Grey
Jasper Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why two eyes
Is frontal or on the side
Like the Sky two lights
Is seeing really enough to believe
We were born
Out from the stardust into the storm
And will eventually reach our destiny
Return as burning energy serving the family recipe
For those especially grateful you go ahead grab a plate full
Somebody lit the fuse then walked away
Sorrys on sweet make my teeth decay
The boom left the room full of black smoke
And I’m betting no one else knows the easy way
When I saw what lies on the other side
Once aligned my satellite
Broke me down like an enzyme
Now you gotta wanna cosmic Facetime
Through spacetime, gotta lil some for your waistline
That's soul food, my purpose resurface that old news
Let go to let the light hold you
Dealing with realities circumstances
Serving dessert got the circus dancing
Until we meet in between perfect chances
Serving the word in the search for answers
Keep saying I’m insane
But I’m two stepping on a cosmic plane
I’ll be done when I’m on the way
One of these days I’ll fade to grey
We were born
Out from the stardust into the storm
And will eventually reach our destiny




Return as burning energy serving the family recipe
For those especially grateful you go ahead grab a plate full

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jasper's song "Grey" touch on themes of existence, belief, and destiny. The opening lines question the nature of perception, comparing the eyes to the sky's lights, and pondering whether seeing alone is enough to believe. The song suggests that we were born from stardust and have embarked on a journey through life's storms, eventually reaching our destined path. This path is depicted as a return to our true nature and purpose, serving the "family recipe" of burning energy.


The song also touches on the idea of causality and consequences. It mentions someone lighting a fuse and then walking away, leaving others to deal with the resulting chaos. The apology offered is described as sweet but ultimately damaging. This imagery suggests that actions and their aftermath have a lasting impact, even if the initial cause seems insignificant.


The lyrics express a longing for understanding and connection beyond the physical realm. The mention of "cosmic Facetime" and "spacetime" implies a desire to reach out and communicate on a deeper level, transcending the limitations of time and space. The song highlights the importance of letting go and allowing the light to guide us, while acknowledging the challenges and uncertainties of reality.


Overall, "Grey" paints a picture of a journey through existence, questioning and seeking meaning, while emphasizing the importance of connection, purpose, and self-discovery.

Dari semalam kutunggu
Fikir kau pulang ke pangkuanku
Kudengarkan lagu cinta
Pilihan terbaik kita
Kumainkan CD berulang
Lupakan segala ucapan
Perpisahan yang kau pinta
Benar dikau kucinta setiap detik kupuja
Kau sering perhatiku sambil belai rambutmu
Tak ingin aku lupa kenangan yang tercipta
Berikan aku diari kutulis setiap hari
Terjaga dari tidurku
Terima panggilan dari jauh
Katakan saja kau rindu
Setahun kuhilang arah
Kutempahkan tiket sehala
Malam ini kita kan bertemu
Tunggu di bawah lampu
Benar dikau kucinta setiap detik kupuja
Kau sering perhatiku sambil belai rambutmu
Tak ingin aku lupa kenangan yang tercipta
Berikan aku diari kutulis setiap hari
Na-na-na-na-na-cu-cu-cu
Tra-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat
Bercinta berkasih bagai Adam dan Hawa
Bergaduh selisih buat kita sempurna
Janganlah dipendam luahkan perasaan
Tiada benci iri hati itulah destinasi
Benar dikau kucinta setiap detik kupuja
Kau sering perhatiku sambil belai rambutmu
Tak ingin aku lupa kenangan yang tercipta
Berikan aku diari kutulis setiap hari
Setiap detik kupuja
(Kau sering perhatiku sambil belai rambutmu) uhu
Tak ingin aku lupa kenangan yang tercipta
(Berikan aku diari kutulis setiap hari) hu
Benar dikau kucinta setiap detik kupuja
Kau sering perhatiku sambil belai rambutmu
Tak ingin aku lupa kenangan yang tercipta
Berikan aku diari kutulis setiap hari (setiap hari)
Berikan aku diari kutulis setiap hari (setiap hari)
Berikan aku diari kutulis setiap hari (setiap hari)
