KNIFE TO A GUNFIGHT
Priced Out of Life: Confronting Society's Unseen Battles
Lyrics
Information overload, these thoughts i can't decode
Feeling overwhelmed by excessive information, struggling to understand these thoughts.
Bouncing around me like an echo
The thoughts are persistent, echoing around the person like an inescapable sound.
Their words shoot thru my skull, another line they crossed
Words penetrate deeply, crossing a line and suggesting malicious intent hidden by distractions.
Ill intent that's shrouded with strobes, so nobody knows
Deceptive intentions concealed amidst chaotic distractions, making it difficult for anyone to discern.
Crash through the revolving door
Entering a challenging situation or environment.
Even worse than what came before
The situation is even worse than what was experienced before.
No progress in this nightmare
No improvement in this nightmarish scenario.
Priced out of life, take a knife to a gunfight
Feeling excluded from a meaningful life, resorting to desperate measures in a seemingly impossible situation.
Trampled to death, covering faces so that they'll remain anonymous
Being figuratively trampled, with anonymity preserving the perpetrators.
Telling us to control all our urges, sat down while the army converges
Instructions to suppress natural instincts while a powerful force gathers.
Take my money, take the clothes off my back, god knows i'd give you anything,
Willing to sacrifice material possessions for a cause, believing the other party will take everything.
Cause i know you'll take everything, price me out of life, death and rights, can't survive
Feeling priced out of life, with survival seeming impossible as society crumbles.
(While society collapses)
Observing the collapse of society.
Crash through the revolving door
Repeating the challenging entrance into a situation.
Even worse than what happened before
The situation is deteriorating further than the previous occurrence.
No progress in this nightmare
No positive change in the ongoing nightmare.
Priced out of life, take a knife to a gunfight
Continuing to feel excluded from life, resorting to desperate measures in an unwinnable situation.
False hope. No joke.
An expression of false hope, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation.
Tight choke at the end of the rope
A metaphorical tight choke symbolizing a dire situation nearing its end.
Protect the few, sheltered from view
Protecting a privileged few from public awareness.
Priced out of life, take a knife to a gunfight
Feeling priced out of life and resorting to desperate measures in a seemingly unwinnable situation.
We can't let them win
A rallying cry to resist the opposing force.
Crash through the revolving door
Repeating the challenging entrance into a situation.
Even worse than what came before
The situation is even worse than what was experienced before.
No progress in this nightmare
No progress in the ongoing nightmare.
Priced out of life, take a knife to a gunfight
Continuing to feel excluded from life, resorting to desperate measures in an apparently unwinnable situation.
False hope. No joke.
An expression of false hope, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation.
Tight choke at the end of the rope
A metaphorical tight choke symbolizing a dire situation nearing its end.
Protect the few, sheltered from view
Protecting a privileged few from public awareness.
Priced out of life, take a knife to a gunfight
Feeling priced out of life and resorting to desperate measures in a seemingly unwinnable situation.
