Praying
Rising from Flames: Embracing Strength and Redemption
Lyrics
Well, you almost had me fooled
Expressing deception or betrayal, feeling almost fooled by someone.
Told me that I was nothing without you
Being told that one is nothing without the person addressed in the lyrics.
Oh, and after everything you've done
Reflecting on the negative actions or behavior of the addressed person.
I can thank you for how strong I have become
Grateful for the strength gained as a result of overcoming challenges caused by the addressed person.
'Cause you brought the flames and you know it too well
Acknowledging the hardships brought by the addressed person.
I had to learn how to fight for myself
Learning to be independent and fight for oneself due to the challenges faced.
And we both know all the truth I could tell
Both parties aware of the truth, with the speaker choosing to bid farewell.
I'll just say this is I wish you farewell
Expressing a farewell wish to the addressed person.
I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
Wishing or hoping that the addressed person is praying, possibly for self-reflection or change.
I hope your soul is changin', changin'
Expressing hope for a positive transformation in the soul of the addressed person.
I hope you find your peace
Wishing for the addressed person to find peace.
Falling on your knees, prayin'
Imagining the addressed person falling on their knees in prayer.
I'm proud of who I am
Expressing pride in one's identity and personal growth.
No more monsters, I can breathe again
Claiming freedom from past challenges, feeling able to breathe again.
And you said that I was done
Rejecting a statement that the speaker is done; indicating resilience.
Well, you were wrong and now the best is yet to come
Contradicting a prediction of failure and anticipating a positive future.
You brought the flames and you know it too well
Reiterating the challenges brought by the addressed person.
I had to learn how to fight for myself
Continuing the theme of self-reliance and learning to fight for oneself.
And we both know all the truth I could tell
Acknowledging shared knowledge of the truth between both parties.
I'll just say this is I wish you farewell
Repeating the farewell sentiment, expressing closure.
I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
Reiterating the hope that the addressed person is praying.
I hope your soul is changin', changin'
Continuing the hope for positive changes in the soul of the addressed person.
I hope you find your peace
Repeating the wish for the addressed person to find peace.
Falling on your knees, prayin'
Imagining the addressed person in a humble position of prayer.
