Cannot Change It All
Unveiling Life's True Wealth
Lyrics
Man is best when he does not know the riches at his feet
Human beings are at their best when they are unaware of the abundance and wealth surrounding them.
Then he cannot change it all to what he doesn't need
When someone is unaware of the riches, they cannot transform or alter everything into what they don't actually require.
I went up on the mountainside and looked down on the land
The singer went up to a mountainside and observed the land from above.
A stranger to my own dear home for years I've been abroad
Despite being physically present, the singer feels like a stranger in their own home due to being absent for a prolonged period.
Where I've gone I won't say for you will hear it wrong
The singer refrains from disclosing their specific travel destinations because they fear others might misinterpret or form negative opinions about them.
And think too poorly of this girl
The singer worries that revealing their travels might lead others to have a low or negative opinion of them.
Man is best when he does not know the riches at his feet
Reiteration of the idea that people are at their best when they are oblivious to the wealth they possess.
Then he cannot change it all to what he doesn't need
If individuals are unaware of their riches, they are unable to transform everything into things they do not truly need.
Some may say I travel with my feet too apart
Some people may criticize the singer for journeying extensively, trying to cater to the needs of many.
Trying to cover acres for every bleeding heart
The singer feels they are trying to assist or cover large areas to help every suffering individual.
If I stop and look at all the heaviness that's come
When the singer pauses to contemplate the burden they carry, it becomes challenging to find love or positivity.
Where on earth will I find love?
The singer wonders where they can find genuine love or emotional fulfillment amidst their burdens.
Man is best when he does not know the riches at his feet
Reiteration of the belief that people are at their best when they remain unaware of their own wealth.
Then he cannot change it all to what he doesn't need
Being ignorant of one's riches prevents the transformation of everything into unnecessary things.
Man is best when he does not know the riches at his feet
Restating the idea that individuals are in their best state when they are ignorant of the abundance they possess.
Then he cannot change it all to what he doesn't need
Not being aware of one's wealth prevents the transformation of everything into unnecessary possessions or desires.
