The Shepherd
Planet P Project Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Waiting at the checkout stand
'bout a very special boy
And the thousands in his hands
Is this just the latest fashion
Or is there something there for me
Think I'll see
Think I'll see
And I've had that dream again
I been born again so often
But this time I'm sure it's him
Could this be the second coming
Of the one who makes men free
Think I'll see
Think I'll see
And they say he wears a halo
If you get up close to him
And they say he'll lead us all out of the
Danger that we're in
And they say he is the shepherd
And we all should follow him
Is that him
The lyrics of Planet P Project's song "The Shepherd" convey the interest of the singer in a story about a special boy that he has seen in a paper while waiting at a checkout stand. The boy apparently has thousands of dollars in his hands, which piques the singer's curiosity about his significance. The singer then wonders whether this is just a fleeting fashion or whether there is something meaningful in the boy's actions that he can learn from. The singer also mentions that he has had a dream about this boy and suggests that this may be the second coming of the one who makes men free.
As the song progresses, the singer continues to ponder the boy's significance and hears more about his supposed abilities. They say he wears a halo and is capable of leading people out of danger. The boy is referred to as "the Shepherd," and the suggestion is that people should follow him. The singer is left wondering whether the boy he has read about is indeed the one that people are talking about and whether he should follow him too.
The lyrics of this song reflect the theme of searching for meaning and purpose in life. The singer is intrigued by the boy he has read about because he believes that he may have found a way to break free from the constraints of his everyday existence. The concept of the second coming of someone who can free people from their struggles is a powerful one and adds a spiritual dimension to the song.

Saw a story in the paper
I came across a story in the newspaper
Waiting at the checkout stand
I was standing in line at the cash register
'bout a very special boy
The story was about a unique boy
And the thousands in his hands
The boy had thousands of something in his possession
Is this just the latest fashion
I question whether the story is just a current trend or not
Or is there something there for me
I wonder if there's something significant in the story for me personally
Think I'll see
I'll investigate to find out for myself
I read it in the tea leaves
I saw the story's prophecy through my spiritual beliefs
And I've had that dream again
I keep having a recurring dream about the boy in the story
I been born again so often
I've gone through so many changes in my life
But this time I'm sure it's him
But this time, I am confident that I've found who I've been looking for
Could this be the second coming
It's possible that this person could be a messianic figure
Of the one who makes men free
The messiah can set humanity free
Think I'll see
I'll investigate to find out for myself
And they say he wears a halo
Rumors are spreading that he wears a halo
If you get up close to him
If I get a chance to meet him in person
And they say he'll lead us all out of the
People believe that he will safely guide humanity away from the danger it faces
Danger that we're in
The danger threatens everyone's safety
And they say he is the shepherd
People believe that he is a shepherd-like figure who will guide them through tough times
And we all should follow him
People should look up to the boy as an example and aspire to be like him
Is that him
I wonder if the boy from the story is the messiah that I'm seeking
