Down Like Me
Unveiling the Dark Dance of Desire: Down Like Me
Lyrics
I have been, inside you war zone
I have experienced the challenges within your personal struggles or conflicts.
And I've seen, you drop your poison
I've witnessed you succumbing to harmful habits or behaviors.
You compromise the steal
You compromise your integrity for personal gain.
Telling people how you feel
You share your emotions with others, but it may not be genuine or authentic.
Though it's not a bit for real
Your expressions may lack sincerity or truthfulness.
But the dollar it gives you wills
The pursuit of money motivates your actions, despite potential negative consequences.
And you're longing to be free
You desire freedom, but there are obstacles in your way.
But no one brings me down, like me
You acknowledge that no external force affects you as profoundly as your own actions.
No one brings me down like me
You emphasize the self-destructive nature within yourself.
Have you heard? When greed meets hunger
There is a negative impact when the desire for wealth meets intense hunger or ambition.
How absurd, the weak is stronger
The imbalance of power favors the weaker side in an ironic way.
Cause when they are satisfied
Once desires are fulfilled, there's a moment of satisfaction.
They sigh and wipe their mouth
People move on, but your situation seems more complex and burdensome.
And they sleep til they awake
Others rest peacefully, while your concerns persist.
But for you there's too much at stake
For you, there's too much at risk to find peace in sleep.
You have to plan the next big break
You are constantly planning the next significant move or endeavor.
You rest when you are dead like me
Resting is only possible when death occurs, indicating a relentless lifestyle.
Rest when you are dead, like me
Reiterating the idea that rest is only achievable in death.
Down like me
The repeated phrase emphasizes the self-destructive nature highlighted earlier.
Down like me
Reiteration of the self-destructive nature, emphasizing the personal struggle.
No one brings me down down down
Repeated emphasis on the self-destructive nature, expressing a sense of inevitability.
Down like me
-Down like me
-Down like me
-Down like me
-Down like me
A final repetition underscoring the central theme of self-destruction.
