True to Myself
Embracing Authenticity: Ziggy Marley's Anthem to Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Life has come a long way since yesterday, I say
Reflecting on the journey of life and how it has changed since the past.
And its not the same old thing over again, I say
Emphasizing that life is not repetitive but constantly evolving.
Just do what you feel and don't you fool yourself, I say
Encouraging authenticity and advising against self-deception.
'Cause I can't make you happy unless, I am I say I say I
Stating the importance of self-contentment and the inability to make others happy if not true to oneself.
Got to be true to myself
Repeating the need to stay true to oneself for personal fulfillment.
Got to be true to myself
-Got to be true to myself
-Got to be true to myself
-Day in day out I've asked many questions, I say
Expressing the ongoing quest for understanding through life's challenges.
Only to find the truth it never changes, I say
Asserting that the truth remains constant despite the questioning.
If you don't deal with it it keeps killing you a little by little, I say
Warning about the consequences of avoiding and not dealing with difficult truths.
Call me selfish if you will my life I alone can live, I say I say I
Defending the right to prioritize oneself and one's life.
Got to be true to myself
Reiterating the importance of staying true to oneself despite external pressures.
Got to be true to myself
-Got to be true to myself (in a way all)
-Got to be true to myself
-I don't care if it hurts
Expressing a willingness to endure pain for the sake of authenticity.
I'm tired of lies and all these games
Rejecting falsehoods and manipulative games in relationships.
I've reached a point in life no longer can I be this way
Reaching a point in life where one can no longer conform to inauthentic ways.
Don't come crying to me I too have shed my share of tears
Declining to offer comfort to those who have contributed to one's own pain.
I'm moving on yes I'm grooving on well I'm finally free I've
Moving on from the past and embracing newfound freedom.
Got to be true to myself
Continuing the emphasis on being true to oneself and finding personal liberation.
Got to be true to myself
-Got to be true to myself
-Got to be true to myself
-Got to be true
Repeating the call to stay true to oneself with emphasis on personal integrity.
Got to be true
-Got to be true to myself (in a way all)
-Got to be true
Concluding with a final declaration of the necessity to be true to oneself.
Got to be true
-Got to be true to myself
