Slave
Agitator Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lowest of the low
Drug dealer, fucking scumbag
Greedy motherfucker preying on the weak
Occupy your mind with your gangster movie fantasies
It won′t be long before you're swallowed by the beast
Tricked by their schemes, you won't listen to the truth
The drugs you buy will become your demise
You can't hide forever in a world of disguise
Some day you′ll get busted
So you better look over your shoulder,
Make sure you know who you′ve trusted
Every time you breathe that smoke you show you're fucking weak
Keep it up, your future′s fucking bleak
It's like an itch that you can never scratch
Can′t make it through the day without your fix.
You're a slave to your addiction.
I swear that I will never understand.
You look so fucking stupid with that shit in your hand.
The song "Slave" is a scathing critique of drug dealers who prey on the vulnerabilities of others to satisfy their own greed. The line "bottom of the barrel, the lowest of the low" sets the tone for the lyrics, establishing the sentiment that drug dealers are the scum of society. The lyrics go on to condemn their actions as being driven by "gangster movie fantasies," which serve to occupy their shallow minds.
The song suggests that drug dealers are actively contributing to the downfall of the nation's youth. The lyrics assert that the drug dealers are selling a destructive product that ultimately leads to the downfall of those who use it. The words "you perpetuate the downfall of the nation's youth" are scathing and suggest that drug dealers are a menace to society.
The final lines of the song actively make the case that drug dealers are slaves to their addiction. By saying, "you're a slave to your addiction, I swear that I will never understand," the song highlights how the drug dealer is trapped in a cycle of addiction and predation that ultimately leads to their own demise. This song is a reflection of the negative societal impact that drugs can have.
