I Am One
44 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Try to find messiah in your trinity
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
In your city to burn, you'll burn
Am I as I seem?
I'm down
Time is right for a guiding light
Try to turn to reasons in your bitter life
Your city to burn
Your city to burn
Try to look for something
In your city to burn, you'll burn
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don't you just want to
See you
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
See you, don't you just want to
See you, I am one
The lyrics of the song "I Am One" by 44 denote an individual's search for meaning and purpose beyond the confines of society's established norms and beliefs. The opening line "I am one as you are three" challenges the notion of the Holy Trinity, implying that each individual contains a divine entity within themselves. The singer suggests that the search for a messiah or a savior should be an individual journey rather than looking to external sources for answers.
The repeated line "Your city to burn" could be interpreted in two ways. In one sense, it could be a warning about the dangers of blindly following societal norms and beliefs that could potentially lead to destruction. On the other hand, it could also be seen as a call to action for individuals to question and challenge the status quo and pave the way for a new way of living.
The chorus of the song conveys the idea that the singer is not alone in their search for meaning and that others may also be looking for something beyond what society has to offer. The repetition of "See you, don't you just want to, see you, I am one" suggests that although individuals may have different paths, they are ultimately connected in their search for truth, purpose, and personal fulfillment.
