Underwater
dj s.i. one & slave punisher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My mind tells me to runaway
(To Runaway)
Driven by money, we've lost our humanity
We've lost ourselves
Stick to your seat if you want
We'll prepare the knot
Its time to open your eyes
You know I need it to live
Fuck you I won't do anything more
Modern slavery we'll be the end of me
I'm sinking deep but I can breath
My lungs are filled of a disease
The poison spread under my skin
Til the day I’ll explose
You’re sinking deep under the weight you bear
You're sinking deep under the weight
You expect more about me
You know I need it to live
Fuck you I won't do anything more
I'm sinking deep but I can breath
My lungs are filled of a disease
The poison spread under my skin
Til the day I’ll explose
You re sinking deep
Pressure on your chest
I'm sinking deep but I can breath
My lungs are filled of a disease
The poison spread under my skin
Til the day I’ll explose
The lyrics of the song "Underwater" by DJ S.I. One & Slave Punisher are about the pressure and stress that people feel in today's society. The main theme of the song is how people have lost their humanity and identity, becoming slaves to money and material possessions. The first verse expresses the feeling of being trapped, unable to express oneself or change the situation. The singer feels like they are suffocating and need to escape to survive. However, as the chorus proclaims, they cannot escape because they are caught in a web of modern slavery.
The second verse talks about the physical and emotional toll this slavery takes on the person. The singer talks about how they are sinking deep into the abyss, but they can still breathe because they have become numb to the pain. They describe the poison spreading under their skin, which is a metaphor for how the system is corrupting them. The final lines of the song talk about the pressure felt on the chest and how they will eventually explode from the weight of it all. In summary, the lyrics of "Underwater" are a powerful commentary on the destructive nature of modern society and the toll it takes on the individual.
