Born January 1st 1996, Charmaine started writing music when she was seventeen.
Her biggest inspirations were Missy Eliott, Lil Kim, Nicki Minaj & more!
At first glance, you can see Charmaine challenging society’s status quo and in her own way sends a statement of what it means to be able to do it all while being a strong independent Black woman. She wants to welcome listeners of all backgrounds to consider the experiences of self-discovery, growth, reclamation, culture, healing, and most importantly fun.
“I want people to feel like they can do anything, be anything, they don’t have to pretend to be something they’re not. I want them to step into their own power,” Charmaine says while speaking about the new single.
Tied To The Ground
Charmaine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Barely making sense of all the madness
Bearing all your soul in broken pieces
Give yourself some time to pull together again
Let's get out of here and take a breather
Maybe get some coffee in our systems
Talk about the things that make you smile
Move, move on with your life
You know that Love has covered it all, and so
You can let go you're heart's not tied to the ground
And I'll be singing for you
Can you hear it? your soul will move to the sound
The music's playing for you
Do we wanna laugh or keep on crying
See another film or drive till daylight?
Imagine all the things that you've been thinking
Breathe them all to life and stop your dreaming
Go, go on with your life
Believe that Love will cover it all, and so
You can run a bit faster
This is finally freedom
Looks like the beginning
(Of something wonderful)
Take the weight of your shoulders
And just laugh a bit louder
This is the beginning
(Of something wonderful
The lyrics of Charmaine's song "Tied to the Ground" are all about breaking free from the problems that weigh us down and learning to move on with our lives. The opening lines encourage the listener to express their feelings honestly, acknowledging that life can be incredibly confusing and difficult to make sense of. The mention of "broken pieces" implies that the singer has experienced pain and heartbreak in their life, but they urge the listener to give themselves time to heal and recover.
The song then shifts towards a more optimistic tone, with the singer suggesting that they "get out of here" and take a break from their problems. They encourage the listener to focus on the things that bring them joy and to forget about the moments that have brought them pain. The repetition of the phrase "move on with your life" reinforces the idea that it's essential to let go of the past and move forward towards a brighter future.
The chorus of the song is all about breaking free from the ties that bind us to our problems. The singer urges the listener to realize that their heart is not "tied to the ground," and that they can experience true freedom and joy by letting go of their pain. The power of music is emphasized in the line "your soul will move to the sound," suggesting that the right kind of music can heal our souls and lift us up to a better place.

This is a completely new sound -- new style, new compositions; just totally all original, and beautiful too. All of her songs.

Wow! This song is so beautiful! :) I wish they played that bridge like two or three times before the chorus and also play it a couple of times at the end as it is fading!
