Sangtekst med mening

Denne uka skal vi ha om sangtekster. Jeg har da valgt sangen The climb - Miley Cyrus. Her er teksten:



I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming but
There's a voice inside my head sayin,
You'll never reach it,
Every step I'm taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what?s waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing,
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm going to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It's all about
It's all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

Den handler om at man må alltid klatre etter sine egne drømmer, og man må ta seg tid til å oppfylle sine største livsmål. Man må tro på seg selv. Denne sangen får meg til å tenke på hva jeg egentlig vil gjøre med livet.
Den formidler håp og glede, men samtidig litt sorg. Man må ikke ha noen spesiell forutsetning for å kunne forstå meningen i denne teksten. Gjennom nesten hele sangen er det annenhverlinje rim, mens refrenget har ikke noe rim.
Musikken er rolig men bygger seg opp, i likhet med teksten. Akkurat når teksten bryter ut kommer det en raskere rytme i musikken. Det ligger ingen samfunnskritikk spesielt i teksten, mest om enkeltpersoner selv. Det er indirekte samfunnskritikk i at det er mange kamper man må kjempe selv i vårt samfunn.
