Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I make it
If I make it
If I make it
If I make it

Riding home, and it's dark and chilly
First you take the light and hold it
Remember who you are and where you're gonna be
What's inside you is sacred

If I make it
If I make it
If I make it
If I make it

Riding home, and it's dark and chilly
First you take the light and hold it
Remember who you are and where you're gonna be
What's inside you is sacred

If I make it
If I make it

Riding home, and it's dark and chilly
First you take the light and hold it




Remember who you are and where you're gonna be
What's inside you is sacred

Does Anybody else see the message on the song, or what it "really" talks about? maybe i'm paranoid but i clearly read that this is talking about death and transcendence of the soul, in this dark times of course ...

If I make it - if she make it out of the earth at the moment of death, if she does not get fooled again by the parasitic entities that control humanity, and keep us reincarnating over and over again without memory of past lives, feeding upon our negative emotions


Riding home , On this dark energy - "riding home" (where her soul really belongs to) and the dark energy refers to dodge the dark energy of this parasitic entities to get out of here



First you take the light , And hold it - your inner light, the light of your soul, hold on to that light to defeat the darkness and get out



Remember who you are , And where you're gonna be - once dead and de-incarnated in the astral plane or 4th dimension, try to remember who you really are and where did you came from to this planet, and in this way get back home



What's inside you , Is sacred - of course this means to everyones souls/energetic body, our really and true being, inmortal...
