Lyrics
They want you to crawl
There is a desire for submission or obedience.
And there is nothing you can do
Expresses a sense of helplessness or inability to resist external pressures.
No there is nothing we can do
Emphasizes collective powerlessness; a shared inability to change the situation.
I know what they ask for is not right
Recognition that the demands imposed are morally wrong.
You have to give up your way of life
Suggests a requirement to sacrifice one's lifestyle or beliefs.
We ve got to keep a low profile
Advocates maintaining a discreet or unobtrusive presence.
Crawl
Reiterates the call for submission or obedience.
These fools cannot conceive that a woman can have
Highlights the narrow-mindedness of certain individuals who cannot fathom a woman's independence.
Her own point of view her freedom to choose and decide
Expresses the importance of a woman's right to have her own perspective and make choices.
These fools cannot forgive you for using your own mind
Criticizes those who refuse to accept a woman's autonomy and punish her for independent thinking.
My love I beg you to obey their commands
A plea for a loved one to conform to societal expectations for safety, even if those expectations are unjust.
Cause if you confront them you will die by their hands
Forewarns of dire consequences if one challenges or opposes the societal norms.
Crawl just crawl
Reiteration of the command to submit or yield.
Put your career aside and swallow all your pride
Encourages sacrificing personal ambitions for the sake of conformity.
Just wear their bloody veil cause time has come to hide
Suggests a need to comply with oppressive traditions, even if it requires swallowing one's pride.
Just wear their bloody veil if you don't want to die
Emphasizes the urgency of conforming to societal expectations to avoid harm or death.
These fools want you to crawl
Repeats the idea that some individuals demand submission or subservience.
