Sarantos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Are you ready for the climb that lies ahead?
Does the passion burn in your heart?
Is your mind starting to understand?
This challenge that's thrown upon us
We need to struggle to learn to survive
Only once in a lifetime you feel it
Do you know how long you can take it?
Are you willing to take the chance?
Do you know if you really believe it?
Are you sure you can last?
As the night settles down upon us
The moon shining bright tonight
You look up to heaven for guidance
And ask yourself if the timing's right
Can you believe for one second that you've made it?
Are you sure you can play their game?
You answer your critics with a question
You're not sure you'll ever be the same
Do you know how long you can take it?
Are you willing to take the chance?
Do you know if you really believe it?
Are you sure you can last?
Do you know how long you can take it?
Are you willing to take the chance?
Do you know if you really believe it?
Are you sure you can last?
Do you know how long you can take it?
Are you willing to take the chance?
Do you know if you really believe it?
Are you sure you can last?
Listen to that beating drum?
Do you know why your heart makes that sound?
Is there a doubt still in your mind?
Are you ready to take the crown?
Are you ready to take the crown?
Are you ready to take the crown?
Do you know how long you can take it?
Are you willing to take the chance?
Do you know if you really believe it?
Are you sure you can last??
Are you ready for all the glory?
Are you willing to risk it all?
Are you sure you can take it?
Do you wanna make it?
Are you ready to stand tall?
Do you really want it all?
'Cause it's a long way down
If you fall
In "Are You Sure You Can Last?" by Sarantos, the singer is asking themselves a series of challenging questions to determine if they are ready to take on a difficult task or challenge. The questions posed in the lyrics are focused on testing their strength of will, dedication, motivation, and belief in themselves. The opening lyrics state that a "moment of truth" has arrived and that the singer must "climb" ahead. The use of the metaphorical "climb" could refer to a real obstacle that they are facing or simply to an arduous undertaking that requires a lot of determination and effort.
The next set of lyrics asks if the singer has passion in their heart and has begun to understand the task ahead of them. The allusion to "struggle to learn to survive" indicates that the challenge at hand is not for the faint of heart and that it may require overcoming significant adversity. The lyrics suggest that it is their time to thrive and that they should only take on such a challenge if they believe that they are capable of succeeding.
As the night falls, the lyrics continue to ask if the singer is sure they want to undertake this challenge, that they've "made it" and that they can "play their game". It seems that the singer may be questioning their own abilities and whether they are capable of succeeding in this challenge. They are searching for guidance and trying to determine if the "timing's right". The lyrics repeat the same set of challenging questions addressed to the singer in the chorus several times, implying that these kinds of self-doubts recur and must be dealt with again and again.
Despite questioning themselves, the singer ultimately seems resolute in their determination to take on the challenging task. The final lyrics ask if the singer is ready to gain "all the glory" and to stand tall. The repeated questions conclude with a reference to the possibility of failure: "it's a long way down if you fall". The song leaves the listener with the sense that the singer has been pushed to a decision point and has decided to take the leap with full determination.
