Lyrics
Why'd I think you could heal my pain?
Questioning why the person believed they could alleviate the singer's pain.
I'm enchained in my ways
Expressing being confined or restrained in personal behavior.
I guess I thought I would forget about what's haunting
Reflecting on the hope to forget troubling memories or experiences.
But I'm just left to remember another body
Realizing the difficulty in forgetting past relationships or encounters.
I guess I really just forgot it's never gone
Acknowledging the persistent nature of certain memories or emotions.
Now, I'm still left with my pride after the fall
Feeling a sense of pride even after facing a setback or failure.
Fall into my arms, rip my heart out
Inviting someone to be close and emotionally vulnerable.
Grip it hard, I'll press no charge
Willingness to endure emotional pain without seeking retribution.
Come leave a mark next to my scars
Asking for a visible reminder of shared experiences, even if they are painful.
I can't forget 'bout the best part (You feel me?)
Highlighting the importance of not forgetting the positive aspects of a relationship.
I would've got to get the attention I keep on gettin'
Expressing the desire for attention despite having received it before.
And that's with our without the money from my gift, like it's my present
Stating that attention is valued, whether it comes with financial rewards or not.
It's my presence, like my aura to my inner that I'm lettin' out
Describing the release of inner emotions or vibes to the outside world.
Why do they keep on trapping me in them legs that they spreadin' out?
Feeling trapped or confined by the actions of others.
Why do I say I learn just to have all them lessons turn back?
Questioning the reversal of learned lessons and experiences.
I gotta get the message and not only say, "I heard that"
Emphasizing the need to understand and internalize messages rather than just hearing them.
Words that I don't understand until I feel it hurt
Acknowledging the difficulty in grasping the meaning of certain words until they cause pain.
Still a person, or Angel-King in better words
Asserting humanity and portraying oneself as a benevolent figure.
In better words, from the wounded healer
Referring to the singer as a wounded healer, someone who helps others despite personal struggles.
With or without the church, I stand with my forgiver
Expressing commitment to forgiveness regardless of religious affiliation.
And you stand with me, for better or for worse
Affirming mutual support in both good and bad times.
Why'd I think you could heal my pain?
Repeating the initial question about the potential to heal emotional pain.
I'm enchained in my ways
Reiterating a sense of being confined or restrained in personal behavior.
I guess I thought I would forget about what's haunting

But I'm just left to remember another body
