No one can tell what goes on in between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of the change. You just come out the other side. Or you don’t.

There was a guy who I worked with many years ago, we were talking about success and money and all that stuff, and he told me this one thing, he said, ‘You know money doesn’t change anybody. Money reveals them. Same thing with success.’ And I believe that whole-heartedly.

Paul McCartney – Blackbird (Live Version fom 70s)
In 2018, McCartney further elaborated on the song’s meaning, explaining
that “blackbird” should be interpreted as “black girl”, in the context
of the civil rights troubles in southern 1960s US.
Blackbird
Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free
Blackbird fly
Blackbird fly, into the light of a dark black night
Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free
You were only waiting for this moment to be free
You were only waiting for this moment to be free
