Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Express Yourself!
You don't ever need help from nobody else. All you got to do now:
Express Yourself!
What ever you do, do it good.
It's not what you look like, when you're doin´ what you're doin´.
It's what you're doin´ when you're doin´ what you look like you're doin´!
Express Yourself!
Express Yourself!
They're doin´it on the moon, yeah...
In the jungle too.
Everybody on the floor, now.
Jumpin´ like a kangaroo.
So let the horns do the thing they do, yo...
Some people have everything, and other people don't.
But everything don't mean a thing if it ain´t the thing you want.
Express Yourself!
Express Yourself!
O, do it! O, do it.
Do it to it. Go on and do it.
Yo, do it. Give.
Express Yourself!

Furthermore, the lyrics also mention that people from all walks of life express themselves differently.

@@TempeSoldier123 Well the music is the first thing that comes to mind and bright blue skys without chemtrails.
We knew we could do anything we wanted with our lives and that a successful life was not dependent on a college education that was designed to suppress our creativity.
Food was clean and good so most everyone was healthy and athletic. No one had autoimmune conditions or a disability.
Everyone was always present with one another because there were no cellphones to distract anyone from being fully in the moment.
We spent most of our time outside with friends and missing phone calls that we could only receive if we were home when the phone rang.
We could ride in the back of a pickup truck and without seatbelts. We were free of fears, inhibitions and insecurities and mentally much healthier as a result.
We were free to do as we pleased and could even drink beer on a public beach if we wanted and there were never any related fights or injuries that I observed.
When people are free to choose, they will usually choose wisely and are happier and more mindful as a result.
Like during Woodstock, all those souls gathered together for 4 days without any fighting or any posing for cell phone pics to upload in hopes to get some kind of egoic praise later on.
We lived in the real world with real people and it was wonderful. We played board games with one another instead of computer games alone. Humans are naturally happy healthy people if they are simply left alone to thrive from their intuitive sense of knowing.
⛵💃 🎶🌞🍺🌼🌛🏊
Slowly everything was turned upside down, as if happiness was clouded by some kind of black magic curse.
It became obvious that the world leaders didn't want us here so they created a plan that started with fear and controlling methods designed to remove peace, love and ecstasy from our mind, body and spirit.
You see, they envied what they did not have and what their money could not buy so they set out to steal our presence of joy, but they FAILED because Joy IS the essence of immortal consciousness. Joy is the infinite flow of Divinity within all souls and something that they themselves have chosen to sever access to.
This is why they are fumbling to hijack Consciousness artificially. That cannot be done. AI is not the same, plus there are Universal Laws in place to prevent that.
They tainted everything in 3D for our greater bad, but in doing so they have now revealed themselves which will be their ultimate demise and it won't matter much as we have already expanded above and beyond 3D.
Now that the delusion of their concern for our well-being is unmasked we can all see them clearly so it's only a matter of time before their fall.
Humanity must unite and unplug from all the technology that they control and get back to nature and remember our true essence and once again Live and Love from the heart.
There is nothing greater With-OUT than what we ALREADY have With-IN.
We don't need artificial chips and circuitry to access who and what we truly are. We ARE The Immortal Consciousness of Source Creator and they are terrified that we will remember that we are naturally far more powerful than those requiring an artificial link to an unnatural source.
They are doomed, but refuse to go down without a fight. That's fine because nothing they do now matters whatsoever. It's already over! 💫🤗❤🌟🌿
