Against All Odds
Antiflvx Lyrics

The lyrics of Antiflvx's song Against All Odds capture the internal struggles of a person afraid to open up and reveal their true self to others. The first verse sets the tone with the line, "My why to avoid the souls of gold enchanting and divine" implying that the singer is intimidated by others who seem to possess a certain level of goodness or spirituality. However, this fear is not based on jealousy or malice but on the genuine concern that the singer is not strong enough to live up to those expectations. This fear is further reinforced in the next line, "Lies in the fear to realize I have no strength at all." The singer is afraid of being exposed as weak and inadequate, so they choose to hide their true self and avoid any potential failure or rejection.

Despite this fear, the singer still has a desire to share their thoughts and feelings with others. However, they choose to "conceal my pounding heart" instead, hoping to keep their vulnerability hidden. This struggle is highlighted in the following section, "And I'll reveal my deepest thoughts against all odds, against all odds. And I will risk the eternal light against all odds, against all odds." The singer acknowledges that sharing their true self entails significant risk and vulnerability, but they are willing to take that chance despite the odds.

The final verse offers a glimmer of hope as the singer considers the possibility of being brave enough to let their guard down. "Maybe one time I will be brave, enslaving all my fears, leaving my heart to skip some beats, I know it's not too late." This line suggests the singer recognizes the potential rewards of being authentic and willing to take risks, despite their fears.

Overall, Against All Odds is an introspective song that delves into the inner workings of a person's psyche. The lyrics offer a glimpse into the secret thoughts and feelings that many people experience but may be too afraid to express.
