Loyal to myself

Lena's song "Loyal to Myself" is a powerful anthem of self-discovery and personal growth. The lyrics reflect a journey of trying to meet external expectations and realizing that this path only led to dissatisfaction and inner turmoil. The opening lines, "I know that I have tried this, tried that / I did it just to reach the things, that's so sad," highlight the futility of seeking validation from others. Lena acknowledges the pain and fragmentation she experienced while trying to conform, ultimately leading her to a pivotal moment of self-realization and change.

The chorus, "I'm loyal to myself now, wanna get to know me / A little bit better, now that I'm the real me," signifies a turning point where Lena decides to prioritize her own needs and desires. This newfound loyalty to herself is not just about self-acceptance but also about recognizing her potential and striving to be her authentic self. The repetition of the phrase "I've been doing better" underscores the positive impact of this self-loyalty on her well-being and personal growth.

In the latter part of the song, Lena reflects on the importance of self-love and the rejection of societal pressures. Lines like "So I left myself to be loved / But I realize that I'm enough" and "Goodbye to the doubts, I hate them / The fears and the expectations" emphasize her journey towards self-empowerment. By replacing doubts and fears with self-belief, Lena finds a sense of belonging and contentment. The song's upbeat and repetitive nature reinforces the message of self-affirmation, making it a relatable and inspiring anthem for anyone on a similar path of self-discovery and authenticity.
