Arm Yourself
Empower Your Soul: Unveiling the Resilient Spirit in 'Arm Yourself'
Lyrics
This is the way of the bold and the fallen
This describes the path taken by those who are courageous and have faced defeat.
Breaking our backs on the weight of nothing
Expresses the difficulty and futility of hard work under the burden of nothing substantial.
Slow as it goes there's no time to expose we
Life progresses slowly with no time to reveal one's true self.
Live in our lives and pretend it's all right and you go
Living in denial and pretending everything is fine.
When you start to leave this shelter
When you decide to leave the safety of your comfort zone.
Now it's time you breathe you have to
Now it's time to face reality and take a breath.
Arm yourself with the will to react to
Encouragement to prepare mentally and emotionally for challenges.
The sight of certain death disaster
Facing imminent danger or calamity.
Finds its mark on the hearts of the weak
Disaster affects the vulnerable and sensitive.
And will fold to your strength
Weakness succumbs to strength.
Rest on the shore let the end of the world come
Acceptance of an impending catastrophic event.
Say to yourself well so much for my four oh one
Nonchalant resignation, referencing retirement savings (401k).
'Kay now I'm done and I'm glad I'm the one who
Completion of a personal journey with satisfaction, possibly after seeking revenge.
Lived to the end to exact my revenge you should know
Surviving to the end and seeking retribution.
When you start to leave when it's time to breathe
Reiteration of the decision to leave and breathe freely.
Away from the shelter
Moving away from a protective environment.
With all I am just understand
Despite efforts, the speaker cannot endure any longer.
I can't hold any longer
(Repetition of the preceding line)
Arm yourself with the will to react to
Encouragement to mentally prepare for impending danger.
The sight of certain death disaster
(Repetition of line 8)
Finds its mark on the hearts of the weak
(Repetition of line 9)
And will fold to your strength
(Repetition of line 10)
Arm yourself with the will to react to
(Repetition of line 21)
The sight of certain death disaster
(Repetition of line 22)
Finds its mark on the hearts of the weak
(Repetition of line 23)
And will fold to your strength
(Repetition of line 24)
Arm yourself with the will to react to
(Repetition of line 25)
The sight of certain death disaster
(Repetition of line 26)
Finds its mark on the hearts of the weak
(Repetition of line 27)
And will fold to your strength
(Repetition of line 28)
