Swift In The Box feat. Briana Carter
R-Swift Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

People tell me I howl oddly
It’s beyond me
Box
I don’t fit in
Smile & I grin
Box
I don’t fit in
Smile & I grin
You can’t box me In
I won’t allow it
You can’t hold me down
But I like the challenge
Find my spirit now
Where's the fountain?
Infinite essence
Can’t count it
Box
I don’t fit in
Smile & I grin
Box
I don’t fit in
Smile & I grin




To be free
Simply breathe peace

The willingness to embrace challenges and explore one's own spirit is reflected in lines like "But I like the challenge, Find my spirit now, Where's the fountain?"


The reference to "Infinite essence, Can’t count it" suggests a deeper, indescribable aspect of the singer's identity that cannot be contained within societal constructs. This existential exploration is juxtaposed with the repeated assertion of not fitting into a box yet still smiling and grinning, signifying a sense of inner contentment and peace amidst external pressures to conform. The desire for freedom and tranquility is encapsulated in the final line, "To be free, Simply breathe peace," encapsulating the longing for authenticity and inner harmony.
