Above Us
Enshine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One sealed black window
One only frame to the outside
So many days, so many years
Lost in this fading slumber
You are connected, to the world above us
This is a new step down in your life
Follow your fate, unleash your mind
You feel me time to time
Every night you repeal your will
Come... Come to me...
Release yourself, let you dawn

Forlorn in your cell
There´s no daylight to hope
All these voices you hear
Like a child in a crowd
Unblinded by your own fear
You start to see by your eyes
Spellbound by your new sense
Unbind your chains
Ride freedom, once again

Leave your fears, reach the skies beyond
Let yourself lead your insight




Leave your fears, reach the skies beyond
You´re no longer part of this world

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Enshine's song "Above Us" speak of breaking free from the confines of a cell or a confined existence to connect with the outside world. The first few lines illustrate a setting with only one window, which is sealed and black, representing an individual's disconnect from the world. It is a place where time seems to stand still, and the weary individual is trapped in a state of sleep. However, there is an indication that something has shifted, and the person can sense the world that exists beyond their confinement.


The following verses further emphasize an individual's yearning to be free. The daily struggle against one's own will and the voices in one's head represent a sense of entrapment that the person is trying to break free from. The lines "Forlorn in your cell/There's no daylight to hope/All these voices you hear/Like a child in a crowd" take the imagery of confinement to another level, suggesting that the person is searching for a sense of identity and purpose amidst the cacophony of daily life.


The lyrics also suggest that the outside world, which the singer is yearning to connect with, represents something freeing and life-changing. The words "Follow your fate, unleash your mind" further symbolize the liberation that this person is seeking.
