"I do not dare deny the basic beast inside - It's right here, it's controlling my mind". I love that lyric. We're all just basic beasts with thin veils of societal conventions holding us back.
The song is more about the paradox of how one "deserves" to inherit animal-like levels of lust, wrath, sloth and greed, when those (evolutionarily necessary) traits have been doing more harm than good to the last few generations.
Funny, I got kind of the opposite from it. It seemed to be from the point of view of someone on death row asking why he deserved to die if he was only following the same evolved nature that we all have.
I kinda see it differently, I feel that it may be about how our progress is just as natural as evolution and that change shouldn't be feared, despite our more basic instincts which may cause us to want to resist progress, but to each their own I suppose.
Frank Reiter It's the same underlying conflict -- human nature (with its need to kill people who do such-and-such) versus society (with its need not to have murderers in it). The only difference is which side of the conflict one chooses to accept, at the expense of demonizing the other.
civilization,society and morals are just masks with which we cover our nature we may be more complicated but in the end its just the same eat drink fuck sleep and die and repeat to preserve changes.There is no andvancement just accumulation no conflict just hipocricy of what you want to and what you need to beacuse you already got what you need so you can't distinguish the two anymore
Jordy Mares 1) That knowledge doesn't prove anyone is a Christian. 2) Why do you care? 3) I don't have to prove anything. 4) Yes, this is me acknowledging I don't know the answer to that question

I like how people here are arguing and I'm just like Hell naw I ain't gonna try and make sense of this song, imma enjoy it. You're all trying to make sense of evolution, something that is not easy to explain
The first time I heard KoRn was in 2011 when I was about 3 years old and I heard this song in a video of a guy modifying a train simulator game to add speed to the trains and they derailed. After i am Rocker And Metalhead and I Like KoRn 🤘🤘🎸🎸
Religion on a personal level is not a bad thing, in fact it can be extremely helpful to people especially in tough times. When it is turned into an institution and people start using the concept of faith to inhibit or harm others, that's when religion is bad. I was raised a Southern Baptist and I'm devout. Evolution is real, I am pro-marriage equality, and I don't force my beliefs on others. I go to church only when I feel the need to be near those share my beliefs. Religion isn't bad by itself.

@@Billy_Darley food for thought. What if evolution is real, although evolution was God's idea all along? hmm What am I saying, evolution is very much real... it is the theory of evolution you're thinking about.
Waffnor it really doesn’t have something to do with religion…but! The original message in the lyrics is that humans might be devolving into apes, but many religions say that humans were always humans, no evolution, they say that they came from heaven.
I mainly remeber listening to this while playing a downloadable disc, monster truck game when i was like 8. I realise those were some of the most simplistic and happiest times. I think about it differently now. Yet, this song makes me feel the same.
Evolution. When The People unite as one. Humanity as a species could flourish into a whole new entity. A civilization far more understanding than what exists today.
For people who don't get it When he says "Nothing much has changed", even though evolution means change, he means that "even though we evolved to be better, we still are primitive"
Wow, this song perfectly describes the pure animalistic rage I've felt when I get angry at people. Whe n I've wanted to burry my fists into someone's skull. "I'm dominated by this animal that's locked up inside." The picture of the animalistic rage in my mind is usually either a lion or a shark. I just want to rip them to shreds.
Epic Awesome song its like a battle between humans along with darkstalkers and angels vs evil demonic monsters from beyond the battle between life or death good and evil, light vs dark
This is one of Korn's best songs!

No man you have to get covid and survive it to become a meta
The song is not only about evolution is also
About animalistic eruges and how we are nothing
More than animals our selfs.
Lonelylittlewolf Animals are controlled by locomotion their whole lives, were not. There's so much more to us humans.
Can we not just enjoy a song? I'M a Christian, praise the Holy Trinity, but I still enjoy this song and don't deny basic facts of science.

Okay but can we just talk about how awesome this song is for a second.

This song trancends time with its relevance
Best song ever!!!
This is my favorite Korn song
I like this song a lot, I made a cover:
ua-cam.com/video/m4Hv6P5QH58/v-deo.html
That’s one of my favorites too ❤❤❤😊😊
I think that This song is basically saying that no matter how far we think we’ve evolved we are still slaves to the animals inside.
This song makes me think of Jurassic park
same

It's Evolution!... Just Evolution!!!!!!!
Yo I'm a Christian and still I don't care about the evolution stuff this is just a kick ass song so just enjoy it guys
There's a shield in Borderlands 2 called Evolution.
I think of this song when I see or hear that shield name.
I'm wearing my KoRn shirt while listening to this awesome song.
Perfect Gym Music
We all have a beast inside.Just don't feed him!
why, can it be fed? how?
Establish boundaries, and learn to live with it as opposed to fighting it, which will only piss it off.
Im a werewolf
Late
I mean look at me look what happened
I'm digging with my fingertips
I'm gripping at the ground I stand upon
I'm searching for fragile bones
Evolution
I'm never gonna be refined
Keep trying but I won't assimilate
Should we have come far in time?
Watch the bough break
And I'm sorry, I don't believe
By the evidence that I see
That there's any hope left for me
It's evolution, just evolution
And I, I do not dare deny the basic beast inside
It's right here, it's controlling my mind
And why do I deserve to die?
I'm dominated by this animal that's locked up inside
Close up to get a real good view
I'm betting that the species will survive
Hold tight, I'm getting inside you
Evolution
And when we're gonna find these bones
They're gonna want to keep them in a jar
The number one virus caused by
Procreation
And the planet may go astray
In a million years I say
Those motherfuckers were all deranged
It's evolution, just evolution
And I, I do not dare deny the basic beast inside
It's right here, it's controlling my mind
And why do I deserve to die?
I'm dominated by this animal that's locked up inside
Take a look around

well they still are going!
Take a look aorund... when Korn wrote this song this is was a hypothesis... but now it's reality... take a look around...
I sit in front of the microwave for a hour a day now I grew a tumor on my left armpit but is ok cause it's "EVOLUTIONNNNNNNNN...
