NO MERCY
Zayde Wølf Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You thought you knew me
You thought you knew me well
But I keep on messing it up
I drank the poison
It got into my bones
Now I keep on tearing you up

(Yeah)
I've seen that mania
Can't say I'm blaming ya
You've been calling me insane-ah
Let loose that rage in ya

'Cause I don't want your mercy
I don't want your mercy (Oh no)
Don't hold back, give it to me now
Don't hold back, give it to me now
I don't want your mercy
I don't want your mercy
No mercy

Don't think about it
Use the weapons in your head
And keep on shooting me up
I'll be here standing
Even when I'm looking dead
Just let it out open the flood

(Yeah)
I've seen that mania
Can't say I'm blaming ya (Yeah)
You've been calling me insane-ah (Yeah)
Let loose that rage in ya

'Cause I don't want your mercy
I don't want your mercy (No, no)
Don't hold back, give it to me now
Don't hold back, give it to me now
I don't want your mercy
I don't want your mercy
No mercy

One day we're gonna wake up
And stand there like we're king and queen
Everything that kept us paralyzed
Was nothing but a bad dream

One day we're gonna wake up
And stand there like we're king and queen
Everything that kept us paralyzed
Was nothing but a bad dream

I don't want your
Mercy, Lord no
I don't want your mercy (No mercy)
No I don't want your mercy
Don't hold back, give it to me now
Don't hold back, give it to me
I don't want your mercy




I don't want your mercy
No mercy

Overall Meaning

In Zayde Wølf's song "No Mercy," the lyrics convey a message about not wanting pity or mercy from others. The song's first verse speaks about trying to understand who the person really is, but continuously messing things up, ultimately tearing them apart. Though the person can see the other's frustration and anger, they don't want their mercy. The chorus repeats this notion, emphasizing that they don't want the other person to hold back and are open to receiving whatever they have to offer, even the pain.


The second verse states that the person is still standing, even when they may seem dead inside. They encourage the other person to use the weapons in their head, as in their thoughts and emotions. The song concludes with a vision of waking up one day as the king and queen who no longer feel paralyzed by their past. They reiterate that they don't want mercy, from either the other person or from a higher power, but instead want to face the pain head-on.


Overall, "No Mercy" delivers an emotionally charged message about not wanting others to feel sorry for them and being willing to accept the fallout that follows their actions.

Zayde Wølf should collab with The Score. That would be a kickass song. Maybe even throw in Ruelle. 😍
