Life's deepest struggles and the journey through darkness to redemption take center stage in this powerful ballad. The lyrics explore the aftermath of a profound loss or heartbreak, likely the end of a significant relationship, where only one person "walks away." Despite being in the depths of despair, the narrator maintains hope through the metaphor of a "humble seed" that will eventually grow. The song captures the tension between surrendering to darkness and finding the strength to persevere, with the recurring promise "I will rise again" serving as a mantra of resilience. Through poetic imagery of light and darkness, cold planes and seeds of growth, Sade articulates the universal experience of navigating through life's unknown territories while holding onto the promise of renewal. #Resilience #RisingAgain #InnerStrength
The Big Unknown
Lyrics
Only love could bring us
Bring us to this bitter plane
And only one of us who's gonna walk away
Here in the deep below
That only darkness really knows
I'm hoping for a humble seed to grow
No I won't surrender to this hard hearted night
Though I know the sun's gonna bring the palest of light
And all that remains
Is everything that's gone
This life is mine so I'll carry on
I'm just trying to hold on
I'm falling in the dark below
I feel I'm falling in the big unknown
Here in the deep below
I will rise
I will rise again
A humble seed will grow
I have to go back to pull me from the wreck
I know it's not over yet
There's no fire and no flame on this cold cold plane
And no way to measure my pain
I'm just trying to hold on
I'm falling in the dark below
I feel I'm falling in the big unknown
I will rise
I will rise
I will rise again
The humble seed will grow
