Song To Myself
Embrace Yourself: A Song to Overcome Insecurities
Lyrics
I wish
I have a desire
That people would like me more, I wish
Desire for more likability from others
I wasn't so insecure, I wish
Desire to overcome insecurities
That I could have thoughts that were my own
Desire for independent thoughts
And I wish
Expressing a wish
That I didn't compare myself like this
Desire to stop comparing oneself negatively
I know it's bad for my mental health, I wish
Acknowledging the negative impact on mental health
That I wasn't so scared of being alone
Fear of being alone
(So scared of being alone)
Reiteration of fear of solitude
And if a genie came to talk, I'd get tongue-tied
Difficulty expressing oneself to a genie
'Cause I don't know how to express all my insides
Challenges in expressing inner feelings
That's why I dress the way I dress on the outside
Linking external appearance to inner struggles
This is a song to myself, don't let yourself down
Addressing oneself with a motivational message
Make sure that sad little kid, back then would be proud
Encouraging self-pride and preventing disappointment
And if you're needing some help, just fucking reach out
Advocating seeking help when needed
If you dive into your head, make sure you don't drown
Cautioning against overwhelming thoughts
This is a song to myself, yeah, drop your shoulders
Encouraging self-love as one ages
Fall into love with yourself as you get older
Reflecting on personal growth
You know you started all this so finish it out
Acknowledging self-initiated changes
Don't even care if anyone's listening now
Indifference to external validation
(This is a song to myself)
I wish
Desire for a positive inner dialogue
I had a brain that was nice to me, I wish
Desire to become a likable person
That I was someone I'd like to be, I wish
Desire for personal improvement
I wasn't scared of starting new conversations
Fear of initiating new conversations
And if a genie came to talk, I'd get tongue-tied
Reiteration of difficulty expressing to a genie
'Cause I don't know how to express all my insides
Continued struggle in expressing inner feelings
That's why I dress the way I dress on the outside
Linking external appearance to inner struggles
This is a song to myself, don't let yourself down
Self-encouragement to avoid disappointment
Make sure that sad little kid, back then would be proud
Encouraging pride in one's past self
And if you're needing some help, just fucking reach out
Advocating seeking help when needed
If you dive into your head, make sure you don't drown
Warning against drowning in thoughts
This is a song to myself, yeah, drop your shoulders
Encouraging self-love as one ages
Fall into love with yourself as you get older
Reflecting on personal growth
You know you started all this, so finish it out
Acknowledging self-initiated changes
Don't even care if anyone's listening now
Indifference to external validation
This is a song to myself, to myself, to myself
Repetition of the song's dedication to self
This is a song to myself, to myself, to myself
-This is a song to myself, to myself, to myself
-This is a song to myself
Final emphasis on the song's dedication to self
This is a song to myself, don't let yourself down
Self-encouragement to avoid disappointment
Make sure that sad little kid, back then would be proud
Encouraging pride in one's past self
And if you're needing some help, just fucking reach out
Advocating seeking help when needed
If you dive into your head, make sure you don't drown
Warning against drowning in thoughts
This is a song to myself
Reiteration of the song's dedication to self
