For the Lonely Road explained

Click on my cover to listen to the song!

First Verse

The first verse is letting you know that I did not know any of this would happen. All of the drastic changes I went through was so that way I could be the authentic version of me and steer my ship which is really a metaphor for life lol I don't know if y'all caught or understood but there. I say at the end actually "I am the caterpillar that is finally hatching" in reference to my father whose name is J-Ripples a Detroit artist that runs his own label "Phat Cheddar Records". He has a song out called “Who am I?” and in the hook he says, "I'm the gangster, the baller, the player the caterpillar". I was simply paying homage to him when I said that bar because I feel like I'm in those stages of life myself, the caterpillar finally going out of his cocoon and spreading his butterfly wings

Chorus

I let you know in this part of the song that I promise to keep all the people on my journey of this lonely road I walk on in my mind. From the ones that hated my guts to the people that couldn't get enough of me, my heart goes out to all the experiences I have on this path of self-discovery and independence. I let you know I won't leave you behind and that you will be in my heart as I go down this road alone

Second Verse

This verse was really a flex letting you know I don't really need people like I use to lol. This verse is also letting the listener know how clingy people can be when you genuinely do not need them around. It's kind of interesting to see the psychology of people and how they react to you being detached from them, it almost brings out the worst in some people being so attached to a guy like me, if you're one of those people reading this, well, maybe you should walk this lonely road and see how I feel within.

Conclusion

Overall concept of this and intent is to bring the listener back to themselves and allow detachment between that which they know is right and that which they believe feels right. No matter how lonely the road gets, the ones that sparked a fire in me will never be forgotten. This for the people that love they own space and understand the benefit of being alone and content with yourself!
