Mother Earth
Mean Lady Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Some rearrangements,
But not everything,
But not everything.
The world surrounds me,
My love astounds me,
It's all everything,
I'm going through changes,
Some rearrangements,
But not everything,
But not everything.
The world surrounds me,
My love astounds me,
It's all everything,
It's all everything,
It's all everything,
It's all everything.
The lyrics of Mean Lady's "Mother Earth" seem to be a reflection of the singer's state of mind as she goes through various changes and rearrangements in her life. The repetition of the opening lines "I'm going through changes, Some rearrangements," emphasizes the idea that she feels as though she is in a state of flux or transformation. However, she also acknowledges that these changes are not all-encompassing or all-consuming - "But not everything, But not everything."
The second half of the song incorporates the theme of nature and the singer's feelings towards the world around her. She is surrounded by the beauty and wonder of the Earth, and this fills her with love and awe - "The world surrounds me, My love astounds me." This is a common motif in music, as many artists find inspiration in the natural world and use it as a metaphor for their own emotional states.
Overall, the lyrics of "Mother Earth" express a sense of both uncertainty and wonder, as the singer navigates the changes in her life while also finding solace in the natural world. The repetition of the lines "It's all everything" emphasizes the idea that even during times of upheaval, there is still beauty and meaning to be found in the world around us.
