Never Mind
Navigating Life's Turbulence: Kenny Wayne Shepherd's 'Never Mind' Meaning
Lyrics
Top of the world, ought a feel better
Feeling great or on top of one's game should provide a sense of improvement.
Bottom sure come at you a whole lot faster
Life's challenges or difficulties can unexpectedly and quickly overwhelm.
Can you keep a secret I'll tell you
Asking if someone can keep a secret before sharing information.
Still didn't get the answers where I'm standing
Despite seeking answers, there's still uncertainty or lack of clarity from the current perspective.
'Cause I get a little shook sometimes
Experiencing moments of insecurity or anxiety.
And I thought maybe you could tell me why
Seeking guidance or an explanation from someone else.
Never mind
Dismissing the need for an explanation or reassurance, indicating it's not important anymore.
So long torn in all directions
Feeling torn and pulled in different directions.
Tossed and turned is how I am feeling
Experiencing inner turmoil and restlessness.
Tell you everything
Willingness to share everything, including dreams and aspirations.
All about what I've been dreamin'
Desire to express one's thoughts and aspirations.
Let go, domino, fall down, however I'm leavin'
Letting go and leaving, regardless of the consequences or outcomes.
And I get a little shook sometimes
Continued experience of insecurity or uncertainty.
And I thought maybe you could tell me why
Seeking an explanation or understanding from someone else.
Oh, it's alright baby...never mind
Comforting oneself that everything is fine, indicating a lack of need for an explanation.
Top of the world, it used to look better
Reflecting on how things appeared better in the past when feeling successful or content.
Down low ain't no vertigo spin me 'round faster
Lower points in life don’t induce dizziness as quickly as high points do.
'Cause I just get a little shook sometimes
Continued experiences of insecurity or uncertainty, seeking explanation.
And I thought maybe you could tell me why
Seeking clarification or understanding from someone else.
Oh that's alright baby
Reassuring oneself that it's okay, dismissing the need for an explanation.
