Lyrics
You still believe their stories
You are still influenced by the stories they tell.
About origin and race
These stories involve discussions about origin and race.
You feel alienated
You experience a sense of alienation.
And fear runs your brain
Fear dominates your thoughts and decisions.
And they always make it easy
Others make it simple for you to harbor hatred towards different individuals.
To hate someone else
The ease of blaming someone else for problems is emphasized.
And to blame them for nothing
Blaming others is more accessible than acknowledging your own mistakes.
But your own mistakes
There is a recognition of personal mistakes.
I don’t want to be like you
Expressing a desire not to adopt the negative qualities of others.
I don’t want to be like you
Repetition for emphasis - reaffirming the rejection of certain traits.
I should believe in honey
Consideration of the idea of believing in goodness represented by "honey flowing down from walls."
Flowing down from my walls
Imagery of a positive and nurturing environment.
I should believe in human nature
An acknowledgment of the concept of human nature, though skepticism is present.
But I really don't
Expressing a lack of genuine belief in the inherent goodness of human nature.
Don’t you see we get tricked
Recognition of being deceived, possibly by powerful and wealthy individuals.
By the wealthy and the rich
Acknowledging the influence of the wealthy and the rich in societal deception.
They press your head in the mud
Metaphorical description of oppression - pressing one's head in the mud.
But you keep your mouth shut
Despite oppression, maintaining silence or compliance.
I don’t want to be like you
Reiteration of the rejection of undesirable qualities in others.
I don’t want to be like you
Emphasizing the determination not to emulate negative traits.
Who ever said it would be easy
Questioning the expectation of easiness in life.
Who ever said it would be fine
Challenging the notion that life would be fine or trouble-free.
Who’s gonna wipe out all that poison
Raising a question about addressing and eliminating the negative influences (poison) in one's mind.
That has grown inside your mind
Highlighting the presence and growth of harmful elements within the mind.
