My daughter loves imagine dragons and pop type shit. I sat her down and talked to her. She was listening to this song 90s kids which basically talks about getting fucked up and shit. I said how bad this stuff was. I said “listen to me the ‘nice’sounding shit has some of the most fucked up shit in it. Then I pulled back the curtain a little bit and played her a song, knowing she would be taken aback by the intensity of the music and the singing. I showed her what was being said.
The lyrics:

“I don't mean to dwell
But I can't help myself
When I feel the vibe
And taste a memory
Of a time in life
When years seemed to stand still

I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence

When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold

[Chorus:]
Symbolic acts - so vivid
Yet at the same time
Were invisible


Savor what you feel and what you see
Things that may not seem important now
But may be tomorrow

Do you remember when
Things seemed so eternal?
Heroes were so real...
Their magic frozen in time
The only way to learn
Is be aware and hold on tight

I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence

When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold

[Repeat chorus]”


So i told her that sometimes just because something seems palatable doesn’t mean it is remotely “good” and sometimes the most difficult thing to hear is leading you on a better path. Really pay attention to things in shiny wrappers because sometimes the wrapper is wrapped around a turd. Oh yeah, the song btw is “symbolic” from the band “death” and is an absolute masterpiece and a showcase of musicianship and talent. It is intense and got her to start paying attention to what is being delivered in a song. I plan on doing a post on this band as it has an interesting history and a tragic end. This is one of the origins of death metal. Not all “extreme” metal is evil. Some of it is enlightening. Yes I am aware Chuck was a half jew. His legacy holds up. I’d give him a pass. He died of a brain tumor that he couldn’t afford surgery on after being ripped off by music industry people. He is someone that made me want to pick up a guitar.

The lyrics sound sinister for sure. I hope your daughter was receptive to your message. I read in the YouTube comments that Imagine Dragons was "the band of my childhood", which makes me sad for today's youth. When I was a kid, my mom only played oldies stations on the radio, which still had wholesome 50s music. I'm not even that old.

Yeah man, saw those comments. Was depressing to see so many similar ones. She actually has grown to enjoy my type of music a bit. I plan on going over some of the imagine dragons songs with her after seeing the op. Really breakdown what they are saying to her.

Yes. Quite often lyrical pieces have a depth of spiritual meaning in them. Now-a-days however, there seems to have been an explosion in these much more 'revealing' songs, being given a veneer of fame and glamour, it's completely glossed over by most, and the 'artists' are then given permission to be... much more explicit.

I just can't believe I let my kids listen to this song and it's basically satanic.

Always hated that band.

I never really paid attention. But the lyrics are like a satanic ritual.

I used to work with this fucker that loved that band. He would turn off Waylon Jennings in favor of it. He also left his kid in a car, in the summer, in Arizona, so he could go get high. Kid didn't make it. I always think about that when I hear anything from Imagine Dragons.

What the fuck, man. That is some fucked up shit. If I were ever responsible for my kids death, Id wash my mouth out with buckshot.

I hope you beat him to death with a pool cue.

Damn I never knew the lyrics were satanic. What the fuck

[ - ] SumerBreeze 1 point 1.8 yearsJul 26, 2023 08:48:08 ago (+1/-0)

It’s basically admitting that he doesn’t really give a shit about the kid the song was made for (cancer victim) and did it for more shekels.

Definitely satanic money worshipping.

When the tits are cold, and my cock I hold.

And the showers we see, are all made of gold.

When wet dreams all fail, and the ones we hail,

Are the worst of all, and the lube’s gone stale.

I wanna hide the truth, I wanna cum on you.

But with the cock inside, there's nowhere we can hide.

No matter what we breed, we still are made of seed.

This is my kingdom cum, this is my kingdom cum.

When you feel my D, look into my eyes.

It's where my semen hide, it's where my penis hard.

Don't edge too close; my cock inside.

It's where my semen hide, it's where my penis hard.

At the sexman’s call, it's the last of all.

When my nutt drips out, all the sinners crawl.

So I came in your poon and the masquerade,

Will start eating me out at the mess we’ve made.

Don't wanna stop my pounds, but I am bussy-bound.

Though this is all for you, don't wanna hide the truth.

No matter what we breed, we still are made of seed.

This is my kingdom cum, this is my kingdom cum.

When you feel my D, look into my eyes.

It's where my semen hide, it's where my penis hard.

Don't edge too close; my cock inside.

It's where my semen hide, it's where my penis hard.

They say it's what you bake, I say it's up to fate.

It's dripping in my hole, I need to let you go.

Your ass, it shines so bright, I wanna see red lights.

I can't escape this show, unless you fuck me now.

When you feel my D, look into my eyes.

It's where my semen hide, it's where my penis hard.

Don't edge too close; my cock inside.

It's where my semen hide, it's where my penis hard.




Imagine dragon DEEZ NUTS across your face!

Why would anyone listen to that, even without the lyrics?

Check out the lyrics for "Sympathy for the Devil" some time.
