Dirtbag
Brad Sucks Lyrics

In Brad Sucks's song, "Dirtbag," the lyrics suggest a sense of detachment from society and the pressures of conforming to societal norms. The opening lines, "It's a little bit hard to understand, but I only wanna be a modern man," express a desire for progression and modernity, but simultaneously suggest a difficulty in achieving it. The singer seems to be reflecting on a lost love with "thinking about the one that got away" and "nobody wanna give me heart away." These lines express discontentment in general, which is deepened by the refrain "It seems you've mistaken me for someone who cares." The singer seems to regard himself as an outsider in society, rejecting the expectations of society, and acknowledges himself as "a dirtbag under the weather and overrated."

The second stanza describes how the singer makes a career by "living underground taking it to the scene, making money not knowing what it means." This highlights the conflict between material success and personal fulfillment, as the singer acknowledges his role in perpetuating a societal value system he does not fully believe in. He labels himself as "a liar set shit on fire" and admits to enjoying confrontations with others, saying "take your time talking down to all your friends." The final line of the stanza "It's hard to find it, but I don't mind it" suggests that while the singer recognizes the difficulties of living like a "dirtbag," he does not mind the challenges.

In conclusion, "Dirtbag" reflects the intrinsic dissatisfaction and disillusionment of modern society, represented through the lens of a nonconformist who rejects the norms of society. It explores the conflict between societal values and personal fulfillment, expressing a sense of alienation and disappointment in human relationships.
