Stampede
Love's Defiant Anthem: Stampede
Lyrics
I'm not calling to start a war
I have no intention of initiating a conflict.
But you keep pushing my buttons down to the core
Despite that, your actions are deeply affecting me emotionally.
I keep tryin' to play your game
I continue to engage in your challenges or dynamics.
But whether you're cheatin' or stealin' it's just the same
Whether you're deceiving or taking from me, the impact is similar.
You're never gonna find another one like me
There is no one else comparable to me.
Doesn't matter how much you beg or plead
Regardless of your pleas, it won't change the fact that I am unique.
You're never gonna find another one like me
Reiteration of uniqueness and a hint at the other person's obliviousness.
Girl, you got some blind eyes, can't you see?
Expressing frustration at the other person's apparent lack of perception.
Baby, we were made for each other
Asserting a belief in a special connection between the speaker and the other person.
Don't you ever let your mind drift to worry
Encouraging the other person not to worry and to be carefree.
Just let your hair down, carefree
Emphasizing the importance of enjoying the moment without concerns.
If anyone here gives you any trouble
If someone causes problems for you, I am prepared to act decisively.
I'll just have to break out my stampede
Introducing the metaphor of a stampede as a forceful response to challenges.
I'll break out my stampede
Repetition of the idea of unleashing a stampede, reinforcing the resolve to take action.
I'll break out my stampede
-You're never gonna find another one like me
Reiteration of the speaker's uniqueness and the futility of finding someone like them.
It doesn't matter how much you beg or plead
Repeat of the idea that pleading won't change the speaker's distinctiveness.
You're never gonna find another one like me
Reiteration of the speaker's uniqueness and frustration at the other person's lack of awareness.
Girl, you gotta be blind, can't you see?
Expressing frustration at the other person's apparent blindness to the uniqueness of the relationship.
Baby, we were made for each other
Reaffirmation of the belief in a special connection between the speaker and the other person.
Don't you ever let your mind drift to worry
Encouragement to stay carefree and not let worries occupy the mind.
Just let your hair down, carefree
Emphasis on the importance of enjoying life without burdens.
If anybody here gives you any trouble
If anyone causes trouble, the speaker is ready to respond forcefully.
I'll just have to break out my stampede
Reiteration of the idea of unleashing a stampede in response to challenges.
I'll break out my stampede
Repetition of the resolve to break out a stampede, emphasizing readiness for action.
I'll break out my stampede
-I'm not calling to start a war
Reiteration of the initial statement, emphasizing a desire to avoid conflict.
Let's not start a war
A plea to avoid starting a war, repeating the desire to maintain peace.
Let's not start a war
