Stronger
Raveena Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Holy as the sunrise
Clear as the water
I was so naive

To think a man could be stronger than me
I'm stronger
Stronger, stronger
You make me love everybody
But me, but me, but me
You make me hurt everybody
Everybody

Almost sacrificial how I'm laying
Here trembling
A call, a call
From heaven

Meant to be a mother and a lover
But you wouldn't let me
Let me
Oh lord

I know you love to see me broken
You live to see me confused on my knees

Don't talk too soon
I ain't dead yet, but I am
Holy as the sunrise
Clear as the water
I was so naive

To think a man could be stronger than me
I'm stronger, stronger, stronger
Stronger, stronger, stronger

Take care of me
Take care of me
Take care of me
Take care of me
Take care

Sun come up
And take me
Sun come up
Aah
Sun come up




And take me
Sun come up

Overall Meaning

In Raveena's song "Stronger," the singer paints a picture of a woman who has been manipulated and abused by her partner. She starts off by describing herself as holy and clear, possibly referencing her purity and innocence before she got involved with this man. Raveena then acknowledges her naivete in thinking that a man could be stronger than her. She bravely declares that she is stronger now despite everything she has been through.


The next few lines indicate that Raveena's partner makes her love everyone around her except herself. It seems like he has become her sole focus, and she has lost sight of her own self-worth. He also causes her to hurt others, leading to a cycle of pain and abuse. She describes herself as almost sacrificial, suggesting that she has given everything she had to this relationship but still feels like it's not enough.


Raveena then has a moment of clarity in which she realizes that she is meant to be both a mother and a lover, but her partner wouldn't let her. She addresses the person directly with an "Oh Lord," indicating that she may have felt like her partner controlled her as if he was a higher power. She knows that he loves seeing her broken and confused, but she asserts that she is not defeated yet. The song ends with Raveena asking the sun to come up and take her away, possibly symbolizing a desire to leave this toxic relationship behind.

"I was so naive to think a man could be stronger than me"
Queen of reclaiming the strenght of femininity & womanhood!

@danmsmith21

that's a little toxic towards men if you think about it though

@Lil_refresha

@Xrail It's really not.

@danmsmith21

@TheyBLK saying any member of the opposite sex can't be stronger than you is blatantly sexist

@Lil_refresha

@Xrail Saying they can't be stronger than you doesn't mean they can't be as equally as strong as you. She never said that they aren't equal. She just said they're not above her so why are you so mad that women are proclaiming their equal strength?

@danmsmith21

@TheyBLK so you wouldn't care if a man said he was naive to think a woman could be stronger than him?

love everything about this ❀️

@Haoxman101

Even as a man, this still hits my heart ❀️ This makes me think of my mother when she was in arranged marriage at the age 14 having her whole life taken away from her. Her being cheated on for 40 plus years. It makes me happy to see my mom happy and more content with herself now. She’s a great role model. And this is no slander towards my father.

@Omeyfairy

Thank you for sharing this moment. Strong mother moment

@geegeepa8123

i hope you become a good husband to your wife and put her above all.
