The Weight
Embracing the Weight: Overcoming Struggles and Rediscovering Empowerment
Lyrics
It's hard to stay sober
Struggling to maintain sobriety.
When I'm feeling down
Emotional challenges making it difficult to stay sober.
Kinda like right now
Expressing the current emotional state.
And the days ahead
Anticipation of challenging times ahead.
Days become shorter
Time seems to pass quickly during difficult periods.
When I'm not around
Feeling a sense of isolation when not present.
I hate that I've shut myself out
Regret for withdrawing from others.
It's what I did
Reflecting on past actions of self-isolation.
The weight
The burden of emotional weight or guilt.
Oh the pressure in my bones
Intense pressure affecting the speaker's bones.
Feel like they're about to break
Sensation that the pressure might lead to a breaking point.
I'll never be sure if can't find my way
Uncertainty about the future if a way is not found.
Oh dare to live again
Encouragement to embrace life again.
Try to stay focused
Attempting to maintain concentration and clarity.
My soul tells me now
The speaker's inner self advising them.
Life seems to work itself out
Belief that life resolves itself over time.
Why fight against it
Questioning the need to resist life's natural course.
The weight
Reiteration of the emotional burden.
Oh the pressure in my bones
Continued emphasis on the intense pressure in bones.
Feel like they're about to break
Reiteration of the imminent breaking point.
I'll never be sure if can't find my way
Continued uncertainty about the future without direction.
Oh dare to dream again
Encouragement to have aspirations and hopes again.
But I won't give up now
Determination to persist despite challenges.
Cause I feel more empowered
Feeling stronger and more in control.
Than I ever was
A sense of empowerment surpassing previous states.
