Lemonade
Sipping Wisdom in Lemonade: Unveiling Life's Choices Through Song
Lyrics
If survival came to electing bait
If faced with the choice of selecting bait for survival
Just as it's seeming to today
Especially in the context of the present moment
I'd say take all or no one
Suggesting a preference for taking everything or nothing
And if the speed of man
Referring to the pace or progress of humanity
Should be quicker than
Implying that the pace should exceed
The coldest creek
Comparing it to the chilliest stream
Then you seek yourself out a new one
Encouraging self-discovery in a new direction
We'll still raise and reap
Despite challenges, continuing to nurture and harvest
In the clouded heat
In the midst of confusion or obscurity
So give me hideable
Desiring concealable qualities
But also prone to aging
Yet susceptible to the effects of aging
Even on a sunny, sunny day
Even during the brightness of a sunny day
Well, I don't have a problem
Expressing a lack of concern or difficulty
Hiding in a cabin
Finding refuge in seclusion, possibly a cabin
Thumbing through the better books
Engaging with intellectually superior literature
And drinking
Indulging in the act of drinking
Drinking lemonade
Specifically, consuming lemonade
I knew a girl
Recalling a female acquaintance
We worked the dirt
Both involved in cultivating the soil
But the only word she knew
Limited vocabulary, focused on self-identity
Was her own name
Describing physical movements and intentions
She'd twist and turn
Engaging in manipulative actions
And scheme and stir
Scheming and stirring, possibly metaphorical
But she got rope burn
Suffering consequences from attempting manipulation
By trying to pull out my braid
An incident involving a failed attempt to pull a braid
And comes a time
Indicating a certain period
Even if you deny
Even if one refuses to acknowledge
You've got to find the line
The necessity to establish boundaries
Before it's drawn right on your forehead
Recognizing a point of no return
'Cause none of this is going to go away
Acknowledging the persistent nature of challenges
But I don't have a problem
Reiterating a lack of difficulty or concern
Hiding in a cabin
Choosing seclusion as a coping mechanism
Thumbing through the better books
Engaging with intellectually superior literature (repeated)
And drinking
Indulging in the act of drinking (repeated)
Drinking lemonade
Specifically, consuming lemonade (repeated)
