Mindless
Okay Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The weak... and the strong
You got the right... you got youuuuur wrong
You got your hot... you got your cold
You got your new... you got your old
You got you high... you got your low
You got you fast... you got your slow
You got your off... you got your on
You got your fear... and you got your gun

You got your bound... your got your free

You got you... I got me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Okay's song Mindless seem to be commenting on the duality and polarity of different aspects of life. The first two lines "The weak... and the strong, You got the right... you got youuuuur wrong" suggest that there are opposites in every aspect of life, including power dynamics and morality. The next few lines "You got your hot... you got your cold, You got your new... you got your old" could be talking about the different types of experiences and stages of life that we encounter. The lines "You got you high... you got your low, You got you fast... you got your slow" could be referring to emotional states, such as happiness and sadness, or the pace at which one's life is moving.

The line "You got your off... you got your on" hints at the idea of switching between different states, like turning a switch off and on. The line "You got your fear... and you got your gun" could be referring to the way we protect ourselves from harm, either through fear or force. The line "You got your bound... your got your free" may be talking about the different types of freedom or limitations we experience in our lives. Finally, the last line "You got you... I got me" suggests that we are all different and unique, and we should focus on our own individual experiences rather than comparing ourselves to others.

Overall, the song seems to be about embracing the many different contradictions and complexities of life, while still acknowledging our own individuality.
