Rise Again
DJ Sammy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the name of life
What a thrill
Like a steely knife
It hit my face
See it left without a trace
Life's been short
Paid my bills
Just to rise above secret hills
There's been awful pain all through this race
I've made it to a peaceful place
I know I will make it again
See my consciousness is bright and clear
I'm standing tall and have no fear at all
See me standing tall and have no fear at all
Take away my pride
I will rise again
Though it seems so hard I know
You will see me again
Seasons come and go
I will rise again
Deep inside I know
I'll be back again
I'll be back again
I'll be back again
The lyrics to DJ Sammy's "Rise Again" explore themes of resilience, perseverance, and hope in the face of adversity. The song's opening lines - "I’ve been taught / In the name of life / What a thrill / Like a steely knife" - suggest that the singer has had a tumultuous life, one that has been thrilling but also painful. The use of the metaphor of a "steely knife" to represent life implies that it can be sharp and dangerous, capable of causing harm.
The second verse - "Life's been short / In the name of love / Paid my bills / Just to rise above secret hills" - highlights the singer's struggles to find love and financial stability. Despite these challenges, however, the singer has managed to overcome them and reach a "peaceful place." The chorus - "Take away my pride / I will rise again / Though it seems so hard I know / You will see me again" - further emphasizes the singer's resilience and determination to succeed, no matter what obstacles may be in their path.
The final verse - "Seasons come and go / I will rise again / Deep inside I know / I'll be back again" - reinforces the idea that life is full of ups and downs, but that the singer is confident in their ability to overcome whatever challenges lie ahead. Overall, "Rise Again" is a powerful anthem of hope and perseverance, encouraging listeners to never give up on their dreams and to keep fighting, no matter how difficult the journey may be.

Movies were gold for sure.
I think music 2003-11.5 was truely memorable. 1990s was too but 03-10 hit HARD. 11.5 on was full on doldrums but we had some SOLID good ones pre youtube and gen 1 Youtube
when singles were actually a CD with one or two songs on it
VHS tapes blockbuster WinXP SP1, 2 and 3.
then cell phones and PTT phones rolled out mainstream everywhere.
