the way home
Divinity Compromised Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Monuments of stone guide the way towards our destiny
The final path lies among the stars summoned by the ones
We once called gods

We take steps toward our new evolution
The way home is found in unlocking the past
Unlocking the past
Secrets tell the truth we all must know
Hidden from us by those in power
Unearthing ancient history, revealed
We all are free

We take steps toward our new evolution
The way home is found in unlocking the past
Unlocking the past

When the shafts align, our passage is granted
Ascending to the heavens
We leave our shells behind, united by separation
Promises everlasting life
Everlasting life

We take steps toward our new evolution




The way home is found in unlocking the past
Unlocking the past

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Divinity Compromised's song "The Way Home" speaks to a journey of spiritual and personal discovery through unlocking the truth of ancient history. The passage towards enlightenment is guided by "monuments of stone", a reference to ancient structures that hold significance in many cultures. The final path lies among the stars, which represents a higher realm of existence that can only be reached through summoning the 'gods'.


However, the journey doesn't end there, as the lyrics emphasize the importance of unlocking the past by unearthing "secrets [that] tell the truth we all must know". This refers to hidden knowledge that has been purposely kept from humanity by those in power. By uncovering this knowledge, everyone can be free to achieve their new evolution and find their way home.


The lyrics also touch upon the idea of physical ascension into heaven, referencing the alignment of shafts that grant passage towards the stars. However, the final destination is not a physical location, but rather everlasting life promised through spiritual enlightenment. Overall, the song encourages listeners to seek truth and knowledge in order to evolve and find their way towards a higher state of being.
