Paid Up
Redeeming Debts: Pretty Beggar's Reflection on Life's True Currency
Lyrics
Everything a mystery
Everything is a mystery
All the words you said to me
Reflecting on words spoken to me
My head was in the clouds
Feeling dreamy and detached
A blessing I can see you now
Considering someone as a blessing
And I didn't care where we were
Indifferent to the location, focused on the person
Vision all ablur
Blurred vision, possibly metaphorical
Always out to get some more
Constant pursuit of more
From the hands I so adore
Admiring and seeking from cherished hands
But I'm paid up
Having settled all debts
Thousand debts but I made amends
Successfully resolving numerous obligations
And I'm paid up
Reiterating the cleared debts
So don't think twice just tell me yeah
Encouraging quick and affirmative responses
I like when you sit next to me
Enjoying proximity to someone special
Cos life has no guarantees
Acknowledging life's uncertainties
When is it enough to know
Contemplating the sufficiency of knowledge
Oh I'm lying at the foot of your throne
Lying metaphorically vulnerable before someone important
So come and tell me how you feel
Inviting open communication about feelings
And I'll show you how to be real
Promising authenticity in response
No one put your shackles on
Emphasizing freedom from external constraints
Oh it's money that's the life-long con
Highlighting the deceptive nature of money
But I'm paid up
Reiterating the resolution of debts
Thousand debts but I made amends
Acknowledging past financial burdens
And I'm paid up
Reiterating the cleared debts
So don't think twice just tell me yeah
Encouraging quick and affirmative responses
Well here I am, out of a jam and I've been been feeling alright
Expressing well-being after overcoming difficulties
Got a new lease on a new life
Gaining a fresh start in life
But I'm paid up
Reiterating the resolution of debts
Thousand debts but I made amends
Acknowledging past financial burdens
And I'm paid up
Reiterating the cleared debts
So don't think twice just tell me yeah
Encouraging quick and affirmative responses
Said baby I'm paid up
Asserting the settled debts once more
Thousand debts but I made amends
Highlighting the successful resolution of numerous debts
And I'm paid up
Reiterating the cleared debts
So don't think twice just tell me yeah
Encouraging quick and affirmative responses
