In this poignant collaborative piece, Selah Sue and Damso delve into the complexities of personal struggle and emotional turmoil. The lyrics express themes of compromised self-worth and the disillusionment of seeking validation—"Sold them my soul tonight"—highlighting the sacrifices made for fleeting attention. The interplay between Selah Sue’s conflict-laden introspections and Damso’s depictions of inner turmoil, such as "La colère monte" (anger rising), serves to underscore the depth of their emotional catharsis. The narrative structure critiques societal pressures and the difficulty of maintaining autonomy, culminating in a defiant assertion of reclaiming control: "Watch me takin over this." The repeated refrain, "I wanted you to know," encapsulates a desperate need for acknowledgment amid progressive self-empowerment. #EmotionalTurmoil #SelfEmpowerment
