Satellite
Satellite

I wonder how clear it must look from there to here
No obstruction, this selfish corruption
All in this atmosphere
No fear, less tears, only time to catch my breath
I fail to inhale
Your love constricts my chest
Confusion blinded me, mental and physically
And it's because of you that now I can see
So now I can run. I follow the Son and ride on to Zion
And dance this last song of freedom
But only time will tell, if it's truly for real
Can't change your mind, all I know this is what I feel
Whether I'm wrong or right, please keep my life in sight
And never take you eyes off me

As I look up to the sky today
Well I can see you looking down on me
It brings a smile to my face again
S-S-S-Satellite

Satellite
Satellite

It's truly one of a kind, like star shine, beyond night time, are you there
My eyes stare to find, just what's behind this blind notion of mine, is it
genuine
Cause sometimes, it plays tricks with my mind, some call it asinine
But it's like love or hate, now is that real or fake?
Cause it's a real thin line, but that's your choice to make
The question at hand, help me understand, is this your plan?
I think I can, can I think, then I think I can
Because I won't break (nah), and I won't shake (nah)
With lifted hands to this Man (Jah), I'll stand in faith
I'll make it through, my trust in you
Close my eyes, make a wish, kiss the sky
Hey thereâ?¦I see you

Shining Light
Shining Light
Blinding Light
Blinding Light
Shining Light
Shining Light
Blinding Light
S-S-S-Satellite

[Chorus]
Satellite
Satellite
Satellite (When I look up to the sky today, I can feel you looking down on me)
Satellite (It brings a smile to my face again, satellite)

Satellite

Guiding Light
Guiding Light
Shining Bright

Satellite (As I look up to the sky today)
Satellite
Blinding Light (satellite)
Blinding Light
Shining Light (It brings a smile to my face again)

It's truly one of a kind, like star shine, beyond night time





Are you there?

Overall Meaning

In P.O.D.'s "Satellite", the singer speaks about feeling lost and confused until they start recognizing a guiding force in their life that they believe is God. The lyrics express a sense of self-doubt and uncertainty that are overcome by faith and trust in a higher power. The satellite metaphor is used to represent that higher power, and the idea that someone is watching over us. The satellite is described as a shining, blinding, and guiding light, that brings a smile to the singer's face. The metaphor also represents the idea of distance and perspective, from which things look clearer and simpler.


The lyrics reflect the struggles that many people feel, as they search for meaning and purpose in their lives. The song expresses a desire to connect with something bigger than ourselves, and to find hope in times of darkness. The lyrics are also a testament to the power of music to bring people together and to uplift them, as the song encourages listeners to "dance this last song of freedom."
