The song Defying Gravity, has been done many times, because of is complex vocals it shows off the singers talent.... blah blah blah.. its good trust me.
Well I have been trying to listen to the lyrics of the songs they sing, because they were picked for each moment and they have some purpose...
So I was listening to the lyrics, and they are great!!! If you don't know them or just want to read them again, here you go....
Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts, close my eyes and leap!
It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you won't bring me down
I'm through accepting limits 'cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change but 'til I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love, it comes at much too high a cost!
I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you won't bring me down
Unlimited (unlimited)
My future is (future is) unlimited (unlimited)
And I've just had a vision
Almost like a prophecy
I know it sounds truly crazy
And true, the vision's hazy
But I swear, someday I'll be...
Flying so high! (defying gravity)
Kiss me goodbye! (defying gravity)
So if you care to find me
Look to the western sky!
As someone told me lately,
"Everyone deserves the chance to fly!"
I'm defying gravity!
And you won't bring me down, bring me down, bring me down!
The song starts off by saying something has changed and that she is not the same, I can relate to this a lot! I love how the song is about embracing the a change, and using it to achieve new heights and better things. Now the song is was written for the Musical Wicked, so the song is about a witch who decides to embrace the fact that she is not like the others and goes on her own path therefore, when she talks about defying gravity she really means shes flying on her broom around stage.... Now I'm not flying around a stage, and I doubt you are, but we can take a "flying" leap in to something new in our lives. At some point or another we all have to accept that we are different than "that group of people". The group of people that maybe we grew up with or tried to be like, we have to find the people like us and "fly" to them. I believe at some point we ALL have to leave something or some one(s) and take that "flying leap" to do whats best for us. We have to surround our selves with the people that support us, the people that let us fly, those that let us be who we are and who we need to be.
So before some one else comes in and needs the computer and I spend 10 minutes trying to remember what i was saying..... When change comes your way, embrace it and take the flying leap towards what ever you want. <3
