Waste
Blessing a Curse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wasting away
Cause nobody here's got a fuckin' sense of urgency
Okay, leave it to me
Cause with a squad like this who needs enemies?
If another fuckin' goddamn son of a bitch steps up to try me
I got no problem with settling the score
But if not then you've been warned
Even if my anxiety's got the best of me
Don't assume that I'm gonna let you win
My aggression is unrelenting
Regardless of where you think you've been
You're wasted just face it
You thrive in stagnation
You're no inspiration
You have no appeal
You're sadly mistaken if
You think that takin' me down will affect how you feel
I'm flattered that you think I have a crown to steal but see the joke's on you
Cause none of this is real,
I tell myself one day I'm destined for greatness
But you worthless motherfuckers keep on tryin' my patience
Throwing salt on my name
Won't help your wounds when you fall
There's a million ways to hate you and I fuckin' feel them all
You think we do this shit for fun
(Motherfucker)
What's wrong?
What's wrong, cat got your tongue
You look a little green around the gills
Even if my anxiety's got the best of me
don't assume that i'm gonna let you win
my aggression is unrelenting
regardless of where you think you've been
Cat got your tongue, boy?
The lyrics of Blessing a Curse's song "Waste" convey a sense of frustration, defiance, and determination. The singer expresses their dissatisfaction with the apathy and lack of urgency they witness around them, feeling like they are wasting away in a world where nobody seems to care. They take it upon themselves to be the one who acts, questioning the need for enemies when their own squad seems unreliable. The lyrics suggest that if someone challenges or provokes them, the singer is ready to settle the score, with or without support. They refuse to let their anxiety get the best of them and are unyielding in their aggression, regardless of others' perceptions of their abilities or past experiences. The lyrics also reflect a sense of being underestimated and misunderstood, where the singer is flattered by the idea that someone thinks they have something worth taking but also aware of the irony that none of it is real. While they strive for greatness and have ambitions, they are constantly tested by the patience-wearing actions of others. The expression "cat got your tongue" at the end serves as a challenge, suggesting that the singer is ready and waiting for someone to try and silence them, confident in their ability to respond.

Another day
Yet another mundane day
Wasting away
Passing time without purpose
Cause nobody here's got a fuckin' sense of urgency
Because nobody around understands the importance of acting promptly
Okay, leave it to me
Fine, I will take charge
Cause with a squad like this who needs enemies?
When my own teammates are against me, who needs opponents?
If another fuckin' goddamn son of a bitch steps up to try me
If another person dares to challenge me
I got no problem with settling the score
I am ready to confront them and resolve the conflict
If you're on my side that's fine by me
If you support me, I am content with that
But if not then you've been warned
However, if not, consider yourself cautioned
Even if my anxiety's got the best of me
Despite my overwhelming anxiety
Don't assume that I'm gonna let you win
Do not think I will allow you to prevail
My aggression is unrelenting
My assertiveness knows no bounds
Regardless of where you think you've been
Irrespective of your perceived accomplishments
You're wasted just face it
You are completely wasted, accept it
You thrive in stagnation
You flourish in a state of inactivity
You're no inspiration
You do not serve as a source of motivation
You have no appeal
You lack any kind of charm or attractiveness
You're sadly mistaken if
You are gravely mistaken if
You think that takin' me down will affect how you feel
You believe that defeating me will impact your emotions
I'm flattered that you think I have a crown to steal but see the joke's on you
It amuses me that you believe there is something worthy for you to take from me, but in reality, you are mistaken
Cause none of this is real
Because none of this holds true significance
I tell myself one day I'm destined for greatness
I reassure myself that someday I will achieve greatness
But you worthless motherfuckers keep on tryin' my patience
Yet, you worthless individuals continue to test my patience
Throwing salt on my name
Casting negative remarks upon my reputation
Won't help your wounds when you fall
Will not alleviate your own failures and suffering
There's a million ways to hate you and I fuckin' feel them all
There are countless reasons to despise you, and I am painfully aware of each one
You think we do this shit for fun
Do you honestly believe we engage in this solely for amusement?
(Motherfucker)
(An insulting term used to intensify the statement)
What's wrong?
What is the issue?
What's wrong, cat got your tongue
What is the matter? Has something rendered you speechless?
You look a little green around the gills
You appear to be unwell or nauseous
Cat got your tongue, boy?
Are you unable to speak, my dear?
