Savior
Andrew Ripp's 'Savior' uses metaphorical language to describe finding spiritual meaning in everyday encounters. The song references a savior on an airplane, Jesus on a city street, and a father figure, suggesting that divine presence can be experienced in unexpected places. The repeated refrain 'I know where I'm goin' when I'm gone' expresses confidence in an afterlife. While the lyrics are not explicitly Christian in a traditional sense, they convey themes of salvation and assurance. The song's acoustic live performance emphasizes its intimate, reflective tone.
I found my savior on an airplane
She gave me fever like a hurricane
Honestly she's some kind of overwhelming
I can't begin to explain
I found my savior on an airplane today
I found my Jesus on a city street
He gave me freedom through a trash can beat, honestly he got
Some kind of symphony
Soul, choir and timpani
I found my Jesus on a city street
Don't worry bout me none
Don't worry bout me, son
Don't worry bout me cuz
I know where I'm goin' when I'm gone
Don't worry bout me none
Don't worry bout me, son
Don't worry bout me cuz
I know where I'm goin' when I'm gone
I found my father when I was seventeen
In Carolina with a part of me
Don't matter what he done
I'm still his only son
I found my father when I was seventeen
Don't worry bout me none
Don't worry bout me, son
Don't worry bout me cuz
I know where I'm goin' when I'm gone
Don't worry bout me none
Don't worry bout me, son
Don't worry bout me cuz
I know where I'm goin' when I'm gone
