Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Keepin' my soul from bleedin'
Let it burn and give me a call
Let me tell you all about the Medicinal criminal
Freedom's calling you
He knows you by your name and soul
Oh don't
Give in to their gameIf you let them be
They just become another screen
Oh no
What life do they lead
Give up your eyes your life
What you see is part of their mind
Forcing you to step beside the line
Bleed your being and find what's true
Your healing starts with a falling you
Gotta stand tall he's coming for us all
Medicinal criminal
Hey we're the same all shamed when he looks at you
Break the game
Take the grace
Pull yourself through
You're a name with a face and a soul glued to you
Change your fate
Don't be late
Time is coming too
Freedom's calling you
He knows you by your name and soul
Oh don't
Give in to their game
Give up your eyes your life
What you see is part of their mind
Forcing you to step beside the lineBleed your being and find what's true
Your healing starts with a falling you
Gotta stand tall he's coming for us all
Medicinal criminal
You act so primal, primal
Stealing my soul always hooked on the critical
Givin' me a taste for the cynical
We're trapped in this house but we're lookin' at the windows
Freedom's calling you
He knows you by your name and soul
Oh don't
Give in to their game
Give up your eyes your life
What you see is part of their mind
Forcing you to step beside the line
Bleed your being and find what's true
Your healing starts with a falling you
Gotta stand tall he's coming for us all
Medicinal criminal
The lyrics to Zebraman's song "Medicinal Criminal" speak to the struggle for personal freedom and individuality in the face of societal pressures and external influences. The song portrays a sense of being trapped or controlled by something or someone, symbolically referred to as the "Medicinal criminal." This entity steals the singer's will and freedom, preventing their soul from truly expressing itself and causing them to feel confined.
The lyrics emphasize the importance of resisting societal norms and expectations. The singer warns against giving in to the game that others play, as it ultimately leads to a loss of personal identity. The line "What you see is part of their mind, forcing you to step beside the line" suggests that conforming to societal standards blinds individuals to their own true selves and limits their potential for personal growth.
The overall message of the song is to break free from the constraints imposed by society and embrace one's true identity. The "Medicinal criminal" represents the oppressive forces that seek to suppress individuality and maintain control. The singer encourages listeners to stand tall and resist these influences, recognizing that true healing and freedom come from being true to oneself.

Inducing a desire for skepticism and distrust
We're trapped in this house but we're lookin' at the windows
We may feel confined, but we still have the ability to perceive the outside world
