Under the Sun
Fortune Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No grind for us
This makes sense
Today we'll find our role
Under control
Joking 'bout time, in a world
I lie with it, I die within
Under the sun
What's gone wrong?
Until when we'll carry on
Lead this life? We have lost control
It's good to be here sometimes
It's good to be there alive
Until death, we'll carry on
I feel
I could be the one
I could be
Until we touch the burning sun
I feel
I could be the one
I could be
I'm not really scared of it
No doubt, for me
We keep on driving blind
Without caring about
Joking 'bout time, in a world
I lie with it, I die within
'Cause I ain't really blind, become
Someone, unknown
Until death, we'll carry on
I feel
I could be the one
I could be
Until we touch the burning sun
I feel
I should win this time
I could win
Until death, we'll carry on
I feel
I could be the one
I could be
Until the sun will burn it all
I'll heal
I could be the one
I could be
Until death, we'll carry on
I feel
I could be the one
I could be
Until the sun will burn it all
I'll heal
I could be the one
I could be
I'm not really scared
of it, no doubt for me
In "Under The Sun," Fortune reflects on the ups and downs of life and the struggles of maintaining control in a world that often feels out of our control. The lyrics suggest a sense of dissatisfaction with the way things are, with lines like "What's gone wrong?" and "Lead this life? We have lost control." The singer seems to be searching for purpose, and finds comfort in the idea of being young and having fun, but acknowledges that this cannot last forever. The repeated refrain of "Until death, we'll carry on" suggests a determination to keep going despite the unknown and unpredictable nature of life.
The use of the phrase "under the sun" implies a sort of existential questioning - what is the meaning of life? - and the playful lyrics about "joking 'bout time" suggest a refusal to take everything too seriously, but still acknowledging the inevitability of mortality. The singer seems to find solace in the idea that they "could be the one" to make a difference, to find their place in the world, but recognizes that it is a struggle to get there.
Overall, "Under The Sun" is a contemplative song about the complexities of life and the human experience. It captures the conflicting feelings of longing for control while also being at the mercy of circumstances beyond our control.
