Let Me Go
Flinch feat. The Villains Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of what? I am unsure
I have this blunt up in my hand
& In the other, my liquor
I'm sure that If I was a quitter, I would drop L to the floor
& I would stop drowning my conscience in the vodka that I pour
I am so persistent, sober living, so malignant
Hoping fifths & rolling spliffs
Open up your throat & speak a lie, there's no forgiveness
I was hoping I could show these hoes, but they never listen
I'm a clever kid &
I can severe shit &
Forget about your face & trust me bitch, I'll never miss it
That's the truth, ask the crew that I keep around
I nap until the afternoon, been sleeping sweet & sound
I will admit it hurt a bit, but that won't keep me down
Cause soon you're just a chapter I don't want to read aloud
But I swear I'd be embarrassed if I tear it out
Cause how can you repair if what ain't there is all you care about?
Yo!
Pass the mic to Villain, you can witness me devour
So many bitches on my shit list, I can list it for an hour, yo!
Pipe dreams take dark roads
That's where all my time goes
This is that different flow
From the backwoods, Detroit's own Villain
Like the Joker, cause I just wanna' watch the world burn &
You can keep the money, that is none of my concern, man
I'm just tryna' send a message
Get inside these people's heads &
Ease their pain, just like Excedrin
Just like Excedrin, the perfect kind of medicine
I know who's been here all along, No I'm not letting you in
Back in the day when I almost took off, the people said they knew him
You must be confusing me with some other dude
I can't sleep when I'm under viewed
I'm a beast in the studio
Guarantee that my new shit blow
They'll all freak & scream at my shows
But I guess that's how it goes
They say he froze in snow
When it rains, it fucking pours
Clog drains & flood the roads
But I guess that's how it goes
They say he froze in snow
When it rains, it fucking pours
Clog drains & flood the roads
Solar
Test of time, I thought we lasted boo
But I never envisioned reminiscing all my past with you
Everything was perfect, said that what we had was magical
You lied to me with smile on your face, not understandable
If you ain't want me, should of left me where you found me
All I see is dark around me, you don't give two shits about me
I fucking tried, I fucking tried... Well, you fucking lied!
I fucking cried
Honestly, I wish you'd fucking d...
No I don't, I wish you well
I hope in every area in life that you excel
I hope that it was right for you to leave me here in hell
& Act as if you do not hear me when right next to you I yell
& I'm screaming "baby please"
The feeling of without you is as if my heart has seized
But you never apologize or help to stop the bleeding
You inflicted on my soul
So let me rot, I'll let you leave
Peace!
The lyrics to Flinch Ft. The Villains’ song “Let Me Go” express the singer's struggles with addiction and heartbreak. The opening lines reflect the conflict between the singer's desire for the substance of their addiction and the pressure from others to let it go. The singer is persistent in their behavior, choosing to drink and smoke to avoid confronting their problems.
The lines "hoping fifths and rolling spliffs will keep me from unloading when I go ballistic" suggest that the singer is struggling with anger issues as well. The reference to showing "these hoes" reveals a misogynistic mindset, and the lines "I'm a clever kid & I can severe shit" suggest a viciousness in the singer's personality. However, they also show a level of self-awareness, acknowledging the ways in which their own behavior is destructive.
Villain's verse continues this theme of anger and pain, focusing on the pressure of fame and the need to be recognized for one's talent. The line "I'm a beast in the studio, guarantee that my new shit blow" reflects the desire for validation from others. The line "if you ain't want me, should of left me where you found me" speaks to the pain of heartbreak, and the reference to feeling like "my heart has seized" adds to the emotional impact of the song. In the final lines, the singer expresses both anger and resignation, wishing their former partner well but also expressing a desire to be left alone.
Line by Line Meaning
They tellin' me to let it go
I am being told to move on from something, but I am unsure of what exactly that thing is
Of what? I am unsure
I am confused about the situation at hand
I have this blunt up in my hand
I am smoking a marijuana cigarette
& In the other, my liquor
I am holding an alcoholic beverage in my other hand
I'm sure that If I was a quitter, I would drop L to the floor
If I were a weaker person, I would succumb to my vices and fall to the ground
& I would stop drowning my conscience in the vodka that I pour
I would cease ignoring my morals and masking my guilt with alcohol
I am so persistent, sober living, so malignant
I am aggressively addicted to the lifestyle of sobriety and misery that I lead
Hoping fifths & rolling spliffs
I am relying on drinking fifth bottles of liquor and smoking marijuana to cope with my issues
Will keep me from unloading when I go ballistic
These things will hopefully prevent me from having a mental breakdown
Open up your throat & speak a lie, there's no forgiveness
If you do not speak the truth, you will not be forgiven
I was hoping I could show these hoes, but they never listen
I thought I could prove these women wrong, but they refuse to hear me out
I'm a clever kid &
I am an intelligent person
I can severe shit &
I am capable of cutting people out of my life
Forget about your face & trust me bitch, I'll never miss it
I will remove you from my life and forget about you, regardless of your appearance or past relationship with me
That's the truth, ask the crew that I keep around
My friends can confirm that what I say is true
I nap until the afternoon, been sleeping sweet & sound
I sleep in late and feel rested
I will admit it hurt a bit, but that won't keep me down
Although it was painful, I will not let it impact me negatively
Cause soon you're just a chapter I don't want to read aloud
I will eventually forget about you and not want to talk about you anymore
But I swear I'd be embarrassed if I tear it out
I would feel ashamed if I tried to erase the memory of you completely
Cause how can you repair if what ain't there is all you care about?
It is impossible to fix a relationship if one person is not invested in it
Pass the mic to Villain, you can witness me devour
I am handing the microphone to Villain, watch me perform exceedingly well
So many bitches on my shit list, I can list it for an hour, yo!
I have so many people that I dislike, I could list them for an hour
Pipe dreams take dark roads
Unrealistic hopes and wishes can lead a person down a negative path
That's where all my time goes
I spend a lot of time thinking about these pipe dreams
This is that different flow
My rap style is unique
From the backwoods, Detroit's own Villain
I am a rapper from the backwoods of Detroit, and my name is Villain
Like the Joker, cause I just wanna' watch the world burn &
I am like the character the Joker, because I enjoy chaos and destruction
You can keep the money, that is none of my concern, man
I do not care about money, so you can keep it
I'm just tryna' send a message
I am attempting to communicate a message through my music
Get inside these people's heads &
I want to influence the thoughts and emotions of those who listen to my music
Ease their pain, just like Excedrin
I want to alleviate the pain of others, much like the painkiller Excedrin
Just like Excedrin, the perfect kind of medicine
Excedrin is the ideal remedy
I know who's been here all along, No I'm not letting you in
I recognize who has been with me through thick and thin, but I am not letting anyone else in
Back in the day when I almost took off, the people said they knew him
When I was first gaining fame, people claimed that they knew me, even though they did not
You must be confusing me with some other dude
You are mixing me up with someone else
I can't sleep when I'm under viewed
I feel restless when I have not gained a lot of attention
I'm a beast in the studio
I am incredibly skilled and entertaining when I am making music
Guarantee that my new shit blow
I promise that my new music will be amazing
They'll all freak & scream at my shows
My fans will be ecstatic and loud at my concerts
But I guess that's how it goes
That is just how things happen, I do not have control over it
They say he froze in snow
People spread rumors and lies about me
When it rains, it fucking pours
When things go wrong, they go very wrong
Clog drains & flood the roads
Problems can pile up and cause chaos
Solar
This is the start of a new segment of the song
Test of time, I thought we lasted boo
I thought our relationship would stand the test of time
But I never envisioned reminiscing all my past with you
I did not anticipate the longing I would feel for the past with you
Everything was perfect, said that what we had was magical
We had an amazing and magical relationship
You lied to me with smile on your face, not understandable
You lied to me, and I cannot comprehend why
If you ain't want me, should of left me where you found me
You should have left me alone if you did not want me
All I see is dark around me, you don't give two shits about me
I am surrounded by negativity, and you do not care about me
I fucking tried, I fucking tried... Well, you fucking lied!
I put forth effort in our relationship, but you still lied to me
I fucking cried
I have shed tears over this situation
Honestly, I wish you'd fucking d...
I am angry and upset, but I ultimately wish you well
No I don't, I wish you well
I want you to be happy and successful
I hope in every area in life that you excel
I hope you succeed in all aspects of your life
I hope that it was right for you to leave me here in hell
I hope that it was the correct decision for you to leave me in this difficult situation
& Act as if you do not hear me when right next to you I yell
You are ignoring me even though I am trying to talk to you
& I'm screaming "baby please"
I am begging you to stay with me
The feeling of without you is as if my heart has seized
I feel like my heart has stopped without you by my side
But you never apologize or help to stop the bleeding
You never say sorry or try to make things better
You inflicted on my soul
You caused me emotional harm
So let me rot, I'll let you leave
I will let you go and move on, even if it means I will be in pain
Peace!
The song is ending with the word peace.

This sounds like classic old school dubstep. How can anyone hate on that?
That's some nice dubstep right there.
@t00nvisi0n
10 years later and this track is still underrated! But happened to Flinch though? This was his best track! Love the intro!
@skafskafskaf
A true tastemaker, Flinch consistently delivers a wide selection of cuts riding between the UK funky, club, moombahton, techno, garage, and dubstep genre lines. There is an undeniable buzz in the bass music world for Flinchʼs recent productions on labels like SMOG and Trouble & Bass records, but most notably the massive "World On Fire," which has often been championed by Skrillex, 12th Planet, and Datsik and is making a huge impact with audiences worldwide.
@OSBDxNERDFIGHTER
This honestly has the potential to be a classic. It's soooo fucking good. It NEEDS more views. Honestly.

Końcówka mnie miażdży, dobry kawałek

Real dubstep of Today would make your jaw drop to the floor, because it would be presented on a far more complex level, that you end I would expect it to. That's awesome. ;D
