Bodi - Atlas [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Bodi]
I love life to death, and til the day that I rest
Every breath in my chest will give my best to the blessed
Souls, who don't know what they've got til it's ghost
Yesterday's smoke's broke by tomorrow's hope
They stand tall in the shadows of giants
Til the moment in the sun when they're touched by Midas
Walk no fear in the den of the lions
If I can't live like I'm dyin I'll die tryin'
From my perch under Earth, I've seen the death and the birth
Angels falling to dirt when they don't know their true worth
Burst courage and faith when best turns to worst
Kingdoms fall from heaven when their kings are placed first
Beginning to the end - cradle to the hearse
Forced to watch it all - I guess that's my curse
If a tree falls lone, then there isn't a sound
If Atlas falls, there isn't a ground

[Chorus: Bodi]
And I can't give up and can't see them fall
And we evolved from dust into this free for all
Can't give up and can't see them fall
And we evolved from dust into this free for all (2x)

[Verse 2: Bodi]
All I ever wanted was to live in the moment
A single second on this sphere without the worry to hold it
No more promises broken, no more innocence stolen
No more floatin on hope when the present is golden
I can't turn my back when I see the palms open
I'll let this break me down before I hear more psalms spoken
Leave destiny to everyone for findin'
If I can't live like I'm dyin I'll die tryin'
When the chisel and stone found the gristle and bone
Humanity's tapestry once sewn was blown
Alone and on their own carving borders out of home
In the face of mercy shown barking orders from the throne
I tried to hide the diatribe that only divides
And shine a light on broken battle cries to visualize the blind
Opened Pandora's Box, there’s nothing inside
I'm lost and I know she's got something to hide

[Chorus]

[Verse 3: Bodi]
It's the beauty in the struggle that validates the trouble
From the photographs of Hubble back to Babylon's rubble
The strongest muscle in the body is the heart
And that's the only thing that makes it not fall apart
When the march to compassion overtakes passive action
Dreams manifest and cease to be imagined
The journey never ends and the long road's windin'
If I can't live like I'm dyin I'll die tryin'
When the stars turn to dust and the sky falls down
And the last stand proud in a mushroom cloud
The past voices settle in eternity's echoes
The ground cover's smothered with the finals rose petals
I'll be right here in the same place
Cause at the end of the day we're all saved by grace
When history's erased, my memory of love
And human compassion is the reason I won't shrug

[Chorus]
