WATER RISING
Navigating the Depths: Tekowa Lakica's 'Water Rising' Meaning
Lyrics
I've gotta get
I need to escape
Out of my head
Overwhelmed and need to clear my thoughts
Pressure's intense
Feeling intense stress or pressure
Cant even speak about it
Unable to talk about the pressure
My chest is lead
Feeling burdened and weighed down
My words unsaid
Words left unspoken or unexpressed
Vision is red
Seeing things with intense emotion, possibly anger
So far gone but you still tried to reach me the same
Despite being distant, someone is trying to connect with me
If I could I would do my best and try to explain
Expressing a desire to explain but facing difficulties
But all I see is the water rising
Observing the water level rising, a metaphor for challenges
All I feel is the water rising
Feeling the imminent pressure and challenges intensify
Up for air; it comes on again
Struggling for breath; challenges resurface repeatedly
And it hits so hard but it's in my head
Challenges are mentally impactful and persistent
And it spins me 'round like I know that it's going to
Challenges causing disorientation and anticipation
Up and down like a roller coaster
Experiencing ups and downs, similar to a roller coaster
But all I see is the water rising
Focus remains on the rising challenges
All I feel is the water rising
Intense emotions persist as challenges increase
Up for air; it comes on again
Continued struggle for breath and challenges recurring
And it hits so hard but it's in my head
Impactful challenges persistently affecting thoughts
And it spins me 'round like I know that it's going to
Challenges causing disorientation and anticipation (repeated)
Up and down like a roller coaster
Experiencing the highs and lows of life's challenges
