Come With Me
DJ C-Lo A.K.A. Breakfader Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

it's a beautiful prison we're living in
come take my hand
it's a beautiful castle we've built on the beautiful sand
with this beautiful ocean before us
and all of these beautiful things
it's almost as if we exist in a beautiful dream
only i'm not so sure what it's worth or what any of it means
come with me
take my hand
come let's go
don't ask where 'cause i don't know
come let's go

now i don't have a problem with objects
i love the material zone
i love the smell of the forest, the expanse of the desert
and the way that the heavens were thrown
and the sound and the power of the ocean
and the sparkle of diamonds and gold
and the mysterious light
in that starry night painting by Vincent van gogh
it's just nothing i need to upset myself trying to own

so come with me
come let's go
take my hand
don't ask where 'cause i don't know
come let's go

yeah I've heard of a country where nobody cares what you've got
where the cut of your clothes or the make of your car
doesn't mean a whole lot
where acts of compassion are valued like pieces of art
and people aren't judged on possessions
but by the intentions of the heart

so come with me
come on let's go
take my hand
don't ask where 'cause i don't know
let's just go




come on let's go
come let's go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of DJ C-Lo A.K.A. Breakfader's song "Come With Me" present a conflicted perspective on the concept of materialism and how it shapes our lives. The opening stanza suggests that our current state of existence is a sort of "beautiful prison," where we are surrounded by lovely things but are not certain of their true value. The singer invites the listener to join them, offering their hand and painting a picture of a world that is both constructed and arbitrary. The overarching theme is that of being trapped in a cycle of consumption, where we collect items and chase experiences without any clear sense of purpose or direction. The singer acknowledges the allure of objects and experiences but ultimately concludes that they are not necessary for true happiness.


The second verse expands on this idea, with the singer describing their appreciation for the sensory experiences of living on this earth. They acknowledge the beauty of the natural world and the man-made wonders created by famous artists like Van Gogh. At the same time, the singer distances themselves from these things, recognizing that they are not worth becoming attached to.


The third and final verse provides a glimmer of hope, as the singer describes a utopian society where possessions are not valued and compassion is the reigning currency. The implication is that if people could collectively shift their values in this way, they could find true happiness and fulfillment.


Overall, the message of "Come With Me" is a plea for the listener to find their own path in life and not be swayed by societal pressures to accumulate wealth or status symbols. The song encourages us to be mindful of the things we choose to value and to seek out those experiences that truly bring us joy.
