Heavy on Me
Bearing Life's Weight: Whiskey Myers' 'Heavy on Me' Meaning Unveiled
Lyrics
And I know that ya been worried about my drinkin', but
Acknowledging concern over drinking habits
I been feelin' alright
Feeling physically fine despite injuries
It's just a couple of little ol' stitches
Referring to minor injuries needing stitches
And my head's starting to feel just fine
Recovery from head injury
And ain't nobody got time just to sit around
No time for self-pity, busy with responsibilities
And worry about poor ol' me
Not wanting others to worry about the singer
I gotta build this house, got babies on the way, got mouths to feed
Responsibilities to build a home and provide for family
Go on and give it to me
Accepting challenges or burdens
Go on ahead and put the heavy on me
Willingness to take on burdens or challenges
Go on ahead and put the heavy on
-I asked You once, if I can bear all the weight
Seeking strength from a higher power to endure difficulties
Put the heavy on my shoulders nda see
-I made a promise, I'm her mountain of stone
-Won't be alone as long I can breath
-You like to work in mysterious ways
Belief in facing challenges as part of a divine plan
Served me up a slice of G-O-D
-I like a challenge so I better start ownin' up to what ya got in store for me
-Go on and give it to me
Repeated willingness to accept burdens
Go on ahead and put the heavy on me
-Go on ahead and put the heavy on
-Bloodline, it's in your last name
Inherited traits of resilience and responsibility
Daddy raised me the same way
-That I'll do you one day
-And I can handle a little pressure on me
Readiness to handle pressure and take on others' burdens
Take the load off the feeble ones
-And pass it my way
-I got bills, got mouths to feed
Financial responsibilities and willingness to face challenges with faith
Let's pack on and we'll see Lord
-If You're bettin' on me (bettin' on me)
-So go on ahead and put the heavy on me
Repeatedly accepting the weight of burdens
Go on ahead and put the heavy on me
-Go on ahead and put the heavy on me
-Go on ahead and put the heavy on me
-Go on ahead and put the heavy on
-Ha, ha, ha
Emphasizing the imposition of burdens
You put the heavy on me
-Ha, ha, ha
-You put the heavy on me
-Ha, ha, ha (heavy, heavy, put it on me, go to put it on me)
-The heavy on me
-Ha, ha, ha (heavy, heavy, put it on me, go to put it on me)
-You put the heavy on me
-Ooh
Expressing the weight of the burdens
