Put Me On
Poo Bear Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A lot of Eckhart Tolle
Trying to find a way
To get away from me
When we're on that inspirational kick
We must be messed up
Come on we all know
At least I fessed up
It's ok
I don't wanna think anymore
So I'll give it up
I'll give it up
Can we just stop
Focus on what we feel
Forget about time
Cause it ain't real, no it ain't real
We only got this moment
We only got this moment
We only got this moment
We only got this moment
I couldn't sleep last night
So I got out of bed
I ran between the sun and the moon in the morning
And then I realized
Here I am so little
What does it really matter
This shh-it in my head
Breathe in slow
Roll my shoulders
Know
That with my eyes closed I could be
Anywhere that I wanna go
And it would be the same with my eyes shut
I thought if I achieved enough that I would find my peace
But even if I could
I'd have gave it up for nothing good
Nothing good
Mind on those who made me and the gifts that life gave to me
And I
I'm feeling good
I'm feeling good
Looking out the window feeling thing's I never thought I could
Let it go with me baby
Let it go with me baby
Let it go with me baby
In this moment we are everything
It'll never be the same without you
The lyrics to Poo Bear's song "Put Me On" is a journey in self-discovery, mindfulness, and letting go of negative thoughts. The song is an expression of finding inner peace and tranquility. Poo Bear starts the song by acknowledging his introspection and attempts to find a way out of his thoughts. Listening to Eckhart Tolle, a popular spiritual leader, has inspired him to detach himself from his thoughts, which allows him to give up the negative emotions he has been feeling. He reveals that he has been trying to find ways to escape from himself, and it is essential to live in the present moment, which is the only thing that exists.
The chorus emphasizes the importance of living in the present moment and enjoying it to the fullest. Instead of focusing on the past or the future, Poo Bear advises his listeners to focus on what they feel in the present. The moment is fleeting, and it is important to cherish it. Moreover, he emphasizes that time is not real and that "we only got this moment." Instead of being bogged down by negative thoughts, Poo Bear encourages his listeners to let them go.
In the second verse, Poo Bear shares his experience of feeling insignificant in the grand scheme of things. He emphasizes that nothing matters except for the present moment and the gifts life has to offer. He realizes that he does not need to achieve much to be at peace because happiness is found in the little things, such as the people who made him and the things that life gifted him.
Overall, Put Me On is a sonically introspective song with a message of mindfulness, enjoying the present moment and letting go of negative emotions.

I couldn't sleep last night
I was unable to obtain rest through slumber during the past evening
So I got out of bed
Therefore, I vacated my bedding
I ran between the sun and the moon in the morning
I experienced the transition between night and day
And then I realized
This realization came to me
Here I am so little
Despite being alive and full of experiences, we are all but a blip in the grand scheme of things
What does it really matter
Does any of it really make any difference?
This shh-it in my head
The incessant mental chatter that plagues me
Breathe in slow
Deeply inhale in a manner that promotes relaxation
Roll my shoulders
Relax my muscles and relieve tension
Know
Understand
That with my eyes closed I could be
Even when my visual sense is not operational, I still have the possibility of experiencing
Anywhere that I wanna go
I can mentally transport myself to any place that I desire
And it would be the same with my eyes shut
The experience would be the same if my eyes were closed
I thought if I achieved enough that I would find my peace
I formerly believed that if I accomplished sufficient feats, peace would follow
But even if I could
Even in the hypothetical scenario of achieving significant accomplishments
I'd have gave it up for nothing good
I Would have sacrificed my time and energy for nothing beneficial
Mind on those who made me and the gifts that life gave to me
I'm thinking about the important people who have influenced my life and the positive aspects and experiences that I've been granted
And I
Additionally
I'm feeling good
I currently feel positive and content
Looking out the window feeling thing's I never thought I could
As I gaze out of the window, I experience emotions and sentiments that I did not perceive would be possible
Let it go with me baby
Release your worries and join me in the present
In this moment we are everything
At this point in time, we possess all that is necessary
It'll never be the same without you
Without you, this moment would not possess the qualities and experiences that you provide
