Same Rain
Same Rain: Exploring Life's Shared Moments in Sam Phillips' Melody
Lyrics
I went to the sun it was too hot
Encountering challenges and discomfort in the pursuit of something desirable.
I went to the moon it was too cold
Facing adversity and harsh conditions in a different setting.
Went to the mountain it was too young
Exploring something promising but inexperienced or immature.
Went to the ocean it was too old
Engaging with the past, perhaps finding it aged or outdated.
Is it the same rain that falls on a holy man
Questioning the universality of experiences, wondering if everyone faces the same challenges.
Is it the same rain that falls on a liar's hand
Contemplating whether challenges are consistent for both honest and deceitful individuals.
Is it the same rain that falls on me
Reflecting on personal struggles and whether they are shared by others.
I knew a man a refugee survival was his art
Describing a person who thrives despite being a refugee, emphasizing internal strength.
All that he held valuable he carried in his heart
Highlighting the value of intangible qualities carried within one's heart.
Is it the same rain that falls on the mountain's face
Considering whether challenges are the same for natural landscapes like mountains.
Is it the same rain that falls on the prison gate
Questioning if adversity affects both natural elements and man-made structures.
Is it the same rain that falls on me
Wondering if personal struggles align with those faced by nature and structures.
All the money in the world all the power it can buy
Stating that material wealth and power cannot silence or suppress one's voice.
Will not take your voice away
Emphasizing the enduring nature of personal expression and identity.
Can not own what you hold inside
Asserting that inner values and emotions cannot be possessed or controlled externally.
Is it the same rain that falls on a poor man's room
Questioning if challenges are consistent for individuals with different socioeconomic statuses.
Is it the same rain that falls on a rich man's tomb
Exploring whether adversity is impartial, affecting both the rich and the poor.
Is it the same rain that falls on me
Reflecting on personal struggles and their universality.
Is it the same rain that falls on the raging see
Wondering if challenges are the same for the vast and unpredictable sea.
Is it the same rain that falls on the hanging tree
Questioning if adversity is consistent, whether natural or human-created.
Is it the same rain that falls on me
Reflecting on the shared experience of facing challenges.
