Those With No Eyes
Jedi Mind Tricks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Intersections in real time
The unbroken circle and dimensions
Of the mind the tie that binds
The eternal tie that defines
The vanity of my insanity in due time
Will shine
The haunted corners of familiar rooms
Yet i'm consumed
With vanishing into thin air
The realization that this shit is
My cross to bear so where
Did I think I could run away to see
The people that decided to
Leave without asking me but we
Decide to wait for happier tomorrows
And find someone so they can
Be distractions from our sorrow
But my distraction's the books and
Paper that I scrawl in
I'm eloquent as summer breeze and
Leaves that have just fallen
I've crawled in a corner hoping
All of this will end
With the knowledge that love is
Just another word for revenge
I who have nothing but the comfort of my sins
I who have nothing but the
Comfort of my friends
I, I who have nothing i, I who have no one
I, I who have nothing i, I who have no one
As I decay
Demons prey above me like a vulture
Ability to endure contradiction is a
High sign of culture
Verbal sculptures, self defacing
It is not God or lunacy that I am facing
But the erasing of the purity
And passion of my words
The herds of cattle babble on
With talk of the absurd but I preferred
To walk away from all the feuds
To find my life is more
Confusing than a rubics cube so I'm subdued
In all my words of verbal prods
To live alone one must be an animal or a God
But it's official
All of my pain is clear as crystal
The natural side of life has
Now been seeming artificial
But I can hit you
And rest assured that I'ma last words
I could give a fuck about
Ya secrets and ya passwords
I get past words and their
Ability to hurt you patience is a virtue and
Knowledge is a commercial
I who have nothing but the
Pain that I've referred to
I who have nothing but the
Pain that I've referred to
Lost among the miracles, I stand alone
And have grown into a being that's
Sitting on top a throne i've known
For many years that I would turn to rust
I find a reason for another breath
Before my return to dust
I become one with science and mathematics
And the rising of the sun i'm numb
To all of those who blind and cannot see
The chastiser of the enemy
Perception requires duality
Inspect your soul
The color of coal inside the body
I have hardly, come across them who's holy
Send them to the chairmen to control thee
Burning of the sun and frigidness of the cold
The battlefield is new but the war is now old
You can never see the merest shadow of a halo
Above the head of evil djin
Who's deadly like tornado
The world has become an aquarium
Full of gaping fish with murderous smiles
I on the other hand stand
On the outside looking in
Writing down murderous vows
I who have nothing but the lack of variation
And I who have nothing
But chains and suffocation
In the song "Those With No Eyes" by Jedi Mind Tricks, the lyrics delve into themes of isolation, self-reflection, and the inherent struggles of life.
The first verse begins with the repetition of "I, I who have nothing," suggesting a sense of emptiness and lacking. The line "Intersections in real time / The unbroken circle and dimensions / Of the mind the tie that binds" portrays a complex and interconnected state of mind. It highlights the struggle to find coherence and meaning within one's thoughts and emotions. The mention of the "vanity of my insanity" suggests that the singer is aware of their own madness but finds comfort in it. The line "Like the night seas under the moon" represents the singer's desire to disappear and escape from reality. They feel consumed by their own thoughts and haunted by their past experiences. The use of the word "distractions" shows their attempt to divert their attention from sorrow through various means, such as books and writing.
In the second verse, the line "As I decay / Demons prey above me like a vulture" illustrates a feeling of being constantly tormented and watched by inner demons. The mention of enduring contradiction as a sign of culture suggests a deep understanding of life's complexities. The singer reflects on the loss of innocence and passion in their words, which has been tainted by experiences and external influences. They choose to distance themselves from conflicts and find solace in solitude. The line "To live alone one must be an animal or a God" highlights the dichotomy of the singer's existence – they are either reduced to primal instincts or elevated to god-like detachment. They express a disdain for the superficial and artificial aspects of life, focusing instead on their ability to provoke through their words.
In the third verse, the singer acknowledges their loneliness and growth into a powerful entity. They have come to terms with their mortality, knowing they will eventually return to dust. The mention of becoming one with science and mathematics represents their pursuit of knowledge and their numbness to the ignorance of others. They touch on the concept of duality and the need for self-examination, urging listeners to examine their souls. The phrase "The color of coal inside the body" suggests a darkness within every individual. The singer contemplates the presence of evil and their role in writing down "murderous vows," possibly referring to expressing their innermost thoughts and frustrations. The mention of chains and suffocation symbolizes the feeling of being trapped and restrained.
Overall, "Those With No Eyes" delves into the complex emotions and thoughts of someone grappling with their existence. It explores themes of isolation, self-reflection, and the struggle to find meaning in life's paradoxes. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of an individual experiencing inner turmoil and attempting to find solace in their own expression and understanding.

The unbroken circle and dimensions
The continuous cycle and varying aspects of existence
Of the mind, the tie that binds
The interconnectedness and influence of our thoughts and beliefs
The eternal tie that defines
The everlasting connection that shapes our identity
The vanity of my insanity in due time will shine
The egotistical nature of my madness will eventually become apparent
Like the night seas under the moon
Similar to the mysterious depths of the ocean illuminated by the moonlight
The haunted corners of familiar rooms
The unsettling presence in familiar yet unsettling places
Yet I'm consumed with vanishing into thin air
However, I am consumed with the desire to disappear without a trace
The realization that this shit is my cross to bear
The understanding that I must endure and suffer through these circumstances
So where did I think I could run away to see
Where did I foolishly believe I could escape to
The people that decided to leave without asking me
The individuals who chose to depart without considering my feelings or desires
But we decide to wait for happier tomorrows
Nevertheless, we choose to hope for better upcoming days
And find someone so they can be distractions from our sorrow
And seek companionship to divert our attention from grief
But my distraction's the books and paper that I scrawl in
However, my solace lies in writing and expressing myself through literature
I'm eloquent as summer breeze and leaves that have just fallen
My words flow effortlessly and gracefully, much like a gentle breeze or freshly fallen leaves
I've crawled in a corner hoping all of this will end
I have retreated to a secluded place, yearning for the conclusion of my struggles
With the knowledge that love is just another word for revenge
Understanding that love can sometimes be fueled by a desire for retaliation
I who have nothing but the comfort of my sins
Despite having nothing else, I find solace in my own wrongdoings
I who have nothing but the comfort of my friends
Having nothing else, I find solace in the companionship of my loved ones
As I decay, demons prey above me like a vulture
While I deteriorate, malevolent forces loom over me, preying on my vulnerabilities
Ability to endure contradiction is a high sign of culture
The capacity to withstand opposing ideas is indicative of intellectual sophistication
Verbal sculptures, self-defacing
My words crafted meticulously, often depreciating my own worth
It is not God or lunacy that I am facing
I am not confronting divinity or insanity
But the erasing of the purity and passion of my words
Rather, I am grappling with the loss of authenticity and fervor in my expressions
The herds of cattle babble on with talk of the absurd
The masses mindlessly chatter about nonsensical matters
But I preferred to walk away from all the feuds
However, I chose to distance myself from all the conflicts
To find my life is more confusing than a Rubik's cube, so I'm subdued
Discovering that my existence is more bewildering than a complex puzzle, leaving me subdued
In all my words of verbal prods
In every piece of provocative language I utter
To live alone, one must be an animal or a God
One must possess either primal instincts or god-like qualities to thrive in solitude
But it's official, all of my pain is clear as crystal
Now it is undeniable, all my suffering is transparent and obvious
The natural side of life has now been seeming artificial
The genuine aspects of existence appear contrived and counterfeit
But I can hit you and rest assured that I'm the last words
But I can strike you and be confident that my actions will have the final impact
I could give a fuck about your secrets and your passwords
I am indifferent towards your confidences and confidential information
I get past words and their ability to hurt you
I surpass mere words and their power to cause you pain
Patience is a virtue and knowledge is a commercial
Displaying patience is commendable, and knowledge has become monetized
I who have nothing but the pain that I've referred to
Having nothing else, I solely possess the anguish I have alluded to
Lost among the miracles, I stand alone
Amidst the extraordinary occurrences, I find myself isolated
And have grown into a being that's sitting on top a throne I've known
And have developed into an individual who has gained power, a position I am familiar with
For many years that I would turn to rust
For a considerable amount of time, I knew that I would eventually deteriorate
I find a reason for another breath before my return to dust
I discover a motivation to continue living before my eventual demise
I become one with science and mathematics and the rising of the sun
I merge with the principles of science and math, as well as the emergence of a new day
I'm numb to all of those who blind and cannot see
I am emotionally unaffected by those who are ignorant and lack insight
The chastiser of the enemy, perception requires duality
The one who reprimands the foe, understanding necessitates considering both sides
Inspect your soul, the color of coal inside the body
Examine your innermost self, the darkness that resides within
I have hardly come across them who's holy
I have rarely encountered individuals who are truly righteous
Send them to the chairmen to control thee
Submit them to those in power who govern and manipulate
Burning of the sun and frigidness of the cold
The scorching heat of the sun and the chilling coldness
The battlefield is new but the war is now old
The specific conflict may be recent, but the overall struggle is longstanding
You can never see the merest shadow of a halo
You will never witness even the faintest hint of a virtuous aura
Above the head of evil djin who's deadly like tornado
Above the malevolent spirit who possesses devastating power like a tornado
The world has become an aquarium full of gaping fish with murderous smiles
The world has transformed into a confined space filled with unsuspecting predators and their sinister grins
I, on the other hand, stand on the outside looking in
In contrast, I observe from the periphery, excluded from their deceptive games
Writing down murderous vows
Committing to writing my intentions of harm
I who have nothing but the lack of variation
Having only sameness and monotony as my possession
And I who have nothing but chains and suffocation
And having nothing else except the restraints and feeling of being stifled
