Intro: The letters you wrote me had hollow point headers If you think you’ve got it like that find somebody better You said I need fixing you numbered the stages But I won’t be living in one of your cages Open your mind and understand When you’re hard on me it’s not what I need We were meant to be untamed Up on my feet born to run free straight into verse2 And there’s nobody taming me I’ve outgrown the narrow protective container Designed to be opened with your childish behaviour Cause you’re not the critic of personal purpose And I’m just not willing to do community service I don’t know why you lay it on When you’re hard on me it’s not what I need We were meant to be untamed Up on my feet born to run free And there’s nobody taming me Ponte: You say that I should lend a shoulder Right now ’cause your whole world is blowing up Go ahead but I won’t be your soldier Cause you’re the one who started up You’re the one who started up When you’re hard on me it’s not what I need We were meant to be untamed Up on my feet born to run free And there’s nobody taming me (2x) (Intro) (Solo) (Outro) ( )

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson aborde le thème de l’émancipation et de la recherche de liberté face à des attentes ou des jugements imposés par l’autre. Le protagoniste exprime son besoin de ne pas être enfermé dans un moule, de se libérer des contraintes d’une relation qui semble trop contrôlante. Il refuse de se conformer à des standards qui ne lui correspondent pas et désire vivre sans être limité par les opinions des autres. Le contexte pourrait s'inscrire dans une relation amoureuse où l’un des partenaires cherche à modifier l’autre, croyant qu'il faut le « réparer ». L’artiste clame son envie de s’affirmer et de vivre authentiquement, en délaissant le jugement et les pressions extérieures, tout en se redressant et en voulant courir librement.
