Bring It
Soulfly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
War is insane
Everywhere, everywhere
Blood and disgrace
Look around, look around
Apocalypse now
Terminate, terminate
With extreme hate
Bring it
Bring it
Who the cap fit, who the cap fit
You know what I mean
All your envy, all your envy
I'll make you bleed
Why don't you go away, why don't you go away
And never come back no more
Cut throat, cut throat
Fuck off
Why don't you go away, why don't you go away
Never come back no more
Cut throat scum
You don't have a soul
Fuck off
The lyrics to Soulfly's song Bring It conveys themes of war, hate and destruction. The lines "Carved in hate, carved in hate, War is insane, Everywhere, everywhere, Blood and disgrace" suggest the violent nature of war and the damage it leaves behind. The following lyrics call for termination with extreme hate, implying a desire for revenge and the continuation of the cycle of violence. The repeated chorus of "Bring it" further emphasizes this aggressive tone, as if urging someone or something to bring on the conflict.
The second verse of the song seems to be directed at a specific individual or group, as evidenced by the lines "Who the cap fit, who the cap fit, You know what I mean, All your envy, all your envy, I'll make you bleed." These lyrics suggest a personal vendetta or grudge against someone. The call for that person to go away and never come back, along with the insults "cut throat scum" and "you don't have a soul," further emphasizes the hostility and resentment present in the song.
Overall, the lyrics to Bring It convey an intense and violent energy, and seem to be a call to arms for those who feel wronged or oppressed. It may be interpreted as a reflection of the frustration and anger present in society, or as a commentary on the never-ending cycle of violence and revenge that seems to plague humanity.
