Lyrics

Even though I'm firmly planted on the ground

Despite being firmly grounded on the earth,

I still run and even though I face these mountains I still soar

I continue to move forward, facing challenges like mountains, yet I still excel and ascend towards the sky.

To the sun I need you here

The speaker expresses a need for someone's presence (possibly a higher power or a significant person) to guide them.

To show me how to feel

They require guidance on how to experience emotions deeply.

Cause I'm tired of living for myself

Expressing weariness of self-centered living and a desire for a change.


When this theory of flight

The subject shifts to the theme of a conceptual "theory of flight" metaphorically representing life.

This question of life that goes on

Life is characterized as an ongoing question, a continuous exploration.

And I struggle and try to

Struggling and striving to become a beacon of love but encountering challenges.

Be the light of your love I fall

Failing in the attempt to embody the love they aspire to.

Into the sea of waves crashing

Feeling overwhelmed by circumstances symbolized as crashing waves.

Over me and you wash me clean

Yet seeking purification and renewal through these challenges.

From the sin I have been seen

Desiring absolution from past mistakes and wrongdoings.


So many reasons why I would lose sight

The speaker acknowledges multiple reasons that could lead to losing sight of their purpose or goals.

But feel fine yea but feel fine

Despite this, they claim to feel okay or at peace.

I lift my hands to the sky I lift my hands up to the sky

An act of surrender or supplication to something greater, symbolized by lifting hands towards the sky.

Even though I am firmly planted on the ground

Reiterating the notion of being grounded but still moving forward despite challenges.

I still run and even though I face

Continuing to face obstacles but still managing to rise above them.

These mountain I still soar to the sun and I'm crying

Expressing emotional distress through tears and prayers while striving upward.

And I'm praying and I'm holding onto you 'cause this life that you

Clutching onto faith or a significant connection during life's struggles.

Gave me I will give it back to you

Pledging to give back what life has offered, possibly promising devotion or gratitude.

I raise my hands into the sky

Reaffirming the act of raising hands towards the sky, symbolizing surrender, praise, or seeking help.
