Spirit
Black Happy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I watch the circles cross and join as one
And when I'm asking for someone to begin again
I hope that you won't turn around and run
Don't we ever think about the other side my soul and I are just
Looking for some time
And if we ever get what we are looking for
Maybe we'll get something that we can't ignore
She won't maneuver into things she shouldn't be
And as she raised her head I saw the face of man
I could only jump back and think of what I'd seen
Spirit rise
And if I'm not too sure about the state I'm in
I watch the circles cross and join as one
And when I'm asking for someone to begin again
I hope that you won't turn around and run
Spirit rise
Don't we ever think about the other side
My soul and I are just looking for some time
And if we ever get what we are looking for
Maybe we'll get something that we can't ignore
The lyrics to "Spirit" by Black Happy explore the concept of searching for something greater and the potential for spiritual awakening. The opening lines of the song, "And if I'm not too sure about the state I'm in / I watch the circles cross and join as one," suggest a sense of confusion or uncertainty about the singer's current state of being, but also a recognition of the interconnectedness of all things. The repetition of "Spirit rise" throughout the song further emphasizes the desire for a spiritual awakening or connection to something greater.
The verse about the lady with sand-covered feet possibly represents a metaphor for staying grounded and not getting swept up in things that are not meant for you. When she raises her head and reveals the face of a man, this could symbolize a moment of clarity or realization about the male figures in her life.
The chorus, "Don't we ever think about the other side / My soul and I are just looking for some time / And if we ever get what we are looking for / Maybe we'll get something that we can't ignore," seems to suggest that the singer is on a journey of self-discovery and seeking fulfillment, but perhaps hasn't yet found what they are looking for. It also suggests the possibility of encountering something significant and undeniable in their search.

And if I'm not too sure about the state I'm in
If I'm unsure about my emotional state
I watch the circles cross and join as one
I observe the patterns and connections around me
And when I'm asking for someone to begin again
When I'm seeking a fresh start with someone
I hope that you won't turn around and run
I hope you won't abandon me
Don't we ever think about the other side
Do we consider opposing viewpoints
My soul and I are just looking for some time
We're searching for some peace and solitude
And if we ever get what we are looking for
If we find what we're seeking
Maybe we'll get something that we can't ignore
Perhaps we'll discover something undeniable
I saw a lady whose feet were covered by the sand
I witnessed a woman with sandy feet
She won't maneuver into things she shouldn't be
She avoids getting involved in inappropriate situations
And as she raised her head I saw the face of man
She looked up and revealed her masculine side
I could only jump back and think of what I'd seen
I was taken aback and pondered the situation
Spirit rise
Be uplifted spiritually
And if I'm not too sure about the state I'm in
If I'm uncertain about my current condition
I watch the circles cross and join as one
I observe the interconnectedness of life
And when I'm asking for someone to begin again
When I seek a fresh start with someone
I hope that you won't turn around and run
I want you to stay with me and not flee
Spirit rise
Elevate spiritually
Don't we ever think about the other side
Do we consider alternative perspectives
My soul and I are just looking for some time
We long for a respite from the chaos of life
And if we ever get what we are looking for
If we achieve our desired goals
Maybe we'll get something that we can't ignore
Perhaps we'll discover something too significant to overlook
