Rebirth
X-Y Lyrics

It felt like the end
We were going through a really tough time and it felt like things could not get any worse.

We were hanging by a thread
Our situation was very precarious and we were holding on to hope by a mere thread.

that was just about to break
Our hope was so fragile that it could break at any moment and we would be left with nothing.

We kept hoping for a change
Despite our despair, we kept hoping that things would get better.

over and over again
We had been hoping for so long that it had become a repetitive and draining process.

But everything was frozen!
Despite our efforts, nothing was moving forward and it felt like we were stuck in a frozen state.

Tired of living in the past,
We were tired of dwelling on our past troubles and wanted to move on.

feeling numb most of the time,
Our past experiences had left us feeling emotionally numb, and unable to enjoy life to the fullest.

waiting for a better life,
We were waiting for a brighter future where we could finally be happy and fulfilled.

Didn't give me enough
Despite our best efforts, our situation never provided us with enough to make us truly happy.

and when we took one step forward
Whenever we thought we were making progress,

we realized it was 2 steps back.
We would quickly find ourselves right back where we started, with no real progress having been made.

I can't breath, oh I need to leave (this place)
Our situation was suffocating and we needed to get out in order to feel free and alive again.

the sunshine is chasing clouds, (chasing those black clouds)
Finally, we could see the light at the end of the tunnel as good times were approaching, slowly but surely.

here is my chance, my rebirth.
We saw this as a chance to leave the past behind and have a fresh start, a rebirth of sorts.

The dream was starting to come true,
Our long-held dream of a better life was finally starting to become a reality.

tonight we'll be in Hollywood.
We were so close to achieving our dreams, we were making it to Hollywood, the land of opportunities.

Can't wait to high-five Uncle Sam,
We couldn't wait to finally celebrate our success with the US government, maybe through a pat in the back or celebration of some sort.

and waste ourselves 'til morning light!
We were so happy and fulfilled that we wanted to celebrate and enjoy ourselves until the early hours of the day.

Such a fancy place,
Hollywood was a place of glamour and high status, a place we could be proud to be associated with.

to spend my days.
Our time in Hollywood was going to be a luxurious and wonderful experience, something we could truly enjoy.

Now I can breath, oh I need to live in this place.
We were finally able to breathe, to live our lives to the fullest in a place where we felt fulfilled and complete.

(Now I can breath, I'm feeling so much better
Our renewed sense of hope and purpose made us feel alive and renewed.

Amazing place, let's party all together!)
We were so happy in our new home that we wanted to celebrate and share our happiness with others.

the sunshine has chased away the clouds (chased away black clouds)
Our new life had finally pushed away the dark clouds of our past, and we could see a bright and hopeful future ahead.

I took my chance!
We finally got the opportunity we had been waiting for, and we seized it without hesitation.

Rebirth! Right now!
This was a true rebirth for us, and the beginning of a new life and a new chapter.

Rebirth! Somehow!
Despite all the struggles we had been through, we managed to come out on top and experience a true rebirth of ourselves.

I can't regret what I've been through
We couldn't have reached this point without going through the difficult times we had faced, and we wouldn't change a thing.

It made me know where I came from
Our past struggles gave us a sense of perspective and helped us understand where we came from and how we got here.

Wasted years, the blame's on you!
We recognized that the past was full of wasted time and opportunities that we could never get back, but we didn't blame ourselves for it.

Wicked prison, frozen people, no way!
Our past had been like a prison, full of people who were stuck in their own ways, and there was no way we were going back to that life.

I can't believe I didn't spit on their faces
We were proud of ourselves for not giving in to bitterness and resentment towards those who had held us back in the past.

Still time to kick some asses, yeah!
Although we had moved on, we recognized that we were still capable of standing up for ourselves and fighting back against those who had wronged us.
