Paralysis
Embracing Life's Struggle: Mother Lion's Paralysis Unveiled
Lyrics
Waking up it’s hard to breathe
Struggling to start the day, experiencing difficulty in breathing.
Replaying what you said to me all night
Continuously thinking about and replaying a conversation throughout the night.
Paralyzed by what could be
Feeling immobilized by the possibilities or potential outcomes.
Now I’m just too tired to fight
Exhausted and lacking the energy to engage in a struggle or argument.
I can feel it in my chest
Sensing a physical manifestation of stress or anxiety in the chest.
All the voices in my head they’re right
Acknowledging the validity of conflicting thoughts in the mind.
Telling me to stay in bed
Inner voices advising to stay in bed, suggesting avoidance.
It’s just not worth the fight
Concluding that the effort is not worth the emotional or mental struggle.
But something keeps telling me
Despite reluctance, there is an inner prompting to take action.
Move
A call to action, encouraging movement despite challenges.
Mama’s always telling me
Recalling maternal encouragement and belief in one's capabilities.
You can do anything
An affirmation that one has the ability to overcome obstacles.
So why is it so hard to breathe
Questioning the difficulty in breathing despite the encouragement.
Is ambition killing me
Considering if one's drive for success is causing harm or distress.
Static in my brain
Experiencing mental noise or interference, possibly from stress.
Morphine in my veins
Alluding to a numbing or soothing influence, possibly escapism.
Still I hear it call
Hearing a reassuring voice amidst the struggles.
Saying I’m alright
Claiming resilience and self-assurance, asserting being fine.
Life is worth the fight
Affirming that life is worth the challenges and hardships.
Bloody knees and all
Mentioning physical wounds, implying perseverance through pain.
But something keeps telling me
Despite difficulties, the internal urging to keep moving forward.
Move
Reiterating the persistent call to take action despite obstacles.
