Beat It
Break Free: Unveiling the Resilient Spirit in 'Beat It'
Lyrics
They told him don't you ever come around here
He was warned not to visit or be present in this particular place
Don't wanna see your face you better disappear
They do not want to encounter or interact with him, so he should leave quickly
The fires in their eyes and their words aren't really clear
The people there have intense emotions (symbolized by "fires in their eyes"), but what they're communicating is unclear or ambiguous
Just beat it....
Advice to just leave the situation or back away
Just beat it....
Reiteration of the advice to depart or avoid confrontation
You better run you better do what you can...
Suggesting that it's better to flee or escape and do whatever is possible to avoid trouble
Don't wanna see no blood don't be macho man...
Warning against violence or aggression, advising not to act overly tough or aggressive
You wanna be tough better do what you can...
Encouragement to show toughness by handling the situation smartly rather than with brute force
So beat it...
Reiteration of the advice to leave or escape the situation
But you wanna be bad...
Even though there's a desire to act rebellious or contrary
Come on children!
Encouragement for the audience to participate or join in the message
Just beat it! (Beat it!)
Emphasizing the message to just leave or avoid conflict
Beat it! (Beat it!)
Repetition to "beat it," further stressing the advice to escape
No one wants to be defeated!
Asserting that no one desires to be conquered or overpowered
Show em how funky and strong is your fight!
Encouraging a display of strength and determination
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right!
Stating that the specifics of who's right or wrong aren't relevant in this context
Just beat it...
Reiteration of the advice to depart or avoid confrontation
Just beat it...
Continued emphasis on leaving or avoiding conflict
Just.... beat it...
Final insistence on leaving the situation or conflict
