Satellite
Julz West Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I see you watching over me
How can you tell when all the world's asleep
I don't wanna hide
Yeah I'm looking out and I
See with my own mind
What is real
See you in the dark
Falling in time
Out of sight
Out of mind
Far from your home
Tell me now you realise you're not alone
One foot on the ground we know
This ain't paradise
Do do do doo
Do do do do doo
Do do do do do do doo
Hey satellite (yeah)
The view is different way out there
The distance and the blue
Make me see it clear
And I know
As we are moving far apart
It is you
That is drifting in the dark
Falling in time
Out of sight
Out of mind
Far from your home
Tell me now you realise you're not alone
One foot on the ground we know
This ain't paradise
Do do do doo
Do do do do doo
Do do do do ooh
When it's said and done
What will we become
Hold on
Hold on to this
When your time is up
Will it be enough to slow this down
Falling in time (falling in time)
Out of sight
Out of mind (out of mind)
Far from your home (your home)
Tell me now you realise you're not alone (youβre not alone)
One foot on the ground we know
This ain't paradise
Do do do doo
Do do do do doo
Do do do do, do do doo
This ainβt paradise
Do do do doo
Do do do do doo
Do do do do, ooh
The lyrics of "Satellite" by Julz West seem to convey a sense of introspection and self-awareness in relation to the world and one's place in it. The singer addresses a satellite, symbolizing a distant observer, and acknowledges its watchfulness over them even in the moments when the rest of the world is asleep. It suggests a kind of symbiotic connection between the singer and the satellite, as if they share a unique understanding of reality.
The singer expresses a desire to be seen and understood, stating that they are looking out and seeing the truth with their own mind. This implies a yearning for authenticity and a rejection of hiding or pretense. However, despite being aware of the satellite's presence, they also mention seeing it in the dark, which suggests a certain enigmatic quality or mystery surrounding it.
The chorus reinforces a theme of distance and isolation, with the notion of falling in time and being out of sight and out of mind. There is a recognition that the world, referred to as "paradise," can be a lonely and unfulfilling place. The lyrics also touch upon the realization that one's sense of home and belonging may not necessarily align with the physical location or surroundings.
In the final verse, there is contemplation of the future and what will become of the connection with the satellite. The plea to "hold on" suggests a desire to preserve the sense of understanding and awareness symbolized by the satellite, even as time progresses. The closing line, "This ain't paradise," seems to challenge the idealized notions of perfection and utopia, emphasizing the importance of embracing reality and finding meaning within it.
Overall, "Satellite" appears to be a reflective and thought-provoking song that explores themes of identity, perception, and the search for authenticity in an imperfect world.

Hey satellite
Greetings to the satellite
I see you watching over me
I notice your surveillance on me
How can you tell when all the world's asleep
How do you determine this while the rest of the world is unaware
I don't wanna hide
I don't want to conceal myself
Yeah I'm looking out and I
Indeed, I am observing my surroundings and
See with my own mind
Perceive using my own thoughts
What is real
The truth of what exists
And I
Additionally, I am
See you in the dark
Able to identify you in the absence of light
Falling in time
Descending in synchronization
Out of sight
No longer visible
Out of mind
Forgotten
Far from your home
Distant from your place of origin
Tell me now you realise you're not alone
Inform me if you now understand that you have companionship
One foot on the ground we know
We comprehend that one foot remains grounded
This ain't paradise
This is not a perfect place
Do do do doo
Vocal melody
Do do do do doo
Vocal melody
Do do do do do do doo

The view is different way out there
The perspective is distinct in that distant location
The distance and the blue
The vastness and the color blue
Make me see it clear
Enhance my vision and make it more evident
And I know
I am certain that
As we are moving far apart
While we are physically separating
It is you
It is specifically you
That is drifting in the dark
That is aimlessly floating in the absence of light
When it's said and done
When everything is completed
What will we become
What will we transform into
Hold on
Maintain your grip
Hold on to this
Retain possession of this
When your time is up
When your allocated time has ended
Will it be enough to slow this down
Will it sufficiently decelerate this process
Far from your home
Distant from your place of origin
Tell me now you realise you're not alone
Inform me if you now understand that you have companionship
One foot on the ground we know
We comprehend that one foot remains grounded
This ain't paradise
This is not a perfect place
Do do do doo
Vocal melody
Do do do do doo
Vocal melody
Do do do do, do do doo
Vocal melody
This ainβt paradise
This is not a perfect place
Do do do doo

Do do do do doo

Do do do do, ooh
