Brand New Game
Life's Brand New Game: Navigating Change and Embracing Growth
Lyrics
Do you remember Fazil's friend?
Recalling Fazil's friend.
He used to live in the House of blend
Describing the place he lived.
He told a story of his life, about a fork and knife
Narrating a story about everyday objects (fork and knife) that may symbolize life experiences.
He said when he was 22, he was mostly feeling blue
At 22, feeling predominantly unhappy or melancholic.
I wonder what he's up to now, if he's changed somehow
Curiosity about the friend's current situation and potential changes.
Did he ever find his way to the greener side?
Wondering if the friend found a better situation or a happier state of being.
Or did he get his dreams tonight?
Questioning whether the friend achieved his dreams.
I'm not the same, years have past
Reflecting on personal change over time.
It kind of scares me how it went so fast
Expressing unease about how quickly time has passed.
It's a brand new game, life has past
Life has changed, emphasizing the passage of time.
And all I wanted was to make it last
Desiring continuity or permanence in life.
Do you remember Fazil's friend?
Revisiting memories of Fazil's friend.
He said you'd be friends 'til the end
Recalling a promise of everlasting friendship.
In a soft world, do you trust a guy who's losin' must?
Questioning trust in someone facing difficulties.
I think he's got his fingers crossed
Suspecting uncertainty or doubt in the friend's aspirations.
That he got it all across
Hope that the friend has achieved everything he wanted.
I hope you found the missing link
Wishing the friend has found what was missing in life.
Did he ever stop to think?
Wondering if the friend ever contemplated deeply.
I'm not the same, years have past
Emphasizing personal change over time.
It kind of scares me how it went so fast
Expressing anxiety about the speed of life's passing.
It's a brand new game, life has past
Life has changed, emphasizing the passage of time.
And all I wanted was to make it last
Desiring continuity or permanence in life.
It's a brand new game and not quite what I thought
Describing the novelty of life's circumstances.
I can remain the same but still achieve a lot
One can evolve while achieving significant things.
It's a brand new game and how our lives will pass
Life is constantly changing, impacting our journey.
With one foot stuck in the past, in the past
Being partly stuck in past experiences.
Oh can I ever make it last? (make it last)
Yearning for a lasting impact or impression.
It's all I wanted
Expressing the singular desire for something.
I wanted it to last, (wanted it to last)
Reiterating the desire for longevity.
I'm not the same, years have past
Highlighting personal change over time.
It kind of scares me how it went so fast
Expressing anxiety about the speed of life's passing.
It's a brand new game, life has past
Life has changed, emphasizing the passage of time.
And all I wanted was to make it last, to make it last
Desiring continuity or permanence in life.
It's all I wanted
Expressing the singular desire for something.
Yeah I wanted it to last
Reiterating the desire for longevity.
Wanted it to last
Yearning for something to endure.
