Center of Ourselves
Rane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is it the places that we've been
Or the miracles that we've seen
In the astral blazing beauty of the night.
What inspires men in song?
Is it the women that we've held
In the center of ourselves
What inspires men to breathe?
The sprawling purple hue
Or the dawn of something new
Allows the lungs to work without reprieve.
What inspires men to wake?
It's the rays of the new sun
That embody everyone
In spite of all the evil we create
What inspires men to change
Is it the absence of the soul?
That used to have control...
The lyrics to Rane's song "Center of Ourselves" explore the question of what inspires men in various aspects of life - writing, songwriting, breathing, waking up, and changing. In the first verse, the lyrics suggest that men may find inspiration in the places they've visited or the beauty of the night sky. The second verse mentions the inspiration men may find in women, specifically those who they have held in the "center of ourselves," suggesting a deep emotional connection. However, these women may one day leave, leaving the feeling of inspiration gone. The third verse suggests that men may find inspiration in the natural world, specifically the colors of the sky and the idea of something new. The fourth verse mentions inspiration in the morning sun and the idea that all humans are connected in some way, despite the negative actions of some. Finally, the last line of the song raises the question of what inspires men to change, suggesting that perhaps the absence of a soul that once had control is the motivator.
Overall, the song suggests that inspiration can come from a variety of sources, both external and internal. The lyrics also suggest that inspiration can be fleeting and that for men, it may take a significant event or change to inspire lasting change.

I was living in the UAE when this happened, but on vacation in Qatar. It was surreal! Her children were waiting for her to leave the restroom. It was a rude awakening. Anything can happen anywhere.
