Beg For Me
. Korn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everyone is looking at me.
I can't get out of bed.
There is evil in my head.
Just let me be.
Because when I hit the stage.
It is gone and I am free.
Goddamn you say you'll get up for me.
You're the crowd come on give it back to me.
You won't beg for me beg for me beg for me.

Goddamn you say you'll get up with me.
You're the crowd come on give it back to me.
You won't beg for me be there for me beg for me.

Tell me, how could this fade?
I am going in shame.
And I could not have my pain.
Everyone please let me be.
'Cause we're on stage.
And it's gone and I am free.

Goddamn you say you'll get up with me.
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me.
You won't beg for me, beg for me, beg for me.

Goddamn you say you'll get up with me.
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me.
You won't beg for me, be there for me, beg for me.

I feel the shame.
I'm not insane.
The things I feel now.
Aren't the same.
Who gives a fuck.

If my life sucks?
I just know one day.
I won't give up.

Everyone just let me be.

Goddamn you say you'll get up with me.
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me.
You won't beg for me, beg for me, beg for me.

Goddamn you say you'll get up with me.
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me.
You won't beg for me, be there for me, beg for me.





Be there, for me.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Korn's song Beg For Me describe a feeling of isolation and pain, with the singer feeling trapped in bed with evil in their head. However, when they hit the stage, they feel free, and the crowd can give them energy and motivation. The repeated lines "You won't beg for me, beg for me, beg for me" can be seen as a plea for validation and support from the crowd, but also a recognition that ultimately the singer is responsible for their own well-being. The final line "Be there for me" is a hopeful request for connection and understanding, but also a statement of agency in the singer's own healing process.


The song can be interpreted as a commentary on the struggles of being a performer or celebrity, with the pressure to constantly entertain and impress taking a toll on one's mental health. The contrast between the singer's private pain and their public performance can also be seen as a reflection of how many people hide their struggles behind a facade of success or happiness.


Overall, Beg For Me is a raw and honest portrayal of inner turmoil and the search for validation, set to Korn's signature heavy sound.

It's imperative you read the following statement with sarcasm as the undertone...

I know right? Like Korn has totally turned into fucking mainstream pussies. Next thing you know, Taylor swift will bust a line in their new single and Jonathan Davis's will mumble rap about money and hoes...

Shut the fuck up. Korn is Korn, they do what they want and how they feel. I love Never, Never because it fits in my life and my new attitude. I love alone I break because it is fucking beautifully done. I love get up because it speaks volumes and helps me get shit done and I love Korn because they're always putting shit out that has meaning instead of today's shit about bitches, drugs, and money.

Listen to the fucking lyrics, the point of them has never changed.

Shame on you for dogging a band because they're able to adapt.
