Fort Minor – Slip Out The Back Lyrics 14 years ago
The lyrics are really not too symbolic in this song, as much as I love the meaningfulness behind them, and the way it's all put together.

It's simply about Mike self-identifying with a kid who shared his view of life in a certain way. A kid who told him that it's best to leave before someone gets hurt (or everything just goes to hell in a handbasket); at best you succeed, and spare them (or yourself) the pain that would've been caused; at worst you'll see nobody cares that you even left.

Probably one of the most seriously underrated songs of all time.
