    This song is about how an addict is controlled by drugs. The drug is the master and the addict is the puppet. Think of this song as the drug singing to the addict.

    • @batteen92
      @batteen92 2 роки тому +550

      Also the song mirrors the feeling of the peaks and valleys of addiction, with the first two verses and chorus representing the frantic need for the next hit, the first solo (with the softer guitars) representing the calming euphoria post consumption, the second much heavier solo representing the violent and painful feeling of coming down or the hangover, and the last verse and chorus starts the cycle over again.

  • @CodieBodie2223
    @CodieBodie2223 2 роки тому +1411

    The first part of the song is the drug enticing the addict to take more, because the drug has control. The middle, where it slowed down, is when the drug kicks in. The third part is where the addict regrets it and understands that the drug is only lying to them- they aren’t seeing things for how they truly are- but of course they continue to go back for more. It is an endless cycle causing their “life to burn faster”.

    *Drugs/Alcohol is the master; the addict is the puppet. I thought "chop your breakfast on a mirror" would make it easy to get the meaning. Either way, any song off this album and "And Justice For All" is a must. They're my favorite band so I love all their songs but you can't go wrong with any song off of those two.*

    I’m sure it’s been said, but this song is about a struggle with addiction…the “master” is the drug…the song is sung through the perspective of the drug. It’s one of, if not THE, greatest metal songs of all time.

    Let me start off by saying, I’ve been subscribed to you for years. I first found you from your reactions to logic and other rappers. (Reaction video addict).
    Metal has a stereotype for being demonic and there are some bands that are. Metallica is not one of those bands. Metallica is part of the sub genre of metal called thrash where in the 80’s it was all about speed and skill.
    The first song that got me hooked to Metallica was “One”. It has a crazy drop, 4 solos, beautiful notes, and a crazy story. It’s considered as one of if not the greatest metal song of all time.
    Coming from a rap fan who has listened to anything from LA Capone and rondonumbanine, gunna, Joey badass, carti, Joyner Lucas, rakim, the roots, big L, etc. I can tell you metal is very similar in a lot of ways. Now I think Metallica is my favorite out of any artist or band I’ve ever heard.

      I can relate big time man.. I grew up in Pontiac Michigan which is basically a mini Detroit, I’m only 30mins away.. but it’s a very urban, hood with a huge variety of us poor folks.. I grew up on all sorts of music and thankful I did, most DONT get that great opportunity and experience.. I got country and gospel from my Gparents, my mom and her siblings were mainly rock, but also being in the hood I got all sorts of hip hop, r&b, soul, Motown (especially being in MI), on top of my Mexican and Puerto Rican friends showing me Tejano music and a blend of a lot shit.. def made me a far different and better well rounded person… but still to this day, pushing 40, I love everything and even have been playing music for 30yrs now and Metallica is that band that really kicked it all off.. still one of my favorite all time bands.. but they are def a different beast compared to most and it’s evident with how long they’ve stayed around, relevant and popular, def legends and I doubt we’ll ever see a band get as huge as they are or have the type of impact ever again

      U doubt, never heard thrash metal song about bitches or money and smoking weed...Thrash metal has instruments and rap doesn't..It's not hard to sample some song from 60 or 70 and than call it 'My beat'..So i doubt that thay have a lot in common, they don't..not trying to attack but it is what it is...and it's clear that u are new to this or u didn't go into other stuff, there are like dozen of other awesome bands such as Slayer, Testament, Exodus, Anthrax, Megadeath(of older bands) and many more underground and heavier form of Thrash metal called Teutonic Thrash Metal with bands such as Kreator, Sodom..etc🤘

    The song is about drugs controlling an addict.
    Not only are the lyrics about drugs, but even the way they chose to compose the actual music had meaning behind it.
    The melodic breakdown in the middle of the song represents the addict getting their fix and the feelings of being high. The dark heavy riffs after that represent the addict coming down from their high and the frantic search to find more drugs afterwards.
    The song is a masterpiece lol

  • @StevieDrawStuff
    @StevieDrawStuff 2 роки тому +23

    This song is about drug addiction and is in 3 parts. This is Metallica's masterpiece imo.
    Part one is needing the drug and getting that fix, part 2, the slow part is the high and part 3 is coming down.
    Chop your breakfast on a mirror, then fix me (ie getting a fix or the plea for help that the drug can fix his problem).

    I've always wondered if this song deserves 2 reactions if the reactor didn't catch the full meaning of the song lyrics. The 2nd reaction they'd know ahead it was about drugs and each lyric would drop like a hammer. And we'd also get to see that look of realization that when the beautiful interlude shows up that they're hearing the addict's momentary high before it comes crashing down again.

    The speed of metal can be hard to get into until you've listened to it a few times, once you are used to it it will slow down to your ears and you can understand the lyrics and hear all the intricacies of the instruments. If you are into football think of it like that, you know how they say that when a player comes from college to the NFL the game is fast for them, but as they get used to it the game slows down for them.
