The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Revenge" by the artist "XXXTENTACION"

Contents

In his song "Revenge," XXXTENTACION delves into the destructive nature of unrequited love and the obsession with the past. The lyrical protagonist contemplates forgiving himself for past mistakes, recognizing it as the first step towards healing.

However, despite the seeming desire to move on, the protagonist cannot let go of the painful memories of a past relationship. The metaphor of two dug graves symbolizes not only the end of love but also the self-destruction caused by the protagonist's inability to let go of the pain. He acknowledges his mistakes but can't forgive himself or his former lover.

In the chorus, the protagonist questions the idea of revenge, comparing the emotional pain inflicted upon him to murder, theft, and a broken heart. He doesn't believe in the possibility of a peaceful parting and prefers to "rot in his grave," clinging to memories and pain.

The repetition of the phrase "I'ma rot in my grave" emphasizes the depth of despair and the protagonist's unwillingness to move on. The final question "Is my pain your freedom?" leaves the listener with a sense of hopelessness and the cyclical nature of suffering.

I think I, I think I finally, found a way to forgive myself from mistakes I made in my past.

I think that's the first step, right?

You agree?

I've dug two graves for us, my dear,

Can't pretend that I was perfect, leaving you in fear,

Oh man, what a world, the things I hear!

If I could act on my revenge, then, oh, would I?

Some kill, some steal, some break your heart,

And you thought that I would let it go and let you walk,

Well, broken hearts break bones, so break up fast,

And I don't wanna let it go, so in my grave I'll rot.

I've dug two graves for us, my dear,

Can't pretend that I was perfect, leaving you in fear,

Oh man, what a world, the things I hear!

If I could act on my revenge, then, oh, would I?

Some kill, some steal, some break your heart,

And you thought that I would let it go and let you walk,

Well, broken hearts break bones, so break up fast,

And I don't wanna let it go, so in my grave I'll rot.

In my grave, I'll rot,

In my grave, I'll rot,

In my grave, I'll rot,

In my grave, I'll rot,

In my grave, I'll rot,

In my grave, I'll rot,

In my grave, I'll rot,

I'll rot, I'll rot, I'll rot.

Is my pain your freedom?

Is all of my pain your freedom?

Enjoy...
