Lyrics

Yo it seems they got me

Feeling trapped or caught in a difficult situation

In a tight spot

Facing a challenging circumstance

And I'm out of moves

Out of options or strategies

Sure should of have wised up

Regret for not making smarter choices

Cause this is chess son

Metaphorically comparing the situation to a game of chess

So you gotta choose

Emphasizing the need to make a crucial decision

Oh

Expression of surprise or realization

Do you wanna be

Presenting a choice between two contrasting outcomes

The woeful tragedy

Being a part of a sad and unfortunate story

Or the Devil May Care!

Choosing a carefree and reckless attitude

Yeah, yeah

Reiteration of the choice presented

I fought a way out

Successfully finding a way out of a predicament

But left a trail of

Leaving behind a trail of emotions – love, loss, and pain

Love, loss and pain yeah

Reflecting on past experiences

Tender no more

No longer gentle or delicate

And always at war

Constantly engaged in conflict

With every little thing

Struggling with every aspect of life

Now come on

Encouraging a decision to be made

Do you wanna to be

Reiteration of the choice between tragedy and carelessness

The woeful tragedy

Repeating the consequences of a sad story or fate

Or the Devil May Care!

Reaffirming the choice of a devil-may-care attitude

Yeah, Yeah

Reiteration of the previous lines

Stop reaping the seeds we sow

Advising against harvesting the negative consequences of actions

And go right back

Suggesting a return to a proper place or state

To where you belong

Advising to stop causing harm or disturbance

Stop reaping the seeds we sow

Repeating the call to cease negative consequences

No why don't you just leave us alone

Urging someone to leave others alone

Stop reaping the seeds we sow

Reiterating the plea to stop causing harm

And go right back

Suggesting a return to a proper place or state

To where you belong

Repeating the call to cease negative consequences

Oh stop reaping the seeds we sow

Urging someone to stop causing harm

No why don't you just leave us

Emphasizing the desire for others to be left alone

Why don't you just leave us

Repeating the plea for solitude

Why don't you just leave us alone

Reiteration of the request for isolation

Stop reaping the seeds we sow

Encouraging a return to a proper place or state

And go right back

Repeating the call to cease negative consequences

To where you belong

Urging someone to leave others alone

Stop reaping the seeds we sow

Reiterating the plea to stop causing harm

No why don't you just leave us alone

Suggesting a return to a proper place or state

Stop reaping the seeds we sow

Repeating the call to cease negative consequences

And go right back

Urging someone to stop causing harm

To where you belong

Emphasizing the desire for others to be left alone

Oh stop reaping the seeds we sow

Repeating the plea for solitude

No why don't you just leave us

Reiteration of the request for isolation

Why don't you just leave us

Repeating the plea for others to be left alone

Why don't you just leave us alone

Final plea for solitude and non-interference
