Can I Change My Mind
Walter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She didn't bat an eye, as I packed my bags to leave
I thought she would cry, or sit around my room and grieve
But oh the girl she fooled me this time
Acting like I was the last thing on her mind
Now I'd like to start all over again
I just want to change my mind

As I took those steps, toward that open door
Knowing all the time, oh Lord I just didn't wanna go
She didn't give me no sign
Nothing that would make me wanna change my mind
And I would like to start all over again
Baby, can I change my mind
'Cause I would like to change my mind

You know, I was confused, sitting here by myself thinking
watching you walk to the door and walk away
what was I supposed to say change your mind

Oh I've played my game so many times before
But people let me tell y'all, that I never reached the door
Oh the wind it is high tonight
I keep lookin' for my baby but she's not in sight
And I would like to start all over again

Baby can I change my mind
'Cause I would like to start all over again




Baby can I change my, my mind
'Cause I would like to start all over again with you girl

Overall Meaning

The song "Can I Change My Mind" by Walter Jackson is a soulful, melancholic ballad that talks about the pain and regret of leaving someone, only to realize later that it was a mistake.

However, he is surprised by her lack of reaction, as she doesn't cry or plead for him to stay. It is this lack of dramatics that makes him question his decision and wonder if he can change his mind. He pleads with his lover to give him another chance by starting again.

Madison: What gender are you?
Steve: I'm a male
Madison: What if I don't believe you?
Steve: It doesn't matter
Madison: Exactly

Madison: What gender do you think I am?
Steve: I'd assume you're female
Madison: See you're making assumptions I identify as Non Binary
Steve: Respectfully it doesn't matter
Madison: IT DOES MATTER

What sort of contradiction is this 😂😂😂

1). Yes, that is 100% abuse. If you don't think it is, then please don't ever get into a relationship. (Also, if you really think that it isn't abuse, try reversing the genders. If a woman was talking down to a man like that, would you flip your shit? Be honest here.)

2). I'm not making any point about gender. That's the job of psychologists and philosophers, not average-ass people like you, me, and Steven (notice how Steven intentionally chose an unprepared person, not an expert?). My point is that Steven does not have ANY authority to be talking about gender and ethics at all.

3). I'm bringing up his abusive history because so many god damn people here don't seem to know what Steven did. I guess he did a good job covering up his ass after all.

Really, I just don't get how you can look up to a piece of shit like this. Steven has actively posted racist, sexist (towards both sexes), and overall scummy shit online. And on top of that, he's now a wife abuser. How can you possibly still think positively of this guy? Even if you don't, how can hundreds of thousands of people still look up to him? It's fucking mind-boggling.

I'll never really understand conservatives, I guess.

Still watching, but she-Hulk broke the record for most buzzwords/minute I have ever seen.

The 2nd one. She couldn't even agree that an act of violence is in fact a crime. She's probably a card carrying ANTIFA member.
