Lyrics

(Feel it)

Expressing a sensation, possibly intense or emotional.

Stop drop roll get up take a crack at me

An invitation or challenge to engage in a confrontation or conflict.

(You look at me you look at me)

Acknowledging the act of being observed.

Like every other mother fucker

Comparing the observer to others encountered recently.

That I've seen today

Emphasizing the commonality in the observed behavior.


(you wanna hurt me

Perceived intent to cause emotional or physical harm.

Like I've never been hurt right now)

Describing the desire for pain similar to past experiences.

Feel it (now-stop) come again (now)

Encouraging a repeated experience of the described feelings.

Feel it (right-now)

Reiterating the desire for immediate sensation.


Show me just one thing

Requesting evidence or guidance to halt the progression of time.

To help me make the day stop moving (slowly)

Seeking a solution to cease the perceived slow pace of the day.

Show me the only

Asking for the singular thing that can break the influence of control.

Thing that'll make you stop controlling

Highlighting the desired outcome of liberation from external influence.

(Then you'll see how-now)

Anticipating the revelation of a solution.


Give up every second for the one shot left in me

Sacrificing every moment for a final opportunity or chance.

(You look at me and now you see)

Observing the impact on the observer after taking decisive action.

How I took the real from you fucker 'cause You had so much to say

Explaining the act of reclaiming authenticity from the observer.


(You wanted me you got me right here right now)

Acknowledging the achieved presence in the confrontation.

Feel it (now-stop) drop again (now) see it

Encouraging a repetition of the described sensations.

(right-now) I'm coming in

Expressing determination or imminent action.

(why can't you just)

Questioning the reluctance to act or respond.


Show me just one thing

Repeating the request for a solution to interrupt the day's progression.

To help me make the day stop moving (slowly)

Reiterating the need to stop the perceived slow pace.

Show me the only

Restating the desire for a liberating force against control.

Thing that'll make you stop controlling

Emphasizing the importance of the identified solution.


Why can't I just start over?

Expressing a desire for a fresh start or new beginning.

It's like I'm rolling over

Comparing the situation to surrendering or giving in.

Don't wanna be the one to bleed (not me)

Rejecting the role of being the one to suffer or be victimized.

It's like I'm mourning over the death of me (no)

Comparing the situation to mourning one's own demise.

It's like I'm rolling over

Repeating the reluctance to be the victim in the described scenario.

Not me, not me (not me, not me, not)

Emphatically rejecting the role of the victim.


Show me just one thing

Restating the request for a solution to halt the day's progression.

To help me make the day stop moving (slowly)

Reiterating the need for a liberating force against control.

Show me the only

Emphasizing the importance of the identified solution.

Thing that'll make you stop controlling

Highlighting the necessity of breaking free from external influence.
