Wrabel\Afrojack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hundred years ago someone said to me
You can change the World by the way you speak
But every word you hear is every word you say
I could see the feelings written on your face
You don't believe in love
You don't believe it's true
You don't know where I go
You don't know what I do
If I could make you see the way it supposed to be
Only LOVE could set you FREE

We'll be OK ooh oh
Don't be afraid, you know
Music will play ooh oh oh
We'll be OK oh ooh oh
We'll be OK ooh oh
Don't be afraid, you know
Music will play ooh oh oh
We'll be OK oh ooh oh

A hundred years from now
Maybe we'll turn around and
See the flowers growing in the battle grounds
Let's go to sleep tonight, wake up another day
When we can built a world that's made of different shades
I still believe in LOVE
I still believe it's true
I'm takin' where I've been and see what I can do
I'm tryina make you see the way it ought to be
Only LOVE could set you FREE

We'll be OK ooh oh
Don't be afraid, you know
Music will play ooh oh oh
We'll be OK oh ooh oh
We'll be OK ooh oh
Don't be afraid, you know
Music will play ooh oh oh
We'll be OK oh ooh oh

Hold my hand,
You know we can learn to love again
And I'll never hurt you! I'll be your friend
Yeah, for better or worst
Just don't let go, go

We'll be OK ooh oh
Don't be afraid, you know
Music will play ooh oh oh
We'll be OK oh ooh oh





We'll be OK ooh oh
Don't be afraid, you know

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Wrabel and Afrojack's song "We'll Be Ok" reflect a hopeful perspective of a future where love and peaceful coexistence triumphs over hate and conflict. The song starts with a reminiscence of words spoken long ago, emphasizing the power of spoken words to change the world. However, the next line suggests that the words we hear and speak may shape our perception of reality, and if we believe in love, we could be free. The singer tries to convince a person who doesn't believe in love and doesn't know them well that love is the only thing that could set them free.


The chorus "We'll be OK" is a reassurance that even though things may seem bad right now, they will be okay in the end. The second verse continues with a future perspective, set a hundred years from now, where people will witness flowers growing in battlegrounds. The singer hopes for a time when humanity has evolved beyond hate and destruction, and a peaceful world made of different shades of color will be built. After expressing their belief in love, the singer holds the hand of the person they are trying to convince, promising never to hurt them and wanting to be their friend. The final repetition of the chorus provides a sense of comfort and motivation to fight for a better future.

The 2011-2015 period were the golden era of EDM. Lots and lots of quality electronic songs week after week.

The era was ignited by the Swedish DJ's like Avicci, Axwell, ingrosso etc.. their songs started to get huge airplays in USA, thus started to take over the mainstream music, competed with pop music and at a point of time even mainstream pop music was losing to edm. That was the standard of these DJ's.

The era was dominated by mostly European producers like Avicci, Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, Hardwell, Tiesto, Afrojack, Robin Schulz, Alesso, showteck, Nicky Romero and many other.

Avicci and Calvin Harris seemed like the flag bearers of the era with their many smash hits.

Swedish House Mafia dissolved before Axwell and ingrosso started making music as duo, they were also one of the key figures of the era.

Dutch DJ's Hardwell, Afrojack and Tiesto had huge success with their songs getting in to Billboard charts and New faces like Martin Garrix and Alesso were big hit from the very start and went on to become so huge by the end of the era.

Music festivals like Tomorrowland and ultra music festival became the biggest festivals of the decade which helped edm to become a culture worldwide and helped to regain its long lost glory.

House music was the king. Electro, progressive, bigroom, deep and tropical house songs were all over the charts.

New artist kygo from Norway increased the legacy of the era by give great tropical house classics .kygos arrival was during the last year's of the golden age and continued his success past the era

The era also had great number of Drum n bass,Dubstep, hardstyle hits which showed the diversity of golden age.

The golden age came to an end when producers started featuring for mainstream pop artists for dance pop songs which have mostly a future bass or trap drop eg: Martin Garrix, Dimitri Vegas and chainsmokers whose new hits which were mostly future bass and trap which were well recieved .

The shift from the major house sound to the hip-hop trap, future bass kind of sound was evident. There were many good artists in these like chainsmokers but all producers somehow tried different styles which were not as catchy or impactful as their previous hits.
Still, Calvin Harris enjoyed success with club edm sound, kygo was becoming huge but the huge number in dutch and Swedish House songs declined and the industry was inclined towards a different sound

Mumble rap came in to scene and a horrific trap sound ruled the industry for some years . Only a few artists like Alan Walker, kygo and new artists like marshmelo was able to hit some sweet spot.

Marshmello sucsses proved that trap and future bass sounds are now the ruling sound of the industry during late 2010s .

But by then the golden age signature house sound faded away. If you ask a music critics of 2010 that what was the highlight of the decade, you most probably get the answer EDM

Definitely edm was the gamechanger ,an explosion in to the scene which wa predicted by many artists a long time ago, And the result was gold. The era gave great memories to music fans especially electronic music fans to cherish forever.

Hardcore edm fans believe that the era is not at all dead and it's in it's dormant stage and waiting for a huge comeback♥️ hope so😊

~Lyrics~ Enjoy :')

I'm clumsy, yeah my head's a mess
'Cause you got me growing taller everyday
We're giants in a little man's world
My heart is pumping up so big that it could burst
Been trying so hard not to let it show
But you got me feeling like
I'm stepping on buildings, cars and boats
I swear I could touch the sky
Ohhh ohh ohhh
I'm ten feet tall
Ohhh oh ohhhh
I'm ten feet tall
I'll be careful, so don't be afraid
You're safe here, no, these arms won't let you break
I'll put up a sign in the clouds
So they all know that we ain't ever coming down
Been trying so hard not to let it show
But you got me feeling like
I'm stepping on buildings, cars and boats
I swear I could touch the sky
Ohhh oh ohhh
I'm ten feet tall
Ohhh oh ohhhh
I'm ten feet tall
You build me up
Make me what I never was
You build me up
From nothing into something
Yeah, something from the dust
Been trying so hard not to let it show
But you got me feeling like
I'm stepping on buildings, cars and boats
I swear I could touch the sky
Ohhh oh ohhh
I'm ten feet tall
Ohhh oh ohhhh
I'm ten feet tall
Ohhh oh ohhh
I'm ten feet tall
Ohhh oh ohhhh
I'm ten feet tall

This is a masterpiece. Unfortunately there are no more songs like this nowadays.

@RhapsodyHC

The house/EDM/party pop era is the best!
