Liberation
True-D Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The woman who cuts herself open
The madman who screams to the skies high above
The widow who wipes her pain away
Through pills and medicine
The shot of a bullet that passes through
The desperate skull of a grieving father
The rope that let's the child
In a last effort
To end his suffering
The zeitgeist of the modern times
The escape from reality
An organism's vulnerability
Le mode de vie dans cet milieu noir
A beleza da natureza humana
É o que a torna assustadora
Mundos criados pela mente
Vidas criadas por loucos
Vontades involuntárias
Obrigações morais
Dores constantes
Por isso, berrem o grito da libertação
Porque os insanos estão prontos
Os homens estão fartos
E os animais têm fome
Libertem as bestas
Para acabar com o vosso sofrimento
Soltem os vossos grilhões
Libertem as vossas fantasias
Corram nus e saltem do precipício
E sejam, finalmente, livres
These mad beings
Try the absurd
To reach the point
Of liberation and ecstasy
To release their bodies
From the scars
And all the pain that remains
And through the absurd
They ought to reach
The cathartic release
And with that
Freedom
For the first time
In their lives
The lyrics of "Liberation" by True-D explore themes of mental anguish, desperation, and the pursuit of freedom. The song vividly portrays various individuals who embody different forms of suffering. The man who jumps from the bridge, the woman who cuts herself open, the madman who screams to the sky, the grieving father who takes his own life, and the widow who seeks solace in pills and medicine all symbolize different manifestations of pain and escape.
The song also speaks about the zeitgeist of modern times and the desire to escape from reality. It touches on the vulnerability of being human and the inherent struggles that come with it. The chorus emphasizes the need for liberation, urging individuals to break free from their constraints, whether physical or emotional. It encourages embracing one's desires, shedding societal obligations, and ultimately finding freedom.
In the second verse, the lyrics highlight the paradoxical nature of human beauty and how it can also be terrifying. Madness creates alternative worlds, and lives are often shaped by those who are considered insane. The lyrics suggest that voluntary desires and involuntary obligations lead to constant pain and suffering. Therefore, the call for liberation becomes even stronger, urging everyone to release their inner beasts, break free from their chains, and embrace their fantasies in order to find true freedom.
