Moving On
Sam Ock Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
eternity's rode
in the
depth of me
in the map to my soul
And I
wanna know
How to deal with this heart
Stuck in idling
It needs a new start
I long for the better life
I long for unending time
I long to know love and the way it was meant to be.
I wanna be free
I wanna sing
A beautiful song
I wanna be
Where I belong
So where do I go from here
Where can I go from here
But on
Can I say I get a little discouraged
To see the better looking souls moving on
Can I say I wanna get a bigger picture
Of more than this little fickle heart longs
The only way to grow is looking forward
The only way to know is looking past
All the things that wanna keep me in the same place
All the things that wanna make me step back
I've gotta cast all the lies aside
I've gotta kill all the shame and pride
I've gotta open this stone.cold heart
And let the devinity work and start
Cause when I look around and see the Times change
I get a little scared that I won't be the same
But I guess that's a good thing
Cause I'm loving everyday to let my soul sing
I wanna sing
A beautiful song
I wanna be
Where I belong
So where do I go from here
Where can I go from here
But on
I wanna sing
A beautiful song
I wanna be
Where I belong
So where do I go from here
Where can I go from here
But on
I wanna sing
A beautiful song
I wanna be
Where I belong
So where do I go from here
Where can I go from here
But onII wanna sing
A beautiful song
I wanna be
Where I belong
So where do I go from here
Where can I go from here
But on
I'm moving on
The lyrics of Sam Ock's song "Moving On" express the desire to be free and move forward in life, but also the internal struggle of feeling stuck and discouraged. The first verse talks about yearning for a deeper understanding of oneself and a longing for a better life. The phrase "stuck in idling" suggests feeling stagnant, possibly in a career or personal life. The desire for eternal purpose and a map to the soul implies a spiritual aspect to the search for direction. The repetition of "I long for" emphasizes the yearning for something more meaningful.
The second verse acknowledges the difficulty of moving forward when faced with the success of others and feeling like one's own heart is fickle and unsure. The lyrics suggest that growth and knowledge come from looking ahead and embracing change, letting go of shame, and allowing for transformation. The phrase "let the divinity work and start" points to a faith-based approach to changing oneself, trusting in a higher power to guide the way. The song ends on a note of determination, with the repetition of "I wanna sing a beautiful song" and "where do I go from here but on" emphasizing the resolve to keep moving forward.
Overall, "Moving On" is a song about the struggle for personal growth and finding one's place in the world. It addresses the fear of change and uncertainty while also advocating for resilience, hope, and faith.

To see the better looking souls moving on
Because I witness physically attractive people progressing forward
Can I say I wanna get a bigger picture
May I express my desire to see a grander perspective
Of more than this little fickle heart longs
Beyond what my unsteady heart yearns for
The only way to grow is looking forward
Progression only occurs by moving ahead
The only way to know is looking past
To comprehend, we must examine our history
All the things that wanna keep me in the same place
Obstacles that attempt to maintain my current state
All the things that wanna make me step back
Forces that work to take me back to where I started
I've gotta cast all the lies aside
I must discard any falsehoods
I've gotta kill all the shame and pride
I must rid myself of both guilt and arrogance
I've gotta open this stone.cold heart
I must break down my numb and unfeeling heart
And let the divinity work and start
So that the divine force within me can begin to operate
Cause when I look around and see the Times change
When I observe the alterations in my surroundings
I get a little scared that I won't be the same
Fearful that I will lose my identity
But I guess that's a good thing
However, this may actually be beneficial
Cause I'm loving everyday to let my soul sing
As I am cherishing each day by allowing my innermost being to express itself
I'm moving on
I am progressing and advancing
