No Matter What
Boyzone(男孩地带) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know I'll love forever
I know no matter what
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would hear God say
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
And I will keep you safe and strong
And shelter from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born
No matter who they follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies are blue
No matter what the end is
My life began with you
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know, I know
I know this love's forever
That's all that matters now
No Matter What
The song “No Matter What” by Boyzone talks about acceptance and unwavering belief in what you think is right, in the face of external opposition. The lyrics are about remaining faithful to oneself and to what one believes no matter the circumstances. The opening line, "No matter what they tell us, no matter what they do," suggests that there is a powerful force on the other side trying to persuade or threaten them. But the singer is determined to remain steadfast in their beliefs no matter the cost.
Moreover, the desire to keep this faith is emphasized by the lines "I can't be what I'm not, I know I'll love forever, I know no matter what." These lines guide one to hold onto one’s beliefs even in opposition. In essence, the song is about believing in yourself and standing up for what you know as true and the power of love.
Overall, the song expresses the strength of faith in the face of opposition, the importance of unwavering belief in oneself, and the unbreakable power of love.
