Let Me Hear You Scream Lyrics
Let me hear you scream!
I'm black and blue, beat up, but still I take the blows;
'Cause all I need is blood and sweat and skin and bones!
I'll take this rage,
Rattle your cage,
Nobody said it's easy!
It's do or die,
Only the strong survive!
Get ready for the last stand!
Get ready, I'm your hangman!
Let me hear you scream like you want it!
Let me hear you yell like you mean it!
If you're gonna go down:
Go loud!
Go strong!
Go proud!
Go on!
Go hard or go home!
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you scream!
I'll pull you up and push you right back in your place!
I'll take you down and wipe that smile right off your face!
I'll watch you break,
Your mine to take,
Don't blink; you just might miss it!
It's all or nothing,
Nowhere left to run!
Are you ready for the last fight!
Get ready with the war cry!
Let me hear you scream like you want it!
Let me hear you yell like you mean it!
If you're gonna go down:
Go loud!
Go strong!
Go proud!
Go on!
Go hard or go home!
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you scream!

Only one comment for this badass song? Honestly?
Anyways, I think this is about yelling and letting out that built-up angst to SCREAM for what you believe in! This dude is 60 years old and still releasing badass music! He never fails to amaze me with his amazing lyrics and music, and his extremely strong voice.
Yuuup. And indeed he IS black and bruised/beatup haha.

It's funny how you can't understand a single word of his interviews, but can nearly understand word for word his singing. I believe singing uses a part of the brain other than speaking.

obviously a perfect ass kickin song, to just get ready to take on anything and be able to yell as a motivator, ozzy still has tremendous energy!
Ozzy, where is the fountain of youth, cause you sound like you have found it! How many years later and you still sound AWESOME!
I agree, this is basically about standing up for what you believe in, and to get you going.
So...
LET ME HEAR YOU SCREAM!
Just a simple but VERY effective pump up song. This is exactly why he will always be my favorite musician ever.
This song is clearly about sex.. ¨Let me hear you scream like you want it, Let me hear you scream like you mean it¨, i don´t know it seems pretty clear to me
Its about a battle, and the lyrics, "If you gotta, go down Go loud Go strong Go proud Go on Go hard or go home" means even if you lose the battle, you must make an effort.
This song is about pushing on towards a goal in the face of the hurdles and setbacks life throws up along the way, and not giving up on yourself.
The general idea is "Buck up, son. Nobody said this was going to be easy. But you can do it!"
The refrain is about motivating the listener to not stop, to keep going, to dig deep, to act like you want it! If you're going to go for a goal, go for it with everything you've got. If you're going to go down, go down giving it everything you've got.
The narrator in the lyrics alternates. In some lines, we hear the voice of "life." The discouraging voice, throwing roadblocks and set backs in your path. As you're trying to achieve a goal, each of these roadblocks is an opportunity to quit. To give up.
Examples of these lines:
"I'll pull you up and put you right back in your place, I'll take you down and wipe that smile right off your face, I'll watch you break, you're mine to take"
Then the lyrics flip to the voice of a motivating force:
"Get ready with the war cry. Let me hear you scream like you want it!"
All in all, I find this song motivating when I'm starting to feel knocked down. It reminds me that achieving a worthy goal isn't easy, and it isn't pretty. You will get punched, you will get bruised, you will get your ass kicked. You will get knocked down. When that happens, dig down, get up, and keep walking forward.
If you keep walking forward, nothing can stop you.
