Awake
Embracing Insecurities: Red Sun Rising's Powerful Message in 'Awake'
Lyrics
I need security too
I desire security in my life.
To gain some traction here
Seeking stability and progress in my circumstances.
A chain reaction telling me
Noticing a series of events that suggest a potential outcome.
If this is all it will ever be
Questioning if the current situation is the extent of what life has to offer.
Mistakes I made in theory
Reflecting on mistakes made in theory or anticipation.
I need to clear the air
Feeling the need to clarify and address unresolved issues.
Embrace the fear, afraid to know
Facing fear but hesitating to discover the truth.
If this is all it will ever be
Doubting if the current situation is the ultimate reality.
I watched the rain erase us all
Observing the impact of challenges or hardships.
Through the eyes of a waterfall
Seeing the world through the perspective of difficulty or emotional turbulence.
I bought the rights to own the air
Metaphorically claiming ownership of the environment.
So I can steal you, the breath from me
Expressing a desire to possess someone's essence or attention.
I will break your fall
Committing to support and prevent someone from falling.
And I will make you stay awake
Promising to keep someone alert or aware.
I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Affirming a commitment to being awake, suggesting self-awareness.
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Reiterating the commitment to staying awake and self-aware.
What insecurity chose
Exploring the consequences of insecurity.
But too polite to share
Being too courteous to openly express insecurity.
It always makes sense when not aware
Realizing things make more sense when not consciously aware.
That this is all that you'll ever be
Acknowledging limitations and defining one's identity.
It took the crack of a smile
A positive moment that captures attention and changes perspective.
To turn my head and stare
Focusing attention due to a smile, possibly indicating a positive change.
It made me forget what came to be
Forgetting past issues or problems due to positive experiences.
I'm not to you what you are to me
Highlighting a disparity in the importance of individuals to each other.
I watched the rain erase us all
Repeating the impact of challenges on erasing collective experiences.
Through the eyes of a waterfall
Continuing to view the world through a challenging lens.
I bought the rights to own the air
Reasserting ownership of the environment and surroundings.
So I can steal you, the breath from me
Expressing the desire to absorb someone's essence or vitality.
I will break your fall
Committing to provide support and prevent someone from falling.
And I will make you stay
Reiterating the commitment to keeping someone awake and aware.
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Affirming the dedication to being awake, suggesting self-awareness.
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Reiterating the commitment to staying awake and self-aware.
And later down the line
Anticipating a realization or understanding in the future.
You'll figure out
Discovering that it's easier to conceal the truth.
It's easier to hide
Realizing the convenience of hiding rather than confronting.
Lay it on the line
Encouraging openness and honesty in communication.
And figure out
Recognizing the ease of deceit compared to honesty.
It's easier to lie
Acknowledging the temptation or convenience of lying.
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Reiterating the commitment to being awake, self-aware, and embracing the reality.
Awake, I'll stay, awake, this is all that I'll ever be
Affirming the dedication to staying awake, acknowledging one's identity.
This is all that I'll ever be, this is all
Concluding that the present state is the ultimate identity and reality.
