Obsession
U.N.I.T.E.D. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't stop thinkin' thinking 'bout sinkin'
Sinkin' down into my bed
I call my mother
She's just a cunt now
She said I'm sick in the head
She said you ain't special
So who you foolin'
Don't try ta give me a line
But I can't stop thinkin' 'bout seein' ya one more time
(Oh no)
But I already left you and you're better off left behind

It's a bad obsession
It's always messin'
It's always messin' my mind
It's a bad obsession
It's always messin'
It's always messin' my mind

Too bad you're fucked up

I used to be wasted always tried to take it
Take it down into my vein
I call the doctor, he's just another
He said I'm sick in the brain
He said you ain't special
So who you foolin'
Don't try ta give me a line
But I can't stop thinkin' 'bout doin' it one more time
(Oh no)
But I already left you and you're better off left behind
(Oh yeah)

Aw it's a bad obsession
It's always messin'
It's always messin' my mind
It's a bad obsession
It's always messin'
It's always messin' my mind

So bad, boy

It's a
It's a
Heads up

It's a bad obsession
It's always messin'
It's always messin' my mind
Now it's a bad obsession
It's always messin'
It's always messin' my mind

But I can't stop thinkin' 'bout doin' it one more time
(Oh no)
See I already left you and you're better off left behind
(Oh no, oh no)
It's a bad obsession and you're always messin' my mind
See I already left you and you're better off left behind
Uh huh no





Maybe you'll do better next time

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Obsession" by U.N.I.T.E.D. depict a person's struggle with their own destructive thoughts and obsessions. The singer is constantly consumed by their own negative patterns of thinking and feeling. They express their inability to stop thinking about sinking into despair and being trapped in their own mind, which is symbolized by sinking into their bed. They reach out to their mother for support, but she responds with negativity and dismissiveness, calling the singer sick in the head and denying their worthiness. The doctor they seek help from similarly invalidates them, reinforcing their sense of inadequacy.


The repetition of the line "It's a bad obsession, it's always messin', it's always messin' my mind" emphasizes the torment and cyclical nature of the singer's obsessions. The use of explicit language and strong derogatory terms towards the mother signifies the singer’s frustration and anger towards the lack of understanding and support they receive.


The song reflects the internal struggle of someone caught in a negative thought pattern, unable to break free from their obsessions. The repetition of the phrase "But I already left you and you're better off left behind" suggests a desire to move on from the past, but the struggle to do so remains constant.
