Gravity
The Vibrant Sound Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm looking for some thing to set me free
Gravity has got a hold on me
And I'm looking for some thing to set me free
There is a force that can hold me down
It ain't never gonna hold me back
So I sat on the top of the world for a minute
I said make way in the atmosphere
'Cause the rocketeer is here
And it's clear to me that I can finally see
How I'm ever gonna conquer fear
I gotta take flight in the island sun
And be a shiny one like the stars
I could blast off past all the molecules
Till I find the life on Mars
If it's faith you need or a tiny spark
You can find your hope in me
'Cause life is living on a cliff in the dark
In the middle of an open sea
So everybody on the count of 3 come on and jump with me
Gravity has got a hold on me
And I'm looking for some thing to set me free
Gravity has got a hold on me
And I'm looking for some thing to set me free
You know I gotta fly
You know I gotta fly
You know I gotta fly
You know I gotta fly
There is a place that I like to go
Far above in the azure sky
Where most of the things in this world don't matter
Never let life pass you by
So you've got to seize the day
Your per diem is carpe
I took a trip on a train that showed me how
Paradise is right this way
Yeah, so I saw what's above the clouds
Find a place I could levitate
Then took an elevator to the top floor,
Stopped at the water of the golden gates
It's my time to fly away
And defy all the laws of the galaxy
'Cause this time I'm finally free
From the grasp of gravity
Everybody on the count of 3 come on and jump with me
Everybody on the count of 3 come on and jump with me
Gravity has got a hold on me
And I'm looking for some thing to set me free
Gravity has got a hold on me
And I'm looking for some thing to set me free
You know I gotta fly
You know I gotta fly
You know I gotta fly
You know I gotta fly
Fly, you know I gotta fly
You know I gotta fly
You know I'm gonna fly
You know I'm gonna fly
Gravity, you've got no hold on me

Gravity has got a hold on me
There is a force that can hold me down
And I'm looking for some thing to set me free
I am trying to find something that will release me from the force of gravity
So I sat on the top of the world for a minute
I spent some time in a high place
When it hinted I could find a crack
When I saw a possibility to escape
I said make way in the atmosphere
I asked for a passage through the air
'Cause the rocketeer is here
Because I am a skilled pilot
And it's clear to me that I can finally see
I have a newfound clarity about how to overcome my fears
How I'm ever gonna conquer fear
My plan for how to overcome my fears
I gotta take flight in the island sun
I need to fly toward the light
And be a shiny one like the stars
I want to shine brightly
I could blast off past all the molecules
I could travel at incredible speeds
Till I find the life on Mars
Until I discover new possibilities
If it's faith you need or a tiny spark
If you need hope or inspiration
You can find your hope in me
I can be a source of hope for you
'Cause life is living on a cliff in the dark
Life is unpredictable and full of challenges
In the middle of an open sea
In the midst of vast uncertainty
So everybody on the count of 3 come on and jump with me
Let's all take a leap of faith
There is a place that I like to go
There is a location that I find comforting
Far above in the azure sky
High up in the beautiful blue sky
Where most of the things in this world don't matter
Where the trivialities of life don't have much influence
Never let life pass you by
Don't waste opportunities in life
Your per diem is carpe
Seize each day as if it's your last
I took a trip on a train that showed me how
I had an experience that taught me a lesson
Paradise is right this way
Heaven is within reach
Yeah, so I saw what's above the clouds
I got a glimpse of what's beyond the realm of ordinary experience
Find a place I could levitate
Discover a place where I can float and be weightless
Then took an elevator to the top floor,
Then took a lift to reach the highest point
Stopped at the water of the golden gates
Paused at the entrance to something magnificent
It's my time to fly away
It's my moment to soar freely
And defy all the laws of the galaxy
To ignore conventional constraints
'Cause this time I'm finally free
This time I have the power to be free
From the grasp of gravity
To escape the pull of gravity
You know I gotta fly
I am determined to fly
Fly, you know I gotta fly
Flying is my destiny
Gravity, you've got no hold on me
I am free from the force of gravity
