Made Up Mind
Tedeschi Trucks Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know you wish that you could see in my window
Wishing you could pull up the vine
And I'm wearing my Romeo flowers
Just being my made of mind
I know you lack of all in my garden
Apple yourself a big bouquet
You can spell them I know
It's just like I told you
I'm in a higher place

I got a made up mind
I got a made up mind
And you're thinking about it all the time
You're all fine
I got a made up mind

Well you better see me out on a contest
Cause you lost me at the crossroad sign
Year that was an old man
Now you can't hold me
All cause of this made up mind
Yeah you're looking for me up in the basement
You can look down in the Milky Way
Oh halla my name and I won't hear you
Cause I'm in a higher place

I got a made up mind
I got a made up mind
And you're thinking about it all the time
You're all fine
And I got a made up mind

I'm going higher
I'm not afraid
Licking my finger
Trilling the page

Oh I got a made up mind
Always be there up all the time
Sure as the moon as the stars gonna rise
I got a made up mind
I got a made up mind
Some made up mind
I got a made up mind oh oh
Oh, oh
Now this all be over
And my mind is made up




I got it made up
I got it made up

Overall Meaning

The opening line of "Made Up Mind" by Tedeschi Trucks Band seems to suggest that the singer is being watched, as they comment on someone wanting to "see in my window" and "pull up the vine." These actions hint at a sense of invasion of privacy and a desire for control, but the singer seems confident and unafraid, as evidenced by their declaration of having a "made up mind." The chorus further solidifies this sense of determination, with the repeated refrain of having a "made up mind" and being secure in that decision.


The second verse has a more confrontational tone, with the singer indicating that their opposition (presumably the person mentioned in the first verse) may have lost their chance by not acting sooner ("you lost me at the crossroad sign"). The reference to an "old man" may be a metaphor for an outdated or stagnant mindset that no longer has any power over the singer. In the following lines, the singer continues to emphasize their distance from the other person, both in terms of physical location ("look down in the Milky Way") and emotional state ("I won't hear you"). The final repetition of "I got a made up mind" seems to be a declaration of triumph and independence, indicating that the singer has successfully established themselves as their own authority.


Overall, "Made Up Mind" appears to be a song about self-assurance and breaking free from external pressures. The lyrics suggest a sense of defiance in the face of someone who may once have had a hold over the singer, but this opposition is ultimately rendered powerless. The singer's firmness of purpose is emphasized by the repeated refrain of having a "made up mind," indicating a decisiveness that cannot be swayed.

I know you wish that you could see in my window
You are curious about my thoughts and feelings


Wishing you could pull up the vine
You desire to understand me better


And I'm wearing my Romeo flowers
I am displaying my romantic side


Just being my made of mind
I am true to myself and my convictions


I know you lack of all in my garden
You do not have the same things as me


Apple yourself a big bouquet
Create your own happiness


You can spell them I know

It's just like I told you

And you're thinking about it all the time
My choices are on your mind often


You're all fine
You will be okay without my input


Well you better see me out on a contest
If you want to challenge me, you must see me in person


Cause you lost me at the crossroad sign
We went separate ways at a pivotal moment


Year that was an old man
That moment is in the past


Now you can't hold me
You cannot change my mind now


All cause of this made up mind
My conviction has led to this outcome


Yeah you're looking for me up in the basement
You are searching for me in the wrong place


You can look down in the Milky Way
You can search far and wide, but you won't find me


Oh halla my name and I won't hear you
You can call out to me, but I am not listening


Cause I'm in a higher place
I am above the current situation


I'm going higher
I am reaching new heights


I'm not afraid
I am confident in my path


Licking my finger
I am savoring the moment


Trilling the page
I am creating something new


Always be there up all the time
My conviction will remain constant


Sure as the moon as the stars gonna rise
I am as sure of my conviction as the rising of celestial bodies


Some made up mind
This is about my unwavering conviction


Oh, oh
An expression of joy and confidence


Now this all be over
This phase of my life will come to an end


And my mind is made up
My conviction will remain resolute


I got it made up
I am confident in my decisions

I know you wish that you could see in my window
Wishing you could pull up the blind
And I'm wearing my robe made of flowers
Just me and my made up mind

I know you'd like to walk in my garden
And pull yourself up a big bouquet
You can smell the magnolias
But it's just like I told you, I'm in a higher place

I got a made up mind
I got a made up mind
And you're thinking I might break down in time
You're gonna find
I've got a made up mind

Well, you might have seen me out on the country
But you lost me at the crossroad sign
Yeah that was the old me and now you can't hold me
All 'cause of this made up mind

Now you're looking for me up in the basement
You can look down in the Milky Way
Oh, holler my name and I won't hear you
'Cause I'm in a higher place

I got a made up mind
I got a made up mind
And you're thinking I might break down in time
You're gonna find
I've got a made up mind

I'm going higher
I'm not afraid
Licking my finger
Turning the page

Oh I got a made up mind
It's made up all the time
Sure as the moon and the stars gonna rise
I've got a made up mind
I've got a made up mind
Lord, it's a made up mind

I got a made up mind, oh lord
Oh, lord
Now this talk is over
Lord and my mind is made up
My mind is made up
