Blossom
Reckless Jacks Lyrics

Labelled, portrayed
We are given titles and depicted in certain ways by others.

Ignorance, innocence
Our lack of knowledge is pure, untainted by the world's harsh realities.

Somehow somewhat you can feel it tough
Despite our innocence, there is still a sense of struggle and difficulty that we can sense.

You cannot be heard
Our voices are often ignored or silenced by those in power or who don't understand us.

But there's a lesson you can learn
Even in the face of adversity, there is something to be gained through the struggle.

We will blossom
Despite the challenges we face, we will grow and become something beautiful.

Blossom like a flower in a wasteland
Our growth and transformation will be striking, unexpected, and beautiful even in the most barren or difficult circumstances.

You will be the sun
One person will provide light, warmth, and energy to help nourish our growth and transformation.

And I will be the land
Another person will provide the foundation, support, and nourishment needed for our growth and transformation.

Until we feel alive again
We will not truly live until we have faced our struggles and grown beyond them.

We're breaking rules
We are not following the expectations and norms set by others.

They think we're fools
Others may believe that our choices and actions are foolish or naive.

We live in love we stay above
Despite what others might say or do, we choose to live our lives with love and positivity, and we rise above negativity and hate.

Far away from home
We may be physically or emotionally distant from the places and people we know and love.

You'll find a place where we can grow
Even in unfamiliar or challenging environments, we will find a way to thrive and develop.

I know it feels like you're on your own
Despite the support we have from others, it can still feel like we're alone in our struggles at times.

We're all in this together stronger
Even when we feel alone, we are part of a larger community and can draw strength and resilience from that.

Blossom
A call to action, urging us to embrace our potential for growth and transformation.

Blossom like a flower in a wasteland
Reinforcing the idea that we can rise above even the most difficult circumstances and become something beautiful.

You will be the sun and I will be the land
Emphasizes the importance of working together and supporting each other to achieve our goals.

Until we feel alive again
Repeating this line at the end reinforces the idea that true life and vitality come from overcoming difficulties and growing beyond them.
