As the rain, keeps pouring down on me
And the sky is the only thing I see
And my troubles are gone with the wind
It's just me, and the ground beneath my feet
I feel so alive
Oh, I feel so alive
Oh, I feel so alive...
Oh, I feel so alive...
As the rain, keeps falling down on me
And my shadow is the only thing I see
All my troubles are gone with the wind
It's just me, and the ground beneath my feet
I feel so alive...
Oh, I feel so alive...
Bones to bones
They can bring their guns
I'm at war with the world
There is no where to run, no
Chest to chest
You can, run if you want
I've come too far, oh I'm not gonna lose
I feel so alive (I feel so alive)
Oh, I feel so alive (I feel so alive)
Oh, I feel so alive... (I feel so alive)
Oh, I feel so alive...
Oh, I feel so alive... (I feel so alive)
Bones to bones
They can bring their guns
I'm at war with the world
There is no where to run, no
Chest to chest
You can run if you want
I've come too far, oh I'm not gonna lose
I feel so alive
About This Song
"Alive" by Chase & Status is a transcendent electronic anthem that explores the profound liberation found in moments of complete solitude and surrender to nature's forces. The track, featuring Jacob Banks' soulful vocals, uses the metaphor of standing alone in the rain as a form of spiritual cleansing and rebirth-where external troubles literally wash away, leaving only the essential connection between self and earth. The lyrics reveal a paradoxical truth: that feeling most alone can simultaneously make us feel most alive, suggesting that authentic vitality comes not from external validation but from stripping away societal pressures and reconnecting with our core being. Chase & Status craft a sonic landscape that mirrors this emotional journey, building from sparse, atmospheric beginnings into a euphoric drum and bass crescendo that captures the rush of this existential awakening. Banks' vocals soar with gospel-influenced intensity, transforming what could be a melancholic scene into a celebration of human resilience and presence. The production's interplay between delicate piano melodies and thunderous basslines reflects the contrast between vulnerability and strength that defines the song's emotional core. "Alive" resonated deeply with listeners because it articulated a universal experience-those rare moments when we feel completely present and connected to something larger than ourselves, often occurring in our most solitary states. The track became a standout on "Brand New Machine" by proving that electronic music could carry profound emotional weight while maintaining dancefloor appeal.
