Everything You Feel
Unveiling the Soul's Journey: Embracing Every Emotion in REO Speedwagon's 'Everything You Feel'
Lyrics
You are everything you feel, everything you know
You embody all your emotions and experiences, defining who you are.
Everyone you ever love, all that you let go
Everyone you've loved and everything you've let go of contributes to your identity.
Everything you hide, all that you reveal
Your hidden aspects and the things you choose to reveal shape who you are.
Everything you overcome, you are everything you feel
Overcoming challenges defines your character, making you what you feel.
You tell me you're afraid of what's in front of you
You express fear about the unknown future and carry the scars of past abuse.
The scars of your abuse, they cover you
The impact of past abuse is visible and pervasive in your life.
And I wonder and I fear what will become of you
Concern and worry about what the future holds for you.
So trace your anger right to the source
Suggests confronting the root cause of anger to address and overcome it.
Look into the eyes of the truth, and remember
Encouragement to face the truth and recognize your choices in life.
You are everything you choose, everything you find
Your choices and discoveries shape your identity and define who you are.
All that you can't live without, all you leave behind
Things you can't live without and those left behind contribute to your essence.
Everything you seek, everything you lose
Seeking, losing, and the experiences associated with them are part of you.
Everything you treasure, you are everything you choose
Your treasures and what you choose to value define who you are.
Slipping through the cracks ever since you were a child
Experiencing difficulties and challenges since childhood, slipping through life's challenges.
Lost in the shuffle, just trying to survive
Feeling lost and trying to survive amid life's complexities.
You can sink into denial but there's only so long you can hide
Emphasizes that denial has limits, and hiding from reality is temporary.
Before you're trapped in a habit, drowning in excess
Warning against falling into destructive habits and excessive behaviors.
You're up against a wall that even you can't climb
Confronting a formidable challenge that seems insurmountable.
Or you can use your fears to guide you and your rage as fuel
Suggests using fear and rage as motivators to guide and empower yourself.
You've gotta leave some rubber on the road to recover
Encouragement to leave a lasting impact or effort in overcoming challenges.
