To It

Aryeè The Gem's song 'To It' delves into the emotional and mental struggles of dealing with pressure and loneliness. The lyrics reveal a personal journey where the artist feels the weight of responsibilities and the lack of understanding from others. The opening lines highlight the isolation felt when no one takes the time to ask if she's okay, leading her to simplify her expressions and strive for perfection on her own. This sets the tone for a narrative of self-reliance amidst external pressures.

The recurring theme of financial stress and the quest for genuine connections is evident in the lines, 'How am gonna pay these bills / Are we building something real / Is this loneliness I feel, I hate it / Don’t wanna be alone.' These lines capture the dual struggle of managing practical life challenges while yearning for meaningful relationships. The artist's routine of putting on rings and chains before leaving the house symbolizes a form of armor, preparing herself to face the world and its demands. The phrase 'leanin’ to it' suggests a determination to confront these challenges head-on, despite the emotional toll.

The song also touches on the difficulty of maintaining relationships and staying connected due to the demands of work and personal struggles. The late-night shifts and the apology for not keeping in touch reflect the sacrifices made in the pursuit of stability and success. Aryeè The Gem acknowledges the distractions and temporary satisfactions that can derail her focus but emphasizes the importance of staying true to herself and her goals. The closing lines, 'Feels like no one knows / It’s a lonely road / Had been on my own / Dealin’ with shit / I have been, have been gettin’ to it,' encapsulate the resilience and perseverance required to navigate life's challenges alone.
