Universe
F-uki Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am someone, whatever that means
In a world where things are only as they seem
Wave after wave, from the deep dark sea
Sometimes it is nice just to be
Its getting hard to feel far away
I feel the sunlight in my veins
And everything too, god I thought I knew
But I don't know a thing
And when I see that diamond ring
I feel so at home, the void I used to roam
Then by the turn of his hand, I was a boy then a man
And time was our friend, till the end, till the end, till the end
I know I'll die someday, but I think I'll be okay
Take my flesh turn it to dust
Do what you do if you must
And I'll be okay
You'll be okay
We'll all be okay
All be okay
I wanna know who I am baby
I wanna know who I am baby
Who was the first guy who chose to look at the sky and say
"The fuck is real life? And what am I?"
And after thousands of years, the answer's still not too clear
So maybe everyones dumb or maybe answer there's none
These shores where once you felt so out of place
Have captured you with sun in your eyes and wind in your face
Yesterdays woe, you watch it fade on the blue horizon
The world is pouring into your eyes when you realize
Theres a universe in you
Universe in you




Universe in you
Universe in you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to F-uki's song Universe are an introspective exploration of identity and existence. The first line, "I am someone, whatever that means," sets the tone for the rest of the song as a contemplation of self. The second line acknowledges the way in which the world can be limiting, only allowing things to be as they seem. The metaphor of wave after wave from the deep dark sea conveys a sense of being overwhelmed, but also the possibility of being enveloped and comforted. The singer finds solace in the simple act of existence, "sometimes it is nice just to be."


As the song progresses, the singer grapples with the idea of knowing oneself. The line "everything too, god I thought I knew, but I don't know a thing" captures the sense of uncertainty that comes with self-exploration. The mention of a diamond ring and feeling at home suggest that the singer has found some sense of belonging, but it is not without effort. The confusion surrounding identity and existence is compounded by the realization that everyone else is grappling with the same questions, "maybe everyones dumb or maybe answer there's none."


In the end, the singer arrives at a place of acceptance. The repeated refrain of "we'll all be okay" conveys a sense of peace with the idea of mortality and ephemerality. The universe in you becomes a source of wonder and unity, rather than confusion and isolation. While there may not be clear answers to the big questions of life, the singer finds comfort in the idea that they are not alone in asking them.
