Someone
King K.O.N.G. Lyrics

In "Someone" by King K.O.N.G., the singer reveals feelings of guilt and hesitation from the beginning of their relationship. The lyrics portray a sense of knowing that the relationship is problematic, as highlighted in the line, "Knew that it was wrong the first night I met you." Despite this realization, there are conflicting emotions expressed when the partner professes love, creating a sense of turmoil within the singer.

The imagery of the house with "blood runs cold" and "secret codes" suggests a sense of secrecy and dysfunction within the relationship. The idea of tearing it all down and setting it on fire conveys a desire to break free from the toxic dynamic. The act of watching it burn to the ground symbolizes a necessary destruction, even though it causes pain. The repetition of "You'll find someone who loves you better" indicates a form of self-sacrifice for the partner's well-being, suggesting a desire for them to find happiness elsewhere.

The singer acknowledges their own destructive tendencies, mentioning how they have always been drawn to causing harm, likening it to "picking wings off of angels." This admission of guilt and acknowledgment of their own flaws adds a layer of complexity to the song. The repeated refrain of "find someone who loves you better" emphasizes the belief that the partner deserves more than what the singer can offer, even if it means letting go.

The song concludes with a sense of resolution and hope for the future, as the singer encourages the partner to find someone who can love them better. The repetition of "You'll find the one, you'll find someone" conveys a sense of optimism and acceptance of the inevitable separation. Ultimately, "Someone" by King K.O.N.G. explores themes of guilt, self-awareness, and the bittersweet notion of parting ways for the sake of finding true love and fulfillment.
