Scars
Brennan Savage Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Blood on my shoes
Never pay respects, but i pay my dues
Wanna act like me I never act like you
Wanna take my shine, but i got bad news
When I step in the building ima make shit shake
Ima body anybody they send my way
You gon' see my face close case now
Bands on my mind
Blood on my shoes
Never pay respects, but i pay my dues
Wanna act like me I never act like you
Wanna take my shine, but i got bad news
It'll take a bullet to stop me,
and you need a heavy hand if ya plannin' to drop me
Tell your man if he plannin' to rob me,
Ima die for my pride I'll go down with a fight
A lot of people they fallin' off the map
Still got the scar when they stabbed me in the back
Gotta wonder why our friends switch sides
But just seem to turn a wolf against his pack
I can't remember the last time that anyone kept shit real
You don't want to get on my bad side, I'm wild when I'm off them pills
Nobody love me when I tried, i would try again but I'm far too tired
You don't want to try me, or cross that line
But you ain't gonna do shit but waste my time
Bands on my mind
Blood on my shoes
Never pay respects, but i pay my dues
Wanna act like me I never act like you
Wanna take my shine, but i got bad news
When I step in the building ima make shit shake
Ima body anybody they send my way
I can handle any problem thats on my plate
You gon' see my face close case
The lyrics to Brennan Savage's "Scars" are a reflection of the artist's life experiences and feelings of betrayal. The lines "bands on my mind, blood on my shoes" convey a sense of conflict, as if the artist is constantly battling his inner demons while also dealing with external pressures. The expression "never pay respects, but I pay my dues" suggests that he doesn't conform to societal expectations, but he is still putting in the work and paying the price for his dreams. The artist emphasizes that he is unique and shouldn't be compared to others, as he asserts "Wanna act like me, I never act like you."
One of the key themes in the song is the artist's resilience in the face of adversity. He proclaims that he can handle any problem on his plate and that he'll fight back against any attempts to take his shine away. The lyrics "It'll take a bullet to stop me, and you need a heavy hand if ya plannin' to drop me" and "Ima die for my pride I'll go down with a fight" show that he's not easily intimidated or defeated. Yet, at the same time, the lyrics "nobody love me when I tried, I would try again but I'm far too tired" suggest that he's been let down before and is hesitant to trust others again.
Overall, "Scars" is a relatable song for anyone who has faced hardship or felt betrayed at some point in their life. The sense of defiance mixed with vulnerability gives the music a powerful emotional resonance.

Nobody love me when I tried, i would try again but I'm far too tired
Despite my efforts, I feel like no one appreciates me
You don't want to try me, or cross that line
If someone tests me, they will regret it
But you ain't gonna do shit but waste my time
I won't waste my energy on meaningless conflicts
