It's All Happening

Saint Motel's song 'It's All Happening' is a celebration of overcoming challenges and embracing the present moment. The lyrics, 'I came, I saw, I conquered / Never got no prize,' reflect a journey of facing and defeating personal demons without necessarily receiving external validation. This line suggests a sense of internal victory and personal growth, emphasizing the importance of self-acknowledgment over external rewards.

The chorus, 'Now look around, it's beautiful / As far as we can see / The past has turned to history / And it's all happening, finally,' captures a moment of realization and appreciation for the present. The repetition of 'it's happening' underscores the excitement and fulfillment of living in the now, having moved past previous struggles. The phrase 'the past has turned to history' signifies a conscious decision to leave behind what once was and to focus on the beauty and opportunities of the current moment.

The second verse, 'Take five, take care, take cover / Here comes our chance / Find time, find friends, find lovers / Gotta make this last,' encourages listeners to seize the moment and cherish the connections and experiences that life offers. It speaks to the urgency of making the most out of life, finding joy in relationships, and creating lasting memories. Saint Motel's upbeat and optimistic tone throughout the song serves as a reminder to appreciate the journey and the present, celebrating the culmination of efforts and the beauty of the now.
