Endlessly

Omar Apollo's song 'Endlessly' delves into the emotional turmoil of unreciprocated love and the struggle for self-trust. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship where one partner feels neglected and unloved. The repeated lines, 'You ain't even touched me for in so long / You ain't even say you love me in so long,' highlight the emotional distance and lack of communication that has developed. This sense of abandonment is further emphasized by the questioning refrain, 'Did you even love me all along?' which suggests a deep-seated insecurity and doubt about the authenticity of the partner's feelings.

The chorus, 'Yourself to me, baby / Already got what I'll ever need / I know deep in me there's everything / What if I trust myself endlessly?' introduces a contrasting theme of self-reliance and introspection. Here, the narrator contemplates the idea of finding fulfillment within themselves rather than seeking validation from their partner. This internal dialogue reflects a journey towards self-empowerment and the realization that true contentment comes from within. The repetition of 'What if I trust myself endlessly?' serves as a mantra for self-affirmation and resilience.

The song also touches on the difficulty of letting go, as seen in the lines, 'If I decide to leave tonight / I'll have no pride / At least I could try to be by your side / But something's not right.' This internal conflict between staying in a dysfunctional relationship and the fear of losing one's pride underscores the complexity of love and the pain of unreciprocated affection. Omar Apollo's soulful delivery and poignant lyrics make 'Endlessly' a powerful exploration of love, self-worth, and the courage to trust oneself.
