Still You Speak
Defiant Voices: Unveiling Self-Actualization Amidst Discord
Lyrics
Your plans are not the ones I've got
Your plans are not aligned with mine
Some things discouraged
Some things have caused discouragement
Exceptional miscarriage
An exceptional failure or loss
Missing out, blissing out
Missing opportunities, experiencing bliss
Covering my eyes with doubt
Feeling uncertain and skeptical
Experienced subsistence
Experiencing basic survival
No casual frame of reference
Lacking a casual point of reference
But still you speak and I half-listen
Despite our differences, you continue to speak, and I only partially pay attention
High self-esteem torn at the seams
Confidence in oneself is falling apart
Speak into being
Speaking things into existence
Self-actualized dreaming
Realizing one's full potential through dreams
Suggesting, unhelping
Suggesting ideas without being helpful
Consistently complaining
Consistently expressing dissatisfaction
Insulting, repulsing
Insulting and repulsing behavior
Big brother patronizing
Patronizing behavior like a big brother
But still you speak, and I'm left seething
Despite your words, I am left feeling intense anger
Your perspective's so clearly out of place
Your perspective is clearly not in the right context
And I'm talking to a wall while you're looking at a face
I feel like I'm talking to a wall while you are ignoring me
But whether you like it or not
Regardless of your opinion, I have made my decision
I've made my mind up
I've made up my mind, whether you agree or not
And whether you like it or not
I am moving forward, regardless of your approval
I'm on my way
My path is set, and I'm proceeding
Whether you like it or not
Despite objections, I've declared "enough"
I've said "enough"
Regardless of your feelings, I've made a firm decision
And whether you like it or not
Despite your approval, I will be fine
I'll be okay
I will be okay, irrespective of your opinion
