In Search Of Sun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You think you know the truth in what you do
Without the proof, so why you shakin' all the time
Oh I got to see it take it, just say it.
I'll make it electric and you won't forget it
I will turn back for you to see the beer end of the fight
Can you hold on?
Can you hold on?
Will you hold on?
I see you lying there and that you
Scared but I know you can't control your tongue
I think you know the truth, I'm telling you,
Ain't nothing new, so let me shake you through the light
So don't fake it, just say it.
I'll make it electric and you won't forget it
I will turn back for you to see the beer end of the fight
Can you hold on?
Will you hold on?
Can you hold on?
Will you hold on?
Can you hold on (Mother!)
Will you hold on (Motherfunk!)
Can you hold on (Mother!)
Will you hold on (Motherfunk!)
Can you hold on (Mother!)
Will you hold on (Motherfunk!)
Can you hold on (Mother!)
Will you hold on (Motherfunk!)
Motherfunk!
Motherfunk!
Motherfunk!
Motherfunk!
The lyrics to "Motherfunk" by In Search of Sun appear to be about someone who is struggling to face the truth and overcome their fears. The opening lines "I see a lie awaking that you scared looking for the will to overcome" suggest that this person is aware that they are not being truthful with themselves or others and that they are afraid of what will happen if they confront their fears. The repeated question "Can you hold on?/ Will you hold on?" implies that the singer is urging the person to keep going and not give up on their journey towards self-discovery and personal growth.
The lines "I'll make it electric and you won't forget it/I will turn back for you to see the beer end of the fight" suggest that the singer is offering their support and encouragement to the person, and that they are determined to help them succeed. The use of the word "electric" here suggests that this journey towards self-acceptance and bravery will be exhilarating and transformative, while the phrase "the beer end of the fight" (which is likely meant to be "the bitter end of the fight") implies that the struggle may be difficult, but that the end result will be worth it.
The repeated use of the word "Motherfunk" throughout the song may simply be a way to add emphasis and energy to the lyrics, or it may have a more specific meaning related to the theme of the song itself.
