Promised Land
Peasant's King Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woah woah
woah woah
Slow down
i'm on my knees
i'm
take me now
take me to the place where were young

slow down
i'm on my own
and i beg
take me now
take me to the place where we were young
take me to the place where we were done
to see your face
we walked hand in hand
into the city of a promise land
we both settled down
you ain't walking with another man
we walked hand in hand
into the city of a promise land
we both settled down
you ain't walking with another man

Woah woah
woah woah
hold me now
i'm falling down
i beg
take me now
take me to the place where were young
take me to the place where we were done
to see your face
we walked hand in hand
into the city of a promise land
we both settled down
you ain't walking with another man

We are the young in this promised land
oh
We are the young in this promised land
oh
We are the young in this promised land
oh

woahhh
take me to the place where were young
take me to the place where we were done
to see your face
woah woah
woah woah
we walked hand in hand
into the city of a promise land
we both settled down
you ain't walking with another man

woah woah
woah woah

Overall Meaning

The song “Promised Land” by Peasant’s King is a nostalgic song that talks about the desire of going back to a place where they feel young and free. It is a song about seeking comfort in the past and reflecting on how things have changed over time. The singer pleads to be taken back to the time when they were young and carefree, where they would walk hand in hand with their loved one through the city of the Promised Land. The use of the phrase “take me now” suggests a sense of urgency, as if the singer needs to go back to this place as soon as possible before time runs out.

The repetition of the phrase “we walked hand in hand” emphasizes the relationship between the singer and their loved one, and how they both shared the same desire to be in this Promised Land. The lyrics also suggest that the Promised Land is a place of stability, as the singer mentions settling down there and not having to worry about their loved one walking away with another person. The song is a reflection of how the passage of time can change people and relationships, and how going back to a place where you once were happy can provide a sense of comfort and nostalgia.
