Red And Blue

Share:

Down on streets where they see you
You're deemed so unsilt your view
Grown up and tied to the nine
Soaked in fake perfection

When all the eyes you never knew
Make you wanna be see-through
Grown up and tied to the nine

Soaked in fake perfection

I'm red
I'm blue
You can call me one
You can call me two
I don't mind what you do

I'm red
I'm blue
You can call me one
You can call me two
I don't mind what you do

All the walls they drew
Paint them like you wanted to
Grown up and tied to the nine
Soaked in fake perfection

Go buy the apple and all the prune
In a story they wrote to rule
Grown up and tied to the nine
Soaked in fake perfection

I'm red
I'm blue
You can call me one
You can call me two
I don't mind what you do

I'm red
I'm blue
You can call me one
You can call me two
I don't mind what you do

Eyes to the ground
That keeps us down
We're fixed to the floor
Eyes to the ground
That keeps us down
We're fixed to the floor
Eyes to the ground
That keeps us down
We're fixed to the floor
Eyes to the ground
That keeps us down
We're fixed to the floor

I'm red
I'm blue
You can call me one
You can call me two
I don't mind what you do

I'm red
I'm blue
You can call me one

You can call me two
I don't mind what you do

The lyrics to Razz's song "Red and Blue" explore themes of identity, societal expectations, and the pressure to conform. The first verse describes a person who feels trapped and judged by others. They are constantly seeking validation and approval, but find themselves soaked in a false sense of perfection. The line "Grown up and tied to the nine" suggests that they have become bound to societal norms and expectations, losing sight of their true self.

The chorus, "I'm red, I'm blue, you can call me one, you can call me two, I don't mind what you do," portrays the singer's defiance and refusal to be labeled or defined by others. The colors red and blue symbolize the dichotomy of society's expectations and the individual's desire for freedom. They are reclaiming their autonomy and expressing that they are not bothered by how others perceive them. It's a powerful statement of self-acceptance and embracing one's own uniqueness.

The second verse expands on the theme of conformity and the pressure to fit into prescribed roles. The mention of "walls they drew" suggests the limitations imposed by society, and the line "Soaked in fake perfection" emphasizes the facade that people often adopt to conform to these expectations. The reference to buying "the apple and all the prune" denotes the consumption-driven culture that propagates a particular narrative or ideal. The phrase "story they wrote to rule" further underlines the control exerted by societal norms.

The recurring line "Eyes to the ground that keeps us down, we're fixed to the floor" portrays the sense of entrapment and stagnation caused by conformity. It highlights the need to break free from these constraints and find one's own path.

Overall, "Red and Blue" encourages individuality, self-acceptance, and the rejection of societal pressures. It serves as a reminder that one's worth is not determined by others' judgments or expectations.

Down on streets where they see you
In the areas where people notice and pay attention to you

You're deemed so unsilt your view
You are perceived as being so flawed that it distorts your perspective

Grown up and tied to the nine
Matured and constrained by societal expectations

Soaked in fake perfection
Immersed in an artificial sense of flawlessness

When all the eyes you never knew
When the gaze of people you were never familiar with

Make you wanna be see-through
Causes you to desire to be transparent and reveal your true self

All the walls they drew
All the barriers they created

Paint them like you wanted to
Color them according to your own desires

Go buy the apple and all the prune
Go acquire all the superficial symbols of success

In a story they wrote to rule
In a narrative they constructed to dominate and control

Eyes to the ground
Keep your gaze focused downwards

That keeps us down
That restricts and oppresses us

We're fixed to the floor
We are firmly attached to the ground

You can call me one
You can refer to me as one

You can call me two
You can refer to me as two

I don't mind what you do
I am indifferent to how you label or perceive me
