Music Is My Desire
Pablo Moses Lyrics

, music has been a driving force in my heart and soul. The lyrics in Pablo Moses's song, "Music Is My Desire," resonate deeply with me because they speak to the universal human desire to be whole, fulfilled, and in service to something higher than oneself. The opening lines of the song suggest that the desire for authenticity and humility is the first step towards fulfilling one's purpose in life. To want to lay down one's pride signifies a willingness to surrender to a greater calling, to be used by a higher power for a greater purpose.

The refrain, "This is my desire, this is my return, this is my desire to be used by you," sums up the overarching message of the song. It's an affirmation of the singer's deepest desires, to be aligned with a purpose greater than him/herself and to be of service to that purpose. The repeated use of the phrase "lay it all down before the King" suggests a willingness to surrender to a higher power, to lay aside all one's fears, doubts, and insecurities and to trust in the divine process of life.

In the second verse, the desire for purification and freedom is expressed, indicating a recognition that true happiness and freedom come only through a release of all the unnecessary baggage that weighs us down. The refrain is repeated, reinforcing the singer's resolve to live a life of purpose, to do the will of a higher power, and to be used by that power for the greater good.
