Lyrics

I've got my head on straight now

I have a clear understanding or perspective now.

As straight as it can be

My understanding is as clear as it can be considering the circumstances.

With the world being what it is

Given the state of the world, with all its challenges.

And all that I have left is a sense of direction

All that remains for me is a sense of direction.

Telling me it's safe to believe

This direction assures me that it's safe to believe in something.


That everything is coming around

Things are improving, and there's a positive turn of events.

And all the time we spend on the ground

The time spent facing difficulties on the ground.

Is still six feet from defeat

Despite challenges, we are still a considerable distance from total defeat.


Silence, come and rest deep within my soul

A plea for silence to bring peace to the soul.

Cause I can't move on, I can't move on, on my own

The inability to move forward alone.

The truth is I'm not as fearless as I used to be

An acknowledgment of diminished fearlessness.

So what I need is one deep breath so I can breathe out bravery

Expressing a need for a moment of courage and bravery.


I've got my hands cleaned up now

My hands are clean, symbolizing a fresh start or purification.

As clean as they can be with 27 being what it is

Despite being 27, acknowledging the challenges of that age.

And all that I have left is a sense of redemption

All that remains for me is a sense of redemption.

Telling me it's safe to believe

This redemption assures me that it's safe to believe in something.


That everything is coming around

A continuation of the positive change in circumstances.

And all the time we spend on the ground

The time spent facing difficulties on the ground.

Is still six feet from defeat

Despite challenges, we are still a considerable distance from total defeat.


I've seen that even the dark cannot put to death the smallest star

Even in the darkest times, the smallest spark of hope cannot be extinguished.

And I'd consider what's hardest to be worth gold if we can survive it

Challenges are valuable if we can overcome them.


Silence, come and rest deep within my soul

A plea for silence to bring peace to the soul.

Cause I can't move on, I can't move on, on my own

The inability to move forward alone.

The truth is I'm not as fearless as I used to be

An acknowledgment of diminished fearlessness.

So what I need is one deep breath so I can breathe

Expressing a need for a moment of courage and bravery.

Yeah, what I need is one deep breath so I can breathe out bravery

Reiterating the need for a deep breath to exhale bravery.
