Into the Light
J.Quest Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was a time and place we would always go
We will meet there once again
Darkness had descended all around our home
Now we begin the journey there
Walk in the path of our fathers before
Walk with the prophet who always did say
Spirits will lead us the rest of the way
Out of the darkness and into the light
Heaven beside us on this sacred night
Out of nightmare and into the dream
Returning together
The light always shines over me
Living isn't easy when you're far away from home
Seven years since we were there before
Many things have happened since we set eyes on you
Citadel in fallout from the war
City home is free again just like it was before
What will happen when we are gone ?
We hear the echoes of the time when we were young ?
Will we see darkness once again ?
The song "Into the Light" by J. Quest is an uplifting and optimistic tune that encourages listeners to persevere through the darkness in their lives and believe that there is hope for a brighter tomorrow. The lyrics speak to the idea of returning to a place that was once familiar and comforting, but that has since been shrouded in darkness and uncertainty. The opening verse reminisces about a time and place the singer used to go to, but now they must embark on a journey to get there once again. The darkness that has descended all around their home is a symbol of the trials and tribulations they have faced in their lives, but the hope of returning to this place fills them with a renewed sense of purpose.
The chorus of the song speaks to the idea of leaving the darkness behind and walking into the light. The singer believes that with the spirits and guidance of their forefathers, they will be able to find their way through the darkness and towards a brighter future. The imagery of "Heaven beside us on this sacred night" emphasizes the idea that there is a higher power watching over them and guiding them towards a better tomorrow. The bridge of the song speaks to the struggles of living away from home and the sense of displacement that can come with it. However, the singer remains hopeful that they will eventually return to a city that has been freed from the fallout of war. They wonder what will happen when they are gone and if the darkness will return, but the overall tone of the song is one of optimism and hope.
