Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't cast a sigh you'd better believe it,
That's the truth of it take it or leave it,
Resign to it homicide, homicide, homicide, homicide
No one cares when someone lies
They'd rather say that it's a red alert
You'd better believe it,
That's the truth of it take it or leave it,
Homicide homicide, homicide, homicide, homicide
You try to tell me it's his fault because he's down
And let him lose this homicide all over town
I'll take enough but I'll take it down what's your address,
I'll write it down I'll be in touch so don't leave town
In a big black car (solo) homicide, homicide, homicide
I believe in homicide I rest my case, don't cast a
Sigh you'd better believe it, that's the truth of it,

Homicide
The lyrics of 999's song "Homicide" might seem unsettling and disturbing at first, but upon closer examination, they may reveal a deeper meaning. The song seems to critique how society is more willing to blame the victim than the perpetrator, whether it's a case of murder or any other injustice. The lines "No one cares when someone lies, They'd rather say that it's a red alert" suggest that people are more concerned with sensationalizing a situation than actually seeking the truth. The repeated lines of "homicide, homicide" can be seen as a commentary on how violence and death have become commonplace and normalized in society.
The line "I'll take enough but I'll take it down what's your address, I'll write it down I'll be in touch so don't leave town" is particularly striking in its threatening tone. It could be interpreted as the singer taking revenge on someone who has wronged them or standing up to the powerful forces that perpetrate violence and injustice.
Overall, "Homicide" can be seen as a critique of a society that is apathetic to violence and injustice and more concerned with sensationalism and scapegoating. It urges the listener to take a stand and not resign themselves to the status quo.
