Elevate
Siedd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Only obligation is 5 a day
Me and all my brothers found a better a way
Hikma moving back it's time to celebrate
I'm in better shape, thinking back today
All this happened for myself and my family
All this happened for myself and my family
Yeah, yeah
If you try me you can't stop me
I'm in the city, ya rabb you got me
Lord knows all that's on my mind
Five years down don't know where I'll be
I'm in the city with my homies
Yeah they're the only ones I'll ever let know me
They already know that you're the one and only
You know we're the types that like to keep things holy
Holy, goodness gracious, God is just the greatest
And when the angels say your name, you know that's really being famous
I read a few words, it's amazing
But I couldn't picture being on stage,
When I was calling quits and walkin' off on one occasion
I couldn't picture changes, when asking for some patience
It really made me
Couldn't picture being places when I was in
The north singing trying to make a statement
A camera saved it
Swear it changed since
I wanna thank God for making roads that I'm paving
I'm staying grateful, it feels amazing
Elevate Elevate
Only obligation is 5 a day
Me and all my guys found a record eh
Makkah for a week, that's a getaway
I'm in better shape, thinking back today
All this happened for myself and my family
All this happened for myself and my family
Times it don't feel real Lord you blessed me
The song "Elevate" by Siedd has a strong theme of gratitude and faith to God. The opening lyric of "Only obligation is 5 a day" refers to the five daily Islamic prayers, which the singer sees as a consistent way to elevate himself and his brothers. The following line, "Me and all my brothers found a better way," suggests that they have overcome challenges or hardships and discovered a path towards greater fulfillment and purpose.
The reference to "Hikma moving back" may be a nod to the pharmaceutical company Hikma, which was founded in Jordan in 1978 and has since expanded globally. The line "it's time to celebrate" implies a positive and triumphant mood, perhaps related to the company's success or an achievement in the singer's personal life.
The repetition of the phrase "All this happened for myself and my family" underscores the importance of family and their role in shaping the singer's life. The gratitude towards God is expressed with the line "Times it don't feel real Lord you blessed me," suggesting that the singer recognizes the blessings and good fortune in his life.

The Nasheed video was pretty good but I have to be honest Siedd this one just wasn't that amazing. The back track felt repetitive and boring and the lyrics didn't feel like they built up to the chorus as much as I would have liked. I lived all your previous Nasheeds but this one I feel wasn't as good man.
Just trying to help you I still love your other Nasheeds!
Btw I sent you an email regarding releasing just the back tracks/ kareoke versions of your Nasheeds for content creators and I would appreciate if you could update me on that.
