WILD
Xov Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Losing their way
Do you know?
Do you know?
What freedom means
They got no dreams, anymore, now
My momma raised me in the wild
I said darling, I'm a free child
My momma raised me in the wild
This world wants too much from me
I gave it everything
It's modern slavery
It's modern slavery
My brother, he lies to me
I know 'bout everything
It's modern slavery
It's modern slavery
It's such a waste
All this hate
Do you know?
Do you know?
What happened [?]
It's not [?] not at all, now
Darling, I'm a free child
My momma raised me in the wild
I said darling, I'm a free child
My momma raised me in the wild
This world wants too much from me
I gave it everything
It's modern slavery
It's modern slavery
My brother, he lies to me
I know 'bout everything
It's modern slavery
It's modern slavery
What you want from me?
What you want from me?
What you want from me?
Darling, I'm a free child
My momma raised me in the wild
I said darling, I'm a free child
My momma raised me in the wild
The lyrics to Xov's song "Wild" speak about the concept of modern-day slavery that people experience in today's society. The first few lines of the song talk about people being held back in chains and losing their way, which could symbolize how individuals are restrained by societal norms and expectations that limit their freedom. The question "do you know?" is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the fact that many people are oblivious to their lack of freedom and how they are being controlled by society.
The chorus talks about the singer being a "free child" because their mother raised them in the wild. This could mean that the singer was raised with a sense of freedom and individuality rather than being molded into society's expectations. The verses of the song talk about how the world wants too much from the singer, to the point where they have given everything and it feels like modern slavery. The line "my brother lies to me" implies that even those closest to the singer are not trustworthy, emphasizing the feeling of being trapped and controlled.
Overall, the song "Wild" is a call to break free from the chains of society that restrain and limit individuality. It highlights the importance of personal freedom and the dangers of conforming to societal pressure. The repetition of the question "do you know?" emphasizes the need for self-awareness and understanding of personal freedom.
