Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everybody knows our crimes
Feels like the end
So close to the sun
I dont wanna come back down where I'II be alone
Oh love im almost there
Its ok to be scared
Time is on my side
In Chek's song "I'm Almost There," the lyrics revolve around the idea of taking responsibility for one's actions and facing the consequences of one's mistakes. The opening lines, "Come look what we've done, everybody knows our crimes," signal that the singer is aware of their transgressions and willing to confront them. They acknowledge that it feels like the end and that they are close to the sun, a metaphor for the height of their success and the potential for a sudden, dramatic fall. However, despite the uncertainty and fear that comes with facing the unknown, the singer expresses a desire to keep pushing forward and not revert back to a state of isolation, as symbolized by the line "I don't wanna come back down where I'll be alone."
The next lines, "Oh love, I'm almost there, it's okay to be scared, time is on my side, there's no more reason to hide," suggest that the singer has a support system, perhaps a loved one, who is encouraging them to persevere through their fears and doubts. The phrase "I'm almost there" implies that the singer has a goal in mind, a destination they are striving toward, and that they are nearing it despite the obstacles they have faced. The phrase "time is on my side" speaks to the idea that with patience and persistence, success can eventually be achieved. By stating "there's no more reason to hide," the singer asserts that they are ready to face whatever may come and to accept responsibility for their actions.
