lirik lagu allisawe - actualize

[verse 1]

i was shot from the womb in a natural birth
on the day of the earth
4/22
in a dim little room in a trailer home park
eyes lit with a spark
carpet sh~ggy blue

pop ached to break away, prayed to procreate
clawing out of oklahoma backwoods, high noon
pained he made his way, stacking bricks by day
plotting to bring home the moon

cuz it cannot be that our destiny
is living next to gangs and drug fiends
to survive we
tap the latter~day saints’ welfare
clothes threadbare, hang on a prayer

then tony robbins’ tapes
played in my dad’s brain on repeat
(on repeat)
promising a better fatе
aim for the apex, look up, name it
thе secret? say “i am,” hang a pic, claim it
god made you to be a giant, not compliant sheep
(affirm)
a lion, fated for high assignment, don’t you see?
(your worth)

yeah
turns out we can actualize…
we don’t gotta be confined to a life
robbing peter to pay paul to scr~pe by
find food, flee, fight if you have to, f~ck, then die

[chorus 1]

we
will rise
realize
and actualize

we
will lie
deny
our actual lives

[verse 2]

so i raised my eyes, aiming all the way up
striving~to~make everything better than enough
seeking to live my dreams, reach the peak
achieve every whim and bring in my kingdom
so i freed my best self through chemistry
then convened with gurus, to lead the way
whether rajneesh, maharaj ji, lgat
limiting beliefs i will obliterate

i don’t want it, i demand it
i expect to be a man expanded
with the perfect life, the perfect wife
there’s not a single speck of dust i won’t brush ’til i shine

all a game to make the character in my brain
fully stacked, six~pack abs, maxed~out stats, no pain
stealing fire from the divine
enlightenment will stabilize
until i…

…give rise to the shrine of me ~ hah!
refusing to believe the burdens of biology
possessed by a self~obsession
my fulfillable potential, unquestioned

i will break the chains, cleanse the grime
all you toxic people, f~ck outta my life
i fought from the bottom ~ for this sh~t
this is my trip
so lemme get what i wanna get
[chorus 2]

we
will rise
realize
and actualize

we
will lie
deny
our actual lives

[verse 3]

materially k!lling it, mentally i’m astute
spiritually superior, working the interior too
healing childhood wounds, addicted to breakthroughs
i got it great
while pop?
moved to his doom

on my way to “the top,” i watched, as he dropped
his spouse, lost
his house, gone
in for a shock, at 50, back at his mom’s
the docs peddled oxy ’til his body was a blob

all to cope with the back he broke
from bricks he stacked to pull
his family outta broke, playing his role
not building up a statue of his ego
and me? narcissistically seeking the steeple

desperate to be destined to break the mold
though it seems criminal to have it this incredible
while pop never rested in his soul, ever restless i hope
perfectibility has to be possible

so breach the ceiling, keep peeling to heal, and hopefully reveal
a feeling really appealing so i can finally still the wheels
but until then, every year trauma clears, ifs harmonized
all the while i’ve been fighting for highs, family’s denied

and my own dead father
never got to see the son that he brought up
just because he was a bit of a bummer
the basics of being a human have crumbled
and for what?

[bridge]

so you get bulletproof, cool, but for who?
you wanna be whole; that’s laudable, bro
wanna have it all though; improbable
but ya know what’s applaudable?
just play your role, there’s a lot of growth

don’t gotta grope for it or force it
your ordinary human story is plenty important
and the people you forfeit with your poor comportment
as you actualize… they’re left to die while you indulge
in polishing brass
on the path
we forgot the life we have
ironic
all we ever wanted
was to love what we got
(to see) we are the arrival that we sought

a brother, a lover, a son
it has ever been thus, under the sun
a father, an uncle, a friend
all has ever been here, i stand

[chorus 3]

we
will rise
realize
our actual lives

we
won’t hide
deny
actual, not actualized
