Failure
Internal Affairs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Truth and honor lies in my chest
My heart is strong, your's is weak
Freedom from you is what I seek
Try to break me, you have failed me
Bottom feeder searching for higher ground
But the smell of bullshit fills the air
Whenever you're around
Come to the fore and step out
You can't reside here anymore
I'm holding boulders while a pebble's what fills your hand
I know you're worthless right now
There's no need to remand
You're just a failure, your kind is expected to drop
I'm standing firm in my ways
With intentions to stop

I push myself, I strive for the best
I work hard and have high aspirations
Truth and honor lies in my chest
I value honesty and morality
My heart is strong, your's is weak
I have courage and conviction, while you lack those qualities
Freedom from you is what I seek
I want to be free from your negative influence
Try to break me, you have failed me
You have tried to harm me, but I have not been defeated
Bottom feeder searching for higher ground
You are a weak and insignificant person trying to elevate your position
But the smell of bullshit fills the air
Your lies and insincerity are very apparent
Whenever you're around
Your presence is unpleasant
You failed me and you've let down even more
You have disappointed me and others as well
Come to the fore and step out
Take responsibility for your actions and leave
You can't reside here anymore
I don't want you in my life anymore
I'm holding boulders while a pebble's what fills your hand
I am strong and capable, while you are weak and ineffectual
I know you're worthless right now
I recognize that you have no value at the moment
There's no need to remand
There is no point in keeping you around
You're just a failure, your kind is expected to drop
You are a loser and I anticipate your inevitable downfall
I'm standing firm in my ways
I am confident in my beliefs and actions
With intentions to stop
My goal is to put an end to your negative impact on my life
