Stem Champ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Going through my head
Every single night
Every single day
Will the changing of the seasons
Ever not make me feel this way
Is being like this at 24 ok
Do I owe you a kinder goodbye
I wanna set this all on fire
I wanna set this all on fire
I wanna set this all on fire
And kill the imposter
In Stem Champ's song "Kill," the lyrics depict a tumultuous inner battle that the artist is experiencing. The opening lines "I have a lot of thoughts, going through my head, every single night, every single day" signify that the artist is constantly plagued by racing thoughts and persistent contemplation. This suggests that the artist is grappling with a conflicting mix of emotions and uncertainties.
The next lines, "Will the changing of the seasons ever not make me feel this way, is being like this at 24 okay," reflect a sense of unease and a longing for stability. The changing of seasons serves as a metaphor for life's constant flux and how it can have a profound impact on one's emotional state. The mention of being 24 implies that the artist is questioning whether their current state of mind and inner struggles are acceptable or normal for someone their age.
The lyrics further delve into the artist's insecurities, wondering if they will ever be able to handle rejection and questioning whether they owe someone a more compassionate goodbye. These lines showcase vulnerability and a desire for self-improvement and growth.
The repeated lines "I wanna set this all on fire and kill the imposter" reveal an intense desire for radical change and liberation. The artist metaphorically wants to burn away their inner turmoil and eliminate the imposter within themselves, possibly representing a facade or persona they feel they have created.
