I Won't Change
Skarhead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I won't change because of what they say. I choose to live my life this way and I won't change no matter what they think I choose to live my life my choice my game.
And I'm tired of your face, the one you love to hate, all I want, money, fame, that's how I play this game. Live, my life, day by day. Grill's busted, that's o.k. there's only one thing to do. My brothers D.M.S. Crew
I'm talking to you, it doesn't matter what I do I've got nothing to prove, and if you challenge you will lose. You're going to lose. Try to stop me, you're a joke. Want me to leave but I won't go. Got the facts, in your face, step into this hardcore graze. Boots a d braces busted faces dirty deed done dirt cheep. We're the ones on the attack. Old school, coming back
Skarhead's "I Won't Change" is a song about defiance and staying true to oneself despite criticism or pressure to conform. The lyrics are directed towards an unknown individual or group who wants Skarhead to leave or change their ways. The opening verse highlights the power that Skarhead holds in their scene; they are a force to be reckoned with and cannot be easily dismissed. Skarhead challenges this person or group to reveal themselves and then asserts that they will not bow to them. In the chorus, Skarhead makes it clear that they will not change who they are based on external opinions. They have chosen to live their life their way, and they will stick to that decision.
