| Guns N' Roses – Back Off Bitch Lyrics | 7 years ago |
|
Axl explained in an interview that this song is about his grandmother feeding him negativity about men. From Rolling Stones Interview in 1992 But “Back Off Bitch” is a ten-year-old song. I’ve been doing a lot of work and found out I’ve had a lot of hatred for women. Basically, I’ve been rejected by my mother since I was a baby. She’s picked my stepfather over me ever since he was around and watched me get beaten by him. She stood back most of the time. Unless it got too bad, and then she’d come and hold you afterward. She wasn’t there for me. My grandmother had a problem with men. I’ve gone back and done the work and found out I overheard my grandma going off on men when I was four. And I’ve had problems with my own masculinity because of that. I was pissed off at my grandmother for her problem with men and how it made me feel about being a man. So I wrote about my feelings in the songs. |
