"What I shouldn't do I will
They say I’m emotional
What I wanna save I’ll kill"
in the bible it says something similar:
Romans 7:15-20
15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[a] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
thing are probably making more since now.
in the second verse, things are reversed and he has the power to switch things up and do what he truly wants to. this is relayed in Romans 7:22;
For in my inner being I delight in God’s law...
so, you probably have figured out the whole song exept for one part: the chorus. the phrase "fairly local' explains that tyler has been through what we are going through. it confirms this by saying, "Ive seen the streets you're walking down." the part that says "good people now" says that we all are good people but all have issues.
at the beginning of the first verse it says,
