Skylar Blue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can make a run for my crown
Even with an army of people
You ain't gonna take us down
You can aim your evil right at us
You can drop your bombs on the ground
Even if your stare makes me nervous
You ain't gonna take us down
If darkness fills the skies
We'll go on forever
Like the phoenix, we
Will rise up from the ashes
This world is ours tonight
We'll go on forever
Like the phoenix, we
Will rise
We will rise
You can take a swing at my ego
You can make a run for my crown
Even with an army of people
You ain't gonna take us down
You can aim your evil right at us
You can drop your bombs on the ground
Even if your stare makes me nervous
You ain't gonna take us down
There'll be no need for crying
If darkness fills the skies
We'll go on forever
Like the phoenix, we
Will rise up from the ashes
This world is ours tonight
We'll go on forever
Like the phoenix, we
Will rise
We will rise
The lyrics of Skylar Blue's song, Promise, speak about the power of resilience and determination in the face of adversity. The singer portrays themselves as someone who is not easily intimidated or defeated by external forces, no matter how strong they may seem. The opening lines suggest that the singer is confident of their abilities and is unafraid of challenges to their pride and position of power.
The second stanza conveys the message that the singer is ready to face any form of evil or attack that may come their way. Even if the situation looks grim and makes them nervous, they are determined not to give up or be defeated. The chorus, with its repetitive yet affirming style, reinforces its central message of resilience and strength. The image of the phoenix that rises from its ashes is used metaphorically to suggest that no matter how dire the circumstances may seem, the singer will always rise and thrive.

It's haunting
This hold that you have over me
I grow so weak
I see you
And everything around you fades
And I can't speak
But you can never know what it is you do to me
(What it is you do to me)
I can't take what you're doing to me
I can't take it
No matter what I say or what I do
I know how this will end
So I'm turning away now before we begin
And no matter what you say or what you do
I know how this will end
So I'm turning away now
I'm dangerous for you
You touch me
And I can barely make a move
And I can't breathe
You can never know what it is you do to me
(What it is you do to me)
I can't take what you're doing to me
I can't take it
No matter what I say or what I do
I know how this will end
So I'm turning away now before we begin
And no matter what you say or what you do
I know how this will end
So I'm turning away now
I'm dangerous
The only promise I could make you
Is that my promise is a lie
The only promise I could make you
Is that my promise is a lie
No matter what I say or what I do
I know how this will end
So I'm turning away now before we begin
And no matter what you say or what you do
I know how this will end
So I'm turning away now
I'm dangerous for you
I'm dangerous, I'm dangerous for you
My promise is I will hurt you
