Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You promised you wouldn't change up on us
But I had to, I had to, I had to, I had to
Just to break through, just to break through, just to break through
These are what dreams are made of
These are what dreams are made of
These are what my dreams are made of
My dreams, my dreams, oh my dreams
I'm breaking in pieces right in front of you
You can't help me
I'm broken down baby
I'm so empty
I'm off some motherfucking drugs baby
I'm crazy
I'll prolly pack a .45 shoot everybody down nigga
Shoot every body down nigga
Looking for my family nigga, I don't even hear a sound nigga
The only time I ever hear from 'em was when my brother was buried in the fucking ground nigga
Oh, oh, oh, oh
These are what the dreams are made of, hmm
You said you wouldn't change up on me
You said you wouldn't change up on me
And it's like, niggas running up on me with guns
Niggas, niggas, niggas tryna' fuck my bitch
Niggas lacing me with drugs die nigga
While I'm strugglin' nigga
Nobody even try to help and hear my fuckin' cries nigga
Fuck all this shit nigga
I see my fucking brother die, in front of my fucking eyes nigga
See him cremated nigga, fucking clay nigga
It's the reason why I fucking hate niggas
Kill my brother fucking broad day nigga
And then you have a reason to ask why I get high nigga
The song "I Want to Know" by Zenko_Kill.la.Kill is a raw and emotional track that touches upon the pain and heartache that the artist has been through. The opening lines of the song reveal the betrayal or disappointment of someone who promised not to change. The repetition of "I had to break through" signifies the artist's struggle to push through a tough time and overcome whatever obstacle presented itself. The next set of lines shifts the focus onto the artist's dreams and how important they are to him. The line "Watch me just break in pieces in front of you" conveys the vulnerability he feels and how his dreams are just out of reach.
The second verse goes even deeper into the pain and trauma that the artist has faced. The lines "You can't help me, I'm broken down baby, I'm so empty" illustrates how alone he feels in this world. The mention of drugs and the desire to shoot everybody down is a cry for help, an act of desperation to escape the pain he feels. The line "See him cremated nigga, fucking clay nigga" is a reference to the burial of his brother and the pain that he feels. The last line of the song "And then you have a reason to ask why I get high nigga" is a plea for others to understand why he turns to drugs.
