Cover art for Aquemini lyrics by OutKast

I dont want to be that 'one guy' but does anyone else see a conspiracy theory in their music?

Let's walk to the bridge now meet me halfway now you may see some children dead off in the pathway it's them poor babies walkin' slowly to the candy lady It's lookin' bad need some hope like the words maybe, if, or probably more than a hobby

The bridge being truth as if he's saying "I'll give you a hint; a taste; halfway, but you have to take to dig deeper and walk halfway on your own. Some children dead off in the pathway being those who are too ignorant to think that there is something big going on behind the scenes. the stubborn people who will never admit this. the poor babies walkin slowly to the candy lady being those being sucked into a world of distractions, sweet temptations like candy offered by a strange woman?

Sin all depends on what you believing in Faith is what you make it that's the hardest shit since MC Ren Alien can blend right on in wit' yo' kin look again 'cause I swear I spot one every now & then It's happenin' again wish I could tell you when

That first line seems pretty self explanatory but: It could mean we only know right and wrong because of whats fed to us. Faith needs to be focused in yourself because praying to a god wont help and thats the hardest fact to come to terms with. The aliens blending in would be not literal aliens but whoever the enemy is, whatever temptation is disguising itself. Every now and then it becomes obvious how deep we are in trouble Im not sure about that last one but he says happenin AGAIN so i feel it has something to do with the saying 'History is doomed to repeat itself.'
