“Bigger Than My Body”
By: John Mayer
This is a call to the colorblind
This is an IOU
I’m stranded behind the horizon line
tied up in something tied up in something true
yes i’m grounded
got my wings clipped
i’m surrounded
by all this pavement
guess i’ll circle
while i’m waiting
for my fuse to dry
someday i’ll fly,
someday i’ll soar
someday i’ll be so damn much more
‘cuz i’m bigger than my body gives me credit for
why is it not my time
what is there more to learn
ive shed this skin i’ve been tripping in
never to quite return
yes i’m grounded
got my wings clipped
i’m surrounded
by all this pavement
guess i’ll circle
while i’m waiting
for my fuse to dry
someday i’ll fly,
someday i’ll soar
someday i’ll be so damn much more
‘cuz i’m bigger than my body gives me credit for
cuz i’m bigger than my body now
(guitar solo)
maybe, i’ll tangle in the power lines
and it might be over in a seconds time
but i’ll glady go down in a flame if a flames what it takes to remember my name
yes i’m grounded
got my wings clipped
i’m surrounded
by all this pavement
guess i’ll circle
while i’m waiting
for my fuse to dry
someday i’ll fly,
someday i’ll soar
someday i’ll be so damn much more
‘cuz i’m bigger than my body gives me credit for
terkadang kita punya masalah, terkadang kita merasa seakan terhukum, atau merasa gagal! kita merasa tidak bisa terbang lagi, tidak bisa melayang lagi karena kegagalan kita, mungkin dengan posisi seperti itu kita merasa bukan siapa-siapa, minder gagal, kehilangan asa dan menyerah untuk bertarung, tapi tidak untuk John Mayer dalam lagu ini, dia berkata yes i’m grounded, got my wings clipped, i’m surrounded, by all this pavement, guess i’ll circle, while i’m waiting, for my fuse to dry but someday i’ll fly, someday i’ll soar someday i’ll be so damn much more ‘cuz i’m bigger than my body gives me credit for…
saya boleh kalah, saya boleh terkekang, saya boleh gagal, tapi saya nanti akan terbang lagi, akan meng-angkasa lagi, dan saya akan menjadi jauh lebih dari saya, karena saya lebih “besar” dari tubuh saya!
ugh! dalem…! lagu ini memotivasi banget! apalagi pas saya lagi down, boleh badan saya kecil tapi saya lebih besar dari badan saya. c’mon man! inside of us we’ve got bigger body than ourself discover & realize it! and fly and soar!!!
maybe, i’ll tangle in the power lines, and it might be over in a seconds time, but i’ll glady go down in a flame if a flames what it takes to remember my name. mungkin dalam perjalananku aku akan tersangkut dan tersengat listrik di tiang listrik, aku akan terbakar dan terjatuh, tapi aku akan terbakar dan jatuh dengan kebanggaan dan kelak orang akan mengingat namaku dengan api kejatuhanku…
so deep! so fighter! itu tuh perkataan pejuang! semangat! SEMANGAT! WE ARE BIGGER THAN OUR BODY!!! KEEP ON FIGHT!
