Embracing Life's Wake: JW Francis' New York Anthem
Lyrics
I'll sleep when dead I go, I go, I go, I go, I go x 2
I'll sleep when dead; expressing a determination to live fully and not waste time.
I'm losing life at least I'm here it's real I'm real
Acknowledging the challenges in life but finding value in being present and real.
I'll sleep when dead I go, I go, I go, I go, I go
Reiteration of the determination to live fully despite uncertainties.
The best me
Reflecting on the best aspects of oneself.
The worst me
Acknowledging the worst aspects of oneself.
Am I
Raising a question about self-identity and existence.
Am I just my dreams, am I just my dreams Amnesia, insomnia
Questioning whether one is defined by their dreams; mentioning memory and sleep disorders.
I was with ya, I was with ya, I was with ya, I was with ya In the fall, ambition calls
Recalling a past connection in the autumn and the influence of ambition.
You write your story on your skin
Metaphorically suggesting that one's life story is written on their skin.
Mine's in my head
Indicating that the storyteller's narrative is in their thoughts rather than visible.
We could co-direct, we could co-direct, we could co-direct, we could
Suggesting the possibility of shared direction in life.
I feel it in myself
Expressing a sense of self-awareness and a connection to personal feelings.
I feel it in myself
Reiterating a personal awareness and introspection.
And it won't be long
Anticipating a change or progression in oneself.
No it won't be long away
Emphasizing that the awaited change will happen soon.
AAAAHHHHH AAAAAHHHH
Expressing a primal or intense emotion, possibly signifying a powerful realization.
I feel it in myself
Repeating the earlier sense of self-awareness and internal recognition.
I feel it in myself
Reiterating a personal sense of awareness and connection with oneself.
And it won't be long
Anticipating an upcoming change or development in one's self.
No it won't be long away
Emphasizing that the awaited change will happen soon.
