High School
Navigating Life's Maze: MoonLander's Reflection on High School Memories
Lyrics
Wishing I could say I was happy here
Expressing a desire to claim happiness in the current situation.
But I wouldn't change a thing with what happen here
Acceptance and no regrets about past events.
Up down look out man it's all a game
Life is unpredictable and resembles a game with ups and downs.
They always say I will but I'm never going to change
Others expect change, but the speaker doesn't believe it will happen.
Trying to make out of this town I'm in
Desire to escape the current location or situation.
I only need the music and the friends I'm with
Music and friends are the speaker's main sources of solace.
Running out of time but I'm right here
Feeling a sense of urgency but remaining present.
See the light at the end and its so clear
Seeing a clear path to a positive outcome.
This just feel like high school
Comparing the current experience to the challenges of high school.
Back when we had no rules
Reflecting on a time when there were no strict rules.
When we didn't know what to do
Confusion and uncertainty during that period.
This just feel like high school
Similarities between current circumstances and high school.
Except Now I know what to do
Having gained understanding and direction since high school.
They going to see it real soon
Anticipation of others recognizing the speaker's growth.
This just feel like high school
Repetition emphasizing the high school comparison.
Back when we had no rules
Reiterating the lack of rules during high school.
When we didn't know what to do
Recalling the confusion of not knowing what to do.
This just feel like high school
Linking the current situation to the feeling of high school.
Except Now I know what to do
Acknowledging personal growth and understanding.
They going to see it real soon
Expecting others to recognize the speaker's progress soon.
Big bro man he took me school
Reference to an influential figure (big brother) who guided the speaker.
I used to try so hard i just wanna be cool
Desire to be perceived as cool, perhaps influenced by the big brother.
I didn't wanna tell anyone my problems
Keeping personal problems hidden from others.
If I didn't talk about it then i know it would solve them
Belief that avoiding discussion won't solve problems.
I had 34 absence I didn't wanna go
Reflecting on challenges faced, such as school absences.
Cause when they made fun I didn't wanna know
Avoidance of knowing when others make fun of the speaker.
And none of this going to matter when I got it old
Recognition that current challenges won't matter in the future.
Would wake up in the morning told my daddy no
Defiance towards parental authority, possibly in adolescence.
I won't
Explicitly stating a refusal to comply.
This just feel like high school
Repetition emphasizing the high school comparison.
Back when we had no rules
Reiterating the absence of rules during high school.
When we didn't know what to do
Recalling the confusion of not knowing what to do.
This just feel like high school
Linking the current situation to the feeling of high school.
Except Now I know what to do
Acknowledging personal growth and understanding.
They going to see it real soon
Expecting others to recognize the speaker's progress soon.
This just feel like high school
Reiteration of the high school comparison.
Back when we had no rules
Reiterating the absence of rules during high school.
When we didn't know what to do
Recalling the confusion of not knowing what to do.
This just feel like high school
Linking the current situation to the feeling of high school.
Except Now I know what to do
Acknowledging personal growth and understanding.
They going to see it real soon
Expecting others to recognize the speaker's progress soon.
