Rebel
Marya Roxx Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But it doesn't wash the soul
Rays cross my way
But nor the storm will makes me stay
Rebel, as the wind
Nothing reaches me
And now I can see
How was enough
At least for me
Sometimes I look the light
And sometimes I cry
Why is so hard to see?
He, used to follow
Here, he doesn't have a name
Lives with the fear of never come back
There is no wishes in these stars
Here, he have fear behind the walls
Now, he's totally alone again
You know, he try, he fight
But the answer won't come without sacrifice
Rebel and Free
Like an angel in fury (he lost his faith)
Alone again
He tries to reach
He seems to fade
Must be the end
Rebel and Free
Like an angel in fury (he lost his faith)
Why he couldn't stay
He, used to follow
Here, he doesn't have a name
Lives with the fear of never come back
There is no wishes in those stars
Just fly for the horizon
To believe again
Can't you find your heart?
Just one reason to go
And many others to stay
Clarified by the sun
May him stay
Just fly for the horizon
To believe again
Can't you find your heart?
Just one reason to go
And many others to stay
Speeches of any one
I could believe in anything
My wishes will fade away
And I will start again
My way become in a curse
But I won't give up
My heart will stay
The lyrics to Marya Roxx's song "Rebel" are about a person who is determined to stay true to themselves and not be held back by the storms or pressures of life. The rain may wet their face, but it does not wash their soul. They are like the wind, free and unstoppable. They may cry and find it hard to see at times, but they never lose hope. The lyrics also speak of someone who used to follow someone or something, but now they are alone and searching for their own path. They have lost their faith, but they are still fighting and trying to believe again.
Throughout the song, the lyrics repeat the lines "Rebel and free, like an angel in fury (he lost his faith)" which could be interpreted as a reference to the person's inner rebellious spirit, and their struggles to maintain it despite losing their faith. The lyrics also mention the person being alone and feeling like they are fading away, but they are determined to keep going and not give up. They end with the lines "My way become in a curse, but I won't give up, my heart will stay", which implies that while the person's journey may be challenging, they will not be deterred by the difficulties they encounter.
Overall, "Rebel" is a song about staying true to oneself and not giving up in the face of challenges. It is about fighting for what you believe in and being determined to find your own way, even when it may seem like everything is working against you.
