Unveiling Shadows: A Battle Against Misunderstanding
Lyrics
You don’t know what I see
You are unaware of my perspective.
You don’t know where I’ve been, or what I’ve done
You lack knowledge of my past experiences and actions.
Or anything that happened to me
You are not familiar with anything that has occurred in my life.
Before you lose your mind
Act before you lose control of your thoughts.
Before you take all of your time to let me know that
Prioritize understanding before investing time to criticize me.
What I said was wrong
Recognize that what I said may not be incorrect.
Before you run your mouth
Refrain from expressing opinions prematurely.
Just get into my shoes
Empathize by putting yourself in my situation.
So you can see all that I do
Comprehend the full extent of my actions.
But you don’t know that everything’s a lie
Be aware that appearances can be deceiving.
I never wanted this, no, none of this attention
I never sought this attention; it was not my desire.
Just take it back
Retract or undo what has been said or done.
Give me some slack
Show understanding and leniency.
Before you hide your face behind electric veils to spew your hate
Before resorting to online anonymity to spread negativity.
It seems so dark
The situation appears grim or challenging.
Lacking a heart
Seeming devoid of compassion or empathy.
But you return to normal just like before
You revert to normalcy despite initial negativity.
You came for me like a disease
You approached me aggressively, like an illness.
With everything you touch now
Everything you touch is tainted or harmful.
You're the bad breed
You embody negativity and hostility.
I could escape it, if I erase it
I could avoid it if I erase it from my life.
But I just keep on reading
Continuing to confront and experience negativity.
I keep denying, and without trying
Denying the situation, even without making an effort.
I bring it on myself
Accepting responsibility for the situation.
Before you run your mouth
Reiteration of the importance of understanding before judgment.
Just get into my shoes
Encouraging empathy by asking to walk in my shoes.
So you can see all that I do
Understanding the complexity of my actions.
But you don’t know that everything’s a lie
Highlighting the deceptive nature of appearances.
I never wanted this, no, none of this attention
Emphasizing the lack of desire for attention.
Just take it back
Requesting the withdrawal of negative judgment.
Give me some slack
Asking for understanding and leniency.
Before you hide your face behind electric veils to spew your hate
Warning against hiding behind online anonymity to spread hate.
It seems so dark
Describing a gloomy and heartless atmosphere.
Lacking a heart
Pointing out a lack of compassion or empathy.
But you return to normal just like before
Noting the return to normalcy after a negative encounter.
It's not real if I put my blinders on
Questioning the reality of a situation if one ignores certain aspects.
But is that wrong
Contemplating the morality of intentional ignorance.
Is it too late to make it all right
Wondering if it's too late to correct the situation.
Or do we let it tear us all apart
Pondering whether the situation will cause division.
Tear us all apart
Concern about potential disintegration of relationships or unity.
