Lyrics
As far as I can remember
Reflecting on the past, expressing a long-standing perspective
Always been not for hire
Consistently avoiding being employed
Never meant for conformity
Rejecting conformity as a life principle
It doesn't seem to grow on me
Resistance to conformity is not diminishing over time
I don't want it
Expressing a lack of desire for something
I'd rather do this, all on my own
Preference for independent action and self-reliance
I don't need this
Not in need of a particular thing or situation
I want to make it, all on my own
Aspiring to achieve success independently
Learning fast to realize
Realization that freedom is invaluable
Freedom can't be compromised
Freedom is non-negotiable
Never lived for a mortgage
Rejecting conventional life choices like a mortgage
A free bird in a golden cage
Metaphor of being a free spirit in a constrained environment
I don't like it
Expressing dislike for something
I will get this, all on my own
Determination to achieve independently
I don't use this
Choosing not to utilize a particular resource or method
I'll get rid of it, all on my own
Commitment to eliminating unwanted elements independently
No time to waste
Emphasizing the value of time
No need to brake
Not slowing down or stopping
No care to age
Indifference towards aging
All to embrace
Embracing all aspects of life
Don't hesitate (don't hesitate)
Encouragement not to hesitate
Don't lose the faith (don't lose the faith)
Encouragement to maintain faith
Don't fear the wave (fear the wave)
Encouragement not to fear challenges
All to escape (escape-ape-ape)
Alluding to escaping constraints or limitations
Freelance has a price
Highlighting the cost of freelancing
You have to hang on tight
Stressing the need for perseverance in freelancing
Earning what you lose
Stating the necessity of earning back losses
Deadline is routine
Emphasizing routine and deadlines in freelancing
Commit to self-esteem
Emphasizing commitment to self-worth
Don't count the scratch and bruise
Acceptance of challenges and hardships
Got to give some blood
Metaphorical sacrifice for gaining sustenance
To get something to grub
Investing effort and sacrifice for survival
Down payment blues
Metaphor for facing financial challenges
My life is such
Describing life situation
And that way, I'm on my own
Emphasizing independence in living
I don't need much
Content with minimal needs
It fits me right and nothing's wrong
Feeling comfortable with one's life choices
No time to waste
Reiteration of the value of time
No need to brake
Continued momentum without slowing down
No care to age
Indifference towards aging
All to embrace
Embracing all aspects of life
Don't hesitate (don't hesitate)
Encouragement not to hesitate
Don't lose the faith (don't lose the faith)
Encouragement to maintain faith
Don't fear the wave (don't fear the wave)
Encouragement not to fear challenges
All to escape
Alluding to escaping constraints or limitations
I don't want it
Expressing a lack of desire for something
I don't need this
Not in need of a particular thing or situation
I don't like it, no
Expressing dislike for something
No, no, no
Repeated expression of refusal or rejection
