Yes
Jai Lyrics

omg haha

Chorus

Sitting here, don't really understand how
Someone so quote unquote dedicated could be so stressed out
Head hurting, heart beating
Home life (I never see it)
I know this is not the way that You designed for me to be
If I'm really doing everything for Your purpose
I've gotta stop and put my hands up in submission to Your will

Chorus:
I surrender to Your heart
I surrender to Your love for me
Not my will (NO) only Yours
I say Yes, I wanna say Yes

V2:
No more chains, liberty
Since I laid down
All things that set themselves higher than what you have planned out for me
I chose to live for You, my mind has been renewed
Incarcerate my heart now never release me don't let go





Chorus

Overall Meaning

In Jai's song "Yes", the artist talks about feeling stressed out despite being dedicated to a certain cause. The chorus highlights this feeling of being lost and unsure of what's expected of them. The lyrics convey a sense of surrender to a higher power and a willingness to put one's faith in that power instead of fighting against it. The singer states that they know this is not the way they were designed to be and that they must stop fighting against their purpose.


Throughout the song, there is an emphasis on surrendering to a divine will and accepting one's place in the world. Jai describes this as an act of liberation, as they no longer feel weighed down by the burdens of trying to be something they're not. Instead, they can be free and open to the possibilities that come with accepting a life guided by a higher power.


Overall, "Yes" is a powerful message about the importance of surrendering to a greater force in order to find peace and fulfillment in life. The lyrics offer reassurance that it's okay to let go and trust in something greater than ourselves.
