, but I have skills on the basketball court.
But they don't wanna see me on the court
People underestimate my abilities on the basketball court.
We can run the ones 'til we bored
We can engage in one-on-one basketball games until we become bored.
Pew pew, hit 'em with the ray
Mimicking a shooting sound, using a ray as a metaphor.
Make 'em disappear like faith
Making someone disappear figuratively, like losing faith in them.
Tryna get black like blade
Attempting to become powerful and confident like the fictional character Blade.
Tryna get back like paid
Striving to return to a prosperous state, similar to being paid well.
I feel like we did more when we had less
I believe we achieved more when we had fewer resources.
Now we got more, now we got stress
Now that we have more, we also have more stress.
Tastes better when it's just made
Things are more enjoyable when they are freshly made.
Tastes better when you do your thing
Success is more enjoyable when you pursue your passions.
Imma shake it off like tay
I will overcome difficulties and challenges, like Taylor Swift shaking off negativity.
See me in the air MJ
Visualizing myself in the air, similar to Michael Jordan's iconic moves.
Sleeping on a plane, not a jet
Resting on a plane, not a jet (repeated).
I don't got no plans I just know i'm headed west
I have no specific plans, but I know I'm headed west (repeated).
And i'm thinking 'bout you
I'm contemplating about you (repeated).
Head on the big man shoulders to my left
Leaning on the shoulders of a significant person to my left (repeated).
I've been MIA
I've been missing in action (repeated).
I wanna take the halo from my head, put it down 'round my neck
I want to remove the image of perfection from my head and acknowledge my flaws.
I wanna take the halo from my head, put it down 'round my neck
I want to recognize my imperfections and not strive for unattainable perfection.
I probably let myself down, Manzanita branch
I admit to disappointing myself, like a Manzanita branch.
I probably let myself down every now and again
I acknowledge occasional self-disappointment.
I wanna take the halo from my head, put it down 'round my neck
