My Resurrection
Ill Niño Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My soul, if I ever had a soul
Bring forth the unilateral
Condition
Rezando que siempre
(Praying that always)
Me des resoluciуn
(You give me a resolution)
Resurrect my termination
Through birth
Now that I am whole
This immaculate conception re-born
Again
I will strike back
Through my resurrection
Mi dios, yo te pido que me hables
(My god, I ask you to talk to me)
El sol me ha nublado los canales
(The sun has blinded my vision)
Tu voz, transmitiendo tus seсales
(Your voice, transmitting your signals)
La sangre de mis manos
(The blood from my hands)
Estб cayendo en tus calles
(Is dripping onto your streets)
Recompose
Resurrect my termination
Through birth
Now that I am whole
This immaculate conception re-born
Again
I will strike back
Through my resurrection
The lyrics of Ill Niño's "My Resurrection" are quite intense and speak about the singer calling upon a higher power (God) to grant him a resolution and to resurrect his termination through birth. The lyrics seem to be about the singer's desire for rebirth and second chances. He is praying for redemption and for a chance to start over. The song invokes a sense of urgency and desperation that is accented by the hard-hitting beats of the music.
The opening lines speak of the singer's uncertainty about the existence of God and whether or not he has a soul. He is seeking answers and resolution to his doubts. In the chorus, the singer is asking God to resurrect him and recompose him so that he can be made whole again. The imagery of immaculate conception suggests that the singer is being reborn through a miraculous process that is beyond his control.
The second verse speaks of the singer's remorse for his past deeds. He acknowledges the blood on his hands and the fact that he has done wrong. He is seeking forgiveness and hoping that his second chance will allow him to make up for his past mistakes. The overall tone of the song is one of hope and redemption, despite the dark imagery and harsh musical tones.
