Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And when I leave gonna find a land where I'll be free
I don't need to listen to your policies
How can we follow if you don't understand
I can tell you've closed the door
To the forest who cries
Do you want to live proudly or are you happy in the lost world
When I go, gonna find me a path where I'll roam free
When I leave gonna find a girl who I'll marry
I don't need to listen to all your lies
How can we help you if you don't understand
Now I feel that we have a choice
To clear our minds from all worries
See it clearly in my heart
That the wise man sleeps alone
You're just two steps away, to turn the night into day
I believe in something so strong
That you believe in something so wrong
Now I find I'm moving away
Coz you believe in nothing at all
When I go, gonna buy me a boat and float to the sea
When I leave gonna find a land where I'll be free
I don't need to listen to your policies
How can I move you if you don't understand
You're just two steps away, to turn the night into day
I believe in something so strong
That you believe in something so wrong
Now I find I'm moving away
Coz you believe in nothing at all
The song "Two Steps" by Bôa is a compelling narrative about the artist's willingness to break away from societal norms and expectations. The lyrics showcase Bôa's desire for freedom and autonomy, both physically and mentally. In the first verse, Bôa declares their intentions to buy a boat and sail away into the sea, searching for a land where they'll be free. They express their disillusionment with societal norms and those in power, questioning their policies and their ability to understand the needs of the people they serve.
In the second verse, Bôa intensifies the theme of freedom by now expressing their desire for a life partner they connect with deeply. They dismiss the lies and misconceptions that others force upon them, and in a moment of clarity, realize that they have a choice. In this moment of self-realization, Bôa chooses to break free from society's constraints, believing in their desires, and moving away from anything or anyone that hinders or distracts them from their goal.
The lyrics question the need for conforming to societal norms and suggest that the key to true fulfillment lies in following one's heart and taking ownership of one's life. The song's chorus expresses the sense of urgency and potential for change, encouraging the listener that change is possible and that they are just two steps away from turning their own lives around.
