The Lucky One
Embracing Fortune: Unveiling the Depths of Life in Perry Foster's 'The Lucky One'
Lyrics
Ain't I the lucky one
Expressing a sense of good fortune or luck
My mother's only son
Highlighting the singer as the only son of their mother
The lucky one
Reiterating the idea of being fortunate
All my life
Reflecting on the entirety of the singer's life
Been broke and I been down
Describing experiences of financial hardship and emotional lows
Been too high to be found
Emphasizing moments of being unreachable or lost
Could not be found
Reiteration of being untraceable or hidden
All my life
Reflecting on the entirety of the singer's life (repeated)
Been trying to let you in
Expressing attempts to open up emotionally
Too scared to fit my skin
Conveying fear and discomfort with one's identity
How do I begin?
Pondering how to start a particular process or relationship
Don't want to let you go
Expressing reluctance to release someone
Just trying to let you know
Communicating the desire to inform or make someone aware
Stay a little more
Requesting the other person to stay a bit longer
All my life
Reflecting on the entirety of the singer's life (repeated)
Too tired to misbehave
Expressing weariness and a desire to avoid trouble
Won't dig no early grave
Rejecting the idea of an early demise
But I can't be saved
Acknowledging a lack of salvation or rescue
All my life
Reflecting on the entirety of the singer's life (repeated)
Who are you looking for
Posing a question about the person the singer is seeking
Come knocking at your door
Describing a visit or attempt to connect with someone
If it ain't me anymore
Suggesting a potential change in the singer's identity or role
All my life
Reflecting on the entirety of the singer's life (repeated)
Been trying to let you in
Repeating the desire to open up emotionally
Too scared to fit my skin
Reiterating the fear and discomfort with one's identity
How do I begin?
Pondering how to initiate a specific action or relationship
Don't want to let you go
Expressing reluctance to release someone (repeated)
Just trying to let you know
Repeating the desire to inform or make someone aware
Stay a little more
Requesting the other person to stay a bit longer (repeated)
All my life
Reflecting on the entirety of the singer's life (repeated)
Ain't I the lucky one
Reiterating the singer's sense of being fortunate
