Just Be
Embracing Life's Struggles: "Just Be" by Tryingtogetby
Lyrics
I'm back and it's been a tuff full of years
Reflecting on a challenging period of several years.
A fistful of joints and a ton of cheap beers
Mentioning reliance on marijuana and alcohol.
Conquering demons and defeating my fears
Overcoming personal struggles and facing fears.
Learning I don't need to reason to know why I'm here
Realization that understanding one's purpose doesn't always require reasoning.
Or why I'm weird or some would say unique
Acknowledging personal uniqueness despite societal views.
From struggle of living and trying to eat
Struggling to survive and sustain oneself.
Your hate sticks around like food in my teeth
Dealing with lingering negativity directed towards oneself.
But I keep PMA like toothpicks on me
Maintaining a positive mental attitude despite challenges.
Believe in your dreams no matter what it seems
Encouragement to believe in dreams despite obstacles.
Under difficult times frayed and burst at the seams
Struggling during tough times and feeling overwhelmed.
Stay true to your craft and love in your heart becuse if you got passion it belongs in your art
Emphasizing the importance of passion in one's art or work.
From the start the world is gonna do it's best to doubt you
Awareness of society's tendency to doubt individuals' abilities.
Never let them know the moves you're about to
Keeping plans and intentions private while taking action.
Unleash while they talk smack and stay still
Continuing forward despite criticism and negativity.
Nothings stronger than the power of free will
Belief in the strength of personal willpower.
If I could wake up and start again
Expressing a desire for a fresh start if possible.
I wouldn't wanna be me
Discontentment with the current self or situation.
Another chance at holding on on
Wishing for another opportunity to hold on or persevere.
Hold on just to be
Emphasizing the importance of simply existing or being.
Just be
Encouragement to accept oneself and one's circumstances.
Ok with the world
Acceptance of a world in chaos or decline.
That's crumbling
Commentary on the state of the world falling apart.
Time to wake up time to get down
Feeling the need to wake up and face reality.
Strap on my boots and walk into town
Preparing to engage with the world or society.
Light up a smoke, scrape for a toke
Referencing the act of smoking marijuana.
Free as a dog on it's way to the pound
Feeling free yet heading toward an uncertain future.
Deal with the problems deal with the mess
Addressing and confronting personal issues or challenges.
Can't avoid it or let it get the best
Recognizing the necessity of dealing with problems.
Of me you or anyone less
Emphasizing the importance of not letting challenges overcome oneself or others.
Wear the past like a rip in my vest
Wearing past experiences like a visible scar.
Unless there's a better way to be
Searching for a better way to live or exist.
If you listen to me then you might agree
Encouraging others to consider an alternative perspective.
Get in a car and drive down the road
Advocating for spontaneous actions and risk-taking.
Use your rent money on gasoline
Suggesting living in the moment despite financial risks.
Everyone should live before they die
Asserting the importance of experiencing life fully.
If they don't why do they call it life
Rhetorical question about the purpose of life if not lived fully.
No second chances, just one to find
Highlighting the importance of seizing opportunities.
We are just Tryingtogetby
Identifying with the struggle of just getting by in life.
