Up'n Away
Mr. President Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Up'n away, we need a place to hide
Gonna get up, gonna get up
Up'n away, we gonna fly so high
Gonna get up, gonna get up
I wanna get away, wanna get up and get away
I wanna get away, wanna get up and get away
I wanna get away, wanna get up and get away
I wanna get away, gonna get up, gonna get up

Souls may fly, visions blur deep as any dancetrack you've heard
Blowing storms as I tell smacking some funk on a dance realm
Blasting brains he wants in
If you may ask who it is ?
It's dancefloor knocking, my sibliminual name Sir Prophet
My quest success from the stars has torn me adn my flame apart
But there's a creation by man
That can bring us back together again

Second and minutes, minutes from hours
From days all the way up to weeks
Dying from the crime of time,
Slipping down through the hour glass as I speak
Europe and America
Thousands of miles, yes, between the two
The creation of man I can fly will bring me back to you
No more sad times, our passion will return today
Tonight I will feel you 'cause baby I can fly up and away

Finally we've been asked, to shift into a dancing climax
Heavy rain, the deepest snow, can't
Stop the sound of dance floor
Now the flavored flow has hit ya, so I say you best remember




The force that will keep us high
Up 'n away...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Up'n Away" by Mr. President talk about the need to escape and fly away to a place where one can find solace and be free. The song begins with the plea for a place to hide, followed by the declaration of the intention to get up and away, flying high above all the troubles of the world. The repetition of the lines "I wanna get away, gonna get up, gonna get away" reinforces the urge to leave everything behind and escape to a world where there are no worries. The use of the phrase "Souls may fly" suggests that this is a spiritual journey.


The second verse talks about the power of music and dance to transport us to another realm, where time is suspended and we can escape the constraints of physical reality. The lyrics speak of the "dancefloor knocking" and the "subliminal name Sir Prophet" that drives the singer forward, creating a rhythm that carries him away to a place beyond pain and suffering. The lines "my quest success from the stars has torn me and my flame apart" allude to the difficulty of achieving success while maintaining relationships, but the hope is that the creation of man will bring the singer back to his loved ones.


The final verse talks about the unifying power of dance and how it can bring people from all corners of the earth together in a shared experience of joy and freedom. The lyrics say that distance can no longer keep us apart because "the creation of man I can fly will bring me back to you". The use of the phrase "the crime of time" suggests that time is the enemy of happiness, but we can overcome it by embracing the power of music and dance.

The energy and emotion of the music will keep us flying high


Up 'n away...
We're rising higher and higher, escaping our problems through music
