Re-Birth
Ill Niño Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's all the drugs

Corre, perro come mierda
This is what you get now
You think that you can get away, you little pig
Corre, perro come mierda
This is what you get now
You think that you can get away, you little pig

Sucker
Nothing left to lose
Nothing left to choose and suffer
Everything you do comes back and

Get what you're gonna get, when you get, what you get
To live inside of me
Learn what you're gonna learn, when you learn how to burn
To live inside of me

Then, I was only just a boy
Dying young and growing old
But I know what I knew was wrong
My whole family lied to me
By their rules, I cannot be
Led by the lies out of my face

Get what you're gonna get, when you get, what you get
To live inside of me
Learn what you're gonna learn, when you learn how to burn
To live inside of me

Nothing you did
You left me here for dead
Something in me
Just let me be

Get what you're gonna get, when you get, what you get
To live inside of me
Learn what you're gonna learn, when you learn how to burn
To live inside of me

And if you think you got the answer
Well, think again 'cause you know better than this yourself
So ask that question to yourself
So ask yourself just who you are
Where you've been, what you know
Where you go

Get what you're gonna get, when you get, what you get
To live inside of me
Learn what you're gonna learn, when you learn how to burn
To live inside of me

Nothing you did
You left me here for dead
Something in me
Just let me be

Nothing you did
You left me here for dead
Something in me
Just let me be

Corre, perro come mierda
This is what you get now
You think that you can get away, you little pig
Corre, perro come mierda
This is what you get now
You think that you can get away, you little pig
Corre, perro come mierda




This is what you get now
You think that you can get away, you little pig

Overall Meaning

The song Re-Birth by Ill Niño is deep and thought-provoking. The lyrics seem to be a commentary on drug addiction and the consequences that come with it. The repetition of the phrase "Corre, perro come mierda" which means "Run, dog eat shit" in Spanish, suggests the frustration and anger towards the person who is addicted. The use of "pig" and "sucker" further support this idea of resentment towards the addict.


As the song progresses, the lyrics delve deeper into the psyche of the singer. The lines "Nothing left to lose / Nothing left to choose and suffer" suggest that the person has hit rock bottom and has no choice but to suffer the consequences of their actions. The use of the phrase "live inside of me" suggests that the addiction has taken over the person's life, and they are no longer in control of their actions.


Additionally, the lines "My whole family lied to me / By their rules, I cannot be / Led by the lies out of my face" suggest a possible familial influence on the singer's addiction. The mention of being "led by lies" suggests that the person may have been misled or influenced by their family, leading them down the path of drug addiction.


In conclusion, Re-Birth is a deeply introspective and reflective song that touches on themes of addiction, loss, and consequences. The use of repetition and subtle nuances in the lyrics help to paint a complex picture of the singer's story.
