Egocentric
Young And Lost Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You won't do any compliments.
You won't help anyone unless you can
Get something out of this sitiation.
Want you to change cause I
Cannot tolerate your selfish behavior anymore.
That's how it supposed to be.
You are egocentric and you are just another prick.
You will lose all your friends,
You will be leave alone. You are the kind of person
People hate and I hope you'll been in hell for eternety.
The lyrics to Young And Lost's song "Egocentric" are a scathing takedown of a self-absorbed individual who only seems to care about himself. The singer opens by accusing the subject of the song of being solely focused on their own needs and desires, and unwilling to show appreciation or help others without some kind of personal gain. It's clear that the subject's behavior has become intolerable to the singer, who implores him to change.
The second verse reinforces the message that the subject's egocentrism is not only wrong, but ultimately self-destructive. The singer asserts that giving to others is a fundamental part of receiving in life, and that the subject's behavior is preventing him from forming meaningful connections with others. The final lines of the song are a brutal condemnation of the subject, with the singer predicting that his selfishness will have disastrous consequences and wishing him eternal damnation.
Overall, the lyrics to "Egocentric" paint a vivid picture of someone who is completely out of touch with the needs and desires of those around him. The song's message is clear: true happiness and success can only be achieved through giving to others and showing appreciation, rather than constantly looking out for oneself.
