Taproot – I

I've come to grips, come to grips, unreality through fatality
Realized as how much happiness brings to me
Fuck!

Lately, doubt and worries inflicted my mind
With an illness of ego, the worst of its kind
Been so busy, unhappy unnerved
I can see my destiny is chasing me
I'm finally happy and ready to go

I had a one night stand with myself last night
The fright of a lifetime
I've once again I have proven my strength to myself on my own

Lately, doubt and worries inflicted my mind with an illness
The worst of its kind
Been so busy unhappy unnerved
I can see my destiny is chasing me
I'm finally happy and ready to go

I had a one night stand with myself last night
The fright of a lifetime
I've once again I have proven my strength to myself on my own

I had a one night stand with myself last night
The fright of a lifetime
I've once again I have proven my strength to myself on my own

I had a one night stand with myself last night
The fright of a lifetime
I've once again I have proven my strength to myself on my own

I had a one night stand with myself last night
The fright of a lifetime
I've once again I have proven my strength

    General CommentTaproot has become one of my fave bands. This song got me started....I agree its about inner sorrows and dealing with the past...just starting over...and finding yourself.

    General Commentthis is a great song to listen to when you're really confused about yourself, because its all about contridictions in how you view yourself and your current situation. its so good.

    General CommentI really like this song. It's exactly how i feel a lot of the time.
    As for it's meaning, I think it's about how you hate the way you are but you don't change because you don't know any other way to be. I hope that makes sense.

    General CommentIt's like he's finally realizing that how much self love he DOES have is equally choked by the negative feels toward himself. He loves himself sometimes and he hates himself sometimes. It's all the same- and its the normal feelings when you get disapointed. You will always disapoint yourself, and hes showing everyone that with this song. that your not perfect, and that its okay to hate yourself--but to first make sure that you know who your hating! he says "i think whats done is done and i cant complain, anymore" is sort of telling himself to get over his hate. he cant complain because he has it good, very good.

    General Commenti was just listening to that song and come to think of it the way he sings it, its like he doesnt establish weather its "i hate myself sometimes....i love myself" or "i hate myself.....sometimes i love myself" so he leaves that to be discovered from the rest of the album

    General CommentMore than him having it good. I think it's like it's in the past. Dwelling on it, won't do anything but make him feel worse. You have move on and learn from your mistakes. And it's okay to not like yourself sometimes. It's stepping back from your perception and bettering yourself. Realizing your not what you thought, and realizing their is alot of room for growth. This song is beautiful it's melodic and then hard and it's like every inch of emotion he's feeling, you feel. Let yourself feel let yourself love let yourself hate. Emotions aren't supposed to make sense and it lets you know you're alive.... finding yourself thru all the drama all the bullshit knowing who you are... and Knowing what you have..and knowing how to feel.
