I Know What You Are
Unveiling the Essence: I Know What You Are by Mary Esther Carter
Lyrics
I know what you are
I understand your true nature
I know what you are
I am confident in my knowledge of your essence
Im runnin up hill
I am facing challenges and difficulties
Runnin up hill
Continuing to face challenges and difficulties
Out of breath from the other steps
Feeling exhausted from previous efforts
I'm runnin up hill
Continuing to confront challenges and difficulties
Runnin up hill
Persisting in facing challenges and difficulties
Out of steps from the other breaths
Experiencing fatigue from ongoing struggles
And like a dust floating in circles in the wind
Using imagery of dust in the wind to convey a sense of aimlessness
I'll keep, wandering
Expressing a commitment to keep wandering without a clear direction
And I'll say
Introducing a statement or declaration
I know what you are
Reiteration of understanding someone's true nature
I know what you are
Confident restatement of knowledge about someone's essence
And I grab a handful of walnuts
Engaging in an action, possibly symbolic, of grabbing walnuts
And they taste bitter like, my mouth
Describing the taste of walnuts as bitter, drawing a parallel to a personal experience
I like to match my personality to the taste buds that come in and out, out
Connecting taste preferences to personality traits that fluctuate
I know what you are
Reiteration of understanding someone's true nature
I know what you are
Confident restatement of knowledge about someone's essence
What you are
Emphasizing the certainty of the understanding
I know what you are
Expressing a continued awareness of someone's true nature
My feeble body wants to be strong and brave
Desiring strength and bravery for a physically weak body
My feeble body wants to be strong and brave
Repeating the desire for physical strength and courage
So I'll take off all of my hair
Symbolic act of removing hair, possibly signifying vulnerability
And I'll walk bravely over there
Expressing a bold and courageous movement towards a specific direction
And I'll speak my mind like I got one worth listening to
Committing to express opinions with confidence
Oh and I'll say
Introducing another statement or declaration
I, I, I know what you are
Reiteration of the confident knowledge of someone's true nature
