Man on a Mission
Unraveling Life's Maze: A Man on a Mission's Journey
Lyrics
Hey, I heard you'd run away
Expressing awareness of someone running away.
But where you gonna run?
Raising a question about where the person can escape to.
You got such a pretty face,
Complimenting the person's physical appearance.
And the world's a small, small place
Highlighting the vastness of the world despite its small size.
'cause when you're running on your own
Emphasizing the challenges of solo journeys.
You know you ain't like a rolling stone
Comparing the person to a rolling stone, suggesting a lack of stability.
Because a stone will find it's place
Contrasting with a stone, indicating the difficulty in finding one's place.
And when you hear this space
Suggesting a need for self-discovery and finding inner peace.
Just crawl and never run
Encouraging perseverance by crawling instead of running.
And when you're work is done
Implying the importance of completing one's work or tasks.
Then you'll see the sun
Anticipating a positive outcome symbolized by seeing the sun.
So sing what you want I'm a man on a mission
Declaring a personal mission and determination to achieve it.
No time to love, no time to be wasting but
Rejecting distractions like love and emphasizing the urgency of the mission.
I want to know if you feel above him
Seeking validation or understanding from someone else.
All the things you do that just make yourself feel undone, feel undone
Highlighting self-destructive behaviors that hinder personal growth.
Blues, I heard you caught the blues
Referring to someone experiencing sadness or depression.
And what was it they said
Asking about the cause of the blues and if the person has overcome them.
Have you got out of bed, have you got out of that?
Inquiring if the person has risen from bed and confronted their challenges.
I know a headspace that you don't
Claiming knowledge of a mental state not accessible to the person.
I will - you cannot and you don't
Asserting the ability to overcome challenges that the person cannot.
A fortune has been made on all the illness they made
Commenting on the profitability of the medical industry.
And then we've gotta pay for the drugs to take it away
Criticizing the cycle of creating and treating illnesses for profit.
And then you're gonna find there's nothing in your mind
Suggesting an emptiness in the mind after relying on medication.
That you don't already know, that you ain't already seen
Stating that the person possesses knowledge and experiences.
Do you live in a dream?
Questioning whether the person is living in a dream or reality.
Sing your song, and don't you cause trouble
Encouraging the person to express themselves without causing trouble.
Man on a mission there's a man in a bubble but
Identifying oneself as a focused individual in a protective bubble.
I want to know if you feel above him
Asking if the person feels superior to others.
All the things you do that just make yourself feel undone, feel undone
Highlighting self-sabotaging actions that hinder personal development.
Sing your song, and don't you cause trouble
Reiterating the call for self-expression without causing trouble.
Man on a mission there's a man in a bubble and
Reaffirming the identity as a focused individual in a protective bubble.
Play your cards, throw your dice
Advising to take risks and make decisions, symbolized by playing cards and dice.
You get a piece of land and a piece of advice
Suggesting that with courage, one can acquire both land and wisdom.
No time to be wasting there's no time to be wasted
Emphasizing the scarcity of time and the need to use it wisely.
No time to be wasting there's no time to get wasted

No time to be wasting always time to get wasted
