Who I Am
Mr. JP Popavixh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is it passive or neglecting
Is it tragic or impressive
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Am I active or depressive
Am I acting on my preferences
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Struggling, it's a struggle when
Your mind's your biggest enemy
Wrestle with uncovering
Wrestle with uncomfortable
Double up on brazen sins
Complacency, it brews contempt
My agency is in the wind
Naivety in every sip
Every sip, every sip
Every sip, every sip
Every sip, every sip
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Depravity in everything
Blessings just as equally
Choose to see the latter
For the sake of my sanity
Jacob's ladder flipped on my belief
Flashing lights and blackout screens
Flashing lights and blackout screens
Flashing lights and blackout
Need to air out all the shit
Need to figure out what is
Beneficial in the end
Deficits in mental bends
Add up on the surface level
Pan out in the steps you measure
Can't take back what's in the meadow
Only thing preserve, momentum
Moments notice it's all over
Cherish it until it's over
Take the burden off your shoulders
Offer hope, but can't find closure
Halfway home to sober, halfway up to heaven
Dark as last October
This is my confession
Is it passion or obsession
Is it passive or neglecting
Is it tragic or impressive
Who am I to teach a lesson
Am I active or depressive
Am I acting on my preference
Is it shallow introspection
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Is it passion or obsession
Is it passive or neglecting
Is it tragic or impressive
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
Am I active or depressive
Am I acting on my preference
Is a shallow introspection
Who am I to teach a lesson
Who am I to teach a lesson
In Mr. JP Popavixh's song "Who I Am," the lyrics speak to the idea of individuality and authenticity in a world that often tries to shape and mold us into something we are not. The song opens with the lines, "Who shines more than stars, more crimson than Mars?" This sets the scene for a discussion about greatness and uniqueness - what sets us apart from one another and what makes us shine in our own way. The refrain, "Let me be who I am, my self to the end," reinforces this notion of staying true to oneself, even if it means going against the flow or standing out.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of identity and the fact that it's often tied to our surroundings and history. "Who am I is where I am? and when? Now I'm elsewhere." This line speaks to the fluidity of identity - who we are is constantly shifting depending on where we are and what time we're in. The verses also touch on struggles and hardships, asking "Who struggles with tears? Who flees without cheers?" This adds a layer of depth and emotion to the song, as we're reminded that being true to ourselves sometimes means facing challenges and fighting battles.
Overall, "Who I Am" is a powerful anthem for anyone who has ever felt different or out of place. It's a reminder to embrace our uniqueness and to never be ashamed of our past or our struggles. The song urges us to let go of the pressure to fit in and to instead celebrate who we truly are.
