Finite
Embracing Finite Grace: A Reflection on Womanhood and the Search for Peace
Lyrics
I'm not every woman
I acknowledge that I do not represent every woman.
It's not all in me
I cannot possess or contain everything within me.
I’m proud and guarded
I take pride in myself and am cautious about revealing my vulnerabilities.
When it comes to my needs
I am reserved when it comes to addressing my own needs.
Try to keep the whole thing rolling
I strive to keep all aspects of my life in motion.
Try to keep an on time train
I aim to maintain punctuality and order in my life.
This frenetic fascination's
This intense fascination with constant activity is causing distress.
Really driving me insane
The obsession with busyness is significantly affecting my mental well-being.
Anybody feel that?
A plea for connection, asking if others can relate to the overwhelming pressure and stress.
Anybody feel that?
-Anybody feel that?
-What God meant by woman
Reflecting on the divine purpose of womanhood.
I’m hard pressed to find
Struggling to comprehend the intended meaning of womanhood by God.
I'm chasing paper dreams
Pursuing materialistic dreams that are insubstantial.
And a guilt undefined
Feeling a vague sense of guilt without a clear cause.
Fighting to stay younger
Engaged in a battle to resist aging.
Trying to stay thin and in control
Striving to maintain control over one's body and life.
Searching for a magic formula
Searching for a solution to bring comfort to our inner selves.
A thing to soothe our souls
Yearning for a magical remedy to soothe our souls.
Wonderin' where the peace went
Expressing the loss of inner peace and wondering where it has gone.
Wonderin' where the peace went
-Wonderin' where the peace went
-I'm finite I come to an end
Acknowledging personal limitations and recognizing an endpoint to oneself.
I'm finite I come to an end
-Try to keep the whole thing rollin'
Reiterating the struggle to maintain a busy and organized life, acknowledging its toll.
Try to keep an on time train
-This frenetic fascination's
-Really drivin' me insane
-Anybody feel that?
Asking again if others can empathize with the overwhelming feeling described.
Anybody feel that?
-Anybody feel that?
-I'm finite, I come to an end
Affirming the finite nature of the self and the inability to pretend otherwise.
I’m finite, I cannot pretend
-I'm finite, I come to an end
-I’m finite, I cannot pretend
-
