Upstarts
Upstarts: Defiance in Times, the Underground Unveiled
Lyrics
Oh, I feel it coming round
Anticipation of change or a significant event is building.
I hear it, sounds like the good life
The upcoming change is associated with a positive and enjoyable experience.
I know
An acknowledgment of awareness or understanding.
Oh, I see this running down
Sensing the unfolding of a situation or development.
Defiance comes, oh
A sense of resistance or opposition is emerging.
The underground is overground
The previously hidden or alternative is becoming mainstream or apparent.
The overground will pull you down
Mainstream influences can have a negative impact or bring one down.
It's how it goes in these times
Describing the nature of the current times, possibly challenging or tumultuous.
How we know it's in their eyes
Understanding the prevailing conditions by observing others.
Upstarts now are on their way
A new, rebellious group or movement is emerging.
Upstarts now have to pay
The emerging group will face consequences or challenges.
Oh, I hear us coming round
A repetition of the anticipation, now with an element of denial.
Denial comes, oh
Denial is becoming a prominent aspect of the unfolding situation.
The underground is overground
The hidden or alternative is gaining prominence once again.
The overground will pull you down
Mainstream influences can have a detrimental effect on the emerging movement.
It's how it goes in these times
Reiteration of the challenging nature of the current times.
How we know it's in our eyes
Understanding the challenges by looking within, possibly self-awareness.
Upstarts now are on their way
A reaffirmation of the emergence of the rebellious group.
Upstarts now have to pay
The consequences or challenges for the emerging group are emphasized.
And hear, they tell it now so fast
An indication that the story is being told rapidly or urgently.
Oh, I hear us coming round
A repetition of the anticipation, possibly with increased intensity.
Oh, I feel it
A heightened sense of feeling the impending change.
Upstarts are on their way
Confirmation that the rebellious group is indeed on its way.
