Let It Out!
Greenleaf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All these men with power
They'll make you run, they'll make you crawl
Can't wait for you to slip and fall
Let it out tonight
Just get it out,
Let it out tonight
Let it out tonight
Just let it out,
Let it out tonight
Lose yourself, just get it out
Whistles blow and the torches glow, can you see it in your head
A final fix and then one last pick before it all turns red
Pretty, passed out on the floor
People passing door to door
Pillowcases made of snow
It's way much colder than before
Let it out tonight
Just let it out,
Let it out tonight
Lose yourself, just let it out
So let it out tonight
Just let it out,
Let it out tonight
Lose yourself, just let it out
Whistles blow and the torches glow, can you see it in your head
A final fix and then one last pick before it all turns red
Whistles blow and the torches glow, can you see it in your head
A final fix and then one last pick before it all turns red
Let it out tonight
Just let it out,
Let it out tonight
Lose yourself, just let it out
So let it out tonight
Just let it out,
Let it out tonight
Lose yourself, just let it out
The lyrics of Greenleaf's "Let It Out!" showcase frustration and struggle in life as well as an appeal to open up and express oneself. The first verse describes the oppressive nature of the corporate world where people with power make workers run and crawl, creating an environment where making mistakes is inevitable. The chorus "let it out tonight, just get it out" is a call for the release of built-up emotions and stress. The lyrics further paint a picture of chaos and destruction, with references to whistles blowing, torches glowing, and everything ultimately turning red. The imagery of "pillowcases made of snow" points towards something calm and pristine while highlighting the significant change for the worse.
The final verse highlights a person passed out on the floor, while people pass by them; this suggests that people may not care about others unless it's convenient. The last line, "it's way much colder than before," reinforces that the situation is miserable and deteriorating. The lyrics of Greenleaf's "Let It Out!" offer a glimpse into the human psyche, demanding a call-to-action to express the vulnerability people feel daily. Although the song's message focuses on expressing feelings, there is an underlying understanding that some people have a breaking point and need to let their feelings out before things go awry.
