8LB Pressure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'd believe all your lies
That's all I heard I said
One too many times
I'm on the line that
You just had to make
Resurrect my first, my hate
I'm about to take
I'm losing out on
Everything that I've loved
Not another day, no, no
I don't play
I'm taking everything and
Leaving you with none
You don't want the hate
And all my spite
Ripping off the face
Of your disguise
You don't want the hate
Of my bloodshot eyes
You don't want the hate
The death of your disguise
Can't wait for you
I don't even try to chase
There's place for you
To run out and hide
Cause now's the time for you
To come face to face
Magnify my first, my hate
PRE
The lyrics of 8LB Pressure's song Unmasked speak of betrayal and the end of a toxic relationship. The singer of the song addresses their ex-lover by stating that they no longer believe their lies after being hurt too many times. They are at a breaking point and are about to take action to leave behind everything they have loved in order to cut all ties with their partner. The feelings of hate and anger are present as they declare that their former lover will be left with nothing.
The song also conveys a sense of empowerment as the singer asserts themselves and refuses to play the game anymore. They are now seeing through the facade of their partner and exposing their true nature. The chorus of the song reinforces the idea that the singer's eyes have been opened and that their former lover does not want to face the hate and consequences of their actions. The outro of the song suggests that the singer is now free and has moved on.
