Harvest
Harvesting Redemption: A Journey from Fool to Freedom
Lyrics
Well I've analyzed and I've agonized
Reflecting on and examining experiences
I put my self through the paces, I know
Subjecting oneself to challenges and difficulties
And I've pulverized my mind, then compromised
Struggling mentally and making compromises
Til' I was left with a fraudulent soul
Ending up with a fake or insincere soul
I'm not ever going back
Commitment to not revisiting a past, negative state
To that shell of myself
Rejecting a former, less authentic self
I'm staying intact
Determined to remain whole and genuine
I took to a high road to make amends, I suppose
Choosing a morally superior path for reconciliation
(It turns out I was the fool)
Realizing previous foolishness
There's no point of alibis
Avoiding excuses or justifications
(You can't turn back the hands of time)
Understanding the irreversibility of time
My feet are moving, my soles dig in the ground
Moving forward with determination
Full steam ahead and I've got pavement to pound
Full commitment to a purpose with obstacles to overcome
The sky's full of sunshine, until the night
Positive outlook, despite challenges at night
Where I could harvest the stars
Metaphorical reference to achieving great things
Well I've recognized, that I pseudo-advertised
Acknowledging false self-representation
I was lost and spinning out of control
Feeling lost and out of control
Always half inspired, more smoke than fire
Lacking genuine inspiration, more appearance than substance
Body laid up and dragged through the coals
Suffering and enduring hardships
I'm not living like that
Rejecting a life lacking authenticity
I'd rather be dead
Prefer death over a compromised existence
I'm staying intact
Determined to remain genuine and true
I took to a high road to make amends, I suppose
Choosing a morally superior path for reconciliation (repeated)
(It turns out I was the fool)
Realizing previous foolishness (repeated)
There's no point of alibis
Avoiding excuses or justifications (repeated)
(You can't turn back the hands of time)
Understanding the irreversibility of time (repeated)
My feet are moving, my soles dig in the ground
Moving forward with determination (repeated)
Full speed ahead and I've got pavement to pound
Full commitment to a purpose with obstacles to overcome (repeated)
The sky's full of sunshine, until the night
Positive outlook, despite challenges at night (repeated)
Where I could harvest the stars
Metaphorical reference to achieving great things (repeated)
A featherweight spirit given back to the wind
Light and carefree spirit returned to nature
It divvies out promise with a heavy hand
Promises given earnestly but with a burdensome impact
I'll turn stones I've never touched
Exploring uncharted territories and experiences
My sleeve still rolling up
Continuing to uncover unknown aspects of oneself
With a heart on it's cuff, with a heart on it's cuff
Symbolic representation of emotional vulnerability
It turns out I was the fool
Repetition emphasizing the realization of foolishness
It turns out I was the fool
-It turns out I was the fool
-It turns out I was the fool
