Speak
Finding My Voice: Unveiling the Meaning Behind 'Speak'
Lyrics
The time has come for me to speak
The moment has arrived for me to express myself verbally.
Uh, oh the time has come
An expression of realization that the time for speaking has come.
And while the silence picks on me
While remaining quiet or not speaking, there's a feeling of being targeted or picked on by silence.
I pray not be dumb
Hoping not to remain silent or unable to communicate.
So I am hunting for the words
Actively searching for appropriate words to communicate.
Just wait 'til I find some
Implying a need for patience until suitable words are found.
I need some syllables do you
Asking if someone knows where to find or obtain words or language to use.
Know where to get them from?
Seeking guidance or assistance in acquiring words or syllables.
When I am in my house alone
When alone at home, expressing thoughts or speeches takes a long time.
My speeches take a week
Personal speeches or expressions take an extended period to form.
But from my lips when you are near
When in the company of someone else, very few words are spoken or revealed.
A sound will seldom leak
Words or sounds are scarcely emitted when in close proximity to others.
When I was a little girl
Referring to a past time during childhood.
I coined a mighty text
Making or creating significant and powerful expressions or statements.
Looking back I blush to hear
Feeling embarrassed or self-conscious about what was previously expressed.
What I'd come out with next
Reflecting on past expressions and feeling self-conscious about their content.
It's now the time for me to speak
Reiterating the present need to communicate verbally.
But what if they talk back
Concern or worry about potential responses or reactions from others when speaking.
Oh when I open up my beak
An expression of vulnerability when about to speak.
Let's hope that I can quack
Hoping that the speaker can make some noise or express themselves adequately.
And if I do look out, beware
Warning others about the potential impact or difficulty in accepting the truth when spoken.
The truth is hard to take
Expressing the challenge of accepting the truth when it's conveyed.
And everything for all I care
Indifference towards consequences or what happens to everything as the speaker shares their truth.
Can jump into a lake, yeah
An indifferent attitude, implying a willingness to let everything go or disregard it.
It's now the time for me to speak
Reiterating the current moment to express oneself verbally.
But what if they talk back
Concern or worry about potential reactions when speaking.
Oh when I open up my beak
A repetition of vulnerability when about to speak.
Let's hope that I can quack, quack
Hoping for the ability to express oneself effectively or adequately.
