My First Rodeo
Navigating Life's Rodeo: Whitney Rose's Revelations
Lyrics
I called my friends and family
I reached out to my friends and family.
Said come and say good-bye to me
Invited them to bid farewell to me.
That little old girl you used to know
Referring to a past version of myself.
Had to get up and go
Had to leave or change; a departure.
Gonna see some changes now
Anticipating upcoming changes.
Bound to happen anyhow
Changes are inevitable, bound to happen.
No one knows how or when so hold on tight
Uncertainty about how or when changes will occur.
Did you know, did you know?
Possibly addressing someone; seeking understanding.
When you left me all alone
Asking if awareness existed when left alone.
Did you know, did you know?
Reiteration of the inquiry about awareness.
That was my first rodeo
Describing the situation as a challenging experience.
Eyes I don't know watching me
Feeling observed by unknown eyes.
I close 'em and we all count to three
A collective countdown to face a challenge.
My heart was pounding like a drum
Intense heartbeat in the face of danger.
Beat ya here when danger's coming
Being ahead when confronting danger.
Everyone moves around so fast
Fast-paced movement of everyone around.
That ride would never last
A realization that the thrilling experience is brief.
Rock bottom was the ground as I fell down
Reaching a low point or rock bottom.
Did you know, did you know?
Repeating the question about awareness.
When you left me all alone
Reiteration of the impact of being left alone.
Did you know, did you know?
Repeating the question, emphasizing the experience.
That was my first rodeo
Emphasizing the challenging nature of the situation.
Did you know, did you know?
Further emphasizing the question about awareness.
When you left me all alone
Reiteration of the impact of solitude.
Did you know, did you know?
Repeating the question, highlighting the ordeal.
That was my first rodeo
Stressing the challenging nature of the experience.
Storms are brewing I can see
A metaphor for challenging times ahead.
Don't you worry about me
Assuring others not to be concerned about the speaker.
I'll be fine to hold my own
Expressing confidence in handling difficulties.
This ain't my first rodeo
Asserting experience in facing challenges.
