Prodigy The Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm the fear addicted, a danger illustrated
I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter
You're the firestarter, twisted firestarter
I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter
I'm the bitch you hated, filth infatuated, yeah
I'm the pain you tasted, fell intoxicated
You're the firestarter, twisted firestarter
I'm the self inflicted, mind detonator, yeah
I'm the one infected, twisted animator
I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter
You're the firestarter, twisted firestarter
I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter starter

My Dad always joked about how he wanted this played at his funeral. Then in 2018 he took his own life, only a few months before Keith did the same thing. Me and my brother wanted it played at the cremation service but we got overruled (I guess it may not have been to everyone's taste!). Shame as it would have been a great way to honour his sense of humour. At least we got to play it at the wake.

Funny how the people that attended the funeral process had the last word about the music.. may ur dad Rest in Peace bro! He is in a better place i can assure u! 🙏❤️
@ssjwes
Well your Dad didn't ask for it to be played(seriously) so I can see why you'd back down. If he really wanted it, I hope you would've told everyone to f off and if the funeral home didn't allow it, I'd blare it on the radio after everything was over.
I lost my Dad last year(illness) in July, 5 days after my birthday. He tried to take his own life(with my shotgun) months before and I stopped him. My mother did the same(but she shot herself .22 rifle, survived, died later of illness) when I was a kid. They're both in a better place. This world is doo doo. Glad I don't have kids. I'd go nuts worrying.
edit for clarity?
