StoneBank Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yes, you've had it quite tough,
Always having bad luck.
You think you're going crazy,
Look up, there's a new life waiting.
Your head's buried in the sa-a-and,
You're being dealt the wrong ha-a-and.
Can't imagine how you feel,
Don't look back,
Just carry on,
Don't look back,
Just carry on,
'Cause you are stronger!
Yes, you are stronger.
'Cause you are stronger!
Yes you are stronger.
Stronger!
Yes, you've had it quite tough,
Always having bad luck.
You think you're going crazy,
Look up there's a new life waiting.
Your head's buried in the sa-a-and,
Youre being dealt the wrong ha-a-and.
Can't imagine how you feel,
Only you know that it's real.
Don't look back,
Just carry on,
Don't look back,
Just carry on,
'Cause you are stronger!
Yes you are stronger.
'Cause you are stronger!
Stronger!
The song "Stronger" by StoneBank is an empowering anthem that encourages listeners to keep pushing forward, no matter what struggles they may face. The lyrics start off by acknowledging that the person in question has had a tough time and has always had bad luck. They may even feel like they're going crazy. However, the chorus comes in with an uplifting message that there's a new life waiting for them if they just look up and keep going.
The verses go on to describe how the person may feel like they're buried in sand, being dealt the wrong hand in life. However, only they know how it truly feels, and they should keep moving forward. The repetition of "don't look back, just carry on" reinforces the message that it's important to keep pushing forward and not dwell on the past. The chorus repeats the message that the person is strong and can overcome whatever obstacles come their way.
