For Nothing
Embrace Your True Self: A Journey of Identity and Freedom
Lyrics
So don't you turn away
Encouragement to stay engaged and not look away.
And be proud, be yourself today
Promotion of self-pride and authenticity in the present moment.
You ain't got to worry worry, for nothing
Reassurance that there is no need to worry about anything.
Worry worry
Repetition of the message to not worry.
Tears of shame and confusion
Expressing emotions of shame and confusion through tears.
Of who I am and who they say I am
Reflecting on the internal struggle between self-perception and societal expectations.
It's not my fault
Denial of personal fault in the situation.
It's not their fault
Denial of fault in others; acknowledging a shared struggle.
It's the skin we wear
Attributing challenges to the external, the skin one wears.
It's the mask we bear
Referring to the societal mask individuals carry.
I knew as boy who to run to
Recalling a time in childhood when guidance was sought during fearful moments.
Whenever my fears couldn't undo
Seeking solace and support when faced with fears.
Mama said
Referencing maternal advice.
It's the heavenly
Connecting the guidance received to a heavenly, higher source.
That's who we oughta be
Emphasizing the ideal behavior dictated by heavenly influence.
It's your identity
Linking the prescribed behavior to personal identity.
So don't you turn away
Reiteration of the instruction not to turn away.
And be proud
Encouragement to take pride in oneself.
Be yourself today
Reassurance against worrying about anything.
You ain't got to worry worry for nothing
Repetition of the message to avoid worry.
Worry worry for nothing
Continued emphasis on not worrying for anything.
Don't you turn away
Reiteration of the instruction not to turn away.
And be proud
Encouragement to take pride in oneself.
Be yourself today
Reassurance against worrying about anything.
You ain't got to worry worry for nothing
Repetition of the message to avoid worry.
Worry worry for nothing
Continued emphasis on not worrying for anything.
Now that I stand on my two feet
Reflecting on personal growth and independence.
I kiss my mom
Expressing affection towards the mother figure.
Tell her til we meet
Conveying a temporary farewell until a future meeting.
Find a girl
Expressing the intention to find a romantic partner.
To tell the world
Sharing personal joy with the world through a relationship.
That's who we oughta be
Reiterating the ideal behavior influenced by heavenly guidance.
It's the heavenly
Emphasizing the importance of adhering to heavenly ideals.
Now that I hold this gentle soul
Reflecting on the responsibility of caring for a gentle soul.
Baby girl, welcome to this world
Welcoming a new individual into the world.
Daddy says
Recalling paternal advice and guidance.
It's the heavenly
Connecting the guidance received to a heavenly, higher source.
That's who we oughta be
Emphasizing the ideal behavior dictated by heavenly influence.
It's your identity
Linking the prescribed behavior to personal identity.
