Blossom
Lake Malice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'd ask to what degree
you've been feeding me a lie
Got me trapped so that I can't fend
I'm a mean to your fucking end
Wasn't easy to 'fight through it' all along
You thought I'd lose it all
At least I'm awake
At least I'm alright
Oh who's to say who's right and who's to blame
But I'm proud I fought to blossom
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
If you want fame, you go and get some
You think I'm spoiling for a fight
I call it speaking up my mind
You got me questioning my right
To build my fort away from you
Play the feminist but you can't stand
When the ladies grow a fucking pair
Got me wondering if you believe in anything you say
Oh who's to say who's right and who's to blame
But I'm proud I fought to blossom
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
If you want fame, you go and get some
Oh who's to say who's right and who's to blame
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
If you want fame, you go and get some
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
But I'm proud I fought to blossom
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
But I'm proud I fought to blossom

Line by Line Meaning
Why play nice with me
Why pretend to be kind to me
I'd ask to what degree
I would inquire about the extent
you've been feeding me a lie
you have been deceitful towards me
Got me trapped so that I can't fend
You have trapped me, leaving me defenseless
I'm a mean to your fucking end
I am merely a tool for your selfish goals
Wasn't easy to 'fight through it' all along
It was difficult to persist and fight against it all
You thought I'd lose it all
You believed I would lose everything
At least I'm awake
At least I am aware of the truth
If leaving is a crime
If choosing to leave is perceived as a wrongdoing
At least I'm alright
At least I am fine
Oh who's to say who's right and who's to blame
Oh, it is impossible to accurately determine who is correct or at fault
But I'm proud I fought to blossom
However, I am proud that I struggled and grew
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
It is painful to admit that you are insignificant without me
If you want fame, you go and get some
If you desire fame, then pursue it yourself
You think I'm spoiling for a fight
You believe I am actively seeking confrontation
I call it speaking up my mind
I consider it voicing my thoughts honestly
You got me questioning my right
You have made me doubt my entitlement
To build my fort away from you
To establish my haven separated from you
Play the feminist but you can't stand
You pretend to advocate for gender equality but you cannot tolerate
When the ladies grow a fucking pair
When women display courage and assertiveness
Got me wondering if you believe in anything you say
You have made me question if you truly believe in what you proclaim
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
It is painful to acknowledge that you are insignificant without me
Oh who's to say who's right and who's to blame
Oh, it is impossible to accurately determine who is correct or at fault
But I'm proud I fought to blossom
However, I am proud that I struggled and grew
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
It is painful to admit that you are insignificant without me
If you want fame, you go and get some
If you desire fame, then pursue it yourself
It hurts to say 'you're nothing without me'
It is painful to acknowledge that you are insignificant without me
But I'm proud I fought to blossom
However, I am proud that I struggled and grew
