Back to the Known
Raghav Meattle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rays of light, coming from home
I waited for so long
I sit tight, waiting alone
But today we'll all be one
It's about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
Down the road I see
Rays of light, coming from home
I waited for so long
I sit tight, waiting alone
But today we'll all be one
It's about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
Let me fly a while
As an eagle in the sky who won't surrender its might looking down
Let me fly a while
As an eagle in the sky who won't surrender its might looking down
But today we'll all be one
It's about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
Homebound, I tend to write
Of memories, I left behind
I lie on my back all night
To retrace and draw those lines
But today we'll all be one
It's about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
Let me fly a while
As an eagle in the sky who won't surrender its might looking down
Let me fly a while
As an eagle in the sky who won't surrender its might looking down
But today we'll all be one
It's about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
In the song "Back to the Known" by Raghav Meattle, the lyrics depict a journey of self-discovery and reconnecting with one's roots. The opening lines illustrate a sense of longing and anticipation as the singer sees rays of light symbolizing home. The wait has been long, but today marks a turning point where they will finally reunite with their familiar surroundings. The phrase "Back to the known" signifies a return to a place that is familiar, comforting, and holds a strong sense of identity.
The chorus emphasizes the desire to soar high and not give up one's strength and power, much like an eagle in flight. This imagery reflects the determination to face challenges and conquer them with unwavering resolve. The repetition of "But today we'll all be one, It's about time" expresses a newfound unity and a reconnection with one's self.
The second verse introduces a reflective tone, as the singer writes about the memories they have left behind. Lying on their back all night, they attempt to retrace and draw the lines of their past, possibly in an effort to understand their journey and find their place in the world. Ultimately, the song conveys a sense of rediscovery, growth, and a rekindling of one's true essence.
Overall, "Back to the Known" carries themes of longing, self-reflection, and finding one's true identity by reconnecting with the familiar and embracing personal growth.

Down the road I see
As I journey forward, I notice a path ahead
Rays of light, coming from home
Beams of light emanating from the place I belong
I waited for so long
I have been patient for a considerable amount of time
I sit tight, waiting alone
I remain still, anticipating without companionship
But today we'll all be one
However, today we will unite as a collective
It's about time
It is high time, long overdue
Since today I trace my world
Because today, I rediscover and map out my own reality
Back to the known
Returning to the familiar and comfortable
Let me fly a while
Allow me to soar freely for a brief period
As an eagle in the sky who won't surrender its might looking down
Like a mighty eagle refusing to yield, observing everything from above
Homebound, I tend to write
Heading towards home, I have a tendency to express myself through writing
Of memories, I left behind
Of the memories I have left in the past
I lie on my back all night
During the night, I lie on my back in contemplation
To retrace and draw those lines
To revisit and sketch the paths I have taken
Back to the known
Returning to the familiar and comfortable
Let me fly a while
Allow me to soar freely for a brief period
As an eagle in the sky who won't surrender its might looking down
Like a mighty eagle refusing to yield, observing everything from above
But today we'll all be one
However, today we will unite as a collective
It's about time
It is high time, long overdue
Since today I trace my world
Because today, I rediscover and map out my own reality
Back to the known
Returning to the familiar and comfortable

Down the road I see
Rays of light coming from home
I’ve waited for so long
I sit tired waiting alone
But today we’ll all be one
It’s about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
Let me fly a while
As an eagle in the sky
Who won’t surrender its might looking down
But today we’ll all be one
It’s about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
Long nights I tend to write
Of memories I left behind
I lie on my back all night
To retrace and draw those lines
But today we’ll all be one
It’s about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
Let me fly a while
As an eagle in the sky
Who won’t surrender its might looking down
But today we’ll all be one
It’s about time
Since today I trace my world
Back to the known
