I AM
Lefay Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am the devil on your back
A little demon in your mind
I am the harvester of hate
A twilight entity of wraith
I always sneak up from behind
The dark anxiety of sin
Is always growing deep within
I am the king of suicide
All that you've lost and tried to hide
I am the master of the art
I'm evil
Seducing, misleading
Disaffected, deceiving
I control your emotions
I set free your mindless - lifes
The harvester of hate
I am the figment of your brain
My mission is to cause you pain
I love to do the things you hate
Take a leap you can not flee
Deliver me your misery
I will vanish, you'll be free
I'm evil
The harvester of hate
Lefay's song "I Am" is a dark and ominous track that explores the inner turmoil and destructive thoughts that can plague a person's mind. The lyrics speak to the idea that there is a little demon within everyone's mind, constantly tempting us towards dark thoughts and actions. The "breath behind your neck" and "devil on your back" refer to this demon's influence, always lurking and tempting us towards evil.
The chorus, "I'm evil, the harvester of hate," further emphasizes this theme of destructive thoughts and emotions. The demon within is portrayed as the "king of suicide" and "master of the art," suggesting that it has complete control over a person's thoughts and actions. The line "I control your emotions, I set free your mindless - lifes" reinforces this idea, suggesting that the demon can even manipulate a person's emotions and decisions.
Ultimately, the song suggests that the only way to defeat this demon and break free from its hold is to confront it head-on and deliver it your own misery. Only then can you hope to be free from the darkness within.
