The plan
Jillian Jensen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Was a long time ago
I met a girl who said you could fly high
Did I believe her I don't know
But I just sat back, closed my eyes, and gave it a try
Didn't believe me if I told you.
So sit back and let me show you

The places I've been
The people I've seen
Nerver thought I'd live out my dream
Here I am
Here I stand
I thank God for giving me this chance
Through the doubt and the dawn
Shine a light and warm my heart
Everytime that I fell down and got up again was Part of his Plan

Years down the road
Same old girl lost and looking for her own
Didn't know which way to go
Searching for answers tp the selfthat she thinks she knows.
Wouldn't believe me if I told you
Who you're looking for is inside you

The places I've been
The people I've seen
Nerver thought I'd live out my dream
Here I am
Here I stand
I thank God for giving me this chance
Through the doubt and the dawn
Shine a light and warm my heart
Everytime that I fell down and got up again was Part of his Plan

To go out for me
To see the girl that I told you about
She was me
She was me

The places I've been
The people I've seen
Nerver thought I'd live out my dream
Here I am
Here I stand
I thank God for giving me this chance
Through the doubt and the dawn
Shine a light and warm my heart
Everytime that I fell down and got up again was Part of his Plan





Part of his plan
Was part of his plan

Overall Meaning

The song "The Plan" by Jillian Jensen talks about chasing one's dreams, believing in oneself, and finding the courage to pursue what they want in life. The song's first verse references a girl who told the singer she could fly high, encouraging her to try it for herself. Although the singer was initially skeptical, she closed her eyes and gave it a try. The singer then tells the listener that the places she has been and the people she has seen may be hard to believe, but every fall and rise, every struggle and every triumph, was all a part of a bigger plan.


The second verse shifts its focus to a girl who, at one point in the singer's life, was lost and unsure of how to pursue her own dreams. The singer assures the listener that the answer is inside the girl and that she needs to find the courage to pursue her passion. At the end of the song, the listener realizes that the girl in the second verse is the singer herself. In "The Plan," Jensen shares her personal journey of self-discovery and growth, encouraging others to have faith in themselves and their dreams and to see that everything that happens to them is part of a divine plan.

How do you say any one of Jillian's songs is your favorite when they're all great? Love this one, love Jillian, love to see her rising above what was inflicted on her by bad people. So glad that God had a bigger plan for her, as her last line in this song says, "It's part of His plan."

Jill I truly do hope you believe that the only reason you're not getting 1,000,000 views in one day is because you're not like all of the other celebrities; utilizing satanic symbolism. You're you. And that's what I admire so much about you. I ask that you please don't be deceived by what society wants, for it'll cause you to head down the wrong path. And I know you well enough to know that you're such a strong person. You've worked extremely hard just to get where you are today. I'll be rooting for you until the very end. - Crystal @lov.at.o on twitter. I'm the one that had a small conversation about sexuality with you through DM. I love you.

KellieGiamatti

I agree with you on that. it kills me how so many people out there get noticed off sexuality and talking about their possessions gets noticed and Artist like Jill and i don't because we want our music to mean something and touchh hearts. jill is not only a amazing artist but shes a lovely person
