Soul Symphony
Chuck Love Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony
The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony

When I feel the times comin' on
I ask myself, "what went wrong?"
What can I do to ease my mind?
I turn to you, you make it right

I find so much joy in your melody
Your rhythm brings something out of me
As a darkness falls and the stars will shine
You raise my spirits each and every time

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony (Yeah)

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony (Soul symphony)

The music takes a hold of me (Come on)
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony (Soul symphony)

The music takes a hold of me (Yeah)
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony (Soul symphony, soul symphony, soul symphony)

(Oh, oh-oh-oh)

The music, music, music

I got this thing on my side
Day and night, it gets me by
I got this thing on my side
And it bleeds from my soul, it bleeds from my soul

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony (Soul symphony)

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony (Soul symphony, soul symphony)

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony (Yeah)

The music takes a hold of me
Sets my spirit free
Soul symphony (Soul symphony, soul symphony, soul symphony)

I got this thing on my side
Day and night, it gets me by
I got this thing on my side
And it bleeds from my soul, it bleeds from my soul

Soul symphony, soul symphony, soul symphony





Soul symphony, soul symphony, soul symphony

Overall Meaning

Chuck Love's song Soul Symphony is about how music can help someone in difficult times by setting their spirit free. The artist describes how the music takes a hold of him and sets his spirit free. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the power of music and the escape it provides. The singer asks himself what went wrong and how he can ease his mind when he feels the times coming on. He turns to music and finds joy in its melody. As the darkness falls and the stars shine, the music raises his spirits each and every time.


The lyrics describe how music is a constant companion that gets the artist by day and night. The repeated reference to "this thing on my side" could suggest a musical instrument, perhaps a guitar or another stringed instrument that the artist uses to create his own "soul symphony." The final repetition of "soul symphony" in the song's outro reinforces the theme of the song and the soulful quality of the music.

Watching him live is one of the most amazing performances... He is so talented on and off the decks - love that he not only incorporates brass into his music but that he plays the instruments himself - what an artist!
