Song Meaning of “Reflection” by Jackie Evancho
‘Reflection’ is a powerful song of self-reflection and inner-healing. Through the use of evocative lyrics and an incredibly powerful vocal delivery, Jackie Evancho gives voice to our need to heal and release generations of pain carried by ourselves and our ancestors.
The lyrics speak of one struggling to overcome a difficult time in life, feeling as if they are constantly weighed down by the pain of the past. They sing of needing to carry on despite those feelings, and reach a point of forgiveness and resolution in order to heal.
The song also speaks of something larger than themselves, a recognition of how our actions can have an effect on those who come after us, and how each of us can learn from the generations that have come before. Reflection is a call for us to take time to evaluate our lives and how we are affecting others, and to release old pain and find resolution to ensure our own healing and growth.
