Lifted
Hi-Rez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He will lift you up on eagle's wings
So tell me some more lies
I breathe em in just fine
I'm thirsty for his lies
I taste him on my mind
The rest of the time he's kind of a quiet king
Why can't I hear him all the time?
I swear I'll breathe him in just fine
So tell me some more lies
I taste you all the time
I am lifted up on eagle's wings
But to tell you the truth I don't feel a thing
So tell me some more lies
I feel you near me all the time
Your flavor is like wine
I can breathe it in just fine
Your flavor tastes like wine
I fucking taste you all the time
Come inside me it's all right
I can take you in just fine
He will lift you up on eagle's wings
But honestly, you probably won't feel a thing
The lyrics to Hi-Rez feat. Kyle Dion & Shizzy VI's song Lifted talk about the idea of being lifted up by God and the desire to feel His presence more strongly. The repeated line "He will lift you up on eagle's wings" is a reference to a biblical passage in Exodus where God delivers His people from Egypt on eagle's wings. The singer of the song admits to being thirsty for lies and being able to taste them in his mind, but only hearing God when he sings. He wonders why he can't hear God all the time and asks for more lies to be told to him. The singer then shifts to talking about tasting and feeling a presence near him all the time, and compares it to the taste of wine. However, he ends the song by saying that even though he is lifted up on eagle's wings, he doesn't feel a thing.
The song can be interpreted as a criticism of those who say they believe in God but don't feel His presence or don't actively try to strengthen their relationship with Him. The repeated references to lies and tasting things in the mind could represent a lack of substance or real connection with God. The line "your flavor is like wine" could be seen as a reference to the idea of communion or drinking the blood of Christ, but it could also just be a way to describe the singer's perception of God's presence.
Overall, the lyrics to Lifted are thought-provoking and open to interpretation. They encourage listeners to reflect on their own relationship with God and what it means to truly feel His presence.
