Acid King Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know nice
I've got both in my head twice
There is no reason that both have to suffer
Bow down evil satan
You're always right
No explanation
They just do
Tell all the people to deal with the answer
Tear down the wall
The voice tells to
Sit down and watch your life go by
Shoot off a cannon to the sky
There is no reason that both have to suffer
Bow down evil satan
You're always right
Evil!
Evil!
Evil!
Evil!
Evil!
Evil!
Evil!
Evil!
The lyrics of Acid King's song "Evil Satan" are quite simple and straightforward, yet powerful. In the first few lines, the singer acknowledges that there is good and evil within her, which coexist simultaneously. There's no reason for either of them to suffer or be suppressed, and she seems to suggest that both of these qualities contribute to the complexity of her personality. The next few lines establish a sense of submission to the figure of Evil Satan, acknowledging him as always being right, perhaps implying that one should embrace their darker side.
The following lines are somewhat cryptic, possibly alluding to the randomness and unpredictability of life. The singer acknowledges that sometimes things happen for no apparent reason, and that people should accept this fact and deal with it accordingly. The lines, "Tell all the people to deal with the answer, Tear down the wall, The voice tells to," may imply that we should look beyond our own limitations and preconceptions, breaking down the enclosures that limit our understanding of life. The final lines, "Sit down and watch your life go by, Shoot off a cannon to the sky," may suggest adopting a passive or active approach to life, respectively. Ultimately, the song is about embracing all aspects of oneself, even the darker ones, and navigating life with strength and determination.
