Society
Screwl Stew Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seems i don't know where i'm going
Seems it's always like i'm berror convinced
It was me
Keeps on coming out again

And you know it might me long
Before the feelings come to run
With an exorcist in hand
Seems it's fucked up in my head

That's what the society wants to think of me
That's what i will give'em and that's what they will see
Wait until they find out
They'll leave me alone, they'll leave me alone my friends

And i know i'm not alright, to be saying this to you
To be preaching what i think, to be saying this to you
And you know i might get caught, and you know i might get down
What the hell went wrong

I know they want to get to me
They want me down onto my knees




I don't believe, i don't care
They still are fucked inside my head... society

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Screwl Stew's song "Society" convey several emotions all at once, ranging from frustration to anger to a sense of helplessness. The song starts by talking about not knowing where one is going and feeling lost in life, but then quickly segues into the main theme of the song: the pressure and expectations that society puts on individuals. The lyrics suggest that society expects people to conform to a certain set of beliefs and values, and those who don't are ostracized and looked down upon. The singer feels that despite his efforts to be himself, society still sees him as someone who is not good enough and is somehow flawed.


The lyrics then delve into the singer's feelings of despair and confusion. He talks about feeling like he is going crazy and that there is something wrong with him. He mentions an exorcist, which is typically associated with getting rid of evil spirits, implying that he feels like there is something inside him that needs to be purged. The theme of feeling trapped and not having any control over one's life permeates the song. The singer recognizes that he is not alright and that his opinions and thoughts may not be popular or well-received, but he still feels compelled to speak out.


The chorus of the song sums up the central message: that society is messed up and that it is hard to break free from its hold. The singer acknowledges that while he may give in to society and present an image that others want to see, he knows that there is more to him than just that. He also recognizes that ultimately, he will be alone because society will never fully accept him for who he is. Overall, the message of "Society" is a powerful one, highlighting the pressure to conform that we all face and the negative impact it can have on our mental health and well-being.
