Up There
Yearning for Uplifting Realms
Lyrics
It's time we think about up there
Expressing the need to contemplate about a higher place or state of being.
It's time we think about up there
Reiteration of the importance of considering a transcendent existence.
Down here there's so much mean-ness
Describing the existence of negativity and unkindness in the current reality.
And sorrow everywhere
Acknowledging the prevalence of sorrow and distress everywhere in the current environment.
It's time we think about up there
Repeating the call to shift focus towards a higher, presumably more positive, realm.
Lately I been thinking about up there
Indicating personal contemplation and consideration of a transcendent place.
There's lots of folks I love up there
Expressing affection towards loved ones in the speculated higher realm.
I'll get down on my knees and say a little prayer
Committing to prayer, a spiritual practice, as a means of connection with the higher realm.
That one day we'll meet again up there
Expressing a hope for a reunion with loved ones in the speculated higher place.
I don't know what it's really like up there
Admitting uncertainty about the nature of the higher realm.
I don't know if Jesus cuts His hair
Pondering on unknown aspects of the higher realm, such as the appearance of Jesus.
I don't know what I'll look like
Expressing indifference about personal appearance in the speculated higher place.
And I don't really care
Conveying a strong desire to live in the higher realm despite uncertainties.
I just want to go live up there
Stating the primary aspiration of wanting to reside in the speculated higher place.
What if everybody learns to care
Presenting a hypothetical scenario where people universally develop a caring attitude.
What if everybody starts to share
Imagining a positive transformation if everyone starts sharing.
What if everybody shows the love
Envisioning a world filled with love inspired by the teachings of Jesus.
Of Jesus everywhere
Proposing that if love is displayed everywhere, the current reality would resemble the higher realm.
Down here would look a lot like up there
Reiterating the idea that a more caring and loving world on Earth would resemble the speculated higher place.
Down here would look a lot like up there
Concluding the thought that a positive transformation on Earth would mirror the qualities of the higher realm.
