No Angels Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And he feels the pain of centuries
Tug of war, not to solve, between his heart and mind unfortunately
Shut his mouth, long ago,
He was too proud and he didn't know
It's a fear, in his soul
Makes 'em think he's king of sorrow
But there was no one to tell
So he dreamed of a little sister
She would love him, if he would fail
Brother even if you do not see me
Brother even if you feel confused
I am here to love and set you free
I'm your fighter, if you feel abused
Brother even if you hear no music
I will sing my lullaby for you
I'm your defender, I'm you're savior
I'm your sister and I'll cry for you
She's not white, she's not black
Feels uncomfortable in borderland
No one keeps her back
Insecurity is her best friend
Mother warm, father cold
And sometimes she couldn't deal with it
Always torn, not her fault
So she dreamed of a home, where she would fit
She doesn't like to walk in her own shoes
But there was no one to tell
So she dreamed of a little sister
She would love her, if she would fail
Sister even if you do not see me
Sister even if you feel confused
I am here to love and set you free
I'm you're fighter if you feel abused
Sister even if you hear no music
I will sing my lullaby for you
I'm your defender, I'm you're savior
I'm your sister and I'll cry for you
Be faithful, lean your head on mine
I give you hope and you'll be fine
Listen to my whisper
I'm your sister
I'm your sister, you're my brother
If you hold on, I'll fight harder
I'm you're mother, I'm your teacher
If you need me, I'm your preacher
The lyrics of No Angels' "Sister" describe two individuals who have experienced their fair share of struggles in life. The first verse describes a man who feels the weight of his past and the tug of war between his heart and mind. He shut his mouth long ago because of pride and fear, which leads others to view him as the "king of sorrow." Despite his struggles, he dreams of having a little sister to love him no matter what.
The second verse talks about a woman who often feels uncomfortable and insecure due to her mixed cultural identity. Her parents were warm and cold inconsistently, and she often feels torn. Like the man in the first verse, she dreams of having a little sister to love her despite her faults.
The chorus serves as a comforting message to both the man and woman that they are not alone. The singer assures them that she is their fighter, defender, and savior, and she will cry for them if they can't. She urges them to have faith and assures them that she is there to lean on during difficult times.
Overall, the lyrics of "Sister" remind us of the importance of having someone to rely on when life gets tough. Even when we feel alone, a friend or family member can be our source of comfort and strength.

I'll take care of you and teach you all I can
If you need me, I'm your preacher
If you ever need guidance or advice, I'm here for you
