Lost In Kostko
This is not growing up I've never
heard of this one, mom or dad can't help me this time.
Who do I look to when things aren't alright?
Everything is perfect don't run it for me.
Sometimes I wanna go back to the way it was.
But then again back then I was just a no one.
Don't wanna be just anyone.
Gotta be somebody.
What the hell!
Am I going crazy?
Heart slows down.
Are you alright? Maybe.
I did not ask for this.
One man's curse, another one's gift.
Sometimes I wanna go back to the way it was.
But then again back then I was just a no one.
Don't wanna be just anyone.
Gotta be somebody.
Final Sometimes I wanna go back to the way it was.
But then again back then I was just a no one.
Don't wanna be just anyone.
Gotta be somebody.
Gotta be somebody! Be somebody!
Lost in Kostko's song "Somebody" is a song that deals with the confusion that comes with growing up and trying to find your place in the world. The song starts with a feeling of being lost when the singer says "This is not growing up I've never heard of this one, mom or dad can't help me this time," indicating that they are feeling adrift and unsure of how to proceed. The singer then goes on to ask, "Who do I look to when things aren't alright?" This line emphasizes the anxiety that comes with feeling like you have no one to turn to when you are feeling lost.
The chorus of the song repeats the idea that the singer doesn't want to be anyone but themselves, but they also don't want to feel like a nobody. They want to be somebody who has a place in the world and who knows who they are. The line "Sometimes I wanna go back to the way it was. But then again back then I was just a no one," shows the internal struggle of wanting to go back to the comfort of the past even though they know that they weren't truly happy then.
The lyrics touch on the idea of feeling cursed and blessed at the same time. There is a sense that the feeling of being lost and the anxiety that comes with it is both a curse and a gift. The final line of the chorus, "Gotta be somebody," is a call to action for the singer to find their place in the world and be the somebody they want to be.
