Awake
Freedom Fry Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sister's got a future
Momma's got a heartbreak
Girl I curse the day I met you

Never feeling lonely
When I had it this way
Roll out of bed and go
Wake up we'll go way and then we make up
We're gonna go wherever it may take us

Awake
Here we go
Awake
Here we go, here we go
Awake
Here we go
Awake
Here we go, here we go again

Faces on the posters
Head is in the lampshade
Ever since the day I met you

No one's ever known
Least not ever this way
Take a step on the winding road

Living another day cause we can't stop
Feeling the tidal wave start to shake us

Awake
Here we go
Awake
Here we go, here we go
Awake
Here we go
Awake
Here we go, here we go again

We all started out now, didn't know where to go
We'll never know, we'll never know
We'll walk through the park to pave an easy road
I'll get you home, I'll get you home

We're gonna go forever, we're awake
Here we go
Awake
Here we go, here we go
Awake
Here we go




Awake
Here we go, here we go again

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Freedom Fry's "Awake" are about a person who is reflecting on a past relationship that has left a lasting impact on them. They are torn between the happiness they once felt with their partner and the heartbreak that the relationship ultimately led to. The chorus captures the conflicting emotions of feeling awake and ready to seize the day, while also feeling a sense of exhaustion and repetition in their actions.


The opening lines, "Sister's got a future / Momma's got a heartbreak / Girl I curse the day I met you" suggest that the singer's partner has caused pain not just for them, but for their family as well. The verse continues by highlighting the sense of freedom and independence the singer once felt before entering the relationship ("Never feeling lonely / When I had it this way / Roll out of bed and go"), before the chorus brings the listener back to the present day, where they are still grappling with the aftermath of the break-up.


The second verse touches on the sense of disorientation that can follow the end of a relationship ("Faces on the posters / Head is in the lampshade / Ever since the day I met you"), and for a moment the singer wonders if they will ever find their way again ("No one's ever known / Least not ever this way"). However, the song ends on a hopeful note, with the singer promising to continue moving forward ("We're gonna go forever, we're awake / Here we go").
