Rise Above
Rise Above the Storm: A Soul's Journey of Strength and Redemption
Lyrics
Hold me down under the water
Expressing a desire to be submerged or overwhelmed, possibly by life's challenges.
Wash me clean and set me free
Seeking cleansing and liberation from past burdens or sins.
I am my father's daughter
Affirming the speaker's identity and acknowledging her paternal lineage.
Oh God give me strength
Pleading for inner strength, possibly from a higher power.
I feel the roll of the thunder
Sensing a powerful and imminent force, possibly symbolizing life's challenges.
Under my feet
Feeling the impact of life's tumultuous events beneath her.
I can feel the storm a coming
Anticipating a difficult period, suggesting a metaphorical storm on the horizon.
Gonna bring me to my knees
Expecting adversity that will humble and challenge the speaker.
And shatter into pieces
Preparing for a profound disruption, risking the breaking of attachments.
Everything to which I cling
Acknowledging vulnerability and the potential loss of cherished aspects of life.
Oh my body is a temple
Viewing the speaker's body as a sacred space containing something beyond its limits.
Sheltering a soul it can't contain
Highlighting the struggle of the soul within the confines of the physical body.
They say nothing lasts forever
Recognizing the impermanence of things, emphasizing the transient nature of life.
My darling, my soul shall remain
Affirming the enduring nature of the speaker's soul despite life's transience.
Fill me up with your laughter
Inviting positive emotions and experiences to fill the speaker's being.
Your light your beauty and your love
Asking for the presence of positive qualities—light, beauty, and love—to guide the speaker.
While I navigate the darkness
Expressing a willingness to confront difficult situations and emotions.
And walk through hell to rise above
Embracing the idea of overcoming challenges and transcending difficult circumstances.
