Nemesis
AYS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lost sons they called us with every rising sun
They spit on us and drove us away
We′re crawling through your shadows
And forget the softness of satisfaction
We only know the relentless pursuit of perfection
Their screaming headlines
Are cracking against our bones
From the inside of your heads
A hidden unit of your wrecking ideology
More profit every day
With every rising sun
To feed your rotting realm
To spread the seed of destruction
Your rotting sun rises slowly everyday
And it burns it all away
Nemesis
In the song "Nemesis" by AYS, the lyrics describe a group of individuals who have been cursed and rejected by society. The opening line suggests that those who are against them are relentless in their hatred, screaming and cursing them with every letter. The following lines continue the theme of being lost and pushed away, and the singers are portrayed as being forced to live in the shadows. However, instead of dwelling on their pain and frustration, the singers choose to focus on the relentless pursuit of perfection.
The chorus brings in the theme of the nemesis, or the ultimate enemy. The lines "Nemesis is watching us / From the inside of your heads / A hidden unit of your wrecking ideology" suggest that this nemesis is not external, but rather is a part of the ideologies that others hold. This nemesis is driving the pursuit of profit and the spread of destruction, even as the world rots away. The final line, "Nemesis", repeats the idea that this enemy is always present and always watching.
Overall, the lyrics in "Nemesis" describe a group who are facing intense negativity and rejection from the world around them. Rather than giving up or succumbing to this negativity, they choose to focus on striving for perfection, while recognizing the destructive forces that are driving the world around them.

Nebenbei, das ganze Hardcore Ding ist wohl eine der politischsten Musikrichtungen die du finden kannst. Wenn Meinungen geäußert werden, dann da.
