Problems
Corby Matt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And shove it where the sun don't shine
To create something to benefit all humankind
You can curb your conversations
It's counter to the times
You're dampening the fire that fuels every mind
Fuels every mind
Don't be so complacent
When you're passing out the fruit from the vine
You take advantage of those who can't reach up that high
Don't take out your frustrations on those in your line
It's regrettable you've turned your service into a crime
Just take all you can carry
Take all you can hold
What's the worst that can happen?
You'll find a resolve
Just take all you can carry
Take all you can hold
What's the worst that can happen?
You'll find a resolve
Future generations have too many wrongs to get right
It's resting on how many will take up the fight
Yeah, that's the situation they run down the chain
I'm wondering if we'll ever be back here again, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Just take all you can carry (oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Take all you can hold
What's the worst that can happen?
You'll find a resolve
Just take all you can carry
Take all you can hold
What's the worst that can happen?
You'll find a resolve
Mm, hmm
Our miseducation has taught us to close our eyes
We've neglected every vision of pure insight
When you build imagination
You're shifting the frame
I'm wondering if we'll ever be back here again
Just take all you can carry
Take all you can hold (oh)
What's the worst that can happen?
You'll find a resolve
Just take all you can carry
Take all you can hold
What's the worst that can happen? (What's the worst?)
You'll find a resolve
The lyrics to Corby Matt's song "Problems" convey a message about social and personal responsibility. The lines "You can take your complications and shove it where the sun don't shine" suggest a disdain for unnecessary complexities. The song encourages listeners to create something that benefits all of humankind, implying the importance of finding solutions to problems rather than dwelling on them.
The lyrics further criticize complacency and a lack of empathy. It emphasizes the need to avoid dampening the fire of creativity and passion that fuels every person's mind. The lines "You take advantage of those who can't reach up that high" suggest the unfairness of exploiting and mistreating those who are less fortunate or powerless.
The song also highlights the urgency of addressing the challenges faced by future generations. It implies that there are many wrongs that need to be made right, and it calls upon individuals to join the fight for a better future. The repetition of the question "I'm wondering if we'll ever be back here again" reflects a sense of concern and uncertainty about whether the mistakes of the past will be repeated.
Overall, "Problems" encourages listeners to take action, be aware of their impact on others, and strive for positive change in both personal and societal contexts.
