Fierce Grace
Rich People Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It′s just the way that you talk to me
It's just the way that you talk
You make yourself so small
And you point your finger up like
It′s my fault that I'm

Just the way that you are
It's just something about your approach
You put me up so high
You hold yourself down so low
It′s just the way that you

I could try to be everything to anyone
All at once
I could put myself away and posture my front
And I could try to separate myself
Or I could try to unify
And I could try to understand what you need
Or just be what I like

It′s just the way that you always try to make yourself what you think I like
And you would only start an argument to let me be right
You know that I'm the only catch that never gets caught
And you point your finger up because you know that it′s my fault

You look so confused why I'd ever talk to you at all
And now I′m so unamused why'd I ever talk to you at all

It′s just the way that it always starts
I'm seeking comfort at the end of fall




And you make yourself so small
And you point your finger up like it's my fault that I′m tall

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Fierce Grace" by Rich People's Song seem to be exploring a complicated relationship between two individuals. The singer portrays the other person as someone who constantly puts themselves down and blames the singer for everything that goes wrong. The other person is seen as someone who tries to be what they think the singer likes and starts an argument just to let the singer be right. Despite all these issues, the singer is still drawn to this person and seeks comfort in their presence.


The lyrics suggest that the singer recognizes the flaws in their relationship and acknowledges the different ways they could approach it. They could try to be everything to everyone or put on a front to please others, but in the end, they understand that being true to themselves and understanding what the other person needs may be the best approach. The song seems to be an introspective reflection on the nature of relationships and how they can be both beautiful and complicated at the same time.
