Spotlight
CG5 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I am everywhere
What is it that makes us creepy
Or do you even care?
Let's get to skulking, lurking
Our ink machine is finally working
We were your creation
Never knew you'd lie
No matter how hard you try
Don't hate
Appreciate the arrival of your sorry fate
You really think I want to kill?
The ink you see can't be distilled
I can tell it's not your day
Well, too bad
I'm here to stay
Our surprise is your demise
Close your lying eyes
Play that old song in the night
Right under the spotlight
You really think you can appease him?
His home is the projector screen
He'll surely stop
No, I'm just teasing
This table's been set just for me
Oh, can't you see?
You've got to run screamin' from the demon
30 years has come and gone
Your time to shine has just begun
You'll be dancing with the devil on the lower level
Think I'll be going
Make these pipes stop flowing
Time to die, I've gone awry
Say your last goodbye
Play that old song in the night
This is the spotlight
You've got to run screamin' from the demon
Play that old song in the night
This is the spotlight
The lyrics of CG5's song Spotlight are quite intricate and deep. The first two lines suggest the presence of an omnipresent malevolent entity, which is a little devil. The next lines imply the song's protagonist contemplating on the reasons why we humans consider things creepy or what makes them creepy. Then comes the chorus of the song, which talks about how the singer is looking for the opportunity to avenge their creation. They never knew that their creator, the person they trusted, would lie to them. Now, they want to make their creator feel the same helplessness and fear they felt when they had no control over their own existence.
The second verse highlights the singer's intentions of creating further chaos by threatening their creator with their presence. The verse also includes an allusion to the singer's home being a projector screen, which could be a reference to the fact that they are a character in a video game. Finally, the bridge of the song talks about how the singer has waited thirty long years to exact their revenge and now wants to make their creator die in a way that they did. The last lines of the song repeat the chorus, emphasizing that it is the spotlight where all of the singer's plans will come to fruition.

@CG5
I wanna take a moment to remind everyone that is watching or has watched this, that my best friend The Great Dolvondo composed this song, meaning that he created all the chord progressions throughout, and absolutely crushed it on the piano solos that gave this song incredible spice! Please show him some love on his channel, and thank you for your support! <3
