“Figure It Out” is the first single on Lisa Heller’s debut EP. It explores her journey to find herself as an artist and a person. The accompanying music video is an artistic visual representation of a young girl lost in a fake materialistic world (scene 1). As a struggling artist, still in the shade (scene 2), she’s working hard to focus on her art while blocking all negativity that might affect her (scene 3).
lyrics
You said you know best
But I know myself better than that
Cause you have your expectations
But they’re not making sense
Leave me alone
Oh, I don’t need your pressure
I got plenty on my own
I’m so far from home
I got so much room to grow
Everyone I know wants to know what I’m doing
I don’t need to know, need to know right now
They’re all watching and I got options
Give me some time, give me some time
To figure it out
Oh, oh, oh, figure it out
Oh, oh, oh
I met someone
My eyes are open
That shits confusing
Cause when you don’t
Know what you want
You don’t know what you’re losing
Leave me alone
Oh, I don’t need your pressure
I got plenty on my own
I’m so far from home
I got so much room to grow
Everyone I know wants to know what I’m doing
I don’t need to know, need to know right now
They’re all watching and I got options
Give me some time, give me some time
To figure it out
Oh, oh, oh, figure it out
Oh, oh, oh
Everyone I know wants to know what I’m doing
I don’t need to know, need to know right now
They’re all watching and I got options
Give me some time, give me some time
To figure it out
