Let It Be For What It Is
Agathocles Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Covered - in disguise
Don't wanna be a toy
Nor consumption for human joy
Majority pounds on me
But I only wanna be me
I've told other about this
Few people understand
What this is all about
Human equality
Both physically and mentally
But why even bother
And are there any others
Who try to understand
And that I can call 'a friend'
These lyrics represent a reflection of the struggle that most individuals face daily, where they deal with the truth surrounded by lies. It highlights how everyone is tied up in a web of lies where the truth is well hidden behind the veil of the lies that appear to be comforting to most. The artist is saying that they don't want to be a toy or a mere object that exists only to feed human joy or consumption. Instead, they want to be afforded the freedom to be themselves by embracing their personal identity.
The artist understands that the majority of society will judge them harshly for being different, but they desire to stay true to themselves. The lyrics show that few people truly comprehend what it means to fight for human equality, physically and mentally, and even if they do, they may not have the courage to stand up and fight for it. The artist questions whether there is anyone out there who understands what they are going through and who can genuinely be called a friend.
Overall, the song highlights the difficulties people encounter daily when trying to maintain genuineness and stay true to who they are in a world governed by external pressure and societal norms.
