Expectations
HUNTAR Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No one ever heard you, then you talked
Such a simple sound, but I can drown you out.
Run, till doubt is filling up your lungs,
It's always preying on the young.
I try to drown it out,
I still hear the sound.
We make a way, we find a way.
On and on and on and on
We break away, we live with expectations, expectations.
And oh, will it ever be enough?
And oh, the lust,
You know it gives me such a rush.
You'll be my personal drug
Until I hear the sound,
And heaven's coming down.
On and on and on and on
We make a way, we find a way.
On and on and on and on
We break away, we live with expectations, with expectations.
On and on and on and on
We make a way, we find a way.
On and on and on and on
We break away, we live with expectations, expectations.
I can hear the sound,
I still hear the sound
Beating in my brain,
Running through my veins,
No one can be safe.
Yeah, I can hear the sound,
I still hear the sound
Beating in my brain,
Running through my veins,
I'll never be the same.
And oh, willl it ever be enough?
And oh, willl it ever be enough?
The lyrics to HUNTAR's self-titled song express a sense of determination and defiance. The first verse talks about crawling and scraping one's knees until they have achieved their goal, despite not being heard before. The chorus speaks to the importance of persistence and finding a way to achieve one's dreams, despite doubt and expectations. The verse after the chorus seems to take a darker turn, with the mention of lust and personal drugs, but the determination remains that the singer will keep pushing towards their goal despite any obstacles.
Overall, the song seems to be about the struggle to achieve one's dreams and the importance of persistence even in the face of doubt and temptation. The repeated refrain of "on and on and on and on" emphasizes the idea of pushing forward no matter what.
