Children of Bodom – Hate Crew Deathroll Lyrics 17 years ago
I think that there is a message beyond the obvious fact that it reflects the band's attitude, I think Alexi denounces a selfish society, a degrading one, although very implicitly, and he implores us to get angry at that degradation and selfishness, we need to, he urges us to do it. We have to react, otherwise if what happens to others, or with society is indifferent to us, we become part of the disease, we lose our humanity by not giving a shit for others, we become part of the selfish degraded society, I think it's pretty clear:

If you don't know how to resent one another,
to gain the new way of power, ////////////////(this part I don't understand)
it'll get to the point where no one gives a fuck
what you may think of us or what you may not.

that's just that part,, for the rest well I think Alexi resents society, due to personal experience,, and surely for the violence and crime, his sensibility to the problems of society and maybe humanity in general are the cause of his anger... So in brief what I want to say is I think he refers to society in general, outside his circle of friends (COB) when he says:

Hey! Don't tell us what you want,
cuz we don't give a fuck about you and your kind.
You! You better take a step back where ever the fuck you came from.
No! You ain't one of us and to be tag along you're too ugly and blunt.
Why?! Is it so hard to get that we don't need you, stupid cunt!

But he states it, he'd rather be angry, hate, be human, than not give a fuck.
