From Now On
Rediscovering Purpose: From Now On, Andy Brown's Journey
Lyrics
I saw the sun begin to dim
I observed the beginning of a decline in optimism or positivity.
And felt that winter wind
I sensed the chilling breeze of winter.
Blow cold
Describing the coldness associated with difficult times.
A man learns who is there for him
A person discovers who truly supports them.
When the glitter fades and the walls won't hold
Realization that genuine connections endure beyond superficial glamour and crumbling defenses.
'Cause from then, rubble
Referring to the aftermath, remnants left after a downfall.
One remains
In challenging times, only the essential, genuine elements persist.
Can only be what's true
The enduring truth remains, unaffected by external circumstances.
If all was lost
Even if everything was lost, the experience brings valuable lessons.
Is more I gain
Growth and wisdom gained from adversity outweigh losses.
'Cause it led me back
The challenging journey led back to a meaningful connection.
To you
Highlighting the importance of the rediscovered connection.
From now on
Emphasizing a shift in perspective, a new beginning.
These eyes will not be blinded by the lights
Commitment to not be dazzled or misled by external distractions.
From now on
Anticipation of what's been postponed, now starting immediately.
What's waited till tomorrow starts tonight
Expressing the urgency of the moment.
Tonight
Reiterating the immediacy of the commitment.
Let this promise in me start
The commitment is compared to a powerful anthem within.
Like an anthem in my heart
Internalizing the promise with great significance.
From now on
Reiteration of the commitment to a new perspective.
From now on
Reaffirmation of the commitment.
I drank champagne with kings and queens
Recalling experiences of luxury and recognition.
The politicians praised my name
Praise from influential figures like politicians.
But those are someone else's dreams
Realizing those achievements were someone else's aspirations.
The pitfalls of the man I became
Acknowledging the downsides and challenges of personal growth.
For years and years
Reflecting on years spent chasing external approval and success.
I chased their cheers
The constant pursuit of applause and validation.
The crazy speed of always needing more
The frenetic pace of always wanting more.
But when I stop
Pausing to appreciate the meaningful connection.
And see you here
Recognizing the importance of the present moment with a loved one.
I remember who all this was for
Understanding the purpose behind the achievements.
From now on
Reiterating the commitment to clarity and authenticity.
These eyes will not be blinded by the lights
Underscoring the determination to avoid being misled by external allure.
From now on
Reaffirming the immediacy and importance of the commitment.
What's waited till tomorrow starts tonight
The commitment starts immediately, not waiting for tomorrow.
Tonight
Emphasizing the urgency and significance of the commitment.
Let this promise in me start
Comparing the commitment to an anthem, underlining its emotional weight.
Like an anthem in my heart
The promise is deeply ingrained in the person's heart.
From now on
Reiterating the commitment to a new perspective and way of life.
From now on
Confirmation of the commitment's lasting impact.
And we will come back home
Repeated emphasis on the return to a meaningful home, suggesting a return to what truly matters.
And we will come back home
-Home, again!
-And we will come back home
-And we will come back home
-Home, again!
-And we will come back home
-And we will come back home
-Home, again!
-Home again
