The Light
Dj Beyonda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A work sore hand to catch some rain
It turns up empty, all is dry
And all you ever wanted was some rain
Was some rain
If heaven is the future
Why is it that that you refuse to go
You really should do more than just complain
Just complain
Such a rotten taste
Is left when you don't think to say that
It's just such a sorry waste
To take the easy way out of the pain
Of the pain
When the end shines from the deep
And all the hate and all the hell that history has released
Would tremble before your valor if you'd
Just get down on your knees
And promise to all your children true
That you will live in peace
Where's the light to shine on me
Oh, send me something, send me please
Cleanse my body, close my eyes
I'm naked and prepared to die
In the starry atmosphere
When all the questions disappear
And pressure with a salty taste
Exalts the tears that soak your face
The song "The Light" by Dj Beyonda explores the themes of hope, perseverance, and finding inner strength in difficult times. The opening lines of the song express a sense of disappointment and frustration as the singer realizes that their efforts to improve their situation have been futile. Despite their determination to succeed and find some relief in their struggles, they find themselves empty-handed and hopeless. The metaphor of catching rain with a work sore hand conveys the idea of how even the simplest things seem unattainable when one is struggling.
The song then delves into the idea of heaven being a future destination, yet the singer refusing to go there. This suggests that the concept of heaven may seem abstract or unattainable to some individuals. The lyrics then urge the listener to take steps to change their circumstance instead of complaining. The metaphor of rotting fruit highlights the idea that it's a waste to let opportunities go to waste and not take action to change one's path.
The chorus speaks of finding the light, which represents guidance or a beacon of hope during difficult times. The singer asks for something, anything, to help cleanse their body and ease their pain, ultimately surrendering themselves to fate. The final verse reflects on the ultimate end, where all questions disappear and the pressure subsides, leaving only tears on one's face.
Overall, "The Light" is a song that speaks to the struggles of the human experience and the need for hope and perseverance to overcome adversity.
