Dirty Water
Unveiling the Poison: Trent Thompson's Reflection on Society's Dirty Water
Lyrics
I lift my head say a prayer for a righteous man
I express concern and pray for a virtuous man.
I bow my heart for the woman that will meet his hand
I show reverence for the woman who will experience his actions.
And For the children of a lost man
My thoughts are with the children of a man who is lost.
They’re drinking dirty water
People are consuming contaminated water.
Choking on your Words
They are suffocating due to the impact of hurtful words.
Poisoned by the well
The well is poisoned, causing harm to those who rely on it.
You’ve got them drinking from
People are influenced negatively, consuming harmful information.
They’re drinking dirty water
Continued consumption of polluted water.
Drinking dirty water
Repeated emphasis on the consumption of contaminated water.
Feeding them lies
Spreading falsehoods and deceit.
I left my change on the table where I met his lies
I leave evidence of my presence where dishonesty exists.
The blind man screams I got the cure that can fix your eyes
A metaphorical blind person claims to have a solution for clarity.
And got the key to the free life
Possession of the key to a liberated life.
They’re drinking dirty water
Reiteration of people consuming polluted water.
Choking on your Words
Experiencing difficulties due to hurtful words.
Poisoned by the well
Being harmed by misinformation originating from a contaminated source.
You’ve got them drinking from
Continued influence from a harmful origin.
They’re drinking dirty water
Perseverance in consuming polluted water.
Drinking dirty water
Reiteration of the act of consuming contaminated water.
Feeding them lies
Further spreading of lies and deceit.
Sticks and stones are braking bones
Physical harm caused by objects, contrasting with the harm caused by words.
But words are killing souls
Highlighting the destructive impact of hurtful words on the soul.
Sticks and stones are breaking bones
Repetition of the contrast between physical harm and harm caused by words.
You’re killing everyone you love
Recognition of the widespread harm caused by hurtful words.
Sticks and stones are breaking bones
Reiteration of the contrast between physical harm and harm caused by words.
but your words are killing souls
Acknowledgment that words can inflict harm on the soul.
Sticks and stones are braking bones
Repetition of the contrast between physical harm and the unseen impact on the heart.
You can’t see their heart
The inability to perceive the inner feelings of others.
I know your blinded by your hate
Acknowledgment of being blinded by hatred.
I know your blinded by your fate
Acknowledgment of being blinded by one's destiny or predetermined path.
They’re drinking dirty water
Repetition of the theme of people consuming polluted water.
Drinking dirty water
Continued ingestion of contaminated water.
Feeding them Lies
Persistence in spreading falsehoods and deceit.
They’re drinking dirty water
Continued consumption of polluted water.
Drinking dirty water
Reiteration of the act of consuming contaminated water.
Feeding them lies
Further spreading of lies and deceit.
While you’re dying inside
Simultaneously experiencing internal suffering while causing harm to others.
