Time to Emancipate

I just added an old song (I used to sing way back) to my playlist. Singing out loud once again on my way to office today… (don’t complain about how I can’t sing) It liberates me. Isang mapagpalayang araw! ☺

Rear View Mirror by Pearl Jam

Start of Song
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings made me wise
But I’m not about to give thanks, or apologize
I couldn’t breathe, holdin’ me down
Hand on my face, pushed to the ground
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Forced to endure what I could not forgive…

I seem to look away
Wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn’t my surface most defiled
Head at your feet, fool to your crown
Fist on my plate, swallowed it down
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Tried to endure what I could not forgive

Saw things (4x)
Clearer (2x)
Once you, were in my… rear view mirror…

I gather speed from you fucking with me
Once and for all I’m far away
I hardly believe, finally the shades…are raised…hey…

Saw things so much clearer
Once you, once you… (3x)
Rear view mirror

Saw things so much clearer
Once you…oh yeah…
