Fall
S.O. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My friends love me
But they don't know the truth
I don't want love
And I don't want you
Dying
Kill me now
I have no choice but to drown you out
Kill me now
All this time with nobody there
And nobody helped
Because nobody cares
I'm the friend no one wants to see
This lonely life
Will be the death of me
The death of me
The death of me
The death of me




I'll fall apart
I'll fall apart

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of S.O.'s song "Fall" are a commentary on the current polarized state of society. The opening line "I read the writing on the shit house walls" sets the tone for the rest of the song. It suggests that the message is not one of hope or inspiration, but rather a warning of impending doom. The next line "The lines are drawn, we must stand or fall" is an acknowledgement that people are taking sides and the consequences of this division could have serious consequences.


The repeated phrase "We the people, polarized, can't even think to sympathize" highlights the lack of empathy that has crept into society. People have become so entrenched in their beliefs that they are unwilling or unable to understand the perspective of those on the opposite side. The lines "If there's no justice, there's no peace, we must unite" suggest that the only way to overcome this divide is through collective action.


The last few lines of the song are particularly powerful. "The futures written in the past, etched in the memories of cynicism's laugh" suggests that the future is predetermined by the mistakes of the past. The laughter of cynicism is a reference to the idea that people have given up hope for a better future. The final line "we fall" is a somber warning that if we don't change course, we are heading towards disaster.


Line by Line Meaning

I read the writing on the shit house walls
I have seen the harsh reality of the world.


The lines are drawn, we must stand or fall
There is no middle ground, we must take a stand.


We the people, polarized
We as a society are deeply divided.


Can't even think to sympathize
We are incapable of understanding others' perspectives.


If there's no justice
Without fairness and impartiality,


There's no peace
there can be no tranquility.


We must unite
We need to come together


To get aside
To overcome


The woe and grief
The sorrow and pain


A final stride
One last effort


Must confide
We must trust


May never come to
It may never happen


Save our sorry hides
To protect ourselves from harm.


Go read the writings on the wall, stand or fall
Pay attention to the signs and choose where you stand.


All this talk of race and war
The conversation about racial divide and conflict.


Leaves speechless on the floor
It renders us silent and immobilized.


The futures written in the past
Our future has been predetermined by our history.


Etched in the memories of cynicism's laugh
Apathy and negativity from past experiences shape our future decisions.

Wade told me to speak on it, so let me speak
And if G’s making the beats, then let it breathe
They saying J left, but I'm taking a rain check
Ain't writing no disses to him, it don't make sense
You should pray for a brother, who's strayed to the gutter
Oh, beef is hot like some steak in an oven
You get a lot of views and clicks, man I'm getting used to it
Every other show, here’s the dialogue I usually get
You seen J’s page S.O.? What do you think about what he says S.O.?
Why don't let the beast out the cage S.O.? And tell everybody’s that he's deranged S.O.?
Leave me out, won't take the easy route
You ain't drawing me in easily, that ain't what we about to be honest or where we need to be
Cause when I heard, I ain't go to Twitter
I examined myself like I'm supposed to then I prayed to the Lord like keep me, Lord keep me
I don't wanna play someone, I'm not like Keke
Cause outside of the grace of the God that’s reached me
There goes I, going over the yellow line
Ain't talking some sideline smack, this is my town facts
Ripples that are felt all over in my town that's
Way bigger than I, praise God I'm still here fighting evil inside.
I realize
The same sword they knight you with, they go'n good night you with
Deep inside Im writing this
Mama taught me lessons and yeah still enlightening but that cant take away the pain, not even Vicotin
Yeah these painkillers dont kill pain
I was trying to wait and stay still but I still stayed but I feel shame but knowing my bills paid meaning I dont trust in myself but God's real Grace I'm still screaming it
For those who dont and do believe in it
These rappers boastin' like they're hedonists (heathenists)
But pride come before the Fall
Thats the common law
And man's flaw is to think that he's above it all
Throw the ball and watch me run with it
Im done wishin'
Now his hand to the plow with no water
Im on
🎣 Fishin'

but with humility comes wisdom.
