Life
Maejor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got out of bed at all
Morning rain falls on my window
I can't see at all
Even if I could, it would all be grey
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it′s not so bad
Not so bad at all
I wrote this verse in Paris where it became apparent
A lesson from my parents, a blessing, I should share it
Appreciate what you got, try not to wait 'til it's gone
Somehow it seems we forgot it won′t be this way for long
When I was chasin′ a dream, it was just makin' me cold
But as I laid while it seems, that′s not the way I should go
The more I'm learnin′ myself, the less I'm lovin′ control
The less I'm searchin' for help, the more I′m trustin′ my soul
There's some days I wonder why
Got out of bed at all
Morning rain falls on my window
I can′t see at all
Even if I could, it would all be grey
But your picture's on my wall
It reminds me that it′s not so bad
Not so bad at all
Un día entendí que la vida está para vivirla más
Si no estoy para mí, ¿cómo voy a estar para los demás?
Que tengo mucho amor aquí adentro
Que la clave es estar en el momento
Y vivir sin expectativas, atender las adversidades
Quedarte donde te rías, visitar muchos lugares
Que tengo mucho amor aquí adentro
Sentirme uno mismo con el viento
There's some days I wonder why
Got out of bed at all
Morning rain falls on my window
I can′t see at all
Even if I could, it would all be grey
But your picture's on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad
Not so bad at all
Tu poses les questions, tu as les réponses
Je parie que tu as encore raison
Ça pue l′embrouille à la maison
Y a tout qui passe comme les saisons
J′ai réparé ton cœur de mes mains
Il avait besoin d'une révision
Faut qu′on prenne une décision
Avant que vienne la trahison, nan, nan
Je sors tirer une taffe, je suis sous la véranda
Tu sais pourquoi je taffe, pour la kichta sous l'matelas
T′inquiète pas, ma belle, je gère
J'vais régler les problèmes (Capo, Capo, Capo, Capo, Capo)
Open your eyes, there you will find
Reasons to smile, all happening now
Open your mind, there you will find
There is no time, all we got is now
There′s some days I wonder why
Got out of bed at all
Morning rain falls on my window
I can't see at all
Even if I could, it would all be grey
But your picture's on my wall
It reminds me that it′s not so bad
Not so bad at all
J′garde les idées claires dans le noir
J'ai les xénons dans le brouillard
J′m'évaderai de ma propre prison
Même si je suis le seul à y croire
J′m'apitoierai pas sur mon sort
J′le jure sur ma vie
Apprends à me connaître pour le voir
J'reste calme, babe
Ouais, je reste calme
J'resterai près de toi (yeah)
When you′re lost (when you′re lost) you'll be free (you′ll be free)
Love is blind (love is blind)
You will see (you will see)
Keep the faith (keep the faith) just believe (just believe)
The lyrics to Maejor's song "Life" is an ode to the beauty of life itself. The opening lines set the tone of the song as it talks about those times when the morning seems bleak, and everything seems grey. However, the picture on the wall reminds him that it is not so bad and the day is worth getting out of bed for. It's a reminder that even if life seems challenging and everything seems hopeless, there is always something worth waking up for. He wrote the opening verse when he was in Paris while reflecting on the teachings of his parents - to appreciate what you have and not take things for granted.
The song pivots on the theme of living life and enjoying the present moment. The lyrics talk about how chasing a dream can feel lonely and isolating, but there is a realization that the way forward is to trust oneself even in the tumultuous moments. The song emphasizes the importance of living life without expectations and being present in a moment. The chorus repeats the line, "It's not so bad at all," as a reminder that life is worth living.
The song's message transcends culture and language barriers as different parts of the song are in Spanish and French. The Spanish lines emphasize that life is to be lived wholeheartedly and self-love is integral to being able to love others. The French lines talk about dealing with problems as they come and not letting them fester by taking action. Altogether, "Life" encourages listeners to keep an open mind, heart, and soul to appreciate the moments that make life worth living.
