Lazarus (feat. This'l)

Trip Lee's song 'Lazarus (feat. This'l)' is a powerful narrative of spiritual resurrection and transformation. The title itself is a direct reference to the biblical story of Lazarus, who was raised from the dead by Jesus Christ. This metaphor of rising from the grave is used throughout the song to symbolize a profound personal and spiritual awakening. Trip Lee describes his past life as one of spiritual death, where he was metaphorically 'six feet deep,' but through the power of Christ, he has been brought back to life.

The lyrics vividly depict the disbelief and astonishment of those around him, who cannot comprehend how someone who was once 'dead' is now alive and thriving. This transformation is not just a physical revival but a complete renewal of the soul. The imagery of being buried in a black suit and tie, only to wake up 'looking fly,' emphasizes the dramatic change and the new life that Trip Lee now embodies. The repeated refrain 'From now on you can call me Lazarus' reinforces his new identity as someone who has been resurrected and redeemed.

The song also serves as an encouragement to others who may feel spiritually dead or lost. Trip Lee reminds listeners of the power of Christ to bring life to the lifeless and hope to the hopeless. The reference to 'dead men don’t talk, tell lies or truth' underscores the finality of death, but also the miraculous nature of his revival. The song concludes with a call to action for believers to remember the power of Christ, especially during tough times, and to hold on to the hope of resurrection and redemption. This message of hope and transformation is central to Trip Lee's musical style, which often blends personal testimony with broader spiritual themes.
