The Crow
Prolific Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not getting anywhere really,
And I mean, I was always dreamer…
But lately I’m trying embrace the simple things in life…
The crow circles around, and he circles again,
He’s going nowhere, with no cares, no purpose or end,
He cuts the wind smooth, breaks off and dives deep,
He glides free, not a thought… touches his head,
Ignorance is bliss, he knows nothing of death,
Knows no comfort or rest, he’s God’s pride and joy,
An animal that embraces life and rides the void,
enjoy the silent noise, no need to wake up from this dream,
Disconnected and selfless, a presence left up in the trees,
Life plays out beneath him, busy streets, places to go,
He looks down… down… but he’s in a place of his own,
All that remains is the crow, the mind of a new born,
The silence is too strong; it’s time to just move on,
He takes flight, soars and blends with the late night,
Pendulum strikes, with the day light….
Sunrise, he flies as he open his dreams,
Soars over roses and streams… oceans and seas,
No mind, to what’s below and beneath,
Alone on his own, he knows that he’s free...
Hook
He knows that he’s free, there’s peace some place just not here,
It's not near, it’s some place above, and maybe not real,
But, until the crow lies, body broken on the ground,
We’re all free, (all free) floating on the clouds…
Mos Def Scratch:
Maintain and keep silent...
The lyrics of Prolific's song The Crow seem to be an introspective exploration of the idea that sometimes, it feels like we are just going around in circles and not really getting anywhere in life. The metaphor of the crow, the way it circles around aimlessly, without a purpose or end, seems to reflect this feeling of purposelessness and restlessness. However, the crow is also shown to be free, flying over different terrains, feeling no fear or anxiety, embracing life and enjoying the simple pleasures of just being in the moment. The way the crow "knows nothing of death" and "embraces life and rides the void" seems to hint at a certain kind of innocent bliss, a state of being disconnected from the pressures and expectations of society.
The chorus seems to suggest that this kind of freedom and peace is not something that can be found in the physical world, but rather, it is something that exists in some other realm, perhaps, as the lyrics say, "some place above, and maybe not real." The idea is that even though we may not be able to find this peace in our everyday lives, we can still find a sense of freedom and lightness by embracing a detached, selfless attitude.
Overall, The Crow seems to be a meditation on the idea of finding peace and happiness in the midst of the confusion and chaos of modern life. It encourages listeners to embrace a simpler way of life and to find joy in the simple things, even in the midst of uncertainty and doubt.

It’s like we’re all just going in circles....
Life seems directionless
Not getting anywhere really,
There's no progress
And I mean, I was always dreamer…
I used to be an idealist
But lately I’m trying embrace the simple things in life…
I'm focusing on living in the present moment and appreciating the beauty of simplicity
The crow circles around, and he circles again,
The crow's flight has no goal, just a continuous motion
He’s going nowhere, with no cares, no purpose or end,
The crow is aimless, carefree, and has no specific objective
He cuts the wind smooth, breaks off and dives deep,
The crow maneuver through the air with ease
Keep his eyes wide and cries as the night sleeps,
The crow is alert and aware even in the midst of darkness
He glides free, not a thought… touches his head,
The crow moves effortlessly without worry or stress
Ignorance is bliss, he knows nothing of death,
The crow doesn't have to worry about the end of life
Knows no comfort or rest, he’s God’s pride and joy,
The crow doesn't seek comfort or rest, just enjoys being alive
An animal that embraces life and rides the void,
The crow enjoys the mystery and beauty of existence
Enjoy the silent noise, no need to wake up from this dream,
The crow enjoys the peacefulness of being alive
Disconnected and selfless, a presence left up in the trees,
The crow is detached from the distractions of the world and selfless
Life plays out beneath him, busy streets, places to go,
Life continues on the ground, people have their destinations to reach
He looks down… down… but he’s in a place of his own,
The crow observes the world below but maintains his own presence
All that remains is the crow, the mind of a new born,
The epicentre of existence is the crow
The silence is too strong; it’s time to just move on,
The peacefulness is all-consuming, necessitating further movement
He takes flight, soars and blends with the late night,
The crow takes to the sky and moves in harmony with the night
Pendulum strikes, with the day light….
The night gives way to day by the passage of time
Sunrise, he flies as he open his dreams,
The crow opens himself up to the possibilities of a new day
Soars over roses and streams… oceans and seas,
The crow sees the beauty in every aspect of nature
No mind, to what’s below and beneath,
The crow is not tethered by what exists beneath him
Alone on his own, he knows that he’s free...
The crow understands his freedom and independence
He knows that he’s free, there’s peace some place just not here,
The crow has realised that true peace can be found somewhere other than the physical world
It's not near, it’s some place above, and maybe not real,
The place of peace is likely a spiritual realm that may or may not exist
But, until the crow lies, body broken on the ground,
As long as the crow is alive and flying, there is hope for freedom
We’re all free, (all free) floating on the clouds…
We all have the potential for freedom if we detach from the attached world like the crow
Maintain and keep silent...
The ability to stay still and be silent is valuable for achieving mental clarity and freedom
