Weight of the World
JVNA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In my body and my soul
And the sky, it looks so ominous
And as time comes to a halt
Silence starts to overflow
My cries are inconspicuous
Is this the price I'm paying for my past mistakes?
This is my redemption song
I need you more than ever right now
Can you hear me now?
Cause we're going to shout it loud
Even if our words seem meaningless
It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world
I wish that someway, somehow
That I could save every one of us
But the truth is that I'm only one girl
Maybe if I keep believing my dreams will come to life
Come to life...
After all the laughter fades
Signs of life all washed away
I can still, still feel a gentle breeze
No matter how hard I pray
Signs of warning still remain
And life has become my enemy
Tell me God, are you punishing me?
Is this the price I'm paying for my past mistakes?
This is my redemption song
I need you more than ever right now
Can you hear me now?
Cause we're going to shout it loud
Even if our words seem meaningless
It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world
I wish that someway, somehow
That I could save every one of us
But the truth is that I'm only one girl
Maybe if I keep believing my dreams will come to life
Come to life...
Cause we're going to shout it loud
Even if our words seem meaningless
It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world
I wish that someway, somehow
That I could save every one of us
But the truth is that I'm only one girl
Still, we're going to shout it loud
Even if our words seem meaningless
It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world
I hope that someway, somehow
That I could save every one of us
But the truth is that I'm only one girl
Maybe if I keep believing my dreams will come to life
Come to life...
The lyrics to JVNA's "Weight of the World" speak to the feelings of hopelessness and despair that can come with the weight of responsibility and the struggle to make a positive impact in the world. The opening lines express the artist's sense of being overwhelmed and defeated, with a foreboding sky setting the mood. Through the song, the lyrics reflect on the idea of redemption and of turning to a higher power for help and guidance.
The repeated lines "cause we're going to shout it loud, even if our words seem meaningless, it's like I'm carrying the weight of the world" convey the importance of perseverance and the need to keep speaking out and trying, even when it feels like there is no hope. The idea that one person cannot save everyone is also present, but the song encourages the idea that every individual can still make a difference in their own way, and that dreams can come true through belief and determination.
Overall, "Weight of the World" is a powerful song that speaks to the struggles and fears that many people face in their own lives. It expresses the need for hope and redemption, and encourages listeners to keep fighting for what they believe in, no matter how heavy the burden may feel.

Come to life...
My dreams will come to life and bring me the hope and relief that I desperately need
