Endzweck Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You talk oppressively behind the heavily-locked door
Ready-loaded gun is always in your pocket
Your hands are shaking, you must be afraid of the revenge
Violent history was multi-repeated until today
But what about the children, are they charged too?
Is there any meaning in life just about pointing out guns to each other?
If passing the anger on to the next is your fate,
You should not think you are the only-one innocent
What we must learn for tomorrow's future is...
Not hatred, it's tolerance
Guilty: Born from sinner parents
What do you think of babies born with the sin, it's not right
What's the meaning in society where weaks never be helped?
If the society is only for strong ones then what have we been learning?
I believe everyone has the equal rights to live
We must make apologies, forgive, be in regrets and never forget
The compensation for hatred is too much to handle
In the song "Tolerance" by Endzweck, the lyrics speak about the presence of fear and violence in society. The singer describes someone who claims to have no fear, but keeps a ready-loaded gun in their pocket and talks oppressively behind a heavily-locked door. The singer wonders if this person is truly unafraid or if they are shaking because they fear retribution. The song then speaks about the repetitive cycle of violence throughout history and questions whether even children are charged with this sin. It asks whether there is any value in life when it is just about pointing guns at each other and reminds listeners that passing anger onto the next generation is not a viable option.
