Four Walls
Embracing Independence: Four Walls Narrates Self-Discovery and Strength
Lyrics
Yes, mom, I sleep at night
Assuring his mother that he sleeps at night
You don't need to worry 'bout that
Reassuring his mother not to worry about his well-being
You don't need to worry 'bout that
Repeating the reassurance to his mother
I know I'm out of sight
Acknowledging that he's out of sight
But know that I'm doing alright
Reassuring that he's doing well despite being distant
Know that I'm doing just fine
Emphasizing that he's doing fine
There's too many times that you're forgetting
Noting instances where his mother forgets
You don't need to call me twice to pick up a second fight
Stating that his mother doesn't need to call twice for him to respond
But yes, I get it, you fear I'll be unsteady
Acknowledging his mother's fear that he might be unsteady
But I said it a million times
Reiterating a previous statement multiple times
Inside of these four walls, I know I'm good
Feeling secure and content within his personal space
And I don't really need nobody
Expressing independence and not relying on others
I don't ever feel alone
Asserting that he never feels alone within his private space
Inside of these four walls, I know I'm good
Reiterating a sense of well-being within his four walls
And I can cope with these changes
Indicating the ability to handle and adapt to changes
You just gotta let me go
Requesting permission to be let go
I'm good, I'm good
Affirming that he's doing well
I know I'm not a saint
Acknowledging his imperfections
Every single ghost in my head
Referencing troubling thoughts or memories
You don't need to know about them
Suggesting that some things are better left unsaid
Something should stay unsaid
Emphasizing the need for certain information to remain private
It doesn't mean that I'm doing bad
Clarifying that not all internal struggles are visible
You just gotta understand
Requesting understanding from his mother
That there's too many times that you're forgetting
Highlighting instances of forgetfulness by his mother
You don't need to call me twice to pick up a second fight
Reiterating that his mother doesn't need to call twice for a response
But yes, I get it, you fear I'll be unsteady
Acknowledging his mother's concern about his stability
But I said it a million times
Repeating a statement multiple times
Inside of these four walls, I know I'm good
Reiterating a sense of well-being within his four walls
And I don't really need nobody
Expressing independence and not relying on others
I don't ever feel alone
Asserting that he never feels alone within his private space
Inside of these four walls, I know I'm good
Reiterating a sense of well-being within his four walls
And I can cope with these changes
Indicating the ability to handle and adapt to changes
You just gotta let me go
Requesting permission to be let go
I'm good, I'm good
Affirming that he's doing well
I'm good, I'm good
Repeating the affirmation of his well-being
(I'm good, I'm good)
-You better believe me
Emphasizing the sincerity of his statement
Ohh, I'm good, I'm good
Repeating the affirmation of his well-being
Inside of these four walls, I know I'm good
Reiterating a sense of well-being within his four walls
And I don't really need nobody
Expressing independence and not relying on others
I don't ever feel alone
Asserting that he never feels alone within his private space
Inside of these four walls, I know I'm good
Reiterating a sense of well-being within his four walls
And I can cope with these changes
Indicating the ability to handle and adapt to changes
You just gotta let me go
Requesting permission to be let go
I'm good, I'm good
Affirming that he's doing well
I'm good, I'm good
Repeating the affirmation of his well-being
