Pride
Navigating Shadows: Kelsey Waldon's Pride Unveiled
Lyrics
I don't know who I am
Uncertainty about self-identity and a lack of concern about it.
And I can't even say I give a damn
Expressing indifference or apathy towards caring about one's own identity.
When did I not know what to say?
Reflecting on moments of speechlessness or an inability to articulate thoughts.
When did my colors sway?
Questioning a time when personal beliefs or values were not steadfast.
And I know I can't go on actin' this way
Acknowledging the need for a change in behavior or attitude.
This guitar smells like smoke
Associating the guitar with a smoky environment, possibly indicating a rough or challenging lifestyle.
And lately I'm feelin' like a joke
Feeling like a joke suggests a sense of humor or resilience in the face of difficulties.
I go find another bar
Seeking solace or distraction in a bar setting.
Find somewhere to leave my car
Attempting to escape or distance oneself from current circumstances.
Seems like these sleepless nights, sometimes, don't get you very far
Expressing frustration that sleepless nights may not lead to meaningful progress.
But don't let it get you down
Encouraging resilience and not letting challenging times affect one's spirit.
You know bad times come around
Acknowledging the inevitability of difficult periods in life.
Everybody's felt like a stranger in their own town
Highlighting the universal experience of feeling like a stranger in one's own hometown.
My mama said that I was tough
Recalling a maternal affirmation of personal strength or resilience.
She said I had it in my blood
Suggesting that toughness is inherent, possibly passed down through family.
So just stand right up tall
Encouraging standing tall and facing challenges with confidence.
Don't worry about nothin' at all
Promoting a carefree attitude and not worrying about life's challenges.
You know sometimes when you can't run you've just got to crawl
Emphasizing the need to persevere, even if progress is slow.
