Sooner or Later
Daniel Ghattas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not coming down this time
The truth is you were hard to find
And it's time you know the truth
'Cause your kind is living proof

That sooner or later I'll be found
Sooner or later coming down
Sooner or later we'll begin
Out of nothingness and back again

Sooner or later I will fall
Sooner or later, afterall
Sooner or later we will meet
As a pair of strangers on the street

I surrender gracefully
As every wall of mine you breach
And it's time you know the truth
'Cause your kind is living proof

That sooner or later
I'll speak with my eyes
Making my way through this paradise

And sooner or later
I won't have to fight




Give into you
'Cause you feel so right

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Daniel Ghattas's song "Sooner or Later" speak of a certain struggle within oneself. The singer declares that he will not be coming down this time, and that the truth is hard to find. He then acknowledges that it is time for the truth to be known, because the person he is addressing represents a certain kind of living proof that sooner or later, he will be found. The song seems to be about surrendering to one's own inner demons, in order to find peace and acceptance.


The lines "Sooner or later I'll be found" and "Sooner or later coming down" may denote an internal struggle to overcome some sort of personal obstacle. This could be a negative aspect of one's character or past that needs to be confronted and accepted. Similarly, the lines "Sooner or later I will fall" and "Sooner or later, after all" may reflect a sense of inevitability, that every fall or failure is a learning experience leading towards growth and eventual success. The song ends on a note of acceptance, stating that the singer will give into the situation because it feels right, and ultimately, he will speak with his eyes and make his way through paradise.


Overall, "Sooner or Later" is a powerful anthem that speaks to the human condition, acknowledging that life is a journey full of roadblocks and failures, but ultimately, the path towards growth and acceptance is a worthwhile one.
