Heartbreak
J.O.M.O. Lyrics

There's a sign on the wall
A physically present message on a wall catches one's attention.

And it's written in stone
The message is permanent and can't be altered.

That love can't make it alone
Love by itself is not enough to sustain a relationship.

This far, or this high
In any situation and at any level, love isn't sufficient.

I'm not the one
Refusing to be victimised by heartbreak once more.

For a heartbreak dance
Refusing to engage in self-pity following a breakup.

I reap my reward by making a stand
Choosing to stand up for one's self instead of dwelling in sadness.

On faith regained
Confidence in oneself is once again restored.

So question your beliefs
Self-evaluation and reflection is necessary for personal growth.

When you crawl up to win
After experiencing failure, one must strive to succeed once more.

Safety is when you sleep
Emotional security is attained through the presence and support of loved ones.

On somebody's knee
The comforting embrace and guidance of those dear to us.

(Sleeping on somebody that you need)
We must recognise and appreciate our support systems to grow and flourish.

This city isn't changing
Despite perceived changes, some things remain constant and unchanged.

As fast as it seems
Change occurs at a slower pace than it seems to be on the surface.

It's just your anxiety playing
The fear and apprehension that arises when one's beliefs are challenged.

With the time you need
Gaining understanding and acceptance takes time and patience.

To break even
Achieving a state of balance after experiencing turmoil.

I'm gonna keep you by my side
The determination to cling onto those we love and value.

I'm gonna keep you in the fight tonight
Refusing to give up despite the difficulties.

When it all comes down to
In times of adversity, everything boils down to one crucial moment.

Making one last noise
Ensuring one's voice is heard, even in the face of overwhelming opposition.

Oblivious to the choice
Being unaware of the options available to us due to our own internal turmoil.

Of writing one more word
Persisting despite the odds and pushing forward with hope and optimism.

Of saying what I want
Sticking to one's convictions and speaking one's truth, despite the obstacles.

To question my beliefs
Challenging long-held assumptions and beliefs for necessary personal growth.

When I crawl up to see
After hitting rock-bottom, gaining the necessary perspective to push forward.

That safety is when you sleep
A true sense of safety and security is attained through love and support from others.

On somebody's knee
Embracing those we cherish and seek guidance from in times of need.

(Sleeping on somebody that you need)
Acknowledging and treasuring those whose support is essential to our growth.

I don't know
Admitting self-doubt and uncertainty.

How to walk
Lacking experience and knowledge in the journey ahead.

From where I am from
Feeling trapped and unable to change one's current circumstance.

To where I belong
Searching for a place of acceptance and belonging, somewhere to call home.

But I have no choice
Despite reservations and fears, taking the leap of faith is necessary for growth and change.

And the path is clear
Having a sense of awareness and understanding of the journey ahead.

I will hold my breath
Taking a risk with bated breath, bracing for the unknown consequences.

When I draw it near
Approaching the future with hesitancy, but also with hope and determination.
