Lifted
Naughty Boy Feat. Emelo Sandé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I’m as high as a eagle, I’m taller than the trees
And I can’t turn back, I tell my heart relax
Late at night, in the dark, I close my eyes
And suddenly everything is gone
I’ll be lifted, lifted, lifted
Reach up for the light
Devil can’t catch me tonight
I’m not afraid, and I’m not alone
Even if I’m dancing on my own
I’ll be lifted, lifted, lifted
All I hear is music, I’m losing all control
I have no excuses, can’t say I wasn’t told
If the sky turns black, I’ll tell my heart relax
Late at night, in the dark, I close my eyes
And suddenly everything is gone
I’ll be lifted, lifted, lifted
Reach up for the light
I’ll be lifted, lifted, lifted
Devil can’t catch me tonight
I’m not afraid, and I’m not alone
Even if I’m dancing on my own
I’ll be lifted, lifted, lifted
Feels like I finally finally found it
More than I, than I could have ever imagined
After all this waiting and this holding on
Suddenly everything was gone
I’ll be lifted, lifted, lifted
Reach up for the light
I’ll be lifted, lifted, lifted
Devil can’t catch me tonight
I’m not afraid, and I’m not alone
Even if I’m dancing on my own
I’ll be lifted, lifted, lifted

@@d.r.carmel BIBLE calls us all to be real, sober minded souls, who live holy lives on earth.
BIBLE calls nor expect nobody to be:
- religious of any kind
- monk
- nun
BIBLE expect us to turn our LACK OF KNOWLEDGE into KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH (HOSEA 4:6)
Each human life on earth:
- repent
- BORN AGAIN and GO AND SIN NO MORE
- be baptised in HOLY SPIRIT /THE COMFORTER
- LIVE HOLY
= soul, after earthly death in HEAVEN. Easy logic, asks no degree in anything.
Bible calls us to give out RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT, no to keep our mouth shut and support everything with blind eyes and deaf ears.
See no evil, speak no evil and hear no evil – that old saying, it belongs to masons, am I right again? The vow of silence of theirs.
SOULS, dare to read and study BIBLE (KJV) and search about FREEMASONRY.
