It's You
Lovkn Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I lie awake
And pray for grace
Come and calm my mind
It's been a day
One of those days
Just want to leave it all behind

I try, with all my might

And I end up nowhere
Come to me, tonight
I need a breath of Your air

It's You who's giving me joy again
It's You who's giving me peace within
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You
It's You who's giving me hope again
It's You tearing off my burden
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You

Make me strong
As I sing Your song
I'll sing it loud and unashamed
You know me, God
You know me well
Move me on from this place

I try, with all my might
And I end up nowhere
Come to me, tonight
I need a breath of Your air

It's You who's giving me joy again
It's You who's giving me peace within
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You

It's You who's giving me hope again
It's You tearing off my burdens
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You

It's You who's giving me joy again
It's You who's giving me peace within
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You

It's You who's giving me hope again
It's You tearing off my burdens
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You

Yes, it's You
Oh, it's You
Yes, it's You

It's You who's giving me joy again
It's You who's giving me peace within
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You who's giving me joy again
It's You who's giving me peace within
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You

And it's You who's giving me hope again
It's You who is taking my burdens
It's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You who's gonna carry me through
Oh, it's You

Yes, it's You
Oh, it's You

Yes, it's You
It's You

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "It's You" by Lovkn convey a sense of vulnerability and a plea for divine intervention. The opening verse paints a picture of a restless mind seeking solace from the trials of the day. The chorus acts as a reassuring anthem that acknowledges the only source of strength and the hope is the divine. The chorus repeats the same message in a loop, affirming the singer's newfound comfort with this truth.

The second verse is more confrontational, urging God to "make me strong" and "move me on from this place". The singer recognizes that they cannot navigate their situation without divine intervention but also understands that they must actively participate in their healing process. The chorus then takes up its previous refrain, speaking of the divine taking away the singer's burdens and carrying them through.

The overall message of the lyrics seems to be one of surrendering to the will of a higher power, recognizing the limitations of the self and the ultimate source of strength, which is a universal and timeless divine force. The soft and emotive qualities of the song's production add to this sense of vulnerability and reliance on something bigger than oneself.

I am unable to sleep despite my tiredness

And pray for grace
I ask for divine help and mercy
