Help Me Spell My Name
Soulful Struggle: Seeking Redemption in 'Help Me Spell My Name'
Lyrics
When I look at myself in the mirror
Contemplating self-reflection in the mirror.
I see a broken soul
Perceiving oneself as broken and troubled.
With no more sense to fight
Feeling a lack of purpose or motivation to continue fighting.
Oh I hate what I see in the mirror
Expressing dislike for the image reflected in the mirror.
Sometimes I feel the need
Experiencing moments of contemplating leaving life behind.
To leave this life behind
Expressing a desire to escape from the challenges of life.
I know that things go well
Acknowledging positive aspects of life but feeling ashamed.
And I have to be ashamed
Recognizing personal shortcomings and feeling foolish.
I know that I'm a fool
Acknowledging one's foolishness in considering leaving life.
To think of leaving this game
Pleading for divine assistance in finding purpose.
Oh Lord will you help me spell my name
Seeking divine guidance to overcome personal challenges.
All I wish is the strength
Desiring strength to face challenges and pursue creative endeavors.
That gets me up again
Seeking motivation to create and persevere despite difficulties.
To write a thousand songs
Expressing a commitment to artistic expression through songwriting.
To run the million miles
Expressing a commitment to enduring hardships and challenges.
All I want is some self-respect
Desiring self-respect as a foundation for personal growth.
To become my friend
Aspiring to befriend oneself and build self-esteem.
Then I can move the moutains
Believing that with self-respect, one can overcome great challenges.
I would never climb
Rejecting challenges that are not worth facing.
I know it's just a stage
Acknowledging a difficult phase in life.
That I'm going through
Believing that challenges will always lead back to a higher power.
But somehow it'll always
Expressing a need for divine guidance in overcoming challenges.
Lead me begging to you
Understanding that challenges lead to seeking spiritual support.
Oh Lord will you help me spell my name
Reiterating the plea for divine assistance in finding purpose.
But still I'm hur ting the few
Expressing emotional pain inflicted on loved ones.
That I really love
Feeling like a fool for causing pain to those deeply cared for.
I feel like a fool
Expressing uncertainty about whether loved ones will understand.
Will they understand
Questioning if others will comprehend personal struggles.
Will they try to see
Questioning if others will make an effort to understand.
That it's so hard to be me
Highlighting the difficulty of being oneself and seeking empathy.
I know I'm such a fool
Admitting foolishness in feeling unhappy despite positive aspects.
To be unhappy now
Expressing persistent unhappiness despite external circumstances.
But every single day
Acknowledging increasing feelings of loneliness over time.
I feel more lonesome somehow
Pleading for assistance in overcoming personal struggles.
Oh please will you help me
Repeating the plea for help in finding purpose and happiness.
Oh please will you help me
Reiterating the request for assistance in overcoming challenges.
Oh please will you help me spell my name
Pleading for divine guidance to discover one's identity and purpose.
Oh Lord - will you help me find my way
Seeking divine guidance to navigate the path of life.
