Words Of Wisdom
Jinjer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Word is a sword
Word is a gun always ready for war
Mistakenly taken
Gracefully faken
A hill of shit is played off as a stack of gold
Filtered through restrictions
Destiled passive perception
Go in one ear and out the other
Yet untold, still unheard
A shield built here, against warning and alert
Yet untold, still unheard
A shield built against warning and alert
For consciousness never bothered
For the minds never taught to listen
My words of wisdom
Go in one ear and out the other
For consciousness never bothered
For the minds never taught to listen
My words of wisdom
Go in one ear and out the other
Like cattle chew your grass
Of recreating advertising
Ears are deaf, not customized
To what is meaningful and wise
Sleeping notion lies unconscious
Under absurd lullaby
It's time I wake it up with a bullet of
Words of wisdom in my mind
Yet untold, still unheard
A shield built here, against warning and alert
Yet untold, still unheard
A shield built against warning and alert
For consciousness never bothered
For the minds never taught to listen
My words of wisdom
Go in one ear and out the other
For consciousness never bothered
For the minds never taught to listen
My words of wisdom
Go in one ear and out the other
In “Words of Wisdom,” Jinjer explores the power of language and the ways in which it can be both a gift and a weapon. The lyrics describe language as a double-edged sword, capable of inflicting damage and inciting conflict as well as inspiring and enlightening. The lines “Word is a gift / Word is a sword / Word is a gun always ready for war” underline the duality of language, its potential to be used for both good and harm.
The song goes on to critique the restricted and conditioned ways in which we process language, suggesting that our ability to truly listen and understand is limited. The lines “Filtered through restrictions / Distilled passive perception” point to the ways in which our perceptions of language are influenced by social constructs and ingrained biases.
Despite this, the singer is determined to share her “words of wisdom” and encourages others to wake up from their “absurd lullaby.” The repetition of the phrase “For consciousness never bothered / For the minds never taught to listen” emphasizes the need for greater awareness and empathy in the world.
Overall, “Words of Wisdom” is a passionate call to action, urging listeners to recognize the power of language and use it for positive change.

@theshapeeternal_8388
much agreed. I can't get enough of this band!
@wendywonka2925
Tati the best female singer in my eyes too, she blows the competition out of the water with her vocal range. MY goodness!, when tati sings 'I want it' metal sounds so brutal in Ukrainian, I've never wanted to learn it before, but how I do just to sing along with that song! I even found myself looking up the cyrillic alphabet the other day XD XD XD
@Stadno
She is Ukrainian? WHAAT? Wouldn't have picked it, I'm Ukrainian myself. I'm just discovering this band. They got my attention.
