Beat You
Watt White Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do you break it
Or push it away?
Just got too hard to take
I forgive you
So what do you say?
What can I tell from your silent reaction but nothing?
Apology was yours to take
This is your pulpit and this is your pride
This is your life at the end of the line
This is our game you can no longer win
Cuz I′ll beat you my friend
Beat you my friend
Again and again and again and again
I'll beat you my friend
I′ll win in the end
And I'll beat your ass
If you cross me again
As I offer you truce
Are you smiling
While winding the noose?
I won't walk through your mud
This forgiveness
Is peace soaked in blood
What can I tell from your frozen complexion but hatred?
And if you won′t exist to me
Cancel my apology
This is your pulpit and this is your pride
This is your life at the end of the line
This is our game you can no longer win
Cuz I′ll beat you my friend
Beat you my friend
Again and again and again and again
I'll beat you my friend
I′ll win in the end
And I'll beat your ass if you cross me again
Brace yourself for the fight
I will take you tonight
You just stepped in some shit now
This is it now
This is it now
This is your destiny, this is your shrine
This is your nightmare
The end of the line
This is my justice now, this is the end
Cuz I′ll beat you my friend
Beat you my friend
Again and again and again and again
I'll beat you
(This is you pulpit and this is your pride)
I′ll beat you
(This is your life at the end of the line)
I'll beat you
(This is our game you can no longer win)
I will beat, beat, beat, beat
I'll beat you my friend
I′ll win in the end
I′ll beat your ass if you fuck me again
The lyrics to Watt White's song "Beat You" paint a picture of a deeply hurt and betrayed individual confronting their former friend or partner. The song starts with an attempt to make amends, but it becomes clear that forgiveness cannot be given easily. The singer has been hurt too deeply, and the other person's actions have gone too far. The repeated phrase "I'll beat you my friend" is a threat, but it's also a promise of resolution. The singer will not let themselves be hurt again.
The lyrics describe a power dynamic, one that has shifted in favor of the singer. The other person, who once held all the cards, is now at the mercy of the singer's wrath. The imagery ("this is your pulpit," "this is your nightmare") creates a sense of inevitability. There is no escaping the consequences of one's actions. This idea is embodied in the repeated refrain: "I'll beat you my friend / Again and again and again and again / I'll beat you my friend / I'll win in the end / And I'll beat your ass if you cross me again."
At its core, "Beat You" is a song about betrayal and the consequences that come with it. It explores the emotional pain of feeling betrayed and the struggle to move past it. But more than that, it's a song about standing up for oneself and taking control of a situation that once seemed hopeless.
