Trying to Catch Up With the World
by
Saint Asonia
This lyrical composition delves into the struggles faced by individuals marginalized by society. The narrative captures the internal and external battles of two distinct characters who are rendered powerless by external forces. The first verse explores a man paralyzed by indecision and societal pressure, while the second sheds light on a woman fighting against systemic neglect. The recurring theme of "trying to catch up with the world" symbolizes the futile effort to align oneself with societal expectations and norms. Central to the piece is the critique of hypocrisy, as expressed in the chorus, highlighting the failure of the weak to adhere to their professed values. Ultimately, the song underscores the pervasive sense of alienation and the insurmountable distance from the desired state of belonging or acceptance. #Alienation #SocietyCritique #Struggle
