Lyrical Analysis of...
Rock Bottom
- Yo yo,
- This is for all the people who feel at their lowest,i feel you…..
- (INTRO)
- We are all equal,we are all responsible for actions we take,
- i understand the need to rid hate
- from this world…..but we are taking dads from their boys or girls
- people sitting by watching as soldiers indulge
- people sitting by watching their pockets bulge
- (CHORUS)
- rock bottom at the foot of the hill
- rock bottom feet firm standing still
- stuck in the mud no moving forwards
- hierarchy living by different standards
- rock bottom (x2)
- (VERSE 1)
- rock bottom is where the poor girl stands
- flag of the nation with her mans blood in her hands
- tears fall as she catches his smell
- cut down in his prime no chance to excel
- no chance to be a dad see his baby grow up tall
- miss the chance to hear the first word miss out seeing the first crawl
- but no….she’s alone in this hopeless struggle
- her one love taken when his base was blown down to rubble
- high school sweethearts gone ripped and shredded
- 1:53pm was the moment the letter came she dreaded
- didn’t want to look she knew what was inside
- just hugged the letter and she sat and she cried
- for hours and hours she couldn’t think
- cries getting louder drink after drink
- kids came home to see their mummy slumped
- kids taken into care as she gets her stomach pumped
- she’s at rock bottom
- (CHORUS)
- rock bottom at the foot of the hill
- rock bottom feet firm standing still
- stuck in the mud no moving forwards
- hierarchy living by different standards
- rock bottom (x2)
- (VERSE 2)
- rock bottom no money to live not a penny to give
- to the savages who take without a thought
- not using the money to help survivors of the war
- big bank bonuses and healthy hand outs
- drown out the sick and homelessness cry outs
- on the streets no thought about their health
- 3 jobs and pregnant stacking the shelves
- to provide the right up bringing of her family
- her fiance killed in battle,unexplained tragedy
- taken from her and his kids,but she didn’t get any help
- should of been looked after,but had to continue stacking shelfs
- in a supermarket instead her fiancé’s medals at home
- but she sleeps under the stars,protecting her children from the cold
- (CHORUS)
- rock bottom at the foot of the hill
- rock bottom feet firm standing still
- stuck in the mud no moving forwards
- hierarchy living by different standards
- rock bottom (x2)
- (VERSE 3)
- rock bottom is where she is no longer staying
- 3 bedroom house and garden to play in
- kids looking healthy and colour in their cheeks
- dwelled on this decision for weeks and weeks
- received a settlement for the tragic loss
- the offer was laughable and made her cross….
- that she had to accept it just to survive
- it kept her and her kids safe and alive
- a pioneer to all people a hero to some
- but this what we call an everyday mum
- the fights and battles to put her kids through school
- but its the celebs with loads of money who get labelled cool
- the real soldiers are right at home at night
- tucking their children in bed and saying goodnight
