Exploring themes of ambition, power, and the darker sides of human nature, this track tells of the journey towards achieving greatness, accompanied by the possible consequences of its pursuit. The imagery of “injured lying in the roadside” is a stark reminder of those who are casualties of reaching such ambitions and those who exploit others. In short, it is a commentary on the complexities and contradictions inherent in the pursuit of power, urging us to reflect on the costs associated with reaching our ambitions.
