Reborn
My Enemies & I Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everything I hate
Heavily loaded and ready to retaliate
The voice of my shadow
Calling out my name
Telling me I'm entitled
To every fucking thing
Get the fuck out my face
I tear tough anything
Nothing left in my wake
Yeah, I'm the thorn
The demon reborn
The filthy, rotten flesh of the dead fully restored
Trapped inside
Until it changes
I am the worthless
I am the hated
I am the one that you created
I am regret for words unspoken
I'm every promise that you've broken
I don't need you to save me
I am the wicked
I am the chosen
I am the hand that drags you down to nothing
Why waste my energy
Conscience erased
Besides, I think I've realized I like the sulfuric taste
There's a digging in my stomach
That's crawling up the sides
The feeling of betrayal
By shifting eyes
Follow me down
To the deepest part of your mind
Every tortured thought you've ever had I'll bring it to life
There's nothin' gonna stop me
The spirit divine
You'll be lucky motherfucker
If you make it out alive
I'm paralyzed
I can't escape it
I am the worthless
I am the hated
I am the one that you created
I am regret for words unspoken
I'm every promise that you've broken
I don't need you to save me
I am the wicked
I am the chosen
I am the hand that drags you down to nothing
There's a few others in here with me
But I don't need saving
I can feel all my insides decaying
But I don't need saving
There's a few others in here with me
But I don't need saving
I am the worthless
The one you created
Every promise you've broken
Yeah, I am the chosen
Trapped inside
Until it changes
I'm paralyzed
I can't escape it
I am the worthless
I am the hated
I am the one that you created
I am regret for words unspoken
I'm every promise that you've broken
I don't need you to save me
I am the wicked
I am the chosen
I am the hand that drags you down to nothing
I am the worthless
The one that you created
I don't need you to save me
I am the hated, the hand that drags you down to nothing
The lyrics of "Reborn" by My Enemies & I are expressive and dark as they describe a person who is heavily burdened by their own thoughts and emotions. The singer is addressing someone who created them in some way, blaming them for their current state of mind. Every mistake and every hated thing has created a monster ready to retaliate, and the voice of the singer's shadow continuously calls out their name, telling them they are entitled to everything. The singer wants to be left alone to do as they please; they believe that they have earned their position and that nothing can stand in their way.
The singer feels trapped inside their own mind, unable to escape their own thoughts and feelings. They are aware of their wrongdoings, regretful of words unspoken, and recognize that they are seen as worthless and hated. However, the singer embraces their wickedness and accepts that they have been chosen to be the hand that drags others down. They claim that they do not need saving and that they are the ones in control of their own fate.
