Power
IT Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You should ask me
About something that I care about
You should ask me
What I mean
But you hate me
But you hate me and you want me dead
It's not too bad
To feel this bad
If I take stuff off my walls
It just takes up space on my floor
I still wanna see you
You're just not where I need to be
But I'll go
(I'll go)
So I can have you next to me
Maybe they can't
Tell that I didn't wash my hair last night
They can't tell I'm
Struggling with the power lines
If I take stuff off my walls
It just takes up space on my floor
I still wanna see you
You're just not where I need to be
But I'll go
(I'll go)
So I can have you next to me
If I take stuff off my walls
It just takes up space on my floor
I still wanna see you
You're just not where I need to be
But I'll go




(I'll go)
So I can have you next to me

Overall Meaning

In "Power," IT expresses a sense of desperation and longing for someone who seems to despise them. The lyrics convey a conflicted state of mind, with a mix of self-doubt and a desire to be close to this person. The first verse suggests that the person should ask IT about something that they genuinely care about, indicating a desire for understanding and connection. However, despite this plea, the person in question harbors hatred towards IT and even wishes for their demise.


IT reflects on their own emotional state, acknowledging that feeling this bad isn't necessarily a terrible thing. There is a sense that they are trying to cope with their pain by removing things from their walls but realize that doing so only creates more clutter on the floor, symbolizing the emotional baggage they carry. IT still yearns to see this person, acknowledging that they are not in the right place for them, but they are willing to go wherever they need to be to have this person beside them.


The repetition of the final chorus emphasizes IT's desire to see this person, even if it means sacrificing their own comfort and being in the wrong place. The lyrics reveal a complex mix of longing, self-doubt, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to be close to someone they care deeply about.

2 Timothy 2:15: Christ is the Key of David, The True Doctrine of God's Holy Word & Spirit = The Seal of God in your forehead [Revelation 7; 9:4].

False teaching is purged: [1 Peter 4:17; Ezekiel 9; Matthew 7:21. The pre-tribulation rapture doctrine is false teaching. 2 Thessalonians 2: Satan comes pretending to be Christ before Christ returns. Don't fall for it. The 5 virgins rejected were beguiled by Satan]; [Mark 13; Luke 21; Matthew 24- the wicked are taken from the field; Christians (the bride of Christ; church) remain working in the field. Christ returns @ the last trump (7th), and not before; 1 Thessalonians 4:17 = 1 Corinthians 15:52 "at the Last trump" = Hebrews 9:26-28 "once in the end;" Christ descends, gathers us unto Himself in the spirit (air) with our ancestors (clouds), and so shall we ever be with the Lord, in Jerusalem (Acts 1:1-11; Zechariah 14:4; John 14-17 = Christ is returning here)]; [Deuteronomy 30:4; Nehemiah 1:9; Isaiah 64:4; Zephaniah 3:8-9; Psalm 37:34; Proverbs 10:30; Matthew 9:37-38; Revelation 6: anti-Christ, not the true Christ. Satan has many roles / offices / horses. Gospel Armor Stand = Wait Upon The LORD, Amen].

Ezekiel 13:20 Wherefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.

Allah did not forbid music. This is a complete fabrication. There is no such ruling in the Holy Qur'an. Music is a wonderful gift from Allah to people. Those who want to discredit Islam fabricate such lies in the name of the Prophet Muhammad.

Аллах не запрещал музыку. Это полная выдумка. В Священном Коране такого постановления нет. Музыка - прекрасный дар от Аллах. Те, кто хочет дискредитировать ислам, используют имя Пророка Мухаммеда, чтобы сфабриковать такую ложь.

Allah no prohibió la música. Esta es una fabricación completa. No existe tal regla en el Sagrado Corán. La música es un regalo maravilloso de Allah para las personas. Aquellos que quieren desacreditar al Islam inventan tales mentiras en nombre del Profeta Muhammad.

Allah müziği yasaklamamıştır. Bu tamamen uydurmadır. Kutsal Kitabımız Kuranı-Kerim'de Allah'ın böyle bir emri yoktur. Müzik Yüce Allah'ın insanlara lütfettiği güzel bir nimettir. İslam'ı bilerekten gözden düşürmek isteyenler hz.Muhammed Peygamberin adını kullanarak böyle yalanlar uyduruyorlar.

لم يمنع الله الموسيقى. هذا تلفيق كامل. لا يوجد مثل هذا الحكم في القرآن الكريم. الموسيقى هدية رائعة من الله للناس. أولئك الذين يريدون تشويه سمعة الإسلام يختلقون مثل هذه الأكاذيب باسم النبي محمد.

上帝并没有禁止音乐。 这是完全的捏造。 《古兰经》中没有这样的规定。 音乐是上帝赐予的美好礼物。 那些想诋毁伊斯兰教的人以先知穆罕默德的名义编造这样的谎言。
