Riders
President T Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pray your God to be
To see how beautiful you are again
This sound's from nothing
That makes you feel like home
Come undone
The secret plan where you wanna be mine
Stay strong be a sailor
Your dream is nothing but a sail
How long are you, strangers
Love is on the other way
See the waves come and go
It's coming to the other time
We saw you'd never
Never let you go
Never let you go
Trace my footsteps
Over the moon meet Goddess
Tell her I'm back I'm alright
See how we're rejoicing tonight
Stay strong be a sailor
Your dream is nothing but a sail
How long are you, strangers
Love is on the other way
See the waves come and go
It's coming to the other time
We saw you'd never
Never let you
Trace my footsteps
Waves come and go like Riders
With rhyme, it's so easy to find
Perfect illusion will never die
The song "Riders" by President T explores themes of self-realization, finding one's purpose, and the transient nature of love.
The lyrics suggest that the singer is seeking guidance from a higher power, praying to God to help them rediscover their own beauty. They feel a sense of emptiness, as if they are starting from nothing, but they find solace in a sound that makes them feel at home. This can be interpreted as a longing for a sense of belonging and inner peace.
The song continues with the mention of a secret plan, implying a desire for a deeper connection with someone. The singer wants this person to be theirs, indicating a longing for a romantic relationship. However, the line "The secret plan is all of your kind" can also be interpreted as a plea for understanding and acceptance from a particular group or community.
The chorus encourages the listener to stay strong and persevere like a sailor, suggesting that their dreams are like a sail guiding them forward. They are advised to not be deterred by the challenges they face as strangers in a world that may not fully understand or appreciate their unique qualities. Love is presented as something that will come their way eventually, and they are encouraged to keep faith in its arrival.
The lyrics then mention waves, symbolizing the ups and downs of life and emotions. The waves come and go, representing the ever-changing nature of circumstances. The singer acknowledges that even though they expected certain things to happen differently, they will never let go of their dreams and aspirations.
In the final stanza, the singer asks the listener to trace their footsteps over the moon, potentially symbolizing a journey of self-discovery and growth. They long to meet with a Goddess figure, possibly representing the embodiment of wisdom and guidance. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the importance of staying strong and sailing through life's challenges. The mention of rejoicing suggests that despite the hardships, there is hope for a brighter future.
The last line, "Perfect illusion will never die," implies that even though the world may present us with illusions of perfection, true authenticity and self-realization will withstand the test of time. It suggests that one should not be swayed by superficial facades but instead pursue their true passions and dreams.
Overall, "Riders" speaks to the search for meaning, understanding, and love in a world filled with uncertainty and transience. The lyrics encourage perseverance, self-discovery, and staying true to oneself amid life's challenges.
