He certainly did earn that reputation.
Go 1, 2, 3, 4,
Yeah yeah you gotta
Stand tall and cut away the ties
Drop Balls and hold that head up high
The world is fast and youth ain't gonna wait
So grab a hold before it gets to late
Bare your soul and strip away the cold
Of withered life that's past so gray and old
'Cause all the pain that that's filled these eyes you see
Has made them bleed just recently
Tears that made me
Ashamed to be me
But that gave me
Strength to see me
Made a spark that
Lit the dark
Let me shine
[Chorus]
Time to see, believe this in me
This pain that I feel deep inside
'Cause its time when you come together, peel together
Better now so do it now or never
I fall sleep to freeways far from here
Spend half the night just drinking beer
From this day on shall be the words
My flesh and bones shall make it heard
Don't you test Ill have to mess with you
Do my best so fuck the rest of you
One of these days
You'll see I've always been right
[Chorus]
I can feel this pain is real I never wanted anything from you, you
And it makes me glad
When I see the sun
And it makes me sad
When you feel my one
And I thank my god
Got a girl like you
And I thank my god
Did you save me
[Chorus]
Yeah yeah you gotta
Stand tall and cut away the ties
Drop Balls and hold that head up high
The world is fast and youth ain't gonna wait
So grab a hold before it gets to late
Bare your soul and strip away the cold
Of withered life that's past so gray and old
'Cause all the pain that that's filled these eyes you see
Has made them bleed just recently
Tears that made me
Ashamed to be me
But that gave me
Strength to see me
Made a spark that
Lit the dark
Let me shine
[Chorus]
Time to see, believe this in me
This pain that I feel deep inside
'Cause its time when you come together, peel together
Better now so do it now or never
I fall sleep to freeways far from here
Spend half the night just drinking beer
From this day on shall be the words
My flesh and bones shall make it heard
Don't you test Ill have to mess with you
Do my best so fuck the rest of you
One of these days
You'll see I've always been right
[Chorus]
I can feel this pain is real I never wanted anything from you, you
And it makes me glad
When I see the sun
And it makes me sad
When you feel my one
And I thank my god
Got a girl like you
And I thank my god
Did you save me
[Chorus]

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
GhostWishing i agree with you 100% dude. I too tire of all this Nu Metal bullshit that people try to label everything with nowadays. Metal is fuckin metal people so fuck you and your labels!
