Control
Bornbroken Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is an illusion,
every single felony everything surrounding us
What is the conclusion,
you think you know but you don’t even have a grasp
There is a solution,
separate the counterfeit, fiction from fact
Eat all their pollution
feed from the fat of the land ingest and explode

Feels like I'm being buried alive
Enough is enough, how long can one man survive
I'm a vessel of hate, I take control
I watch your world disintegrate, burning all down

They say it is the end,
stupid mutherfuckers this is only the beginning
Apocalypse sold on the self, another empty skull,
you need a shot in the mouth
They tell us we not free,
but every breath is mine and nothing can corrupt me
Seedy intentions in doubt,
Jesus in a cheap suit shouting out old news

I'm tired of being buried alive
Enough is enough, how long can one survive
I'm a vessel of hate, I take control
I watch your world disintegrate, Burn it all down
This is the end
mutherfucker this is only the beginning

For the last time I’ll stand and fight
I call the bluff, show my cards of life
The world against one, I’ll never surrender
Watch you destroy yourself, No god can save you

I'm tired of being buried alive
Enough is enough, how long can one survive
I'm a vessel of hate, I take control
I watch your world disintegrate, Burn it all down
Burn it up

This is an illusion,
stupid mutherfuckers there's no room for begging
Apocalypse sold on the self,




Jesus in a cheap suit loosing souls in a crap shoot
Bleed it out x3 Take it all Back

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bornbroken's song "Control" delve into themes of disillusionment and the struggle for control. The song opens by highlighting the artificiality of our society, suggesting that everything is an illusion, including crime and the status quo. The artist indicates that the audience has yet to grasp the truth, as they state there is a solution that can be achieved by separating fact from fiction. However, the artist also acknowledges that society has a toxic relationship with consumption and the environment, which is echoed in the line "eat all their pollution, feed from the fat of the land ingest and explode." The chorus of the song emphasizes the artist's anger and frustration at being buried alive in a society that they believe is disintegrating before them. The artist has become a "vessel of hate" and is ready to take control by burning everything down.


The second verse and outro of the song confronts the audience with the idea of the end of the world. The artist dismisses the notion that this is the end, stating that it is only the beginning of something new. There is a clear sense of anger as the artist refers to people as "stupid mutherfuckers" and "bleed it out, take it all back" which is a direct confrontation with the established social order. There is a sense of urgency in the last verse as the artist declares that they are tired of being buried alive and that they will never surrender. They emphasize their power to take control of their own life and watch the destruction of the world around them. The song end on a call to action with the lyrics "Bleed it out x3 Take it all Back"
