Disengage
The One Hundred Lyrics

I've got a dark past feeds my aggression
The singer's aggressive tendencies are fueled by their troubled past

It gives me the strength of a thousand weapons
Their past gives them immense strength to fight with

I've not got beyond the point, here's the question
The singer is still questioning their role in life

Are we just the pawns of your creation?
The artist wonders if they and humanity as a whole are just mere pawns in a greater scheme of things

Starts with a team and ends in a draw
The struggle starts as a collective effort but ultimately ends up in a stalemate

To win is to fight and to fight is the law
Fighting is the only means to achieve victory in this situation

When the law is put to a saw, where do you stand
When the very principles that govern society are challenged, what side will you choose?

When they want more
When the opposition demands more, where do we draw the line?

When the raid becomes too much
When the situation spirals out of control, how do we cope?

To drag and just give up
To continue on despite the odds or to surrender?

When just a step away
When success is within reach

Do you think it'll end just pray
Hoping for a divine intervention or an unlikely outcome

There's a box in the town with the strength to change it all
An unknown power lies within the town that could alter the course of the situation

It's out of our control
Whatever may transpire is beyond our jurisdiction

And the demons that we face, half a mind without a soul
The obstacles we encounter may come from forces that lack consciousness or morality

And they wanna take us down
The opposing side wants to bring us to ruin

Hide in the trees when they're dropping like flies
The artist suggests a strategy of avoiding the enemy when they are at their weakest

They'll stare into my eyes thinking what comes next
The enemy fears the unknown intention of the singer

Mask of a hero, death of a zero
The singer wears the façade of a hero but is ultimately unsuccessful

Will that mean I'mma strike it blind
The possibility of victory despite being blinded by obstacles

Forget the ones who suffer the most
The losers of the conflict suffer the most but are often overlooked

Where were useless when we head to the outpost
The artist questions the usefulness of their actions in hindsight

Imma pressure on a thousand men
The singer puts immense pressure on their enemy

Do we die in vain or is this just a game
The conflict and its outcomes may have been meaningless or could just be a game to the other side

Who's worth more (Do we have to choose)
The value of lives and whose lives matter more

What comes next (When we have to choose)
The consequences of having to make difficult choices are uncertain

Because
The logic/reason for why the following line will occur/have occurred

It's about to go down
Something major and possibly negative is about to happen

It's about to go down, run fast run silent run deep
Act quickly and quietly to avoid being caught in the event

Fall back, retreat retreat
Retreat from the confrontation

Learn to be a man and face your defeat
Accept and confront the reality of defeat

Run silent run fast run deep
Escape the situation as quickly and silently as possible

Who's worth more
The value of life and whose life is more precious

Do we have to choose
Is it necessary to make a choice?

Do we have to choose
Is it necessary to make a choice?
