them
Jenna Raine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I got a lot to say
Different don't fit in
Doesn't matter anyway
I won't be shaken
Won't get to me easily
Trust in myself
They said
I wouldn't make it
I didn't wanna have to give in
Fake it, it's all for nothin'
So we break, fall apart
Try to be what we're not
We won't lose it again
And we won't be forgotten
Save it
You're onto somethin'
We don't gotta do it like them
We don't gotta do it like them
Can't remain seated
'Cause I gotta walk my way
When truth is fleetin'
Searchin' for it every day
I won't be shaken
Won't get to me easily
Trust in myself
They said
I wouldn't make it
I didn't wanna have to give in
Fake it, it's all for nothin'
So we break, fall apart
Try to be what we're not
We won't lose it again
And we won't be forgotten
Save it
You're onto somethin'
We don't gotta do it like them
I don't wanna do it like them
I don't want it anyway
I'll save it
I'm onto something
They said
I wouldn't make it
I didn't wanna have to give in
Fake it, it's all for nothin'
So we break, fall apart
Try to be what we're not
We won't lose it again
And we won't be forgotten
Save it
You're onto somethin'
We don't gotta do it like them
We don't gotta do it like them
We don't gotta do it like them
The song "Them" by Jenna Raine speaks to individuality and authenticity in the face of societal pressure to conform. The opening lines, "Can't remain silent, 'Cause I got a lot to say", indicate a desire to express oneself despite the potential for criticism or rejection from others. The chorus emphasizes the importance of staying true to oneself and not giving in to the pressure to be someone else, with lines like "Try to be what we're not, We won't lose it again, and We won't be forgotten." The repeating phrase "We don't gotta do it like them" drives the message home.
The second verse, "Can't remain seated, 'Cause I gotta walk my way, When truth is fleetin', Searchin' for it every day", underscores the idea that finding one's true self and purpose is an ongoing process that requires courage, perseverance, and self-reflection. The song also touches on the theme of resilience in the face of naysayers, with lines like "They said I wouldn't make it, I didn't wanna have to give in, Fake it, it's all for nothing."

Can't remain silent
I cannot stay silent any longer
'Cause I got a lot to say
Because I have plenty to express
Different don't fit in
Being different does not conform
Doesn't matter anyway
It still has no importance
I won't be shaken
I will not be moved
Won't get to me easily
It won't be easy to affect me
Trust in myself
I believe in myself
They said
They believed
I wouldn't make it
I will not succeed
I didn't wanna have to give in
I didn't want to give up
Fake it, it's all for nothin'
Pretending is pointless
So we break, fall apart
So we collapse, disintegrate
Try to be what we're not
Attempt to become something that we're not
We won't lose it again
We will not allow ourselves to feel defeated again
And we won't be forgotten
And we won't be left behind
Save it
Keep it
You're onto somethin'
You are discovering something important
We don't gotta do it like them
We do not have to do it how they do
Can't remain seated
I cannot stay in one place
'Cause I gotta walk my way
Because I need to follow my own path
When truth is fleetin'
When the truth is elusive
Searchin' for it every day
I search for it every day
I don't wanna do it like them
I do not want to conform
I don't want it anyway
I don't want it at all
I'll save it
I'll keep it for later
They said
They believed
We don't gotta do it like them
We do not have to follow their path
