Lyrics
Rode a million miles to shed my skin
Rode a million miles to undergo a profound transformation.
I can’t say much about the state I’m in
Unable to provide much information about the current state or condition.
There was a million trials, by fire to win
Faced numerous challenges and trials, symbolized by fire, to achieve victory.
I can’t say much about where I been
Limited ability to disclose details about the past and experiences.
Who I seen, shed my skin, what I mean, who I am
Reflection on personal growth, experiences, identity, and shedding old layers.
All that pain, in the tortured brain
Expressing emotional and mental pain within the tortured mind.
The bodies, the death toll
Reference to the toll of death and suffering endured.
The last question, resurrection
Posing the ultimate question about resurrection and life after death.
My spirit black as coal
Describing a spirit tainted by darkness or negativity.
The mirror reflects, what’s impossible to detect
The mirror reflects something that is impossible to perceive or understand.
The ever growing hole inside my soul
Describing a growing emptiness or void within the soul.
With all due respect, not to destroy or infect
Expressing the intention not to harm or contaminate.
The missing piece that makes my spirit whole
Highlighting the missing element necessary for spiritual completeness.
Hole in my soul
Repetition of the phrase "Hole in my soul" as a central theme.
Turned a million smiles, upside down
Transformed many positive experiences into negative ones.
Don’t know much about this border town
Unfamiliar with or detached from a particular border town.
I could taste the bile, can you scratch my itch
Feeling bitterness or resentment, metaphorically expressed as tasting bile.
And I’d be obliged if you throw the switch
Requesting assistance or favor, using the metaphor of throwing a switch.
Scratch my itch, throw the switch
Reiteration of the desire for relief or help.
Shed my skin and throw the switch
Connecting the act of shedding skin with seeking assistance.
No pity on this lonesome outlaw
No sympathy for an isolated and rebellious individual.
Who rides across your land
A lone outlaw traveling through a territory.
With a leather face and the devil’s grin
Description of a menacing appearance with a devilish grin.
You can see right through me
Alluding to transparency or vulnerability, allowing others to see through.
I’m a bad man
Self-acknowledgment as a morally questionable individual.
