Orion
peratus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
i feel like ive been swept away,
i stare into space and i see orion's way
it seems a path laid out for me
you try to hold me down, claiming i cant see
a thing
but your wrong, ill show you
Chorus:
i cant help myself, im breaking you softly now
i cant help myself, i see all to clearly
so many times i sit and think
my minds a prison cell, incarcerating me
orion's light could set me free,
then you snuff it out, claiming i cant see a thing
but your wrong, ill show you
ill break you
Chorus:
Bridge:
i cant help myself, i see you clearly
i cant help myself, can anybody hear me (x2)
now im at peace with the landscape, we can make a deal, on a handshake
just a little tale 'bout a mans fate
chronic got my eyelids heavy as damn weights
now im layed out, field of dreams, the pattern of the stars,
conceal the schemes, no matter 'bout tomorrow, ill it seems
when yesterdays gone what will it mean.
Chorus:
Outro: you dont like what you see, your words tear into me
that you could even think, to stand up to me (x2)
The song "Orion" by Peratus is about the struggles of feeling trapped and confined within one's own mind. The singer feels like they have been swept away by their thoughts, and the only way to find clarity is by staring into the stars and seeking out Orion's constellation. However, someone in their life is trying to hold them back and keep them from finding their way. Despite this, the singer remains resolute in their determination to break free and prove this person wrong.
The lyrics of the song are open to interpretation, but it seems to be about overcoming obstacles and finding peace within oneself. The singer uses the symbol of Orion, the hunter constellation, to represent the path they need to follow to break free. The song suggests that sometimes the people in our lives can hold us back, but we shouldn't let them deter us from our goals. In the end, the singer seems to find peace and acceptance, but they still struggle with the weight of their past.

i feel like ive been swept away,
I feel like my life is out of my control
i stare into space and i see orion's way
I find comfort in the stars and the idea of a predetermined path
it seems a path laid out for me
I believe that my destiny is predetermined
you try to hold me down, claiming i cant see
You are trying to limit me and my potential
a thing
My vision and perspective
but your wrong, ill show you
I know I am capable of proving you wrong
ill break you
I will overcome any obstacles and limitations you put on me
i cant help myself, im breaking you softly now
I am defying your expectations and limitations in a subtle way
i see all to clearly
I have a clear vision of what I need to do
so many times i sit and think
I often contemplate my life
my minds a prison cell, incarcerating me
I feel trapped by my own thoughts and insecurities
orion's light could set me free,
The idea of a predetermined path gives me hope for freedom
then you snuff it out, claiming i cant see a thing
You are trying to keep me limited and trapped in my own mind
i cant help myself, i see you clearly
I see through your limitations and criticisms
can anybody hear me
I feel isolated and unheard
now im at peace with the landscape, we can make a deal, on a handshake
I am finding inner peace and believe that compromises can be made
just a little tale 'bout a mans fate
A story about the predetermined path and limitations in life
chronic got my eyelids heavy as damn weights
My struggles and hardships are weighing me down
now im layed out, field of dreams, the pattern of the stars, conceal the schemes,
I am finding solace and hope in nature and the stars
no matter 'bout tomorrow, ill it seems
I am finding peace in the present moment and not worrying about the future
when yesterdays gone what will it mean.
I am reflecting on the significance of the past and wondering about its impact on my future
you dont like what you see, your words tear into me
Your criticisms are hurtful and damaging to my confidence
that you could even think, to stand up to me
You underestimate my strength and determination
