Break
oil Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You wanna break me
You want...
You wanna break me
You wanna wash by brain
You...
You wanna break me
They told you what to do with me
You are among them
I’m not anything like you
Don’t try to find me

Don’t ever tell me what to do
I’m never gonna be like you

If I could kill me
I’d get rid of solitude
If I could kill you
If I could kill you

You wanna change my mind
You wanna see me like another one




You wanna change my life
You wanna see me living lies

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, Oil is expressing defiance and resistance towards someone who is trying to control and manipulate them. The repetition of "You wanna break me" emphasizes this feeling of being threatened and attacked. The line "You wanna wash my brain" refers to the idea of brainwashing, or the attempt to change someone's thoughts and beliefs through manipulation and coercion. However, Oil is rejecting this attempt, declaring that they are not like their oppressor and cannot be controlled in this way.


The chorus, "Don't ever tell me what to do, I'm never gonna be like you," is a powerful statement of autonomy and individuality. Oil is declaring that they will not be shaped or molded by the expectations of others, but will carve their own path in life. The lines "If I could kill me, I'd get rid of solitude" and "If I could kill you" suggest that Oil is grappling with intense emotions, perhaps even contemplating violence, in response to the pressure they are experiencing.


Overall, this song is a powerful anthem of resistance and rebellion against those who would seek to control and manipulate us. It is a call to embrace our own identity and refuses to be shaped by the expectations of others.

I think also frequent oil changes within the first 10,000 miles is crucial to flush out all the metal particles that can cause a lot of scuffing. I over change my oil with break-in oil and I've always had fantastic ring seal and engine wear thereafter. I drive my car home from the dealer new and will immediately dump the factory fill and put in break-in oil and then change it at 500, 1,000, 2,000 3,000 miles and then switch to a low of a Moly oil as I can find and continue changing it at 3,000 mile intervals until it reaches 10,000 miles. I also try to vary the RPM as much as possible with just a few WOT's in this time as well. I have compression and UOA reports showing extremely amazing results.

That’s excellent advice!

I heard from several top sources that you need to do a few hard pulls mid-rpm right away, otherwise you will glaze the cylinders from low loads.
Is this true?

I used BR30 on the LS6 I built last year. Seems like it worked pretty well, however I can't say for sure because I was rear ended in that car and the car was totaled after less than 2000 miles of driving with that engine :(

Bob Irving

Great info, thanks guys!
I am guilty of “chemical Russian-roulette”.
Have been using TurboMaxx which basically stops steel on steel wear. It has plenty of moly, zinc, calcium, etc, etc.
I used TotalSeal gapless second rings set.
Will my blow-by likely be excessive?
If so, could I re-hone the cylinders and use proper break-in oil?

Hey Bob, Greetings from down under. Love your videos. So refreshing to find somebody who presents the science to back up claims. I wonder if you could test or give us the 'good oil' on Castrol Magnatec. 'The oil with intelligent molecules that cling to an engine's moving parts to protect your engine from the moment you turn the key and even if you wait for 100 years, Magnatec will still protect your engine like yesterday. Sounds too good to be true. With Magnatec in my engine, it ought to never wear out. Castrol makes these wild claims, but presents no evidence of these intelligent molecules and it's strange that none of the other oil companies have tried to call Castrol out on this, or come up their own intelligent molecules. I'd be very intersted to hear anything you can say about this.

LOL, I guess the Molecules are using AI??? In all seriousness, what they are referring to is the polar nature of the ZDDP anti-wear additive. It is attracted to ferrous surfaces and bonds with that surface to create a protective film, so it is really great science. In fact, it is so great that literally every engine oil on the planet uses ZDDP.

On my second round of Driven break in before switching to the XP4 in my Total Seal equipped SBC> Thanks Guys for your many on-line classes! Might still want one on Total Seals official way to clean and prepare a cylinder wall for final assembly.

Thanks for the suggestion!
