Upadam
Lipali Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Podnosze, sie podnosze
Tak wiele musze miec sil
Barwy dnia - ja w nich tone
Mysli wiruja po glowie
Chce sie swobodnie unosic
Zrzucam te betonowe buty
I wiem, ze moge
wiem, ze moge
choc mam pod skora cos jakby strach
lecz mimo tego wiem, ze moge
zanurzyc sie w bezmiarze dnia
jak kamien toczysz sie
na nowo zbierasz w sobie
jak wiele w tobie jest sil
swiatlo niech w tobie plonie
i mysli wiruja po glowie
chcesz sie swobodnie unosic
i zrzucasz te betonowe buty
I wiem, ze moge
wiem, ze moge
choc mam pod skora cos jakby strach
lecz mimo tego wiem, ze moge
zanurzyc sie w bezmiarze dnia
The song "Upadam" by Lipali is a powerful anthem about overcoming fear and obstacles to find strength and freedom. The lyrics are sung from the perspective of someone who has fallen down, but is determined to get back up and keep moving forward. The singer acknowledges that they have some fear and anxiety beneath the surface, but they are able to push past it and embrace the possibilities of the day. They release themselves from the weight of their problems and the world around them by shedding their metaphorical "concrete shoes" and opening themselves up to the vastness of the world.
The chorus repeats the phrase "wiem, ze moge," which translates to "I know I can" in English. This simple phrase is repeated several times throughout the song, emphasizing the singer's resolve and determination to overcome any obstacles in their way. The idea of pushing through fear and uncertainty to find freedom and strength is a universal theme that many listeners can relate to and find inspiration from.
Overall, "Upadam" is a hopeful and uplifting song that encourages listeners to persevere even when things seem tough. The song reminds us that we are capable of great things if we are willing to shed our fears and limitations and embrace the unknown.
