Internal Affairs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wish you were too
You're preaching and posing
Man you look like a fool
I have done my part
You have no heart
I hate your guts you give us a bad name
You'll suck some dick for some fame
You have no heart
I've earned my respect
I've earned my respect
You should too
I've earned my respect
I've earned my respect
You'll never stay true
Never stay true
The lyrics to Internal Affairs' song "No Heart" appear to be a lamentation of an artist's struggles in a music scene that is dominated by people who are insincere and uncommitted to the craft. The song opens with a harsh rebuke of the artist's peers, as they are described as having no idols left and being fake in their attempts to present themselves as genuine musicians. This criticism is made all the more scathing as the singer indicates that they would prefer if these individuals were gone altogether, suggesting that their presence in the scene is not just unappealing, but actively harmful.
The singer goes on to claim that they have done their part in contributing to the music scene in a meaningful way, unlike the individuals they are criticizing. They suggest that these people have "no heart," implying that they lack the passion and commitment necessary to create art that is genuine and thoughtful. One of the more cutting lines in the song indicates that these poseurs are actively damaging the reputation of others in the music scene, as they "give us a bad name."
The chorus of the song is a repetition of the refrain, "I've earned my respect, you'll never stay true." This seems to suggest a general feeling of frustration and disillusionment with those who are not taking the music seriously, and a call to action for listeners to remain steadfast in their own commitment to the craft. It is possible that the song is meant as a wake-up call or a rallying cry for other artists who might be feeling weighed down by the prevalence of individuals who are not taking their work seriously.
