Carry On
Hopeful Echoes: Unveiling the Meaning Behind 'Carry On' by The Samples
Lyrics
Trusting is one thing I don't know
Expressing uncertainty or difficulty in trusting others.
When it comes to the campaigning men
Expressing skepticism towards political figures or leaders.
But I'll meet you at the election
Commitment to participate in the electoral process.
When I vote for the hope of this land
Voting in favor of the hope and positive future of the nation.
Carry on
Encouragement to persist or endure in the face of challenges.
Carry on
-Just take a good look around you
Observation of socio-economic disparities, urging awareness.
The ghettos begin at your feet
-And there's a family of six through a window
-Looking way down at you on the street
-Carry on
Reiteration of the encouragement to carry on despite difficulties.
Carry on
-Send us in any direction
Reflection on the disorienting nature of life's journey, losing intangible things.
Airports, buses and cabs
-But somehow through all this confusion
-We lose things that we've never had
-Carry on
Continued emphasis on perseverance and resilience.
Carry on
-A funeral was held in the winter
Depiction of a somber event, possibly a funeral, and the emotional impact.
The old lady pull from her purse
-A thoughand tears on a napkin
-While waving away at the hearse
-Carry on
Reiteration of the call to carry on despite life's challenges.
Carry on
-Trusting is one thing I don't know
Repeating the theme of mistrust towards political figures but a commitment to participate in elections for a hopeful future.
When it comes to the campaigning men
-But I'll meet you at the election
-When I vote for the hope of this land
-Carry on
Final encouragement to persist and endure.
Carry on
