Non Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our time has come
To regroup
It's time to rise
We won't hold back
Get ready to brace yourself
We're coming back again
We all rise together
We're gonna bring them down
Raise your voices
The ground will shake and tremble
They will fear, they will fear, they will fear
Our shields and weapons
We are the beacons towards the sky
That will bring us back together
We will stand to our grounds
We will rise together
And I don't think it's over
We're will rise one more time
Let's lighten up this world
They will be blinded by our torches
Do not fear, do not hesitate
We're giving them what we've got
We will rise one more time
We will rise, we will show no mercy
We will rise one last time
We will rise, there's no turning back now
Owwwhhhh yeah
They will fear us
We are the beacons towards the sky
That will bring us back together
We will stand to our grounds
We will rise together
And I don't think it's over
We're will rise
We've been waiting for a chance like this
Get ready to rise from the ground
They will fear our shields and weapons
They will fear us rise together
We will rise together
The lyrics to Non's song "Rise" are about regrouping, rising up, and fighting back against whatever it is that has caused the need for this unification. The song suggests that it's time to put aside any reservations and come together as a united force to face a common enemy. Whether the enemy is a person, a system, or an idea is up to interpretation. What is clear is that the group believes that they are stronger together than apart and that they are willing to fight for their cause.
The song starts with a call to action, urging everyone to not hold back and come together: "Now, don't hold back now. Our time has come. To regroup, it's time to rise." The chorus reinforces this idea of unity, that they will rise together as one and that they will bring down their opponent. The second verse continues this theme, with lyrics that speak to their determination and strength: "Let's lighten up this world. They will be blinded by our torches. Do not fear, do not hesitate. We're giving them what we've got." The bridge of the song is particularly powerful, where the group declares that they will rise one more time, and that there's no turning back now.
Overall, the song is an anthem for anyone who has faced adversity and wants to fight back. It's a call for unity and strength, for not giving up and standing their ground. It's a song about hope and determination, and the power that comes from rising up together.
