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.
Now what do you want from me?
When I've sacrificed my heart so you can be set free
And time will never cure this disease
I'm only left with tired arms to stop from drowning
This is loveless
Your love is hopeless
Do you you remember
On that night I couldn't find the words to say I'm sorry
If you recall that night you ripped my heart right out
Before saying I loved you
Do you believe is this?
Do you believe in me?
If you believe in love
Would you believe in me?
So what will you take from me?
I'm the man with out a soul, a soul for you to seek
And time will never cure your disease
I'm only left with tired arms to stop from drowning.
Believe in me
I've emptied my soul
Believe in me.
I've killed this disease now
Time to shatter your heart
Bring you to your knees
I've found the strength to fight on
And stop the bleeding
You're killing, you're not the same to me now got to kill to believe
When I've sacrificed my heart so you can be set free
And time will never cure this disease
I'm only left with tired arms to stop from drowning
This is loveless
Your love is hopeless
Do you you remember
On that night I couldn't find the words to say I'm sorry
If you recall that night you ripped my heart right out
Before saying I loved you
Do you believe is this?
Do you believe in me?
If you believe in love
Would you believe in me?
So what will you take from me?
I'm the man with out a soul, a soul for you to seek
And time will never cure your disease
I'm only left with tired arms to stop from drowning.
Believe in me
I've emptied my soul
Believe in me.
I've killed this disease now
Time to shatter your heart
Bring you to your knees
I've found the strength to fight on
And stop the bleeding
You're killing, you're not the same to me now got to kill to believe

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

ow man, this song is amazing and the lyrics too, beautiful
duck man, I just got the album today. its so goddmn good !
beautiful song indeed.
i think it's about two people who were very much in love at one time. he fucked up something and he's saying he's sorry for hurting her and he still loves her. she says she loves him too but she's still pissed off, and he doesn't know what to do to make her forgive him so he's like giving up. he's like fuck you if you don't accept my apology i'm moving on.
this has gotta be 1 of the best bleeding through songs ever!!!
i rekkon its about a guy who gave his all 4 this chick "I've sacrificed my heart so you can be set free"
then he went and did something so bad but he just couldnt manage 2 apologize "On that night I couldnt find the words to say I'm sorry"
so she left without saying she loved him "you ripped my heart right out before saying i loved you"
now he feels the only escape is murder "time to shatter your heart bring you to your knees" "got to kill to believe"
its probably wrong but thats what i think anyway...
Imo, i think its about that he've done something stupid,and for that his girl makes him pay,like acting hurt just to hurt him.. Thats whats the first 21 lines in the above lyrcs are about. The final ones are about him "countering" this, thinking like "fuck this, its ben going on for to long" or "This is loveless Your love is hopeless".. Anyone getting my point?
I think the beginning is eluding to the fact that she doesn't want to try and the entire relationship is basically resting on his shoulders. And relationships are not a one person thing.
"This is loveless Your love is hopeless"
Yeah, he loves her but she will NEVER love him
"Do you you remember On that night I couldnt find the words to say I'm sorry"
I don't think he did anything wrong but he is probably saying the reason that she doesn't love him is his fault so he is apologizing. "I'm sorry this is all my fault that this didn't work out."
But at the time he couldnt say that, he was shocked and in disbelief it was all coming to an end.
Which is not true, the relationship was doomed from the beginning. Why?
Because she never loved him!
"If you recall that night you ripped my heart right out"
She finally told him she doesn't love him
"Before saying i loved you" She tries to ease his pain by saying something like, "We can still be friends" but obviously thats not going to work. He is in love with her. Remember - Before.
"Do you believe is this? Do you believe in me? If you believe in love Would you believe in me?"
She is just questioning the facts. He is perfect, he does everything for her, he is there for her, and he is everything but she doesn't love him? He just doesn't understand and rightfully so.
The end is about him being robbed of everything. His love, his time and his pride.
So if she doesn't love him back he will MAKE her love him and they will see eye to eye no matter what. She will believe. Even if it means he has to kill to her to make her believe.
LOVE THIS SONG
Reminds me alot of my current situation
classic
The line "I'm only left with tired arms to stop the drowning" is saying that he won't drown ( he won't die from this) but he won't be able to swim to shore ( he won't be able to move on). Reminds me of one of my break ups... He...
