This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Don't wanna be sly and defile you
Desecrate my mind and rely on you
I just wanna break this crown
But it's hard when I'm so run down
And you're so cynical, Narcissistic Cannibal!
Got to bring myself back from the dead!
Sometimes, I hate, the life, I made
Everything's wrong every time
Pushing on I can't escape
Everything that comes my way
Is haunting me taking its sweet time
Holding on I'm lost in a haze
Fighting life to the end of my days
Don't wanna be rude but I have to
Nothing's good about the hell you put me through
I just need to look around
See that life that has come unbound
And you're so cynical, Narcissistic Cannibal
Got to bring myself back from the dead
Sometimes, I hate, the life I made
Everything's wrong every time
Pushing on I can't escape
Everything that comes my way
Is haunting me taking its sweet time
Sometimes, I hate, the life I made
Everything's wrong every time
Pushing on I can't escape
Everything that comes my way
Is haunting me taking its sweet time
Holding on I'm lost in a haze
Fighting life to the end of my days
Holding on I'm lost in a haze
Fighting life to the end of my days
Desecrate my mind and rely on you
I just wanna break this crown
But it's hard when I'm so run down
And you're so cynical, Narcissistic Cannibal!
Got to bring myself back from the dead!
Sometimes, I hate, the life, I made
Everything's wrong every time
Pushing on I can't escape
Everything that comes my way
Is haunting me taking its sweet time
Holding on I'm lost in a haze
Fighting life to the end of my days
Don't wanna be rude but I have to
Nothing's good about the hell you put me through
I just need to look around
See that life that has come unbound
And you're so cynical, Narcissistic Cannibal
Got to bring myself back from the dead
Sometimes, I hate, the life I made
Everything's wrong every time
Pushing on I can't escape
Everything that comes my way
Is haunting me taking its sweet time
Sometimes, I hate, the life I made
Everything's wrong every time
Pushing on I can't escape
Everything that comes my way
Is haunting me taking its sweet time
Holding on I'm lost in a haze
Fighting life to the end of my days
Holding on I'm lost in a haze
Fighting life to the end of my days

Hayalperest
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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
"It's about me watching people who are so narcissistic destroy themselves. They basically eat themselves alive because of their narcissism. That's the gist of the story."-Jonathan Davis
This song immediately reminded me of Obama since he is the single most arrogant narcissist that I have ever seen.
I am not a fan of Bush either, but Obama is a lot worse.
@sepultura1987 What if he is talkign about himself? "I hate the life I made" => He now sees that his selfishness led him to destroy his life ("cannibal"), so he now has to "got to bring [himself] back from the dead". He wants to quit with this old lifestyle ("break [his] crown") and doesn't want anything to do with that past (the first two lines). Since he brought himself there he pretty much can't change anything. He is "fighting [his] life to the end of [his] days". He realises that he wasted many opportunities in life due his narcissism.
@sepultura1987 I'm a Narcissistic Cannibal. This song describes me to a tee.
The term "Narcissistic cannibal" is pretty self-explanatory. It's about narcissistic people that behave so selfishly that, not only do they consume others, but they end up consuming themselves in the end. I've known people like this.
I think the rest of the song is from the perspective of the victim of a narcissistic cannibal, but I could be wrong. I think it has to do with fighting society and its narcissistic cannibals.
Sometimes I hate the life I made Everything's wrong every time
Sometimes, no matter how hard we try, and no matter what decisions we make, everything turns out wrong. The narcissistic cannibal will always try to destroy others. We inadvertently accommodate them, and in the end we hate our own lives.
Pushing on I can't escape Everything that comes my way
No matter how hard we try, people will always try to hurt us and destroy our dreams. It doesn't matter what decisions you make, you can't avoid being hurt or damaged by others.
That's the way the song speaks to me, anyhow. It's one of my favorites, and it speaks volumes about what I am currently experiencing in my own life.
i love korn's music, but this song sucks ( in my opinion) i know they were trying something new w/ skrillex, but i dont think it worked. they need to make music like they did in the 90's and early 2000's, tht stuff was great
@rojo3s I think I'm the only one who loved this album unironically.
Specifically, I think it's about a celebrity whose became so caught up in themselves and their success they end up eating themselves in their own narcissism until they loose what little respect they still had.
So damn awesome...
Excellent song.
While the verses sound like a self-pitying victim wanting revenge against a bullying dictator, it's also interesting that the song is about a blowhard whose ego ultimately brought them down.
Why is it that the best songs on TPOT had Skrillex involved in some way?
