The Power of Now
Steve Aoki & Headhunterz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We used to dance until we die
Lost in the present
Give me the strenght to stay and fight
Time is a weapon
There is a world outside we′re living in
No surrendering now
We used to dance until we die
Can you be there, be there, with us

Feel, feel, feel
I've realy keep in my bones the oceans of now
Feel, feel, feel
Won′t you follow me, follow me?




Feel, feel, feel
Won't you follow me, follow?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Steve Aoki and Headhunterz's song "The Power of Now" are a reflection of the power of living in the present moment. The first verse describes a time when the world was filled with dancing until exhaustion, where people were lost in the moment, living life to the fullest. However, the second line suggests a change, a realisation that in the present moment, we need to find strength to survive and cope with the challenges life presents us. The lyrics suggest that time is a weapon; it can either be our friend or worst enemy, but it is up to us to take control of it. It is here where the chorus kicks in, emphasising the importance of being present, feeling everything the moment has to offer.


The second verse begins with the acknowledgement that the world is filled with so much more than where we currently are. It is a call to arms, a demand not to surrender, to rise up against all odds and make the most of the time we have. The chorus repeats, urging listeners to follow the artist as they lead the way into the present moment.


"The Power of Now" encourages us to live in the present, not just for a moment but to make it a way of life. It is a reflection of the beauty and power of living in the moment and all its potential. The song urges us to take advantage of the moment and experience it to the fullest, for it is the place where life happens.
