Destiny
Generdyn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You were the tide that kept me in
But even a wave will crash and end
Like a sunset
So much beauty held within
But light goes out and darkness wins
Till I buried you
Held your arms around my back
Drug the ground with every step
I carried you
Till I buried you
Now a memories all I have
As our story fades to black
This is our destiny
We saw the future
Or what we thought that it would be
But even dreams are mysteries
We climbed the mountain
And found the truth on which we stand
I watched you slip right through my hands
I carried you
Till I buried you
Held your arms around my back
Drug the ground with every step
I carried you
Till I buried you
Now a memories all I have
As our story fades to black
This is our destiny
Like a soldier marches on
You are my battle song
Even when my strength is gone
I'm holding on
I'm holding on
I carried you
Till I buried you
Held your arms around my back
Drug the ground with every step
I carried you
Till I buried you
I can see you looking back
As our story fades to black
In the song "Destiny" by Generdyn, the lyrics speak of a relationship that has come to an end. The first verse compares the person to an anchor and the tide, representing how they had a strong hold on the singer but eventually the relationship unraveled. The second verse continues this metaphor with the comparison of the person to a sunset, beautiful but fleeting. The chorus echoes the idea that their breakup was inevitable and part of their destiny.
The bridge takes a more nostalgic turn, referencing their shared memories and dreams for the future. However, the last line "I watched you slip right through my hands" suggests that despite their hopes, the relationship was doomed from the start. The final verse brings the metaphor back to an uplifting message about holding on through tough times, but the last line "As our story fades to black" reinforces the idea that their relationship has come to an end.
Overall, "Destiny" portrays a complex mix of emotions surrounding a relationship that has ended. While holding onto fond memories, the singer ultimately acknowledges that they were not meant to be together.

Like an anchor
You were a constant in my life
You were the tide that kept me in
You kept me grounded
But even a wave will crash and end
Everything comes to an end
Like a sunset
Your beauty was fleeting
So much beauty held within
You had so much to offer
But light goes out and darkness wins
Eventually, darkness prevails
I carried you
I supported you
Till I buried you
I was there until the end
Held your arms around my back
I protected and held you
Drug the ground with every step
Keeping you with me was a heavy burden
Now a memories all I have
All that remains are memories
As our story fades to black
Our relationship is ending
This is our destiny
It was always meant to be this way
We saw the future
We had a vision of what could be
Or what we thought that it would be
Our expectations were not fulfilled
But even dreams are mysteries
Dreams don't always come true
We climbed the mountain
We faced challenges together
And found the truth on which we stand
We discovered what was really important
I watched you slip right through my hands
I couldn't hold on to you
Like a soldier marches on
I continued on despite difficulties
You are my battle song
You inspired and motivated me
Even when my strength is gone
Even when I feel weak
I'm holding on
I won't give up
I can see you looking back
I still remember you
