I PROMiSE
Unbreakable Love: LiL BO WEEP's Promise of True Devotion
Lyrics
Hold me close and hold me fast
Expressing a desire for emotional closeness and intimacy.
Tell me that our love will last
Seeking assurance that the love shared will endure over time.
And even if it's in your brain
Acknowledging the presence of emotional struggles or challenges.
Tell me that you'll keep me sane
Requesting a commitment to provide stability and mental well-being.
I know I'm messy at those times
Admitting personal flaws or imperfections during certain situations.
I know it's hard to feel divine
Acknowledging the difficulty in feeling a higher, spiritual connection.
I know your fearing what is wrong
Acknowledging fears and concerns about what could go wrong.
And that's why we just write these songs
Using songwriting as a therapeutic outlet to address and cope with fears.
I hope you know I mean my words
Affirming the sincerity and truthfulness of the expressed feelings.
Even when you feel it hurts
Emphasizing commitment even during challenging or painful times.
I won't break you like they did
Promising not to cause emotional harm as others may have done.
And I won't shame you like they did
Promising not to subject the partner to shame as experienced before.
And I won't change myself for you
Rejecting the idea of changing oneself for the sake of the relationship.
I will make sure I stay true
Committing to authenticity and remaining true to oneself.
Even if it falls through
Expressing determination to remain true even if the relationship faces challenges.
I promise I'll protect you
Promising to protect the partner from harm or distress.
Because I know that I love you
Affirming love as a driving force behind the commitment.
I won't brеak you like they did
Reiterating the commitment not to cause emotional harm as others may have done.
And I won't shame you likе they did
Reiterating the commitment not to subject the partner to shame.
And I won't change myself for you
Reiterating the rejection of changing oneself for the relationship.
I will make sure I stay true
Reaffirming the commitment to authenticity and staying true.
