Joy
Santana Chris Stapleton Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴Something on the inside
Comin' on strong
Everything wasn't right
Now I can do no wrong
All I was afraid of
Bringing me down
All the walls around love
Falling to the ground
Joy, rolling like the thunder rumbles (joy)
Time to let the teardrops tumble (joy)
Listen to the hatred crumble
Now that I have joy
Flying on the wings of angels (joy)
Rattling the chains untangled (joy)
I see me from a different angle
Now I have joy
Every single minute
And every hour
I'm drowning in it
And I can feel the power
And I keep on pushing
Through the good and the bad
And I believe
Because I have
Joy, rolling like the thunder rumbles (joy)
Time to let the teardrops tumble (joy)
Listen to the hatred crumble
Now that I have joy
Flying on the wings of angels (joy)
Rattling the chains untangled (joy)
I see me from a different angle
Now I have joy
Joy, rolling like the thunder rumbles (joy)
Time to let the teardrops tumble (joy)
Listen to the hatred crumble
Now that I have joy
Flying on the wings of angels (joy)
Rattling the chains untangled (joy)
I see me from a different angle
Now I have joy
(Joy)
(Joy) joy
(Joy) joy
(Joy)
(Joy) joy
(Joy) joy

Something on the inside
There is a feeling within me
Comin' on strong
It is becoming increasingly intense
Everything wasn't right
Previously, things were not going well
Now I can do no wrong
But now I feel confident and capable
All I was afraid of
I had fears and doubts
Bringing me down
That were holding me back
All the walls around love
I had barriers up that prevented me from experiencing love
Falling to the ground
But they have now been removed and love is coming in
Joy, rolling like the thunder rumbles (joy)
The feeling of joy is powerful and all-encompassing
Time to let the teardrops tumble (joy)
It's okay to cry tears of happiness
Listen to the hatred crumble
The negative feelings and emotions around me are dissipating
Now that I have joy
This newfound joy is the reason for the positive changes in my life
Flying on the wings of angels (joy)
This feeling of joy is lifting me up and making me feel as though I am soaring
Rattling the chains untangled (joy)
The things that were holding me back have been released
I see me from a different angle
I am seeing myself and the world around me in a new way
Every single minute
Every moment of every day
And every hour
Continuously
I'm drowning in it
I am completely immersed in this feeling
And I can feel the power
And it is empowering
And I keep on pushing
I am determined to continue on this path
Through the good and the bad
No matter what challenges come my way
And I believe
I have faith and trust in myself and the universe
(Joy)
The feeling of joy is so strong it needs no further explanation
(Joy) joy
The repetition emphasizes the strength of this feeling
(Joy) joy
As does the increasing number of times it is repeated

The feeling of joy is all-encompassing
(Joy) joy
I cannot express how strong this feeling is
(Joy) joy
It is changing everything in my life
