I Want It All
Embracing Ambition: I Want It All
Lyrics
Woke up this morning feeling sorry
Expressing a sense of regret or remorse upon waking up.
Couldn't get myself up outta bed
Struggling to get out of bed, possibly due to emotional or mental challenges.
I feel like everyone's against me
Feeling a perception of opposition from others.
cnd the world keeps turning me up on my head
Suggesting a feeling of being disoriented or overwhelmed by life's challenges.
“Jack of all trades,” they say
Referring to the idea of being skilled in many areas but not recognized for it.
(I know they're wrong)
Rejecting the notion that the speaker is a "Jack of all trades."
“Master of none,
Continuing to dismiss the idea of being a "Master of none."
(Not gonna hear it, no)
Asserting the refusal to accept negative judgments.
Can't have it all,” they say
Confronting the notion that one cannot have everything and must choose.
“Girl you gotta pick one”
Reflecting societal pressure to make choices in life.
Oh, but baby I, I want it all
Expressing a desire for comprehensive success and fulfillment.
I wanna reach for the stars in the sky
Aspiring to achieve great heights and ambitions.
Like I'm 10 feet tall
Desiring to feel powerful and confident.
(I want it all)
Reaffirming the desire for all-encompassing success.
I wanna be just like my lover
Expressing a wish to emulate the qualities of a loved one.
With a heart of gold and filled with so much love
Describing the loved one with positive attributes like a heart of gold and abundant love.
Sometimes it's hard to find that pleasure
Acknowledging the difficulty in finding joy or satisfaction.
Writing songs that make me feel like giving up
Alluding to challenges in the creative process, possibly experiencing discouragement.
“Jack of all trades,” they say
Reiterating the rejection of being a "Jack of all trades."
(I know they're wrong)
Reaffirming the speaker's disagreement with the negative characterization.
“Master of none,
Persisting in refusing the label of a "Master of none."
(Not gonna hear it, no)
Stating the speaker's determination to ignore such negative opinions.
Can't have it all,” they say
Challenging the idea that one must choose and cannot have everything.
“Girl you gotta pick one”
Reflecting societal expectations to make decisive choices.
Oh, but baby I, I want it all
Reiterating the strong desire for comprehensive success and fulfillment.
I wanna reach for the stars in the sky
Expressing the ambition to reach for extraordinary goals.
Like I'm 10 feet tall
Desiring to feel exceptionally empowered and confident.
