Now, with a contrabass and a cello adding the vital atmosphere and depth, and with drums enriching the music with a concise rhythm, Deep Trip are ready to take on the whole world of music, that is if the world is ready for them. After all, playing rock music on classical instruments is at least just as unconventional as it is effective. Luckily though, Deep Trip aren’t ones to be deterred so easily by mere conventions. Instead of treading their own path, they are laying a new one. While the band replaces electric guitars with an acoustic one and the mandatory bass guitar with a contrabass, they still shatter every spark of doubt about how much this band rocks and that with ease.
Reflecting the spirit of their music, the lyrics are exclusively rebellious. Political statements and situations torn out of life itself are presented in poetic metaphors, which perfectly mirror the soul of Deep Trip. The band sings of the hardships of life as well as the unfairness of the world we are living in today. Next to being catchy, the words of the songs can give anyone who doesn’t only open his ears, but also his heart, something to think about.
The true passion of this band, however, reveals itself on stage. Emotional and energetic performances are but two of the trademarks that make them an unforgettable live experience. It is hard to tell if the enthusiasm shines brighter on the faces of the young musicians which visibly love what they are doing, or those of the audience won’t forget the show for a long time. The band has gathered a lot of live experience since they first started and the result is that their shows are always solid and unique. So if you are planning to see them, be prepared for one really deep trip.
Hate
Deep Trip Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jesus is somewhere but i can't find.
Is he far away?
Is he black or is he white?
I don't care anyway.
Anyway i've lost my faith in this dark world
in this dark world full of hate.
I'm running away
Away from this hate and pain
away from this faith.
You wanna kill me
cause i don't believe in your god?
I don't know for what this love is for.
This love so fake
This love for faith
What has it brought us?
Hate!
Hate in me!
Hate in you!
Hate in everyone i see!
Hate is killing us
it's killing us inside.
So deep inside.
It's killing me inside.
Jesus is nowhere.
Jesus is nowhere and i can't find.
He's too far away.
He's too far away or i'm just blind.
I don't care anyway.
Anywhere there's no more light in this dark world
in this dark world full of lies.
I'm running away
I'm breakin' my chains away.
Away from this hate and pain
away from this faith.
You wanna kill me
cause i don't believe in your god?
I don't know for what this love is for.
This love so fake
This love for faith
What has it brought us?
Hate!
Hate in me!
Hate in you!
Hate in everyone i see!
Hate is killing us
it's killing us inside.
So deep inside.
It's killing me inside.
You wanna kill me
cause i don't believe in your god?
I don't know for what this love is for.
This love so fake
This love for faith
What has it brought us?
Hate!
Hate in me!
Hate in you!
Hate in everyone i see!
Hate is killing us
it's killing us
so:
Please try to see
and to feel
with you soul.
Don't kill me please
try to forgive.
Then you will find
yourself
The lyrics of Deep Trip's song "Hate" are deeply reflective of a loss of faith in organized religion, and the destructive impact that hate can have on individuals and society as a whole. The opening lines of the song express an inability to locate Jesus, which could be interpreted as a metaphor for feeling lost or questioning one's beliefs. The singer of the song expresses indifference about whether Jesus is black or white, suggesting that race or skin color should not factor into one's faith. However, the lyrics go on to express the dark reality of a world full of hate that has caused the singer to lose faith entirely.
The song's chorus repeats the word "hate" over and over again, emphasizing the destructive power of this emotion. The lyrics suggest that hate has infected not only the singer but also everyone they see. However, the song also suggests a way out of this cycle of hate. The lyrics urge the listener to try to see and feel with their soul, to forgive, and ultimately to find themselves. This suggests a path towards healing and growth beyond the confines of organized religion and hate.
