S.A.T.O
Ozzy Osbourne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Finally found a way of thinking
Tried the rest found the best
Stormy day won't see me sinking
I can't conceal it like I know I did before
I got to tell you now the ship is ready
Waiting on the shore
Dare to look face the test on the eve
When you set sailing
What you've learned what you've earned
Ship of joy will stop you failing
I can't conceal it like I know I did before
I got to tell you now the ship is ready
Waiting on the shore
Wind is high so am I
As the shore sinks in the distance
Dreams unfold seek the gold
Gold that's brighter than the sunlight
Sail away see the day
Dawning on a new horizon
Gold's insight shining bright
Brighter than the sun that's rising
Three thousand sails on high are straining in the wind
A raging sea below is this voyage coming to an end
The lyrics of S.A.T.O. by Ozzy Osbourne seem to be about finding inner peace and strength while also facing a test or challenge. The first verse talks about finally finding a way of thinking that brings peace of mind and avoiding sinking on a stormy day. The second verse mentions not concealing something anymore and a ship waiting on the shore. The third verse talks about facing a test and what has been learned, and how joy will prevent failure. The fourth verse mentions sailing away to seek gold that is brighter than the sunlight, seeing a new horizon, and the gold's insight shining brighter than the sun. The last lines mention 3000 sails in the wind and a raging sea, possibly representing the challenges faced during the journey but also the possibility of it coming to an end.
Overall, the song seems to encourage the listener to face challenges head-on and not to conceal things or run away from them. While there may be struggles along the way, there is also the possibility of finding immense joy and a brighter future. Additionally, the song has a prominent theme of journeying and sailing, which could represent a metaphorical journey through life and the challenges faced on that journey.

Makes you wonder how the hell you can create two albums in such short time.
Blizzard Of Oz, And this masterpiece. I always thought the songs were very
short, and done in a hurried fashion. But than you see Ozzy's former band with
Dio at the helm, and you understand exactly why this album was pushed. The
media did not help any with the magazines stating what band ruled. The Mob Rules
was one hellava album, but in the end, one was not going to pass up seeing Randy
Rhoads kicking out the incredible sound live at an Ozzy concert. Probably the
only other guitarist who could outplay EVH. I don't think one could copy the other's
style, or sound for that matter. That is how great they were, and worlds apart, but
with equal talent. In the end they both sold millions of record albums
@thedinkster5772
I think this is one of Ozzy’s most underrated songs. For me it’s my personal favorite song from the album. Randy’s playing here is so great
@andrewadams8384
