Juice
Anna Wise Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Break bread with shamans
Show way to others but give them space
Does the fruit give you it's juice?
Squeeze it real tight
Somebody said, "I like what I like"
You can't take back the change
If you are afraid of change
Then all there will be is change
Free as you wanna be
Anything goes it's your reality
And in between
Here let me wash your brain
Lock it up in a bougie museum and pay for a peek
Doesn't seem impossible to change (change)
You can't take back the change
If you are afraid of change (don't be afraid)
Then all there will be is change
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
Fly fast down furrowing brows
Break bread with shamans
Show way to others but give them space
Does the fruit give you it's juice?
Squeeze it real tight
Somebody said, "I like what I like"
Doesn't seem impossible to change (change)
You can't take back the change
If you are afraid of change (don't be afraid)
Then all there will be is change
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change, change)
(Change)
The lyrics of Anna Wise's song "Juice" are open to interpretation but seem to invite the listener to reflect on the power of change and the importance of personal growth. The first verse suggests the idea of breaking with tradition and seeking new experiences, represented by the image of flying fast and meeting shamans. The second verse poses the question of whether one can truly change and overcome their fears, with the implication that change requires effort and self-reflection. The refrain reinforces this theme by stating that change is a constant, and if one resists it, all they will be left with is change.
The use of fruit and juice as metaphors may suggest the idea of extracting the essence or potential of life, and the need to embrace new possibilities instead of clinging to the familiar. The line "Here let me wash your brain / Lock it up in a bougie museum and pay for a peek" could be seen as a critique of mainstream culture's tendency to commodify and sanitize experiences, which can limit personal growth.
Overall, the song seems to be a call to action, urging listeners to embrace change and take ownership of their lives, while also recognizing the value of personal space and respecting others' choices.
