DJ Antoine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ain't goin’ away
The gravity pulls
And I feel the weight
We're all running scared
Keep the wolves at bay
We're going to hell
And I ain't taking the blame
I don't know everything
But I'm holding on
Cause I know there's always hope
I don't know everything but I know
It's gonna change
I hear the sirens
Breaking the silence
But they can't hold us down
They try to divide us
When we should rise up
Further from the ground
Let's take it up
Elevator
We were ready to drown
In the storm of rage
City of gold
But so depraved
But we took iron from the chains
Freedom called before the flames
I didn't know everything
I was holding on
Cause I know there’s always hope
I don't know everything
But I know it's gonna change
I hear the sirens
Breaking the silence
But they can't hold us down
They try to divide us
When we should rise up
Further from the ground
Let's take it up
Elevator
As we rise up through the smoke
Every scar and every fault
But our spirits never broken down
If we know we're not alone
We can fly and we can float
And elevate
I hear the sirens
Breaking the silence
But they can't hold us down
They try to divide us
When we should rise up
Further from the ground
Let's take it up
Elevator

The singer acknowledges that they don't know everything, but they are still holding on and hoping for better times ahead. They encourage listeners to take a stand and rise up in the face of adversity, rather than being held down or divided by outside forces. The elevator metaphor represents the idea of lifting oneself up and reaching new heights, in spite of the challenges that lie ahead.
Overall, the message of "Elevator" is one of resilience and determination in the face of difficult circumstances. The lyrics urge listeners to keep pushing forward, even when the world around them feels threatening and overwhelming.
Line by Line Meaning
There's blood in the air
Everything is tense and dangerous
Ain't goin’ away
The tension isn't dissipating
The gravity pulls
The pressure is mounting
And I feel the weight
The pressure is getting to me
We're all running scared
Everyone is afraid
Keep the wolves at bay
Protect ourselves from the dangers
We're going to hell
The situation is bad
And I ain't taking the blame
I refuse to be held responsible for this
I don't know everything
I'm not an expert
But I'm holding on
I'm staying strong
Cause I know there's always hope
I have faith things will get better
I don't know everything but I know
I'm aware of my limitations
It's gonna change
Things are going to improve
I hear the sirens
Emergency services are on their way
Breaking the silence
Disrupting the peace and quiet
But they can't hold us down
We won't be suppressed
They try to divide us
They want to pit us against each other
When we should rise up
We should come together and resist
Further from the ground
Distance ourselves from danger
Let's take it up
Let's rise above the situation
Elevator
Moving up metaphorically
We were ready to drown
We were overwhelmed
In the storm of rage
In the midst of all the anger
City of gold
A desirable but corrupted place
But so depraved
But morally corrupt
But we took iron from the chains
We found strength in the midst of oppression
Freedom called before the flames
We fought for our freedom before it was too late
As we rise up through the smoke
Rising above the chaos
Every scar and every fault
Acknowledging our imperfections
But our spirits never broken down
We remain resilient
If we know we're not alone
If we have support
We can fly and we can float
We can overcome the obstacles
And elevate
We can rise above it all
