Good Woman
Embracing Grace: Unveiling the Depths of a Good Woman's Journey
Lyrics
Will you say what you want
Expressing a desire for open communication
And you never go back
Commitment to moving forward without retreat
My song is a song
Describing the personal nature of the song
Even buried in the black
Metaphorically addressing challenges or difficulties
Well, I cover my mouth
Symbolizing self-restraint and resilience
And I straighten my back
-Well, I cover my mouth
-And I straighten my back
-I'm a good woman
Affirmation of being a virtuous woman, emphasis on kindness
I'm a good woman
-Be kind
-I'm a good woman
-Erased in the light
Feeling overlooked or ignored in the brightness of attention
I feel like a fool
Expressing vulnerability and a sense of foolishness
'Cause a game isn't fun
Highlighting the importance of knowing the rules in relationships
If I never know the rules
-And you're measuring out
-Becoming of cruel
-And you say what you say
Conveying the impact of hurtful words and rejection
And you send me away
-Now you only like
Hinting at changing feelings or preferences
I'm a good woman
Reiteration of being a good woman despite challenges
I'm a good woman
-Surrender is sweet
Exploring the themes of surrender and forgiveness
Forgiveness divine
-But who will build statues of me
Questioning recognition and legacy after leaving
When I leave you all behind
-And I'm carrying weight
Acknowledging emotional burden without ownership
But I know it's not mine
-With half a heart it's hard to stop
Describing the difficulty of stopping with only half a heart
But I feel as though
-I'm a good woman
Reaffirming goodness despite challenges, with a call for acknowledgment
I'm a good woman
-I'm a good, good woman (come on)
-I'm a good woman
Emphasizing the goodness and strength within
I'm a good woman
Repetition for emphasis on being a good woman
I'm a good woman
-I'm a good, good woman
-I'm a good woman
Final affirmation of being a good woman
