HIGH VALLEY

- Somebody Like Me Lyrics

That congregation parted like the red sea
When that old drunk stumbled in down the aisle and took seat
Right in the middle of amazing grace
He could feel the judgment that they were passing
Thought to himself, ain't that just like a bunch of Baptists
He'd rather be on the street than in this place, with tears on his face

You'd think somebody would put their arm around him
You'd think somebody would hit a knee
Pull him in say a prayer
You think somebody would practice what they're preaching
I wonder who that somebody might be
Probably somebody like me

Well he's got problems nobody wants a part of
When he got up and slipped out nobody stood up
They don't want to make a scene so they let him walk out of there
Without a prayer

You'd think somebody would do something different
You'd think somebody would go against the grain
Be the one to run him down, bring him back and turn him around
You think somebody would want to make a difference
I wonder who that somebody might be
Probably somebody like me

What is the meaning behind Somebody Like Me lyrics?


When we interpret the meaning being expressed, High Valley's 'Somebody Like Me' is a song that narrates the experiences of a person who walks into a church looking for love and support but is instead rejected and ignored by the church members. The words capture the difference between the qualities of mercy and comprehension that are being taught at the church and the non-existent response to a person's need, stressing the significance of doing what one preaches and being the change they want to see in society. The lyrics of Somebody like me mostly highlight something like inspiration, social commentary, empowerment, despair, and hope. Nevertheless, the song still puts the focus on the issues of judgment and acceptance, compassion and action, as well as the individual’s responsibility. Judgement and social issues are among the themes that are present in the lyrics, and thus, they might not be suitable for very young children to listen to without having someone older around to explain. Although there are no direct mentions of violence, sex, or drug use, the heavy emotional aspect of the topic might lead parents to think about whether it is safe for their younger kids or not.
