Mundane signs for thieves
cnd excused passing peeps
Knowing nothing but what they see
Forever maybe
Existence
That infinite instant
To only replay
cgain in our minds
Everyday
So we did what we did
(we did what we did )
I'd do it again
So we did what we did
(we did what we did )
I'd do it again
cnd everyday
Just a waste
Unless you take
Full advantage
Of the place
(We did)
Your minds mistake
If you don't
You better
I hope you can upset her
Enough to free
From the letter
c better
Place
Is where you
Ought to set off
Guaranteed to show off
When you get there
I hope you're aware of the
Mistakes I made on the trail
cnd uh
Hope you can have
c better chance
Of making it
Maybe you can take it
For granted
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
c quiet taste for calligraphy
Mundane signs for thieves
cnd excused passing peeps
Knowing nothing but what they see
Forever maybe
Existence
That infinite instant
Forever gone
To only replay
cgain in our minds
Everyday
Like a guaranteed love stroke
The million dollar question
Right before you went broke
I hope I
Can guarantee
You maybe
You and me
Might not be just the only
Might not be just
Might not
I'm not
I'm not
I'm not
I'm not
The only one
Kick my feet before
My snare kicks down
cnd maybe you and I
Can get down ground
Like I never frown
Pick it up
Like a million eyes
Staring and watching
cs you and I
Disguise ourselves
In the moonlight
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
You can't take nothing
Back now
The lyrics of S.F.A.'s song "So What" seem to convey themes of self-expression, seizing opportunities, and the transient nature of existence. The opening stanza speaks about a "quiet taste for calligraphy," suggesting the desire to convey thoughts and emotions through art and creative expression. The mention of "mundane signs for thieves" implies that even seemingly ordinary symbols or gestures can carry deeper meaning for those who pay attention. The line "Knowing nothing but what they see" suggests a longing to understand the world beyond surface-level observations.
The repetition of "So we did what we did, I'd do it again" in the chorus seems to be a mantra of embracing actions taken and owning the consequences. It implies a sense of conviction and refusal to regret past choices. The following lines allude to the idea that every experience, no matter how fleeting, leaves a lasting impact on our minds and shapes who we are. The phrase "Forever gone, to only replay again in our minds" points to the power of memories and how they can continue to affect us.
The second paragraph explores the notion of making the most of life and not taking opportunities for granted. It emphasizes the importance of seizing moments and fully engaging with one's surroundings. The reference to "taking full advantage of the place" suggests a desire to experience life to its fullest potential and not squander any opportunities.
The following lines seem to address someone directly, encouraging them to take chances and make the most of their own opportunities. The phrase "I hope you can upset her enough to free from the letter" suggests that breaking free from societal expectations and constraints is crucial for personal growth and self-discovery. It encourages the listener to venture to a "better place" where they can truly be themselves and display their talents and strengths.
The repetition of the phrase "You can't take nothing back now" in the final part of the lyrics seems to serve as a reminder that once a moment or opportunity has passed, it can never be undone. It emphasizes the importance of living in the present and making the most of every opportunity. The lyrics overall convey a sense of self-assuredness, the desire to live authentically, and the power of seizing and appreciating the moment.

Good music, but I don´t like the picture . . . mocking over a devastated mother crying for her dead son?
brian peters
so, you dont get the irony? They arent mocking, they are commenting on the fact that people look at these types of images all the time, yet DONT really feel it... hence, the album title " So What?"
