Aura
VUKOVI Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want you to see
You've got your own look and aura
And don't it make you weak?
So carry on, carry on (I'm shutting them out)
They got nothing goin' on (and where are they now?)
Don't wanna be like the others
Why you wanna hurt someone like you?
Crying over sheep that don't get you
So don't be scared, you're not alone
We're weirdos too, and we'll follow you
You'll shoot 'em down when you start loving
You're not gonna be abused
Head up, move on, you got it
Not gonna let you lose
So carry on, carry on (I'm shutting them out)
They got nothing goin' on (and where are they now?)
Don't wanna be like the others
I want you to see
Why you wanna hurt someone like you?
Crying over sheep that don't get you
So don't be scared, you're not alone
We're weirdos too, you do you
I know you're feeling badly burned
Like your world is coming down
It's all a waste of sight and sound
(Do it right, right, you'll get it right)
Do it right right, you'll get it right
Do it right right, you'll get it right
The seesaw inside you just not gonna hold
Head up people, let your mass hit the floor
Open yourself 'cause the world needs to see
Do it right, right, you'll get it right
The seesaw inside you just not gonna hold
Head up people, let your mass hit the floor
Lock up your fears, only you've got the key
Do it right right, you'll get it right
Why you wanna hurt someone like you?
Crying over sheep that don't get you
So don't be scared, you're not alone
We're weirdos too
So don't be scared, you're not alone
We're weirdos too
So don't be scared, you're not alone
We're weirdos too
Why you wanna hurt someone like you?
Crying over sheep that don't get you
So don't be scared, you're not alone
We're weirdos too, and we'll follow you
I know you're feeling badly burned
Like your world is coming down
It's all a waste of sight and sound
(Do it right, right, you'll get it right)
I know you're feeling badly burned
Like your world is coming down
It's all a waste of sight and sound
(Do it right, right, you'll get it right)
I know you're feeling badly burned
Like your world is coming down
It's all a waste of sight and sound
(Do it right, right, you'll get it right)
The lyrics of VUKOVI's Aura are about staying true to oneself and not conforming to society's expectations. The song encourages listeners to embrace their uniqueness, their individuality, and their strengths. The first verse talks about how the singer doesn't want to be like the rest of the people, instead she wants to stand out and showcase the aura she has. The second verse encourages listeners to not be scared, as they are not alone, and urges them to embrace their weirdness, as they will always have people who will follow them. The chorus reinforces the idea that being different is okay and that people should not hurt themselves or others for not conforming.
The bridge of the song encourages people to keep going, to not give up, and to not be brought down by the world's negativity. The seesaw reference is about the constant ups and downs of life, but the song tells us to keep our heads up and let our mass (our weight, our substance) hit the floor, implying that we should stand on solid ground and not let ourselves be tossed around by the world. The end of the song reiterates the message that people should not be afraid to be themselves and that there are others out there just like them.
