Onto Something
Leonard Luka Lyrics

Onto Something
Onto Something

And it feels like
We're onto something
And it feels like
We're onto something
And it feels like
We're onto something
And it feels like
We're onto something

I can't remember
The dreams that I had before
Just keep moving forward
Waking up, try to build on remains of hope
Creating an orchard

Put a little faith in our children
Leave your fears in the past
We don't know where we're going
Just tryin' to make it last

Elevated by the love to create that goes on and on
Shooting beams from
Our minds and our bodies that
Makes the world go round

And it feels like we're onto something
And it feels like we're onto something
Onto something
Onto something

Trying to march to the beat of my drum
But it feels
Like a path being taken
Old folks are mourning the loss of their world
We are in the making

Put a little faith in our children
Lay to your fear to rest
We're in the age of the water
Stilling the waves of the past

And it feels like we're onto something
And it feels like we're onto something
And it feels like we're onto something
On and on
On and on
And it feels like we're onto something
Feelin' like we're onto something
Feelin' like we're onto something

Onto something real
Yes we're onto something real
Yes we're onto something real




Yes we're onto something real
Yes we're onto something real

Overall Meaning

The repetition of the phrase "And it feels like we're onto something" emphasizes the singer's belief that they are onto something significant and meaningful in their lives. This feeling is reinforced by the line "Elevated by the love to create that goes on and on," suggesting that their creative endeavors are fueling their sense of purpose.


The second verse reflects on the past and the singer's pursuit of their dreams. They admit to not being able to remember their previous dreams, but they are determined to keep moving forward and building on the remains of hope. The metaphor of "creating an orchard" symbolizes their efforts to cultivate and grow something meaningful in their lives.


The song also touches on generational differences and the transition from one era to another. The line "Trying to march to the beat of my drum, but it feels like a path being taken" suggests that the singer is forging their own path, but they are aware of the older generation mourning the loss of their world. Despite this, the singer urges others to have faith in the younger generation and lay their fears to rest.
