Preachers
Damned Perspectives: Unmasking Society's Judgments
Lyrics
There's a lot of preachers here but I don't see no saints
There are many people preaching here, but I don't perceive any individuals of exceptional moral character.
Lot of fingers pointing palms sweating under red paint
There are numerous individuals blaming others while feeling anxious and stressed beneath a facade of confidence.
All us curtain twitchers viewing pictures fling them windows wide
All of us, peeking through our curtains, observing and sharing images, open our windows widely. Is there any guilt within these non-reflective screens?
The screens unreflective no perspective is their guilt inside?
These screens do not offer any perspective; is their guilt concealed within?
feeling dead important in the comments takes like tss we're on fire
Feeling excessively important when commenting, it's like we're emitting sparks, as if we're ablaze.
Damned if they do damned if he don't
No matter what they do, they'll face condemnation; there's no escaping judgment.
Maybe she will what if I won't?
Uncertainty about the actions of others, contemplating one's own choices.
Quick punish each other don't discover the pattern repeat it
Swiftly punishing each other without understanding the recurring pattern, leading to repetition of mistakes.
Forget all the nuance cos we're fluent in carceral logic
Disregarding all subtleties because we are well-versed in punitive reasoning.
hold the women higher shoot them faster cos the men can't help it
Elevating women to higher standards but subjecting them to faster judgment as men seem incapable of helping it.
Damned if she do Damned if we don't
Regardless of what she does, condemnation awaits; a sense of no way out.
Damned if I do Damned if you don't
Experiencing condemnation regardless of personal actions, setting a trap of inevitable judgment.
I DON'T WANNA BE SAVED
Expressing a lack of desire to be rescued or guided by others.
I GUESS I'LL BE DAMNED
Accepting the possibility of facing damnation due to personal choices.
Mr sanctimony and his pony only know that one trick
Referring to a person of self-righteousness and their repetitive behavior, knowing only one method or ideology.
Calls it liberation mans his station never budges from it
Describing someone who claims to advocate freedom but remains fixed in their position, refusing to change.
Our mental exhaustion fuels their fortune in the silicon pit
Suggesting that our mental fatigue or weariness contributes to the profit of others, especially in the tech industry.
Damned if we do damned if they don't
No matter what 'we' do, they'll face condemnation, creating a cycle of judgment.
Maybe he will what if she won't?
Similar uncertainty but reversed roles, contemplating the actions of others.
Damned if you do Damned if I don't
Regardless of your actions, I'll be judged; a sense of unavoidable scrutiny.
I don't wanna be saved
Expressing a lack of desire to be saved or guided by others.
I guess I'll be damned
Accepting the possibility of facing damnation due to personal choices.
I guess I'll be damned
Repeated acceptance of the potential consequences of one's choices.
I guess I'll be..
Ending abruptly, leaving the sentence unfinished, possibly indicating ongoing contemplation or uncertainty.
