In Charge
Rangleklods Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm, I'm on top but she is in charge
I'm, I'm on top but she is in charge
Silence is her martial art
I might be on top but she is in charge

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "In Charge" by Rangleklods describe a power dynamic within a relationship where the singer is technically in a position of authority, but their partner holds the true control. The repetition of "I'm on top but she is in charge" emphasizes this tension, as the singer tries to assert their dominance while recognizing the reality of the situation. The line "silence is her martial art" suggests that the partner's power comes from their ability to remain calm and collected, perhaps even in the face of conflict or disagreement with the singer. Overall, the song explores the complexities of power and control within a romantic relationship, where the traditional gender roles may not apply and both partners may have their own unique sources of influence.

Line by Line Meaning

I'm, I'm on top but she is in charge
Although I may appear to be in control, it is actually her who is in charge

I'm, I'm on top but she is in charge
Once again, I must emphasize that despite my position, she remains in control

Silence is her martial art
She possesses the ability to maintain a quiet demeanor as a tool of power and control

I might be on top but she is in charge
Even though I may have the upper hand, she is ultimately the one with authority and power
