Satellites
Bobby Burns Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One life
Interleaved and were wide eyed
They can't believe it's so violent
The strength we feel
And were mighty
An entity
All of the nights bring out the wild and crazy
And were feeling the beat
You know it's our time
And were so high that the sky is beneath
And we'll survive on our beliefs
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Yeah yeah
Every night it's like do or die
We don't care but its alright
Seeing stars like were out our of minds
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Yeah yeah
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Yeah yeah
Only ourselves to please
And were restless No apologies
‘Cause were heroes
For the cause
For the good times
We strand and fall
All of the nights bring out the wild and crazy
And were feeling the beat
You know it's our time
And were so high that the sky is beneath
And we'll survive on our beliefs
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Who we are
Yeah yeah
Every night it's like do or die
We don't care but its alright
Seeing stars like were out our of minds
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Yeah yeah

Every night it's like do or die
We don't care but tis alright
Seeing stars like were out our of minds
Now we're spinning like the satellites
Every night it's like do or die
Now we're spinning like the satellites




Every night it's like do or die
Now we're spinning like the satellites

Overall Meaning

The song "Satellites" by Bobby Burns talks about the adventurous and reckless lifestyle of a group of people who live only to please themselves. They are wild and violent, yet they feel mighty as an entity. The lyrics portray the idea that they are willing to strive for their beliefs and will survive on them.


The chorus "Now we're spinning like the satellites" suggests that they are living their lives to the fullest, just like how satellites orbit around the earth without any hesitation. The lyrics also imply that they don't care about the consequences of their actions; they just want to enjoy their lives, which is why every night is like do or die for them.


The repetition of "Who we are" throughout the song signifies that even though they are wild and reckless, they are proud of who they are and won't change for anyone. The song's overall message is about living life to the fullest without worrying about the future.

@benthead

This cooperative effort of Bobby Burns and Hannah Robinson is STELLAR !  This is one of the best progressive EDM tracks that I have ever heard, and I listen to this stuff all day long. I am also 64 years old.
Thanks Bobby and Hannah.

@BrianOmega
