This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
One single dose of your medicine
You tell me to leave but I come back again
I don't see what all the fuss is about 'cause I'm okay
Soon you will see that I got ability to get my ways
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
Don't keep me in the the dark 'cause I'll find the light (don't don't don't)
I said don't keep in the dark 'cause I'll find the light (find the light)
Don't keep in the dark, don't keep in the dark
I was alone until I found Johnny
He was a good boy until he got behind me
No she didn't, yes she did!
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
Don't keep me in the the dark 'cause I'll find the light (don't don't don't)
I said don't keep in the dark 'cause I'll find the light (find the light)
Don't keep in the dark, don't keep in the dark
They told me to get my motherfuckin' hands up
But I was handcuffed to the bed and couldn't get em up
I'm your sunshine, sunrise (you're my sunshine)
You make it sound easily for me to cry (so easily for me to cry)
I'm your sunshine, come get by
My fears go black in the moonlight
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
Don't keep me in the the dark 'cause I'll find the light (don't don't don't)
I said don't keep in the dark 'cause I'll find the light (find the light)
I said don't keep in the, I said don't keep in the dark
I get away with it, I get away it
Ah
I get away with it, I get away it
They say I get away with murder
They say I get away with murder
They say I get away with murder
You tell me to leave but I come back again
I don't see what all the fuss is about 'cause I'm okay
Soon you will see that I got ability to get my ways
So don't keep me in the dark 'cause I'll the find the light (find the light)
Don't keep me in the the dark 'cause I'll find the light (don't don't don't)
I said don't keep in the dark 'cause I'll find the light (find the light)
Don't keep in the dark, don't keep in the dark

He helping me get it off, he helping me get it off
I got a monkey on my back
