All My Demons

In 'All My Demons,' We the Lion delves into the complex interplay between love, self-worth, and inner turmoil. The song opens with the enigmatic presence of a figure who evokes deep emotions in the narrator, making their heart go 'mmm mmm.' This person seems to offer a sense of completeness and love that the narrator finds overwhelming and almost unfathomable. Yet, despite this abundance of love, the narrator is plagued by a sense of inadequacy and a feeling of something missing, as highlighted by the repeated question, 'Where are you?'

The chorus poignantly captures the essence of the narrator's struggle: 'If I have it all, why do I feel so small?' This line encapsulates the paradox of having everything one could desire externally but still feeling insignificant and haunted by inner demons. The demons, representing internal struggles and insecurities, scream too loud to be ignored, despite the narrator's efforts to suppress them. This internal conflict is a powerful metaphor for the battle many face between their external successes and internal peace.

As the song progresses, the figure who brings love also becomes a source of strength, helping the narrator fight against these inner voices. However, the struggle is ongoing, and the voices of doubt and insecurity persist, making the narrator question their sense of belonging and self-worth. The repetition of the chorus underscores the relentless nature of this internal battle, emphasizing that even with love and support, overcoming one's demons is a continuous and challenging journey.

'All My Demons' is a deeply introspective song that resonates with anyone who has ever felt the weight of their inner struggles despite external successes. It speaks to the universal human experience of grappling with self-doubt and the quest for inner peace, making it a poignant and relatable piece of music.
