| System of a Down – Stealing Society Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
ok someone up there said something like why would Serj sing an anti drug song when he smokes dope. From what I've heard from various places is System are anti HARD drugs, and dope isn't hard. In the liner notes for the self-titled album it points out that dope is not as dangerous as alcohol or tobacco. Its the harder, more dangerous drugs they take issues with. Also someone said something "System rarely touch on religion" O.o ??? They do, a lot, just subtley. :) To me this song is how drugs can distort a persons mind and vision and I guess how the dude's seeing two of everything which is like a metaphor at the same time to him wanting to be sober but also wanting to enjoy the trip :) I specifically like the line "Crackpipes, needles, PCP and fast cars kind of mix really well in a dead movie star" which is basically the source of the anti-drug bit and saying basically look all these movie stars are dead from drugs and living life dangerous and stuff. |
