Empathy Unveiled: A Reflection on Personal Growth and Accountability
Lyrics
It didn't hit me at the time
Reflecting on a realization that didn't occur immediately.
Now it haunts me it keeps me awake at night
Feeling haunted by a past realization, causing sleeplessness.
I wasn't taught that it's not right
Was not taught that a certain behavior is wrong.
That's no excuse I should have seen it
Acknowledging the absence of an excuse and the responsibility to have noticed the issue.
With my own two eyes
Expressing regret for not seeing the problem firsthand.
It's not too late to change the way we behave
Emphasizing the possibility of changing behavior for the better.
We have to learn from this
Stressing the need to learn from past mistakes.
There is nothing to gain from only shifting the blame
Rejecting blame-shifting and advocating for taking action.
We have to work for it
Highlighting the importance of putting in effort for positive change.
I didn't know that you weren't safe
Expressing ignorance about someone's safety.
I couldn't see the difference
Unable to discern a significant difference in a situation.
And I thought you were okay
Assuming someone is okay without understanding their struggles.
Cause I can't relate to what you've been through
Expressing difficulty in relating to someone's experiences.
I will never understand just how badly this affects you
Acknowledging the inability to fully comprehend the impact of certain experiences on someone.
I wish that I could apologise and you know I meant every word I said
Expressing a desire to apologize sincerely and stand by previous words.
I wish that I could change the way things went
Wishing for the ability to change the course of events.
My body my rights this is my design
Asserting control over one's body and rights, declaring a personal design or choice.
Don't be scared to speak
Encouraging others not to be afraid to voice their opinions.
Don't be ashamed to survive
Urging individuals not to feel ashamed for surviving challenges.
My body my rights this is my design
Reiterating the importance of personal autonomy and rights.
