Redemption
The Nova Hawks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ain't no release
In beggin' you please
For forgiveness x2
I just wanted a taste
Anything he wanted to
Teach.
I had no time to waste
Preach
Call on your saviour
Let him know
He can't save you
Oh my lord,
I don't want you
To set me right
Oh My lord
We got verses
To rewrite
I don't wanna
Disrespect your beliefs
But set fire to
The passion in me
Baby touch my soul
Cos you know
You got power over me
Call on your saviour
Let him know that
He can't save you.
Singing, oh my lord
I don't want you
To set me right
Oh my lord
We got verses
To rewrite
Ain't redemption
Ain't not release
In beggin you please
For forgiveness
Oh My lord
I don't want you
To set me right
Oh my Lord
We got verses
To rewrite.
There ain't no redemption
There ain't no release
In beggin' you please
For forgiveness x 4
The Nova Hawks's song "Redemption" is a profound reflection on redemption, forgiveness, and faith. The lyrics suggest that there might be no redemption or release if we beg for forgiveness. The singer seems to be seeking redemption and is aware that it might not be possible to attain. The line "I just wanted a taste, Anything he wanted to teach," suggests that the singer is a sinner seeking redemption.
The lyrics are rich in imagery and symbolism, and the references to the savior and lord imply religious undertones. The singer acknowledges that he doesn't want the lord to set him right in the lines, "Oh my lord, I don't want you, To set me right." The song suggests that the singer wants to take control of his own destiny and rewrite the verses. However, the song also acknowledges that one doesn't want to disrespect someone's beliefs.
Overall, "Redemption" is a song about the search for forgiveness, redemption, and personal growth. It represents the struggle of coming to terms with one's mistakes and reconciling them with our moral beliefs.

1st time hearing this blues rock band if my memory serves. However, they impressed me instrumentally, lyrically & vocally, so I'm pretty sure this won't be the last time. I only wish they were on Bandcamp also, not only on Soundcloud.
The Nova Hawks
Appreciate the kind words Tarmo!
