Black Ice
M.H.K Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cuz were dancin by the pale moon light
I wake up in the morning and I get delirious
Cuz of something that I did last night
But then the neighbor came on to me
She said that life is more than we see
You've got to be the change that should be
So don't die, just try...
Open your gun in two
And turn in up the moon
I play it cool till the night is over
When are you comin back
To save this heart of mine
Time to take it slow
Black ice, white snow
What if the truth is we don't really know
If so then life is a mystery
This could be then end of all history
But wait the sun rises in the east
And the world still spins three hundred and sixty degrees on its axis
This isn't the galactic practice
Of rhymin, cruises no beginning of ending of timing
Reminds like the sun to take your back off the wall
People in the party in the light game show
Once again be dummin down the e's off the globe
Once a definition of this thing called black
I had a premonition eighteen way back
That black is the color of the universe from whence we came
I wonder if my soul is on ice again
Who put the light song open your gun in two
And turn in up the moon
I play it cool till the night is over
When are you comin back
To save this heart of mine

Line by Line Meaning
Sometimes the way we look at life can be too serious
Life can be taken too seriously at times
Cuz were dancin by the pale moon light
We are enjoying ourselves at night
I wake up in the morning and I get delirious
I feel disorientated when I wake up in the morning
Cuz of something that I did last night
Due to my actions the previous night
But then the neighbor came on to me
My neighbor had some advice for me
She said that life is more than we see
Life has more meaning than what we can commonly perceive
You've got to be the change that should be
It is up to us to make the necessary change
So don't die, just try...
Don't give up, keep trying
Were just some fool with the light song
We are foolish and carefree
Open your gun in two
Unlock your potential
And turn in up the moon
Enjoy the night
I play it cool till the night is over
I remain calm until the night is over
When are you comin back
When will you return
To save this heart of mine
To protect my feelings and emotions
Time to take it slow
Slow down and take your time
Black ice, white snow
An analogy for the mysteriousness of life
What if the truth is we don't really know
What if we do not truly understand the truth
If so then life is a mystery
If that is the case, life is a mystery
This could be then end of all history
This could mark the end of everything
But wait the sun rises in the east
But the world continues to function
And the world still spins three hundred and sixty degrees on its axis
The world continues to rotate
This isn't the galactic practice
This is not how things usually work in the galaxy
Of rhymin, cruises no beginning of ending of timing
A reference to the structure of music and its timeless nature
Reminds like the sun to take your back off the wall
Encouragement to come out of your shell and be more active
People in the party in the light game show
People are caught up in the superficial aspects of life
Once again be dummin down the e's off the globe
The world is becoming more ignorant
Once a definition of this thing called black
The definition of black was once clear
I had a premonition eighteen way back
I had a feeling a long time ago
That black is the color of the universe from whence we came
Black represents the origin of the universe
I wonder if my soul is on ice again
I am unsure if my soul is stagnant
Who put the light song open your gun in two
Who inspired us to unlock our potential
And turn in up the moon
To enjoy the night to its fullest
I play it cool till the night is over
I will remain calm until the night ends
When are you comin back
When will you return
To save this heart of mine
To protect my feelings and emotions
