Represent Lyrics
A kid came up to me now just the other day
And asked me if I'd thought about what I would say
If everything came crashing down on top of me
How would I stay pure?
Will you represent
Who you stand for
Will they shame you
Will they blame you
It's funny how the words of a child can be
Simple, though the thought there is so meaningful
It makes me wonder what I would say to me
Through the eyes of another
Will you represent
Who you stand for
Will they shame you
Will they blame you
There's a consequence
For the path you chose
Will they change you
Will they make you who you are not
Let the free world light the way
In these times of darkened days
Let the free world light the way
You will represent
Who you stand for
They wont shame you
They wont change you
There's a consequence
For the path you chose
They can't change you
They can't make you who you are not
And asked me if I'd thought about what I would say
If everything came crashing down on top of me
How would I stay pure?
Who you stand for
Will they shame you
Will they blame you
Simple, though the thought there is so meaningful
It makes me wonder what I would say to me
Through the eyes of another
Who you stand for
Will they shame you
Will they blame you
For the path you chose
Will they change you
Will they make you who you are not
In these times of darkened days
Let the free world light the way
Who you stand for
They wont shame you
They wont change you
For the path you chose
They can't change you
They can't make you who you are not

Amazing song... the meanings pretty self explanatory. I think the new album's gunna be pretty sweet.

WOW. i think i like it. alot.
I absolutely love how RJA has put inspiration into their song meanings. In my opinion, I believe this song is about a person who is questioning his belief in God, and if he knows if he will Represent God and stand up for His name at crucial and painful times in his life. I love this song, and I admire that Red Jumpsuit was not afraid to add this to their album.
great song, I just got the album and was just listening to the songs, this song caught me attention!
I think this song is just about standing up for what you believe in. Standing up for your morals and not conforming to others. This song is definitely my favorite song off the new album
this song is really really beautiful and the meaning is quite obvious i think and very self explainatory.
This song really FOR ME. Talks about my relationship with God and really makes me know i have to Represent and be nice and kind to others at my very best. It's so funny how many songs help you. We represent the sky boys! When you make a mistake you make a mistake for all of us!
Much love.
i am glad this song is the type of music it is, it didnt resort to screaming or intensity, instead that is felt through winter's voice and in the lyrics, amazing song, and the next single, should be played on alt/pop stations alike.
It's NOT about god. I'm so sick of people adding religious factors into a non-religious singing band. It's really fucking obnoxious. Like Rush5 said, the song really is about not conforming for other people and being your own person, not picking friends that will change your life in a bad way. Think about it, it makes a lot more sense.
Quit being a douche. You don't know what the band wrote this song about. They probably wrote it so it could be interpreted in multiple ways, like a lot of bands do. Stating what you believe a song is about is not being obnoxious. You are the only obnoxious one here. Grow up and respect other people's opinions.

But i would agree with you it's kinda sad that they have fallen so far away but they r def in my prayers! You should check out their song Lonely Road. It kinda talks about God and how to do things right you have to walk alone!
