Stronger
Gregory Esayan & Astroleaf Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another year cut off my youth
Yeah I was born to ride but fate took off with my fuel
Oh everything I′ve always wanted to do
Is beyond my reach as I am stuck here in this room
When I come back will they know my face
Will our freedom lead us back towards our habit of disdain
Oh if I make it out alive
Will you come with me as I ride into paradise
Oh I feel stronger
Cause I belong here, outside, with all the wonders of this life
Oh I feel stronger
Cause I belong here, outside, where all my senses come alive
I've been numb for a while now
It took some time for me to realize
I can′t pretend that I don't feel overwhelmed by now
And I pray that soon we'll breathe alright
Will we remember them all by name
Can we sustain a peaceful world without this hatred and this pain
If I make it out alive
Will you come with me as I ride into paradise
Oh I feel stronger
Cause I belong here, outside, with all the wonders of this life




Oh I feel stronger
Cause I belong here, outside, where all my senses come alive

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Stronger" by Gregory Esayan and Astroleaf are a reflection on the nature of human limitation and the struggle to overcome it. The song takes on a reflective and introspective tone, as the singer explores the themes of regret, isolation, and hope. The opening lines speak to the experience of aging and feeling as though one's youth has been taken away. The singer laments that they were "born to ride" - a metaphor for pursuing one's passions and dreams - but that fate has "taken off with [their] fuel."


The second verse builds on this sense of lament, as the singer acknowledges feeling "numb" and overwhelmed by the challenges they face. They express a sense of longing for a world where peace and love prevail, where people can come together in a spirit of reconciliation and mutual understanding. It is against this backdrop that the refrain of the song emerges: "Oh I feel stronger / 'Cause I belong here, outside, with all the wonders of this life / Oh I feel stronger / 'Cause I belong here, outside, where all my senses come alive."


The refrain is a poignant reminder that despite the struggles and limitations we face, there is still beauty and wonder in the world that we can experience and draw strength from. The song ends on a note of hope, as the singer looks towards a brighter future and asks their listener to join them on their journey.

Another year cut off my youth
