Don't lose yourself
Man with a Mission Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pop goes the weasel
we're bored to
death without a doubt
Let go the reason and find out
what's it all about you know
I want out
We're pissed with all the shit
you know I want out
Look at the people hey all
they do is live'n flout
Crap of the year come on
let's just hear your coming out
you know I want out
I'm pissed with all the shit
come on I want out
有限、無限を言い聞かせても
所詮、無縁なこの世界
機能不全に陥るのなら
手に入れて切り崩せ
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You can trust someone else.
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You need to help yourself
Come in, come in, come in,
come in
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You can trust someone else.
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You need to help yourself
Come in, come in, come in,
come in
Let in the rhythm and music.
Everybody shout.
Brush up
your mind and go choose it,
take me somewhere out
you know I want out
I'm pissed with all the shit
you know I want out
有償、無償を問いただしても
諸行無常のこの世界
近い未来を憂うのなら
手を合わせ祈り歌え
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You can trust someone else.
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You need to help yourself
Come in, come in, come in,
come in
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You can trust someone else.
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You need to help yourself
Come in, come in, come in,
come in

Wake up and trust what you feel.
Wake up and know
what's the deal.
Wake up and trust what you feel.
Wake up and know
what's the deal.
You know, Look at the world
hey all they do is live'n flout
Crap of the year come on
let's just hear your coming out
you know I want out
I'm pissed with all the shit

Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You can trust someone else.
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You need to help yourself
Come in, come in, come in,
come in
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You can trust someone else.
Hey boy, don't lose yourself
You need to help yourself




Come in, come in, come in,

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Man with a Mission's song Don't lose yourself address the feeling of boredom and dissatisfaction with life. The lines "We're bored to death without a doubt/Let go the reason and find out what's it all about you know" express a desire to break free from mundane life and find purpose. The chorus emphasizes the importance of trusting oneself and taking action, as well as seeking help when needed.


The verses contrast the world's impermanence ("諸行無常のこの世界") with the urge to break out of the monotony of daily life. The phrase "Crap of the year come on let's just hear your coming out" implies a desire to seek out new experiences and ideas, rather than mindlessly following the popular trends.


Musically, the song is characterized by its energetic rock sound, with prominent guitar riffs and drums. The lyrics are delivered in both English and Japanese, reflecting the band's bilingual status.

This song is absolutely amazing and all... BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT THIS GEM OF A MUSIC VIDEO??????? I mean, it seriously feels like they joked about making the most early 2000's generic rock music video, enhanced by 100x... and actually acomplished such a feat XD
