Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't wanna see your face, you better disappear
The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear
So beat it, just beat it
You better run, you better do what you can
Don't wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man
You wanna be tough, better do what you can
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
They're out to get you, better leave while you can
Don't wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man
You wanna stay alive, better do what you can
So beat it, just beat it
You have to show them that you're really not scared
You're playin' with your life, this ain't no truth or dare
They'll kick you, then they beat you,
Then they'll tell you it's fair
So beat it, but you wanna be bad
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated

The song "Beat It" by Alexander Ethan Grey explores themes of defiance, courage, and the pursuit of individuality. The lyrics tell the story of someone who is being warned by others to stay away and disappear, but instead, they choose to stand their ground and face their challenges head-on.
In the first verse, the person is warned not to show their face and to disappear because the others around them are filled with anger and hostility. However, rather than giving in to the pressure, the song encourages the person to "beat it," meaning to go against the norm and not be intimidated by the crowd.
The second verse highlights the need to be resilient and do whatever it takes to survive. The lyrics suggest that the person should prove their bravery and masculinity, not by resorting to violence, but by being strong in their principles and actions.
The chorus is a repeated call to "beat it," reinforcing the message of standing up for oneself and not allowing others to defeat you. It emphasizes the importance of being determined, strong, and fearless, even when faced with adversity. The notion of being "funky and strong" suggests that one's fight should be unique, authentic, and powerful.
Overall, the song's lyrics convey the belief that it doesn't matter who is right or wrong, but rather how passionately one fights for what they believe in. It encourages listeners to be unapologetically themselves, to confront opposition, and to persevere despite the challenges that come their way. "Beat It" ultimately serves as an anthem for embracing one's individuality and courageously facing the world.

Lyrics
Eyes, blood, bones
Stuck in your rainbow clothes
Rest my case
If it's not rearranged
Trading panic attacks, you finally threw it all back
Then you told me how he abused you
You had to cut out the truth
But I already knew that you've got nothing left to lose
Strip for me
Took off everything except these sleeves
All the pain is underneath, I'm listenin'
To everything, please tell me everything
I'll put my hand up on your chest
So you forget your engravings
Not one bite
Stomach knots from our fight
Can't do shit
The puzzle pieces don't fit
You warned me of other guys
And then you told me you lied
You schemed to see my reaction
I had to throw up the truth
But you already knew, that in a month we'd be strangers
Strip for me
Took off everything except these sleeves
All the pain is underneath, I'm listenin'
To everything, please tell me everything
I'll put my hand up on your chest
So you forget your engravings

I feel like the piano being slammed is such a good metaphor for the rage that he can only truly communicate through music...such a great song!
