Lyrical Analysis of...
Never Change - Rekton
- [HOOK]
- Things never change always leaving me empty and sore,
- I've suffered more conflicts than any country at war,
- I've seen it all the poverty, deceit and corruption,
- This world is on a path to it's own self eruption,
- It's the same old, same old in history and the new year,
- The image of our self destruction in my mind is clear,
- [VERSE 1]
- I'm tired of walking the streets only to be met my fake masks,
- Hidden emotions of the torture and hate that surround people's pasts,
- I walk into school and stare in the faces of arrogant and smug bastards,
- Hard to ignore their presence and barrier like Captcha,
- Only to realize that inside they are as lost as forgotten passwords.
- Encrypted in their hearts is beating sadness and anger,
- But to me they act as if I am a complete and utter stranger,
- I've felt heartbreak, I've felt betrayal and banishment,
- So don't fucking laugh at me if I'm bad at concealing it,
- I've despised and cared all at the same exact moment,
- Never have the two ever escaped the other it's cogent,
- Love and hate the emotional ying and yang,
- Still doesn't make it easier when both have you plagued,
- I always looked at my parents both symbols of strength,
- But then I released that power has a limited length,
- I looked at everyone that I ever aspired and looked up to,
- Just for their pain to say "we're just as fucked up as you",
- I've prayed to God and I've asked for guidance,
- All I've been shown is my wrongs and vileness,
- They wonder why my arguments are filled with so much violence,
- It's because they are the words of a man who has no hope for life left.

- The image of our self destruction in my mind is clear,
- [VERSE 2]
- We are told "hope when you are weak and distressed",
- They have no idea the hate they try to quench manifests,
- I had hope like every other person of this earth,
- Only for it to be taken away by every soul buried in the dirt,
- Many have died and for what? The publicity and news from it all?
- My cousin got shot while walking home to a son which he loved,
- But no, he was taken away from us by a being filled with lust.
- I guess he had to die right? Another casualty of a social war,
- But why, tell me, God what is all of this death for?
- I walk into church and I try to sing and worship,
- But I've exhausted all hope and problems flourish,
- When another soul is saved, 2 more are taken away,
- But who is there to fill the void and heal the pain?
- Two friends both killed by guns made from the earth,
- This world was given to us and look at how situations are worse,
- Tensions are rising and we babble about petty little things,
- How can stupid politics avenge the ones slain in the grave?
- We need justice, right here and right fucking now,
- I don't care if this entire rap makes me look like a clown,
- Three souls lost four bullets shot,
- The fourth bullet comes from the government that sits and watch.

- The image of our self destruction in my mind is clear,
- [VERSE 3]
- You think I give a fuck about the gang signs and turfs,
- It doesn't excuse the tears you caused from the families you hurt,
- When you drove by and shot those bullets that fatal night,
- You didn't kill two strangers you killed two children's lives,
- All for what? Misunderstanding? Confusion? Curiosity?
- If you had the dignity to show your faces, I'd beat you to death with ferocity,
- But what's the point in that? Just two more people dead for what?
- For us to fulfill what this society craves and wants?
- I'm tired of the bills, tired of the crying and regret,
- It would be better if the Holy Ghost just put this world to rest.
