From within
Excessive Force Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I walk a fine line between right and wrong. Searching for answers, not excuses, sometimes I feel alone. Don't want to look to tomorrow. I'll live my life day to day. Some things I've done I regret, but I'll turn away. From you. Wounds have healed, but scars remain, some friends have gone, I feel no pain. Seasons pass, but I have stayed true, to myself. I've proved my faith. Anger burns from within me. I won't suppress, it's what I need. I'll have revenge, just wait and see. Your blood will flow from you to me. I don't know what you want from within. I don't care what you want, from within. I won't turn the other cheek. Compassion for you, won't get from me. Don't look at me, you're for your self. Extinguish your life, go fuck your guilt. Don't wanna see it. Please don't make me see. You try to deceive through the lies I see. Twisting your views to fit your needs. Better off dead, your futures dim. Malice for you, my hate is from within




Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Excessive Force's song "From Within" are about a person who is constantly struggling with their moral compass. They acknowledge that they have made mistakes in the past and regret them, but are determined to live their life in the present moment and not dwell on the past. Despite feeling isolated and sometimes alone in their journey, they stand true to themselves and their beliefs.


However, the lyrics take a darker turn with the declaration of anger burning from within them. They refuse to suppress it and instead plan revenge on someone who has wronged them. The lyrics show a lack of compassion and a desire for violent retribution. The final lines of the song are particularly harsh, as they express a wish for the person to be dead and a deep hatred that comes from within. The lyrics seem to be about confronting one's demons and struggling to find a balance between righteousness and vengeance.

Don't Be Stupid

Their victim? The criminal who ended up in jail for breaking the law?

It’s interesting how YOU PEOPLE call the criminals victims and the police bad people.

It’s the reason our criminal justice system is a joke and a violent criminal with 25 felonies can be freed to commit more crimes against the public.


But once you’re the victim you’ll be crying at the top of your lungs when you’re on the receiving end of these scum bags.

And perhaps the police won’t be able to or won’t want to help you because they don’t want to be on the news and have their lives destroyed for arresting a criminal.

They definitely shouldn’t still get police benefits. We all know they would have been fired if they didn’t resign. They shouldn’t get benefits.
