Care
Embracing Life's Echo: Posie Pocket's Reflection on Identity and Belonging
Lyrics
Why do I care at all
Questioning the reason for caring
What name you call
Concern about the labels or titles given
Me when I'm not around
Worry about perception when absent
If this is how it goes down
Doubt about the outcome of situations
Why do I care at all
Reiteration of questioning the reason for caring
What they thought
Curiosity about opinions held about oneself
Of me when I was just a child
Reflection on childhood perceptions
Growing up in the wild
Recollection of growing up in an untamed environment
I like thinkin bout how
Contemplation on insignificance
Nothing really matters at all
Philosophical realization of life's insignificance
When I die
Thoughts about mortality and the end of life
My skin my bones my teeth my hair
Recognition of the body's components returning to nature after death
Will all return to the air
Acceptance of bodily decomposition
Underneath my toes
Awareness of the connection with the earth
The soil where it grows
Recognition of the transformative nature of soil
And turns into something more
Transformation into something more meaningful
Something beautiful
Embracing the concept of becoming something beautiful
That's what I'll be
Hopeful anticipation of being a source of hope
Another seed of hope
Symbolic reference to being a beacon of positivity
A sea of light
Metaphorical representation of radiating positivity
So why do I care at all
Reiteration of questioning the reason for caring
What name you call
Repeating concern about the names or titles used
Me when I'm not around
Repeating worry about perception in absence
If this is how it goes down
Repeating doubt about the outcome of situations
Why do I care at all
Reiteration of questioning the reason for caring
What they thought
Repeating curiosity about opinions held about oneself
Of me when I was just a child
Repeating reflection on childhood perceptions
Growing up in the wild
Repeating recollection of growing up in an untamed environment
I told you
Assertion of not needing much
I didn't need a thing
Desire for transcending to a higher state of existence
Shooting for that fourth dimensional being
Acknowledgment of personal growth and change
But I've changed
Recognition of personal development
Oh I've grown
Acknowledgment of personal maturation
Oh I know that just because I can't be
Acknowledging limitations in being present elsewhere but asserting freedom
Elsewhere
Acceptance of the inability to be physically elsewhere
Doesn't mean I can't be free
Asserting the capacity to be mentally or spiritually liberated despite physical constraints
I love and I'm worthy
Expressing love and asserting self-worth
I need your empathy
Seeking empathy and understanding
I'm scared but I'm learning to believe in me
Admitting fear but acknowledging the process of self-belief
Why do I care at all
Reiteration of questioning the reason for caring
What name you call
Repeating concern about the labels or titles given
Me when I'm not around
Repeating worry about perception when absent
If this is how it goes down
Repeating doubt about the outcome of situations
Why do I care at all
Reiteration of questioning the reason for caring
What they thought
Repeating curiosity about opinions held about oneself
Of me when I was just a child
Repeating reflection on childhood perceptions
Growing up in the wild
Repeating recollection of growing up in an untamed environment
