Hunter
Pedigree Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fear for your own survival
You can't fight what you are You're still running, from yourself
No escape, from your own hell

Fear, Hunter

Inside you, Inside me
You can't help but be the hunter,

Man the natural born destoryer?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Pedigree's song Hunter speaks about fear, survival, and self-destruction. The phrase "fear for your own survival" suggests that the singer is in a dangerous or threatening situation, and is unable to fight off the danger due to some inherent flaw. This is further emphasized in the lines "you can't fight what you are" and "you're still running from yourself." The fear and lack of control over one's actions in the face of danger is a central theme of the song.

The chorus of "Fear, Hunter" further reinforces this idea, suggesting that the singer is in a constant state of fear and can never fully escape the danger surrounding them. The lines "inside you, inside me" and "you can't help but be the hunter" suggest that this fear and self-destructive behavior is a part of the human condition, and that we are all natural-born destroyers in some sense.

Overall, the lyrics of Hunter give a bleak view of human nature - one that is marked by fear, helplessness, and self-destruction. It suggests that our inherent flaws will always be a part of us, and that we can never fully escape them.
