Reckless
Journey of Self-Discovery: Embracing the Reckless Spirit
Lyrics
There’s a road ahead of me and though it may be many miles
Anticipation of a long journey or challenge lies ahead.
I just want to get myself out of this state I’m in
Desire to overcome current emotional or mental state.
There’s a place in my heart and though it longs to be with you
Emotional longing for a connection with someone special.
In all of my wanderings you know I’ve been thinking
Reflection on past experiences and contemplation.
That I’ve got to do this thing on my own
Recognition of the need for individual growth and self-reliance.
Or I’ll never be satisfied
The realization that personal satisfaction comes from self-discovery.
If I don’t follow my heart then let me be damned
Willingness to face consequences for following one's heart.
‘Cause there’s some reckless in every man
Acknowledgment of the inherent impulsiveness in every person.
There’s so much I want to say but I can never seem to find the words
Struggle to express deep feelings verbally.
So I’ll just sing these melodies and maybe they’ll speak for me
Turning to music as a means of communication and expression.
All my life I’ve been searching for purpose for some greater meaning
Lifelong quest for purpose and meaning in existence.
But this restlessness inside is making me believe
Anxiety and inner turmoil driving the need for personal growth.
That I’ve got to do this thing on my own
Reiteration of the importance of individual journey and growth.
Or I’ll never be satisfied
Emphasis on the connection between personal satisfaction and autonomy.
If I don’t follow my heart then let me be damned
Reaffirmation of the readiness to face consequences for one's choices.
‘Cause there’s some reckless in every man
Reiteration of the presence of impulsiveness in everyone.
I don’t ever want to settle for less
Refusal to settle for mediocrity or less than one's potential.
When I know I was made for greatness
Awareness of being destined for greatness and refusing to compromise.
I just want to reach for the sky
Aspiration to achieve ambitious goals and dreams.
I don’t ever want to settle for less
Reiteration of the refusal to accept anything less than greatness.
When I know I was made for greatness
Continued desire to strive for excellence and success.
I just want to reach for the sky
Expressing the aspiration to reach for high aspirations.
I don’t ever want to settle for less
Consistent commitment to pursuing greatness.
When I know I was made for greatness
Reiteration of the refusal to settle for anything less.
I just want to reach for the sky
Persistent pursuit of reaching for the highest aspirations.
And now I know
A moment of realization or self-discovery.
That I’ve got to do this thing on my own
Reiteration of the importance of personal journey and growth.
Or I’ll never be satisfied
Emphasis on the connection between personal satisfaction and autonomy.
If I don’t follow my heart then let me be damned
Reaffirmation of the readiness to face consequences for one's choices.
‘Cause there’s some reckless in every man
Reiteration of the presence of impulsiveness in everyone.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Musical refrain, possibly emphasizing the theme of recklessness in every person.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
