Let Him In
Bishop Ronald E. Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got something I wanna
Shout about
I've spent too much time
Soaking in the remnants of
The hate, the trace they left behind
And the trees the begin to sway
From the weight of all this rain
Can't promise not to make a mess
Unbolt the door and
Let me in
Let me in let me in
Where do you go
When the thunder and rain
Keeps on crashin down
We can't keep hiding
The water is rising
We slowly drown
Ohhhh ohhhh eohhhh...
Oh won't you please let me in
This fist is strained from clenching
I don't even know how it begins
The wall is coming down
The rain is pouring
As we reach beyond our limits
T' higher ground
Is beyond our reach
Let me in before we're
Lost and then our bodies
Plug the breech
The promises we made
Open the door and we
Might have a chance
A chance of being saved
Where do you go
When the thunder and rain
Keeps on crashin down
We can't keep hiding
The water is rising
We slowly drown
Ohhhh ohhhh eohhhh...
We can't keep surviving
The water is rising
The machine is broken
Intentions unfolding
We need agitation
And new information
With our fists we were hopin'
But the door will not open
In Bishop Ronald E. Brown's song Let Him In, the lyrics describe a sense of urgency and desperation as the singer pleads to be allowed in. The song seems to be about someone who is dealing with the aftermath of hate and negativity that has left a deep mark in their life. The singer recognizes that the weight of this heavy rain (symbolic of the negativity) is beginning to affect not only themselves but everyone around them, and they are pleading to be let in to make things right. They promise not to make things worse, but rather to help fix things. The singer sees this as an opportunity to change our current path before it’s too late and the consequences become more serious.
The song seems to be a metaphor for the state of society in general. With thunder and rain representing the negativity, the rising water symbolizes the consequences of not addressing these issues. The singer recognizes that we cannot keep hiding from the problems and that we need to take action. The song encourages openness and acceptance as a way forward and recognizes that it’s not too late to change course if we are willing to listen and work together.
