I Against I
Resisting the Illusion: I Against I Unveils a Nation's Struggle
Lyrics
In the quest for the test to fulfill an achievement
In the pursuit of a challenge to prove one's worth
Everybody's only in it all for themselves
Everyone is solely focused on their own interests
When the fact of the matter is they just don't care
Despite the truth, people are indifferent
To extend a helping hand to anyone else
Unwilling to help others
So tell me why did you have to lie
Questioning why deception was necessary
And try to make me all confused about the U.S.A
An accusation of causing confusion about the USA
When the fact of the matter is you just don't care
Accusing someone of not caring about understanding
To comprehend or understand a single word I say
Lack of willingness to comprehend
I don't wanna have I go against I!
Refusal to engage in conflict against oneself
I don't wanna have I go against I!
Reiteration of the refusal to engage in internal conflict
Well let me tell you
Introduction to further thoughts
It's the same old story, no factual glory
A recurring narrative without genuine fame or recognition
I against I against I against I against I
Expression of internal conflict or self-struggle
And I say I don't like it and I know I don't want it
Declaring dislike and rejection of the internal conflict
I against I against I against I against I
Reiteration of internal conflict
Almighty watching, almighty watching
Awareness of being observed by a higher power
I against I against I against I against I
Continuation of internal struggle
And I say I don't like it and I know I don't want it
Rejection and disapproval of the inner conflict
I against I against I against I against I
Repeated expression of internal struggle
I said who's gonna tell the youth about the drugs
Questioning who will educate the youth about societal issues
About the drugs, mugs, bugs, and the police thugs
Mentions drugs, criminals, and corrupt law enforcement
About the rotten, stinkin' rackets and the fantasies
Highlighting societal decay and false ideals
Around the nation
Repetition emphasizing nationwide issues
Around the nation
-Oh, what you gonna do?
Rhetorical question about actions in the face of truth
I tell you the truth is looking straight at you
Rhetorical questioning about responding to the truth
Oh baby, baby what you gonna do?
-I tell you the truth is looking straight at you
-I got a brass continental with a 300 Z
Mentions material possessions and fantasies
I got a color TV with a video too
-I got a rest home in Jamaica with my fantasy for all my family
-Around the nation
Reiteration of nationwide family concerns
What you gonna do?
Repetitive questioning about actions
What you gonna do?
-What you gonna do?
-What you gonna do?
