I Will
Mozella Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If this is something I can do
If this is something I can be
'Cause I have never tried
To show you who I really am
Without telling you lies
And don't hestitate
Am just too numb to know what it is
[Chorus]
If I can give it to you
You know I will
If I can give it to you
You know I will
I just want to love you
I just want to love you
I just want to love you
And show you things that words can't do
Wait while I breathe
'Cause this is something that I still
Have not fully concieved
And you just don't know
The way this whole things turned on me
And I just can't let go
And don't make me wait
Your hanging on the edge of something
Am just too numb to know what it is.
[Chorus]
So there you go again
'Cause I see what you want
'Cause you want what you don't
In time things will work out right
So you say that I can wait
I can wait
I can wait.
If I can give it to you
You know I will
If I can give it to you
You know I will
I just want to love you
I just want to love you
I just want to love you
I just want to love you
If I can give it to you,
Then I will give it to you,
I just want to...
I will give it to you... to you...
The opening lines of Mozella’s “I Will” express the fear of the unknown we all face as we try something new or unfamiliar. The singer is aware that she is on the cusp of something exciting but she isn't sure if she can go through with it. The stakes are high because whatever it is that she’s attempting requires her to be unguarded and genuine, to show someone who she truly is without lying or wearing a mask. By conceding that she has never tried before, the singer acknowledges the gravity of this moment, but also seems to be aware of the transformative power of vulnerability.
The chorus of “I Will” continues to unpack the singer’s desire to give all that she can to the person she loves. She repeats this plea several times, and each time she says it, it seems to grow in intensity. She is not just talking about physical gestures or material things, but also the deep emotional connection that comes with loving someone completely. The person she is addressing is not identified, but it could be anyone with whom she has a romantic relationship. The song’s title “I Will” underscores the singer’s confidence and optimism - she will love this person, she will give them all she has, and she will make sure they know it.
Overall, Mozella's "I Will" is a hopeful and sweet tribute to the transformative power of love. It encourages us to take risks and be true to ourselves, to be unafraid of showing others our true selves, and to love deeply and selflessly.

Her sound is kind of swanky, bluesy, jazz that is lite and cheery when she wants it to be and dry, brittle and harsh when it needs to be. I can see alot of commercial use of her music.
