God
Minus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lyrics to Minus's song "God" examine the concept of rebellion against those in power who consistently exploit and oppress those beneath them. The opening line, "Another day trampled under your feet," speaks to the sense of hopelessness and powerlessness felt by those who are constantly being mistreated. The following lines, "weeds of discord. we're your disease," further emphasize the idea that those in power are responsible for creating division and suffering among the population.
The lyrics also touch upon the idea of taking action against this oppression in the form of rebellion. The line "a brick through your window so you know we care" suggests a desire to make their point known through actions rather than words. The words "exile on market street" paint a picture of a group of people who feel alienated and pushed to the margins of society.
The final lines of the song, "you think you're safe from the suffering. you ignore the weak and the poor. a violent opposition is at the door," directly call out those in power for ignoring the suffering and poverty of the less fortunate. The song suggests that those who have been pushed to the fringe of society will eventually come together in a violent opposition to fight back against oppression.
