Understand
project:a Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Most people are gone
We thrive in the dark when cell phone screens
Light the way to the perfect playlist
Getting lost, eyes closed with headphones on
Because dad says my music is too loud
But have you heard them arguing?
I think it's not loud enough
If you don’t wanna talk right now
It's okay, we can lay down
And just play your favorite song
Turn off all the lights, it’ll be alright
We’ll close our eyes and let the sound keep us safe
It's our time tonight, it’ll be alright
They don’t understand, and nobody can, what will it take?
You just want to be in a rock and roll band
The world may not, but I’ll understand
I’ll understand
They call us the scum of society
But I'll never understand why
They tell us to grow up get a job
But they hate the ones we choose
I know that I can be emotional
But I ain't causing you no harm
Someone call the cops on the emo kids
They’re probably up to no good
It's okay, I’ll understand
If you don’t wanna talk right now
It's okay, we can lay down
And just play your favorite song
Turn off all the lights, it’ll be alright
We’ll close our eyes and let the sound keep us safe
It's our time tonight, it’ll be alright
They don’t understand, and nobody can, what will it take?
You just want to be in a rock and roll band
The world may not, but I’ll understand
I’ll understand
Turn off all the lights, it’ll be alright
We’ll close our eyes and let the sound keep us safe
It's our time tonight, it’ll be alright
They don’t understand, and nobody can, what will it take?
You just want to be in a rock and roll band
The world may not, but I’ll understand
I’ll understand
In the song "Understand" by project:a, the lyrics delve into the singer's experience of feeling misunderstood and marginalized by society. The song opens with a scene of finding solace and connection during the late night hours when most people are absent. This setting symbolizes a sense of freedom and authenticity that comes alive in the darkness, where the glow of cell phone screens guides the way to a personally curated playlist. This intimate moment of escaping into music with closed eyes and headphones on represents a form of rebellion against societal expectations, particularly parental disapproval of loud music.
The singer's defiance against their father's criticism of their music being too loud hints at a deeper generational and cultural divide. The lyrics suggest that the singer believes their music should be even louder, as if to drown out the external conflicts and criticisms that surround them. The song highlights the disconnect between the older generation, represented by the parents arguing, and the younger generation's yearning for understanding and acceptance of their passions and choices.
As the lyrics progress, the theme of being misunderstood and judged by society becomes more pronounced. The singer expresses frustration at being labeled as the "scum of society" and being pressured to conform to traditional expectations of adulthood and employment. Despite this societal pressure, the singer maintains a sense of defiance and resilience, refusing to conform to societal norms that suppress their individuality and creativity.
The chorus of the song reinforces the theme of seeking understanding and acceptance in a world that may not always be receptive to their dreams and aspirations. The repeated refrain, "I'll understand," serves as a comforting and reassuring declaration to oneself and others in similar situations. The singer finds solace and empowerment in music, using it as a sanctuary to escape judgment and find solidarity with those who share their yearning for a life less ordinary. Overall, "Understand" by project:a resonates with anyone who has felt alienated, rejected, or misunderstood by society, emphasizing the importance of self-acceptance and finding understanding in the face of adversity.

Hoping that they give the guns more unique looks.
@zchandos
sure theyll be pretty basic looking but will probably have skins
@crowravencorvenrow
@@zchandos Problem with that thinking: it's a first person shooter. You're gonna be looking at the guns the most. You really want the guns to look more interesting than what we got already.
@zchandos
@@crowravencorvenrow Yea but if it's going to be a free to play model then riot needs as many ways to force monetization. On a business stand point it makes sense. On a gamer standpoint sure you want the base skins to look cool but it's not what riot is worried about.
