(A slave to)
(A slave to your)
(A slave to your sub-)
(A slave to your subcon-)
(A slave to your subconsc-)
(A slave to your subconscious)
My dear friend I have a message for you
But secretly you're hurting me
Following your instincts
Making you think that you are doing the right thing
But I think you are hurting me
I wish we had control over our subconscious
We'd be just like programs
But I don't think that'd be good for us
Utopian illusion
Don't you see that we are desperate for attention
And I don't think that's good for us
And you act like
You got it all together
In delusion
Enslaved by your subconscious
And your mind is
As messed up as mine
In confusion
A slave to your subconscious
And you act like
You got it all together
In delusion
Enslaved by your subconscious
And your mind is
As messed up as mine
In confusion
A slave to your subconscious
(A slave to your subconscious)
(A slave to your subconscious)
(A slave to your subconscious)
(A slave to your subconscious)
Sometimes I wish
I could be another being
To be a different kind of animal
Although I shouldn't wish for that
Sometimes I wish
That I suffered from retrograde amnesia
I really shouldn't wish for that
And you act like
You got it all together
In delusion
Enslaved by your subconscious
And your mind is
As messed up as mine
In confusion
A slave to your subconscious
And you act like
You got it all together
In delusion
Enslaved by your subconscious
And your mind is
As messed up as mine
In confusion
A slave to your subconscious
My dear friend I have a message for you
You're just trying to help
But secretly you're hurting me
Following your instincts
Making you think that you are doing the right thing
But I think you are hurting me
I wish we had control over our subconscious
We'd be just like programs
But I don't think that'd be good for us
Utopian illusion
Don't you see that we are desperate for attention
And I don't think that's good for us
And you act like
You got it all together
In delusion
Enslaved by your subconscious
And your mind is
As messed up as mine
In confusion
A slave to your subconscious
And you act like
You got it all together
In delusion
Enslaved by your subconscious

As messed up as mine

The lyrics of R.Y.O.T.'s song "Slave" depict a person who feels trapped and controlled by another individual. The singer cannot concentrate or form their own thoughts because they are only able to feel one sensation or strain. They try to feign interest in the boring and unimportant things the other person is saying, but they cannot escape the feeling of being controlled. The repetition of "you decide for me again" highlights the individual's lack of agency in their life, as they feel like they are being forced to do things against their will.
The lyrics go on to describe the impact of this control on the individual's life. The silence around them is filled with violence, and they feel like their body is no longer their own. They become someone who they cannot reason with and cannot control. The repetition of "You make me be your perfect slave" reinforces the idea that the person feels like they do not have control over their life and actions.
Overall, this song expresses the feelings of entrapment and powerlessness that can arise when someone else takes control of our lives. The repetition of the phrase "perfect slave" drives home the point of the lack of freedom and autonomy that the person singing is experiencing.
Line by Line Meaning
No words come through my head
I am so emotionally drained that I cannot muster up any interest in what you say.
Only one sensation only one strain
All I can feel is a single emotion, and it's overwhelming and exhausting me.
I try so hard to pretend to be interested
Even though I'm completely disengaged, I'm forcing myself to at least appear attentive.
In stupidities you are saying
I don't find any value or significance in the things you're saying.
Then you decide for me again
You keep taking away my autonomy and making decisions for me without my input or consent.
You make me be your perfect slave
You are controlling me so completely that I am no longer my own person; I am utterly submissive to you.
Too much violence in this silence
The unacknowledged tension and unspoken frustrations between us are becoming unbearable and painful.
My own motions don't belong to me anymore
I don't feel like I have any agency over myself or my actions.
My body becomes another person
I feel like I'm no longer connected to my own physical form; it's as if I've been replaced by someone else entirely.
Someone else I can't reason
This 'other' version of me that's taken over is irrational and unpredictable, and I don't understand it.
You make me be your perfect slave
Your dominance and manipulation have made me completely subservient and obedient to you.
You make me be your perfect slave
I am so under your control that I am nothing more than a tool for you to use and mold as you see fit.
You make me be your perfect slave
My identity and sense of self have been erased; I exist only to fulfill your every desire and whim.
You make me be your perfect slave
I am utterly powerless and helpless in the face of your authority and manipulation.

Trivia: 11 of the first 32 caliphs were murdered by fellow Muslims in the cause of Islam (i.e. power)
How's that for a peace loving religion. A fact that is far more salient to the issue of violence in Islam.

They just follow their holy books.

@Rana Ji No, Quran and they don't have any matchings.
Quran has history of the prophets, prophecies, kindness, relationship between a person and Allah (god), ethics, morals, rules for life, about the day of judgement, heaven, hell, account of all human being on the day of judgement, rules for the prophet Muhammed and the early situations of Muslims and many more things and rules are there in the Quran but not so many like only 10% of the Quran teaches rules.
Historical chapters in quran : Surah Qasas, Surah Maryam, Surah Hijr, Surah Isra, Surah Naml, Surah Yusuf, Surah Nuh, Surah Taha, Surah Hud, Surah Kahf, Surah Shu'ara, Surah Buruj, Surah Anbiya, surah Saffat, Surah Saad.
Other chapters are mixed of all qualities like History, rules and commandments, miracles, promise, comfort for the prophet and believers, help and solution, descriptions of paradise and hell, Allahs blessings (water, food, plants, animals, our seeing and hearing, soil for irrigation, fire and more), things of unseen, the day of judgement. Allah's names, attributes, power, might. Allah's knowledge about things, people, heavens and the earth and many more things. (And Allah knows best)
You should think twice before comparing this glorious book with these hate groups like ISIS.
