Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Monoxide Child:]
I Grew Up In A Place Called Hell
Way Down Deep Were The Evil Likes To Dwell
You Can Smell All The Trouble In The Air
But Its A Strange Situation Cause No Some Seems To Care
Its Populated By People Of Combinations And Situations
That That Slowly Through Time That Start Pain Me
Everyones A Devil Just Trying To Be God
And For All The Wrong Reasons
And that's Why They Die
I Never Cried
But Its All So Blurry
That The Vision I'm Gettin
Makin Me Worry
And If I Hurry
Then I'm Just Another Rat In The Race
Id Rather Sit Back And Learn From Everybody's Mistakes
Plotin And Plannin Up Out Of This Place
So I Can Save Pace Befor They Elimiate Me
Its Like A Quick Sand Trap
And Its Up To My Chest
And I'm Sinkin So Fast I Need Help

Ya'll Will Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me..(Down)
Ya'll Will Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never (Bring Me Down)

Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me..(Down)
Ya'll Will Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never (Bring Me Down)

I'm Surrounded By Nothing But Thease Walls
Dressed In All Orange Waitin On My Phone Call
Everybody Working Here Is Actin Like God
But None Of Em Relize Its Just A Job
Drop Dirty Cause I Just wouldn't Stop
I Was Sittin Here And All I Could See Is The Cops
This Is What Its Really coming Down Too
If You Violate The Devil Is Gunna Wanna See You
If You Breath Through A Tube And Your Car won't Move
The Devil Is Gunna Wanna Come And See You Too
Pick The Battles You Really Wanna Fight
Cause Sometimes It Can Land You In Hell Over Night
When You Dealin With The Devil You Gota Watch You Step
Cause He Could Really Come And Get You When You Least Expect
Its A Proven Fact Just Ask My Man Jack
And He Just Did A Year Cause He Got Cought With A Sack

Ya'll Will Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me..(Down)
Ya'll Will Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never Bring Me Down
Ya Never (Bring Me Down)

there's A Hell For Anybody Of Any Age
Devil don't Care If Your Scared And Afrid
Its Time To Do Something a lot Parents
That Never Did Find A Way To Try Talk To Thease Kids

And Maybe I Can Put It In Drive And Stop Stalling
Its A Very Fine Line To Walk But You Can Do It
Or Get Outlined By Chawk You Blew It

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Monoxide's song "Bring Me Down" reflect his experiences growing up in a place called "Hell." He describes how it's a place of evil, where trouble is felt in the air, and everyone seems to be a devil trying to be God for all the wrong reasons, leading to their eventual demise. Monoxide himself admits that he's never cried, but the situation he's found himself in is so blurry and worrisome that he feels like he's sinking in quicksand up to his chest. He's determined to plot and plan his way out of this place, so he can save himself before they eliminate him.


In the second verse, Monoxide is surrounded by walls and dressed in all orange, waiting for his phone call. He's in a place where everybody is acting like God, but in reality, it's just a job for them. Monoxide acknowledges that sometimes, dealing with the devil can land you in hell overnight. His best friend Jack was caught with a sack and ended up doing a year for it. Monoxide emphasizes the importance of parents talking to their kids about the devil and how it doesn't discriminate based on race. He wants to get by without falling and put his life in drive to stop stalling. He warns that it's a very fine line to walk, and you can either do it or get outlined by chawk.


Overall, the song is about the struggle of growing up in a difficult environment and navigating through life while trying to avoid being brought down by the devil and the negative influences around you.
