Evil Eye
Defying Darkness: Shannon Mitchell's Resilient Anthem Against Betrayal
Lyrics
Reading all the things
Reflecting on past conversations and interactions
That I have said to you
Doesn't compare to the treatment received
Doesn't even compare to
Contrasting the speaker's actions to the mistreatment endured
To what you put me through
Highlighting the difficulty faced due to the other person's actions
You think I'll come running back
Belief that the person expects the speaker to return despite the mistreatment
You're pretty confident
The other person's strong certainty about the speaker's return
But I made up my mind
Determined decision not to lose oneself for the sake of the other person
I won't lose me over you
Maintaining caution to avoid being heard or harmed
Tiptoe so they don't hear you
Being cautious due to past experiences and upbringing
Stay guarded or they'll hurt you
Learning to guard oneself to prevent harm from others
That's what we was raised to learn
Lessons instilled in upbringing about dealing with others
They'll fake it until you believe them
Others pretend until their lies are believed
Constantly tryna please them
Constantly trying to satisfy or meet others' expectations
You can't cure their hate it's terminal
Their hatred is unchangeable and severe
Do you have the eye that watches me
Wondering if someone is watching with envy or malice
They're not crystal blue they're dark
The eyes aren't innocent; they hold darkness and pain
And they hide in misery
Their suffering is concealed behind a facade
If you don't that's hard to find
If you can't see it, it's challenging to recognize
You must be one of a kind
You're unique if you're not influenced by envy or malice
I wish I pray that every evil eye
Hoping that negative intentions directed towards the speaker will cease
Goes blind
Expressing a wish for harmful intentions to disappear
Leaving cause it's hard
Leaving a challenging situation can lead to loss
Will only make you lose
Staying and persevering is crucial
Do what you can to win
Fighting against judgment and negativity
No matter how they look at you
Despite judgments, staying true to oneself is essential
Rather be judged for being real
Prefer being criticized for authenticity than being loved for falsehood
Than loved for being fake
Accepting criticism confidently and moving forward
And I take that in my stride
Every step forward is accompanied by this mindset
For every stride I take
Continuously moving ahead with this attitude
Tiptoe so they don't hear you
Remaining cautious to avoid harm or negative influence
Stay guarded or they'll hurt you
Protecting oneself from potential harm
That's what we was raised to learn
Lessons from upbringing about dealing with others' falsehood
They'll fake it until you believe them
Others pretend until their lies are believed
Constantly tryna please them
Constantly trying to meet others' expectations or please them
You can't cure their hate it's terminal
Their hatred is unchangeable and severe
Do you have the eye that watches me
Wondering if someone is watching with envy or malice
They're not crystal blue they're dark
The eyes aren't innocent; they hold darkness and pain
And they hide in misery
Their suffering is concealed behind a facade
If you don't that's hard to find
If you can't see it, it's challenging to recognize
You must be one of a kind
You're unique if you're not influenced by envy or malice
I wish I pray that every evil eye
Hoping that negative intentions directed towards the speaker will cease
Goes blind
Expressing a wish for harmful intentions to disappear
Goes blind
Reinforcing the desire for harmful intentions to vanish
Goes blind
Reiterating the hope for the disappearance of harmful intentions
Goes blind
Repeating the wish for harmful intentions to vanish
