Another Way
Seeking Redemption: Struggles, Change, and Self-Discovery in "Another Way
Lyrics
Down in the grass lay in a field
Reflecting on a situation, lying in a field of grass.
When was the last day I was here
Questioning the duration since the last visit to this place.
How much can I change in a year
Contemplating personal growth and change over the course of a year.
And I can't find myself
Feeling lost and unable to discover one's true identity.
And I can't fight for my health
Struggling with physical and mental well-being.
And I know what it take
Aware of what it takes to succeed.
Keeps me awake don't it
The awareness of challenges keeping the individual awake.
Who changed my fate
Questioning a shift in destiny or circumstances.
I don't know my name
Uncertain about one's own identity or purpose.
That's why I'm up working this late
Working late due to a sense of purposelessness.
There's only so much time in a day
Acknowledging the limited time available in a day.
I'll die under the weight
Feeling overwhelmed and burdened, possibly by responsibilities.
It's too late I'll find another way
Resigned to the idea that change is needed and seeking another path.
Run at a fast pace
Expressing a desire to move forward quickly.
No we don't do last place here
Rejecting the idea of settling for last place in life.
No we don't do bad things here
Rejecting engagement in negative behaviors.
Running a real rat maze here
Navigating a challenging and complex situation.
Down in the dumps
Feeling downcast and abandoned.
Discarded away
Being discarded or neglected.
Dive in
Engaging in a metaphorical dive into challenges.
Scrounging and scrambling for something to say
Scrambling for words or solutions in a difficult situation.
Haven't I already got enough on my plate
Questioning the overwhelming nature of current responsibilities.
Find myself juggling bombs blowing up in my face
Juggling difficult situations with potential explosive consequences.
And I can't find myself
Continuing the struggle to find one's true self.
In my own private hell
Experiencing a personal hell or internal turmoil.
And I know what it take
Acknowledging what it takes to stay awake and alert.
Keeps me awake don't it
Reflecting on external factors affecting wakefulness.
Who changed my fate
Questioning a shift in destiny or circumstances (repeated).
I don't know my name
Uncertain about one's own identity or purpose (repeated).
That's why I'm up working this late
Working late due to a sense of purposelessness (repeated).
There's only so much time in a day
Acknowledging the limited time available in a day (repeated).
I'll die under the weight
Feeling overwhelmed and burdened, possibly by responsibilities (repeated).
It's too late I'll find another way
Resigned to the idea that change is needed and seeking another path (repeated).
