Lyrics
See you, see you
The repetition of "See you" suggests a focus on observation and awareness.
See you, see you
-Comin' outside to take a breath
Coming outside to take a breath may symbolize a break or escape from a situation.
Take a moment, I can get over this
Expressing a need for a moment to overcome challenges or difficulties.
See you all just tryna get
Others trying to get under the speaker's skin, possibly causing discomfort.
Under my, under my skin, I guess
-Thank God I'm strong enough to brush it off
The speaker acknowledges strength in brushing off negative influences.
But you need to check yourself
A warning for someone to reflect on their behavior.
'Cause I have had enough, the gloves are off
The speaker has reached a limit and is ready to confront the situation.
This time I'm speakin' my mind
A declaration of speaking one's mind and asserting oneself.
Speakin' my mind
-I used to lower my eyes
A shift from avoiding attention to confidently facing the world without shame.
Hopin' that might make me invisible
-But now I level my gaze
-'Cause what have I got to be ashamed of?
-I've got to hold my own
The speaker emphasizes the need to stand firm and make their presence known.
Make it known, the tower is turning
-Yeah, yeah, I got a voice
The acknowledgment of having a voice and making choices even in challenging times.
Made the choice, the city is crumblin'
-See you, see you
Observing someone who holds the speaker's heart and attempting to make eye contact.
I see you holdin' my heart, come forward
-See you, see you
-I see you standin' without somethin' to say
-Yeah, you, yeah, you
-You got it, you got it, darlin', you know you do
-See you, see you
-Do you see me lookin' back, right at you, at you?
-I think you like to make me feel it bare
Addressing discomfort caused by someone who enjoys making the speaker feel vulnerable.
A little uncomfortable
-I guess it gives you somethin'
-Makes you feel valuable
-Well, I'm just standin' here, tryna be
Expressing a desire to be confident, but facing challenges due to external interference.
Tryna be confident
-But you keep pullin' that rug
-Pullin' the rug from beneath my feet
-See you, see you
Continuing the theme of observation and interaction with the person who has an impact.
I see you holdin' my heart, come forward
-See you, see you
-I see you standin' without somethin' to say
-Yeah, you, yeah, you
-You got it, you got it, darlin', you know you do
-See you, see you
-Do you see me lookin' back, right at you, at you?
-See you, see you
Highlighting the observer's awareness of the other person's actions and intentions.
I see you hoping that I will fall for
-See you, see you
-I see you standin' without somethin' to say
-Yeah, you, yeah, you
-You got it, you got it, darlin', you know you do
-See you, see you
-You see me lookin' back, right back at you, at you
-Looking back, right back at you, at you
A repetition of looking back at the person, reinforcing the theme of observation.
