Embracing Change: Triumph from Struggle
Lyrics
I'm crawling out of my skin
I feel extremely uncomfortable or anxious.
I hope I get under yours
I desire to provoke a reaction or response from you.
So many times before
This has happened many times in the past.
But you still wanna know why
You still want to understand the reason behind my actions.
I won't just lay down and die
I won't give up easily.
What did you expect
What were you anticipating from me?
I think that I could guess
I believe I can make an educated guess.
But this weight is lifted and I'm like
The burden has been lifted, and I feel rejuvenated.
Back from the dead
I've overcome a significant challenge or adversity.
And I'm feeling kinda strange
I feel peculiar or different.
I'm not the same, and I think I like the change
I've undergone a change, and I'm embracing it.
Nothing lost, just cut away
I haven't lost anything; I've only removed what hindered me.
Nothing left to hinder me
There's nothing left to obstruct my progress.
Pushing on, stronger everyday
I continue to push forward and grow stronger.
Leaning into the wind that used to carry me
I'm facing challenges head-on, unlike before.
The last shot
A past experience or situation almost ended me.
Nearly killed me
I came close to death with the last obstacle.
Eternity lifted me again
Eternity or something timeless saved me once again.
Oh, how I want to be
I aspire to be something significant.
An offense, an unsettling presence in this life
I want to be a disruption or challenge in this existence.
Why'd you try to take me out?
Why did you attempt to eliminate me?
Why try to keep me down?
Why did you try to keep me suppressed?
To get my eyes off me
To divert my attention from myself.
Down each ugly street
Through difficult and unpleasant experiences.
Too many needs, too many
Too many wants, too many individuals in need.
Souls on their knees
Many souls are in a state of submission or desperation.
And where have I been?
I question my whereabouts or purpose.
Too much is me and mine
Too much focus on myself and what belongs to me.
Too much is wasting time
Wasting time on trivial matters.
With the cares of this life and now
With the burdens of life, and now I comprehend.
I understand and I'm
I understand, and I'm making progress.
I'm on my way. I feel like a man
I'm on a path to becoming a mature and confident individual.
And I, I think I like the change
I've embraced the change and like the person I'm becoming.
Nothing lost, just cut away
Nothing was lost; I only removed what held me back.
Nothing left to hinder me
No obstacles remain to impede my progress.
Pushing on, stronger everyday
I continue to advance and grow stronger daily.
Leaning into the wind that used to carry me
I face challenges that once carried me away with determination.
The last shot nearly killed me
The last challenge almost ended my journey.
Eternity lifted me again
Something timeless or eternal saved me once again.
Oh, how I want to be
I desire to be a significant and disruptive force.
An offense, an unsettling presence in this life
I aim to be an unsettling presence in this existence.
Why'd you try to take me out, why try to keep me down?
Why did you attempt to eliminate me, why try to keep me suppressed?
