Although one can identify many different musical influences (Robert Johnson, Jimi Hendrix, Kelly Joe Phelps, Ry Cooder) it is difficult to find one single word to define his music. This sets him with a unique and distinctive style.
Dreams of a Rebel
Frankie Chavez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've got nothing left to say.
This time I'm prepared to live through
The roads of a different state.
Nothing's gonna slow me down,
No one will be there to tell.
I'm about to loose my grim,
Sympathetic solid notions,
Of what you should give to take.
Synchronized love devotion
Generated by a living state
Everyone has something to say
But no one really speaks out loud.
When will the silent mob
Turn into a raging crowd?
Solid as dreams of a rebel
We'll always find our way
Solid as dreams of a rebel
We'll always find our way
Look inside a politician's brain
You get to see his dollar race
I wonder if he'll ever win
A ticket to a better place
Everyone has something to pay
As long as you keep pushing them
If only we could open one eye
Then maybe we could start a flame
Solid as dreams of a rebel
We'll always find our way
Solid as dreams of a rebel
We'll always find our way
Solid as dreams of a rebel
We'll always find our way
Solid as dreams of a rebel
We'll always find our way
The lyrics in Frankie Chavez's song "Dreams of a Rebel" speak to the desire for personal freedom and the frustrations with societal expectations. The opening lines suggest that the singer has found internal peace and answers to their questions, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they intend to stay on the same path. The road to freedom requires continually evolving and exploring new avenues.
The next few lines highlight the need for independence, stating that nothing and no one can hold the singer back. They are determined to shed the past, unapologetically move forward, and escape the living hell that they had been previously subjected to. The lyrics evoke an image of someone who has nothing to lose, who is driven to carve out their destiny, even if that means going against the norm.
The chorus emphasizes that this spirit of rebellion is solid and unbreakable, and it will always find a way. The verses that follow criticize the corruption in the political world and highlight the lack of people speaking out against injustices. The lyrics suggest that the singer longs for a unifying voice, a "raging crowd" that will take a stand and demand change.
Overall, "Dreams of a Rebel" showcases the drive for personal autonomy even in a world that often curtails and suppresses it. The lyrics inspire individuality and motivate listeners to pursue their unique paths while also seeking common ground with others who share similar values.
