Arch Enemy - We Will Rise Lyrics

The meaning of the song seems to be one that advocates the transcendence of normalacy; it rejects conformity. "In the sea of mediocrity" and "Nothing unique" plus "I can be anything I want to be" implies a real need to get outside what, perhaps, society (or our parents, friends, government, educational systems, etc.) want us to be - we are responisble for who and what we are/become (this is clearly existentialist philosophy, which most Europeans have been influenced by). We can't blame others for making us into something, because we had the ability and power to do what we wanted; whatever others did to us we allowed them to do - we must not point the finger but "rise above" what others want us to be; what we're told to be. We must be whatever we choose for ourselves - we must "tear down the walls" - probably an allusion to anything external that would seek to make and mold us into something we didn't choose ourselves - that hold us back from furthering ourselves via our own choice, not something influencing us. Again, this song really seems to hint around at not conforming to what others want us to be, want for us, but being responsible enough to decide these things for our self. "I am the enemy" shows us what we will become when begin to do this, "tear down the walls", free from others influence; we threaten to be a light for others to see that they, too, don't have to be influenced and "controlled" by others wants and wishes for us.
