Take My Hand
The Frost Lyrics

Yeah yeah yeah
Expressing excitement and enthusiasm

Classic vibes only
A nod to the timeless style of the song

I only made a wish
Acknowledging that the journey to success often starts with just a wish or a dream

Yeah yeah
Reiterating the excitement and enthusiasm

Look ey
Drawing attention to the message that follows

Darkness is proudly sponsored by all the failures in life
Recognizing that struggles and failures can lead to a sense of darkness or despair

So many people can dictate how you should live your life
Acknowledging the societal pressures to conform and follow certain paths in life

Like how you think making music buys you a bread in life?
Questioning the belief that success in music will guarantee financial stability

Lil did they know I can do this without money in sight
Proudly declaring the ability to follow one's passion without monetary incentives

Tried being a pilot and trading but still ain't feeling right
Acknowledging previous career attempts that didn't bring fulfillment

Always unhappy and even wanted to take my life
Sharing the struggle with mental health and suicidal thoughts

Like do you know how it feels to sit down your parents and tell them you quitting this career
Describing the difficulty in disappointing family and deviating from traditional career paths

Especially for something you've been doing but still ain't made no move
Highlighting the frustration of not seeing progress in one's passion

Like how the hell should I cope with this pressure on my shoulders
Expressing the weight and stress of expectations and responsibilities

Mmh?
A rhetorical question used to emphasize the seriousness of the topic

Ey God I'm writing you this letter, I filled it up with sins
Turning to a higher power for guidance and support

I almost gave up my soul to make it within my dreams
Describing the lengths one may go to in pursuit of their dreams

Forgetting that I'm Christian, firm believer that is saved
Admitting a lack of faith and questioning one's religious beliefs

Writing my papers with dirty rhymes and you never in script
Acknowledging the use of profanity in music, and the potential conflict with religious values

I hope my soul you take and be the child you won't forsake
Asking for forgiveness and redemption, hoping to remain in God's favor

I'm fighting dangers of the world, while I remain content
Recognizing the difficulties and hardships of life, while striving for inner peace and happiness

And may my eyes never show pride
Expressing a desire to remain humble and avoid arrogance

My tongue never speak lies
Striving for honesty and integrity in one's speech

And
Connecting the previous two lines with the following line

May my feet never run to the devil
Avoiding temptation and staying on a righteous path

On behalf of everyone, I'm really sorry my lord
Asking for forgiveness for oneself and others

Sometimes reality feels realistic than our prayers
Admitting that the difficulties of life can sometimes feel more tangible than the comfort of prayer

I'm cleaning up my guilt
Attempting to rid oneself of negative emotions and actions

Soak up myself in a pool of hundred percent grape juice
Metaphorically cleansing oneself of impurities and indulging in a purer substance

And this a life I choose
Accepting responsibility for one's choices and actions

You blessing people that's treated badly for doing right
Acknowledging the value and importance of doing the right thing and standing up for oneself and others

What's the point of living without the one who gave me life?
Questioning the purpose and meaning of life without a belief in a higher power

I used to focus on cars, money, houses etcetera
Admitting past materialistic priorities

Now I don't care 'bout the cars or money inside my pockets
No longer prioritizing material possessions

Overdosed the pill of happiness and followed you
Finding happiness and contentment by following one's faith

The poverty and pain inside me made me someone new
Acknowledging the personal growth and transformation that can result from hardship

Loving material things is same as hating you
Implying that prioritizing material possessions can conflict with religious values and beliefs

I hope somebody listens
Expressing a desire for others to hear and understand the message of the song

And get it right
Encouraging listeners to take the message to heart and apply it to their own lives

God if I ever drown another day
Returning to a plea for guidance and redemption

I hope my sins are cleared and I just pray my soul you take
Asking for forgiveness and acceptance in the afterlife

And if my pain will never fly away
Acknowledging the persistence of past pain and struggles

I hope I open up to people so they can relate
Encouraging vulnerability and sharing in order to connect with others who may be going through similar experiences

God if I ever drown another day
Reiterating the plea for guidance and redemption

I hope my sins are cleared and I just pray my soul you take
Restating the desire for forgiveness and acceptance in the afterlife

And if my pain will never fly away
Repeating the acknowledgement of past pain and struggles

I hope I open up to people so they can relate
Reiterating the call for vulnerability and connection with others
