Roll With It
Bare Jams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And find a place to be
Steady on steadfast
Is all that we needed
And I wish you were here
Oh to see it all
Often wonder what you would have thought
You would've made of all the hate that's going on
When will we realise
When will we realise the truth?
When will we realise
When will we realise the truth?
And it's all coming back to me
Can we just stay here for a while longer?
Oh 'cause we’ve got unfinished things to do
If the past was built on destruction
And the future's blind by distraction
Just love the ground the heals you
Feeds you, but doesn't need you
And I wish you were here, oh
Oh to see it all
Often wonder how we got so lost
In a daze from all the change that's going on
But you gotta roll with it
When will we realise
When will we realise the truth? Oh yeah
When will we realise
When will we realise the truth?
Our earth you know is changing
Blindside and bitter tasting truth
Which side do we fall on?
Which side are we all gonna choose?
'Cause it's all coming back to you
When will we realise
When will we realise the truth?
When will we realise
When will we realise the truth?
When will we realise
When will we realise the truth?
When will we realise
When will we realise the truth?
When will we realise?
The lyrics to Bare Jams' song "Roll With It" convey a sense of longing for a peaceful and stable existence amidst the chaos and negativity of the world. The opening lines express a desire to find a place where they can be steady and steadfast, a respite from all the hate and turmoil. The singer wishes that someone important to them could witness and experience this clarity and serenity.
The chorus poses a series of questions, asking when humanity will realize the truth. It suggests that there is a truth that needs to be acknowledged and understood, perhaps pertaining to the current state of the world. The repetition of this question emphasizes the urgency and concern the singer feels.
The second verse continues the theme of seeking solace and cannot escape the past and its destructive tendencies, while the future remains distracted and uncertain. Loving the ground that heals and feeds, but doesn't require anything in return, is presented as a way to find stability in an ever-changing world. The singer once again expresses the wish for someone to witness the current state of affairs, wondering how they became so lost in the face of constant change.
The bridge introduces the idea of the changing earth and the bitter taste of truth, suggesting that it is time to choose a side. There is an implication that the truth may be harsh and uncomfortable, but it needs to be faced. The line "it's all coming back to you" reinforces the idea that the consequences of our actions are catching up with us.
Overall, "Roll With It" speaks to the need for acceptance and adaptability in the face of a turbulent world. It encourages introspection and urges listeners to awaken to the truth and make choices that align with their values.

Oh 'cause we’ve got unfinished things to do
Oh because there are tasks left incomplete
If the past was built on destruction
If previous events were characterized by devastation
And the future's blind by distraction
And upcoming times are obscured by diversions
Just love the ground that heals you
Just embrace the source of comfort and healing
Feeds you, but doesn't need you
Nurtures you, but doesn't rely on you
Often wonder how we got so lost
Frequently contemplate how we became so confused
In a daze from all the change that's going on
Overwhelmed by the continuous transformation occurring
When will we realise the truth? Oh yeah
When will we acknowledge the reality?
Our earth you know is changing
We are aware that our planet is evolving
Blindside and bitter tasting truth
Unforeseen and unpleasant reality
Which side do we fall on?
Which stance or viewpoint do we adopt?
Which side are we all gonna choose?
Which position will we all decide upon?
'Cause it's all coming back to you
Because the consequences will return to you
When will we realise the truth?
When will we recognize the reality?
When will we realise the truth?
When will we comprehend the reality?
When will we realise the truth?
When will we acknowledge the reality?
When will we realise the truth?
When will we recognize the reality?
When will we realise?
When will we comprehend?
