Carry Me On
Brookes Brothers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Grew up on the wrong side of the road
But I believe I grew strong
Just enough to carry me on
But I believe I grew strong
To carry me on
There are dark clouds where I’m from
Grew up on the wrong side of the road
Just enough to carry me on
[RAP]
I grew up surrounded by the dark clouds
Where every other min someone’s bringing arms house
If ya don’t fit in
You will just get cast out
Luckily that’s all my past now
Music that’s what passion feeds on
So long as I’m alive I’ll always be strong
Say I feel sick
And my summer is gone
If I take a stage dive it’ll carry me on
Sayin I’ll be down
But I’ll turn you round turn you round
Sayin I’ll be down
Face to the ground
Turnin round round round
Just enough to carry me on
There are dark clouds where I’m from
Grew up on the wrong side of the road
But I believe I grew strong
Just enough to carry me on
Sayin I’ll be down
Facin down
Turnin round round round

[RAP]
The following lines are part of a rap verse
I grew up surrounded by the dark clouds
My upbringing was marked by hardship and adversity
Where every other min someone’s bringing arms house
Violence and conflict were commonplace in my community
If ya don’t fit in
If you don't conform to the norm
You will just get cast out
You'll be ostracized by others
Luckily that’s all my past now
Thankfully, I've moved beyond that now
Music that’s what passion feeds on
My passion for music sustains me
So long as I’m alive I’ll always be strong
I'll always have inner strength as long as I'm alive
Say I feel sick
If I'm feeling low or unwell
And my summer is gone
And my happiness has faded away
If I take a stage dive it’ll carry me on
If I immerse myself in my music, it will lift me up
Sayin I’ll be down
Even if I'm feeling low or defeated
But I’ll turn you round turn you round
I'll rise up and overcome my challenges
Sayin I’ll be down
Even if I'm feeling low or defeated
Face to the ground
Feeling hopeless and helpless
Turnin round round round
But I keep fighting and pushing forward
Just enough to carry me on
My inner strength is enough to keep me going
There are dark clouds where I’m from
I come from a place of hardship and challenges
Grew up on the wrong side of the road
I come from a disadvantaged background
But I believe I grew strong
Despite my struggles, I have developed inner strength
Just enough to carry me on
My strength is just sufficient to sustain me
Sayin I’ll be down
Even if I'm feeling low or defeated
Facin down
Feeling hopeless and helpless
Turnin round round round
But I keep fighting and pushing forward

Both good, but the hip-hop verse that was left out puts the original on a different level, IMO
