Shut
Shock-M Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Disdained screams
Rapture fills the skies
Hope burns and dies
Laying deathbed of pocket-loading mindless nations
Milking tit of carcassed calves
Milking tit of carcassed calves
Iron shut our blossomed eye
No need for vision
Cradle hate: the lie
Iron shut our blossomed eye
No need for vision
Cradle hate: the blind eye lie
By good God's side





Good God lied twice
Mother, father, heaven's, daughter, dead

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Shock-M's song "Shut in" seem to carry a strong theme of disillusionment and criticism towards organized religion, societal power structures, and the manipulation of individuals for political gain. The opening lines, "Disdained screams, rapture fills the skies, hope burns and dies," suggest a feeling of despair and disappointment, perhaps reflecting on the broken promises or false hope offered by influential figures or institutions.


The following lines, "Laying deathbed of pocket-loading mindless nations, milking tit of carcassed calves," appear to critique the exploitation and manipulation of the masses by those in power. The image of "milking tit of carcassed calves" is metaphorical, symbolizing the draining of resources from vulnerable individuals or communities for personal gain. It suggests a narrative where the powerful benefit at the expense of the weak, feeding off their desperation and ignorance.


The repetition of the phrase "Iron shut our blossomed eye, no need for vision, cradle hate: the lie" further emphasizes the theme of manipulation and the suppression of individual thought or critical thinking. It implies a metaphorical closing of one's eyes to reality, accepting and perpetuating hatred and falsehoods without question. The lyrics suggest that this suppression is reinforced by religious institutions, symbolized by the mention of a "good God" who lied twice.


The final line, "Mother, father, heaven's daughter, dead," can be interpreted as a poignant reflection on the death of innocence, trust, and the loss of faith in societal structures. It could be seen as a metaphorical statement about the destruction or disillusionment caused by the manipulation and exploitation mentioned throughout the song.


Overall, Shock-M's "Shut in" carries a strong critique of power structures and religious manipulation, focusing on issues like exploitation, disillusionment, and the suppression of individual thought.
