Beauty
Tate Visconti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Creative juices to propel my mental rocket
Into another atmosphere I have no fear
I have no fear
Perhaps I have to much care to carry delicate balance between
Life’s pressures and beauty’s keeps me worry
I try not to scurry when one has me teathered to the ground
I gotta move around
I can’t be put down
I won’t allow a muzzle near my mouth
There’s to much beauty
To ever be shut down
But beauty’s deadly
So I gotta be careful now
Sweet things in freightful forms abound
Shit can get heavy
So I remember plenty
Before I lie down
Wait... what’s that about?
Gotta keep my patience around
When it goes down
Wait... let me hear silence now
let me hear silence now
No more silence in my mind
I makes colors you can’t see through your eyes
Pablo is not my name but some can call me that
Primitive, erotics and violent thoughts are not longer disguised
My expectancy is low but my vision is high
So even if I die, I will touch the sky
This is some baroque shit
This is some surreal shit
Life is full of sudden breaks
And that’s ok, those are the moments we gotta incorporate
Music is beautiful man
The lyrics to Tate Visconti's song "Beauty" speak to the struggles and triumphs of the creative process. Visconti speaks of constantly retooling and moving, as well as the delicate balance between life's pressures and the pursuit of beauty. He acknowledges that beauty can be both alluring and dangerous, but ultimately it is worth the risk. The line "I makes colors you can't see through your eyes" speaks to the idea that art is not always easy to understand or digest, but it is still valuable and worthy of creation. Visconti also references the baroque and surreal, which further speaks to the idea that art is not always straightforward or easily defined.
One interesting aspect of this song is Visconti's use of vocal layering to create a unique sound. The repetition of certain phrases, such as "I have no fear," creates a hypnotic rhythm that draws the listener in. Another interesting aspect is the use of references to art history, such as the references to baroque and surrealism. This serves to position Visconti's work within a larger lineage of artistic pursuits. Additionally, the use of the phrase "beauty is deadly" speaks to the idea that creativity can be both life-affirming and dangerous, further emphasizing the ideas of risk and reward that are present throughout the song.
