In dope we trust
Tsatthoggua Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Created to enhance our eyes
Senses twist and paralyse
Angles loud and colours wide
Opens wide those doors of mind
Tears apart society's crust
Fuck off world - in dope we trust
Expanding lust and creativity
I have seen this agony
Change myself to stranger thoughts
To celebrate Dionysos' songs
Shout it out with us - In dope we trust
[written February 1997 by NorthWind / D. von Junzt]
The lyrics of Tsatthoggua's song "In dope we trust" seem to be about the use of drugs as a means to expand the mind and experience a heightened sense of perception. The first few lines suggest that the use of drugs can enhance our senses and provide a greater understanding of the world around us. The use of language is interesting here, as the words "paradise", "twist" and "wide" suggest both pleasure and distortion.
The next few lines seem to be a rebellion against conventional society, with the lyrics "tears apart society's crust" and "fuck off world" suggesting a desire to break away from the restrictions and norms of everyday life. The phrase "in dope we trust" encapsulates this, suggesting that drugs are a means to transcend the limitations of society and experience something greater.
The final lines seem to suggest that the use of drugs can lead to an increase in creativity, with the singer having "seen this agony" and "changed myself to stranger thoughts" in order to fully experience the music of Dionysos (a Greek god associated with wine, ecstasy and ritual madness). The phrase "shout it out with us - in dope we trust" invites the listener to join in this experience and embrace the use of drugs as a way to explore the limits of the mind.
Overall, the song seems to be a celebration of drugs as a means to expand the mind and escape the restrictions of society. The use of language is poetic and ambiguous, allowing the listener to interpret the lyrics in a number of different ways.
