Ghosts
Shake Off the Ghosts: A Journey of Redemption and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
I can't escape my past no matter what I do
I am unable to escape my past, regardless of my efforts.
My penance bares no reprieve and only sorrow insumes
My atonement offers no relief and only brings about sorrow.
Haunted by former self I count up all my mistakes
I am haunted by my previous self, reflecting on all my mistakes.
Clinched fist gripping tighter ever consumed by shame
My clenched fist tightens, consumed by shame.
Shake off the Ghosts of old
It's essential to rid oneself of the lingering influence of the past.
They only weigh you down
The burdens of the past weigh one down and hinder progress.
Reception's a long road
Reception or acceptance by others is a challenging journey.
Better start walking now
Initiate the journey of self-improvement now.
Folks tend to judge my name based on who I was
People judge me based on my past actions.
Those days are over now I know who I've become
I have evolved beyond my past self; I now know who I am.
Shake off the Ghosts of old
Release the lingering influence of the past for personal growth.
They only weigh you down
The weight of past actions can be a hindrance.
Reception's a long road
Acceptance or recognition is a challenging journey.
Better start walking now
Commence the journey of acceptance and recognition now.
Still every now and then those operations apparitions
Occasional memories of past actions linger like apparitions.
Creeping 'round in my head if nothing else I've learned
These memories persist, but at least I've gained knowledge from them.
To shake off the Ghosts of old
Continually strive to shake off the influence of the past.
They only weigh you down
The burdens of past actions can impede progress.
Reception's a long road
Acceptance and recognition by others require a persistent effort.
Better start walking now
Initiate the journey of acceptance and recognition immediately.
