Unchained
Blood On The Dance Floor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hate the right to remain violent,
Anything you say will be used to silence
So shut the fuck up! With your BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!
Rip your face like Texas chainsaw
Born into a world! That was turned against me
I turned into something they never thought I'd be
Fuck all this fame, You can have it back peace
Put my middle finger up, cuz you don't own me
You've tried to say you're sorry, For the things you've done
Tried to play me like a fool, But I know I am not one
Try to entrap me with your lies & accusations
Fuck you bitch! I'm the freak of the nation
Here's a bag of dicks, no one give's a shit
Go and run your mouth, take a knife to your clit
If your talking garbage, making my name tarnished
Put my rep in bondage, rip it up like carnage
I'm unchained! Insane in the membrane
I'm on top of the motherfucking food chain!
I'm so high they can't find a tree for me to hang
I'm on a mission and I'm looking for some po tang
I'm cutting free from these shackles and all these chains
Cut me loose from this noose, I need some mary jane
Drop the crain on the haters to end my pain
So I can drain all my bad blood in vein
Down and broken bound by lock & key
Shamed for who I am, Modern slavery
Revenge will have its day, I serve no one but me
Let these chains fall away I've been finally set free

I got this way just being me
And now screaming fans are all I see
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
I'm not your slave
Baby I'm unchained!

I'm having a REBELation
With your mainstream fabrications
Cause I wasn't born in a manger
I was born in this nation
I'm not a gift from god
Certainly not a spawn of satan
But this dream ill keep chasing
For as long as you hatin
No white flag will be waving
Cause the shit that you're saying
I'm a ticking time bomb
Just waiting to go off
I'm the motherfuckin trigger finger on the hand of god
Ill force feed you needles
Whether you hate me or not
I'm vicious and young
And I cant be stopped
You can try to lock me up
You can put me in a cage
But this lion you see
Will never be tame
I've been crazy since
I dropped out the 9th grade
With vacations to the looney bin
Before I was of age
I got beat the down running home
On the first day
And the cops told me to wipe that evil smile off my damn face
I laughed then cause I knew
This would be the last time I cave
And I never went back after that day
I moved on,i got strong
I even changed my fucking name
I maybe "Jayy Von" now
But "Jeremy Brian" is from where I came
So give me the blame
Break my chains
I never said I wanted fame
I'll do what I can to make a change
But I'm not a slave baby
I'm unchained

I got this way just being me
And now screaming fans are all I see
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
I'm not your slave
Baby I'm unchained!

You can lock me in a cage (You can lock me in a cage)
But I'll break free with my rage (But I'll break free with my fucking rage)
You can't hold me fucking down (You can't hold me fucking down)
Like Dillinger! I'll break out. (Like Dillinger I am fucking breaking out)

I got this way just being me
And now screaming fans are all I see
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
I'm not your slave
Baby I'm unchained!

Cringe Lord

It's amazing to look at how much BOTDF has matured. Looking back at the very early releases, don't get me wrong I still love the songs, the lyrics were kind of choppily put together... Then you look at the lyrics of this song and the lyrics flow so wonderfully

em

+BVB ARMY GIRL FOREVER Uhh.. They're expressing their opinions just like you are. It's good not to lock yourself in a crowd of ignorant people.

Cringe Lord

@19MetalMan93 Okay if you don't like their music, why the fuck are you on one of their videos?

19MetalMan93

+Shadow-Freakshow This is them matured with good lyrics? Good lord I can't even imagine how bad they were when considered shit by their own fans

Mother Bear
