Hard To Handle
Journey Through Shadows: Zeme Sounds' Poetic Reflections on Life
Lyrics
There was no love at first now I feel enamored
Expressing a lack of love initially, now feeling deeply captivated.
I sit alone in my head get all sour
Reflecting on solitude in the mind, experiencing bitterness.
I sit and think about my dreams for hours
Contemplating dreams for extended periods.
I just keep praying God please give me power
Praying to God for strength and empowerment.
Tell me why I'm still alive what's in store for me
Questioning the purpose of still being alive and pondering the future.
Can you tell me why I was born to fly can you answer me
Asking about the reason for being born to fly and seeking answers.
Lately I live with genocide inside my mind tread carefully
Living with thoughts of genocide in the mind, cautioning others.
I been through so much shit and how you were there for me
Acknowledging challenges faced and questioning support received.
Always getting high there was never peace
Describing a history of seeking solace in substances rather than peace.
I been locked in chains and now I think I lost the key
Expressing a sense of being trapped and losing a sense of direction.
Been getting comfortable alone so please don't bother me
Finding comfort in solitude, requesting not to be disturbed.
Been getting close to finding peace whenever I go to sleep
Approaching a state of inner peace during sleep.
I'll scratch and climb and die to reach the peak
Willing to strive and face challenges to reach personal peaks.
The recipe I must complete The rest of me
Reference to completing a personal recipe or self-discovery.
I see police arresting me try to get away and they wrestle me
Describing encounters with law enforcement and resistance.
I been wrestling for a lil while it seems yeah
Reflecting on a prolonged struggle or conflict.
How else am I supposed to feed these demons
Questioning how to satisfy inner demons.
They've really stayed a while and now they festering
Noting the persistence and worsening of inner conflicts.
I've swallowed it for a lil while and now it's resurfacing
Acknowledging the temporary suppression of issues now resurfacing.
so pissed off but i don't wanna make a scene
Expressing frustration but avoiding causing a disturbance.
And now I don't feel like I feel no more
Describing a change in emotional state, feeling numb.
I don't feel what I used to
Acknowledging a shift in emotional sensitivity.
I don't feel no more
Reiterating a lack of emotional response or feeling.
I don't feel no more
-There was no love at first now I feel enamored
Repetition of earlier themes and emotions.
I sit alone in my head get all sour
-I sit and think about my dreams for hours
-I just keep praying God please give me power
-Tell me why I'm still alive what's in store for me
-Sum bout this poetry that's pushing me to achieve
Attributing motivation to poetry, seeking personal achievement.
I can't keep rocking with it it's not pushing me to my dreams yeah
Frustration with poetry not aligning with personal aspirations.
Bottle up my trauma then imma shoot it into a sleeve
Symbolizing releasing trauma and prioritizing genuine connections.
I'll cut off everybody just to have a genuine team
Willingness to sever connections for the sake of authenticity.
Cuz these days are getting harder ain't nothing what it seems
Expressing the increasing difficulty of life, contrasted with appearances.
And these nights are getting longer with hours lost of sleep
Describing prolonged nights and the toll on mental well-being.
I'm really tired of getting stronger my mind is feeling weak
Tired of becoming stronger, desiring mental ease.
Feels like I'm finally getting stronger I'm finding mental ease so please don't wait on me
Feeling a gradual improvement in mental strength and requesting understanding.
I hate it that I carry all this weight on me
Expressing burden and dislike for carrying emotional weight.
I really hate it that I give away my heart for free
Regret over freely giving away emotions and heart.
I was so careless now I'm waiting on my heart to freeze
Reflecting on past carelessness and waiting for emotional numbness.
I'm still surprised that my heart strong enough to be with me
Surprised at the resilience of the heart despite challenges.
If you cut me open I bet my heart would barely bleed
Metaphorical expression of emotional resilience.
I been trying so hard for so long to find the missing piece
Long-term effort to find completeness or fulfillment.
Everybody pushing me to see the good things but You cannot make me
Resisting pressure to see positivity, emphasizing individual perspective.
Spend a day in my shoes you'll feel My heart aching
Challenging others to experience personal struggles.
There was no love at first now I feel enamored
Reiteration of earlier emotions and themes.
I sit alone in my head get all sour
-I sit and think about my dreams for hours
-I just keep praying God please give me power
-Tell me why I'm still alive what's in store for me yeah
-I swear it's something bout this poetry
Repetition of the impact of poetry on personal choices.
I'll cut off everybody just to have a genuine team
-Cuz these days are getting harder
