Fearless
Fearless Ascent: Defying Doubt, Embracing Freedom
Lyrics
You say the hill's too steep to climb
Expressing skepticism or doubt about achieving a difficult goal
Chiding
Scolding or reprimanding
You say you'd like to see me try
Expressing a willingness to attempt despite skepticism
Climbing
Attempting or striving to achieve
You pick the place and I'll choose the time
Allowing the other person to determine the location while asserting control over the timing
And I'll climb the hill in my own way
Asserting individuality and independence in pursuing the goal
Just wait a while for the right day
Patience in waiting for the opportune moment to pursue the goal
And as I rise above the treeline and the clouds
Gaining perspective by surpassing obstacles and challenges
I look down hearing the sound of the things you said today
Reflecting on criticisms or discouragement while ascending
Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd
Bravely facing a challenging situation, disregarding judgment
Smiling
Showing courage or confidence in the face of adversity
Merciless, the magistrate turns 'round
An authority figure turning disapprovingly
Frowning
Expressing disapproval or dissatisfaction
And who's the fool who wears the crown?
Questioning the worthiness of the person in power
Go down in your own way
Encouraging individuality in facing challenges
And everyday is the right day
Asserting that any day is suitable for taking action
And as you rise above the fear lines in his brow
Observing the change in perspective when overcoming fear or hesitation
You look down
Reflecting on the faces or reactions of others while overcoming challenges
Hear the sound of the faces in the crowd
Hearing the reactions or thoughts of the crowd while succeeding
(Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart)
Encouragement to persist despite difficulties, maintaining hope
(And you'll never walk alone)
Emphasizing companionship and support in the journey
(You'll never walk alone)
Reiterating the message of not being alone in the journey
(Liverpool! Liverpool!)
Celebrating unity or solidarity, possibly a reference to the football club Liverpool
