Lost in the World
Finding Redemption: A Journey Through Darkness
Lyrics
Montell forever
Expression of a lasting connection or commitment to Montell.
Yeah
Affirmation or agreement with the preceding statement.
I never was the one so I did a bunch of drugs
Engagement in substance abuse as a coping mechanism.
And I had a lot of fun
Enjoyment experienced during the phase of substance use.
But I tried to kill myself
Admission of a suicide attempt despite the apparent enjoyment.
Yeah, I always was the one in
Self-perception as an outsider, possibly struggling with mental health.
The back of the class
Isolation and detachment from the social environment.
No, nobody ever asked if I needed any help
Expressing the lack of support or concern from others.
Yeah, I never was the one with
Lack of belongingness and camaraderie with peers.
The friends on the bus
Loneliness and absence of romantic relationships.
With the girls on my arms and
Imagery of social scenes that seem appealing but are distant.
It looked a lotta fun
Observing others having fun, feeling excluded.
But nobody called me over
Rejection and lack of invitation from others.
And so I drink until I'm sober
Turning to alcohol as a coping mechanism for emotional pain.
Lost in the world lost
Repetition emphasizing a feeling of being lost in the world.
Lost in the world lost
-Lost in the world lost
-Lost in the world lost
-And so I met a kid and
Introduction of a character sharing their life story.
He told me about his past
Disclosure of past experiences by the introduced character.
And he told me about his God
Reference to the introduced character's belief in God.
And I told him get lost
Dismissive response to the introduced character's beliefs.
Man, I don't believe in God
Rejection and skepticism towards the concept of God and salvation.
If He died on the cross then
-I told him keep Him dead
-And he told me that He lives
Contradictory acknowledgment of the possibility of God's existence.
Yeah, he told me that He lives
-Man, forget about this itch
Disregard for spiritual matters due to a sense of unworthiness.
Man, I got too many sins
-And he told me He forgives
Acknowledgment and acceptance of forgiveness offered by God.
And he told me He forgives
-If there is a God in Heaven
Seeking salvation and guidance from a higher power.
Can He save my soul?
-I've been lost in all my problems
-Can He lead me home?
-Lost in the world lost
Reiteration of feeling lost, potentially with a newfound hope in spirituality.
Lost in the world lost in the world
-Lost in the world lost
-Lost in the world lost in the world
-Lost
Final affirmation of being lost, possibly reflecting ongoing struggles.
