Circle
Dj SpongeBoy feat. Slipknot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Give me the dust of my father
Stand on the face of the ancients
Bare the secret flesh of time itself

Follow me (follow me)
I've come so far behind again
Follow me (follow me)
Wish so hard I'm there again
Follow me (follow me)
Follow me (follow me)

All that I wanted the things I had before
All that I needed I've never needed more
All of my questions were answers to my sins
All of my endings are waiting to begin

I know the way but I falter
I can't be afraid of my patience
There's a sacred place Razel keeps safe

Follow me (follow me)
I've seen so much I'm blind again
Follow me (follow me)
I feel so bad I'm alive again
Follow me (follow me)

All that I wanted the things I had before
All that I needed I've never needed more




All of my questions were answers to my sins
All of my endings waiting to begin

Overall Meaning

The song "Circle" by Dj SpongeBoy feat. Slipknot is a powerful and introspective reflection on the journey of life. The lyrics suggest a desire to reconnect with the past, to stand on the shoulders of those who came before, and to understand the secrets of time itself. The repeated refrain of "follow me" suggests a search for a greater purpose or a higher power, and a willingness to take risks and face challenges in order to find it.


The opening lines, "Give me the dust of my father / Stand on the face of the ancients / Bare the secret flesh of time itself," can be interpreted as a call to connect with one's ancestors and to seek wisdom and understanding from the past. The reference to "the secret flesh of time itself" suggests a desire to unlock the mysteries of the universe and to understand the deeper meaning of existence.


The second verse suggests a sense of longing for something lost or forgotten: "All that I wanted the things I had before / All that I needed I've never needed more." The lyrics go on to suggest that the answers to life's questions may lie in our own mistakes and shortcomings: "All of my questions were answers to my sins / All of my endings are waiting to begin."


Overall, "Circle" is a powerful and thought-provoking song that encourages listeners to reflect on their own journey and to seek answers to life's most profound questions.

Drowning deep in my sea of loathing
Broken your servant I kneel
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems what's left of my human side
Is slowly changing in me
(Will you give in to me?)

Looking at my own reflection
When suddenly it changes
Violently it changes (oh no)
There is no turning back now
You've woken up the demon in me

Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me

I can see inside you, the sickness is rising
Don't try to deny what you feel
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems that all that was good has died
And is decaying in me
(Will you give in to me?)

It seems you're having some trouble
In dealing with these changes
Living with these changes (oh no)
The world is a scary place
Now that you've woken up the demon in me

Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me

Oh, ah, ah, ah, ah
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up come on get down with the sickness
You fucker get up come on get down with the sickness
Madness has now come over me
