Cut It Loose
Incognito Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've been down but never quite this way before
It's a crime to watch the needle take another soul
Look around see the poison killing people by the score
You've got into something that's leading you nowhere, cut it loose
Yeah, yeah, cut it loose, turn it out
Yeah, yeah, cut it loose, turn it out
Every time you escape into the wilderness
You will find it's stolen just a little more of you
You say you're fine, but it's only your imagination
Such a shame, 'cause you've only got yourself to blame
You've got into something that's leading you nowhere, cut it loose
Yeah, yeah, cut it loose, turn it out
Getting deeper into something, that leaves you with nothing, cut it loose
Yeah, yeah, cut it loose, turn it out
Such a shame, you've only got yourself to blame
You've got into something that's leading you nowhere, cut it loose
Yeah, yeah, cut it loose, turn it out
Getting deeper into something, that leaves you with nothing, cut it loose
Yeah, yeah, cut it loose, turn it out
The lyrics to Incognito's song Cut It Loose talk about the dangers of addiction and the importance of breaking free from it. The first line of the song, "It's July but it's winter in your mind," sets the tone for the rest of the song: the singer is trapped in their own thoughts and feelings, unable to break free. The second line, "You've been down but never quite this way before," suggests that this is not the first time the singer has struggled with addiction.
The song then goes on to describe the devastating effects of addiction: "It's a crime to watch the needle take another soul" and "Look around see the poison killing people by the score." These lines highlight the fact that addiction does not just affect the individual, but also their loved ones and society as a whole.
The chorus of the song provides a clear message: "You've got into something that's leading you nowhere, cut it loose." The repetition of this line emphasizes the importance of breaking free from addiction and finding a healthier path. The lyrics also suggest that addiction only leads to emptiness: "Getting deeper into something, that leaves you with nothing."
The final lines of the song, "Such a shame, you've only got yourself to blame," suggest that the singer is aware of the harm they are causing themselves and others, but is unable to break free from their addiction.
Overall, Cut It Loose is a powerful song about addiction, its devastating effects, and the importance of breaking free from it.
