Going Under
Rising Above the Shadows: Embracing Life's Challenges with Skies Behind
Lyrics
If I left here
Contemplating leaving the current situation or environment.
Do you think they'd notice?
Questioning if departure would be noticed by others.
Been caught up in this life for so long dear
Feeling deeply entrenched in this lifestyle for a significant period.
Now I've outgrown it
Having surpassed or matured beyond the current situation.
But I'm not going under
Asserting resilience despite challenges, not succumbing.
I'm alive
Emphasizing being alive, not defeated by circumstances.
They can't hold us back any longer
Referring to overcoming barriers imposed by others.
They can't kill your pride
Resistance against having one's dignity or self-worth destroyed.
Tear me down, I'm here again
Readiness to rebuild despite being torn down.
Oh I've broken where I couldn't bend
Having experienced emotional breakdowns where resilience was insufficient.
Forced to face the facts in life
Being compelled to confront harsh realities.
Want something different, but too scared to try
Desiring change but feeling frightened to pursue it.
Why do you do this to me?
Questioning why someone is causing distress.
You're always acting so mean
Perceiving consistent unkind behavior from someone.
Right when I needed a sign
Seeking a signal or guidance during a difficult time.
Just a little conceit
Expressing a slight amount of self-importance or arrogance.
You know I'm taking a chance here. You know that this isn't me
Acknowledging taking a risk that is out of character.
And I can't act this way for the rest of my life, I can barely stay the same for one more night
Feeling unable to sustain current behavior or lifestyle.
But I'm not going under
Reaffirming resilience despite adversity.
I'm alive
Reiterating being alive and undefeated.
They can't hold us back any longer
Asserting resilience against external constraints.
They can't kill your pride
Stating the resilience of personal dignity against destruction.
I'm not going under
Repetition of not succumbing despite challenges.
I'm alive
Emphasizing vitality and perseverance.
They can't hold us back any longer
Highlighting resilience against external limitations.
They can't kill your pride
Reinforcing the resistance against destruction of pride.
I'm not going under
Reaffirming resilience and vitality.
I'm alive
Reiteration of being alive and undefeated.
They can't hold us back any longer
Stating resistance against ongoing constraints.
They can't kill your pride
Asserting the endurance of personal dignity.
