Obey Lyrics – HalaCG & CDM (PROD)
[Intro]
Hey, wait up for me, I’m on my way
No place to run when he calls out my name
My face, your blood, big teeth and red, it sprays
Can’t stray, I love, I need, I must obey
[Verse 1]
I just want to make things prettier
I don’t feel bad insidious
No, don’t know the meaning of the word
See the real me
I won’t let him down, do good this time round
Be what I’m meant to be
I’ll give all of myself with all of your help
So, please, be pleased
[Chorus]
Alone, alone
I need him to come home
I roam all on my own
Where-where did he go?
Oh, no
No, don’t
Let him take me, no
I can’t think at all
Oh, he’s home
I’m no longer alone
Know he loves me
Why else would he?
Oh, no
No, don’t
Let him take me, no
I can’t think at all
[Refrain]
Hey, wait up for me, I’m on my way
No place to run when he calls out my name
My face, your blood, big teeth and red, it sprays
Can’t stray, I love, I need, I must obey
[Verse 2]
Ooh, I hear you
No, no, no, can’t run
I’ll chase and chase
And get ya!
Oh, are you over there? Are you over here?
What’s that? Did it move? I know that you’re near
You’re trying to hide, that’s not very nice
I’ll find you, let me take a bite
[Chorus]
Alone, alone
I need him to come home
I roam all on my own
Where-where did he go?
Oh, no
No, don’t
Let him take me, no
I can’t think at all
Oh, he’s home
I’m no longer alone
Know he loves me
Why else would he?
Oh, no
No, don’t
Let him take me, no
I can’t think at all
[Refrain]
Hey, wait up for me, I’m on my way
No place to run when he calls out my name
My face, your blood, big teeth and red, it sprays
Can’t stray, I love, I need, I must obey
[Verse 3]
Stalking like a lion, my face is split in two
Do you smell the fire? I’m burning, I’m burning!
I am not well-spoken at all, and yet I’m sure
Something in me’s broken, I’m yearning for love he’ll never give
Trauma
It feeds me three square meals, ooh
I’m just
A dog he’s made to heel, oh
It’s too late now
There’s one way out
One ending, wow
I’m feeling the heat
So down I go
So far below
This time I hope
I’m free
[Refrain]
Hey, wait up for me, I’m on my way
No place to run when he calls out my name
My face, your blood, big teeth and red, it sprays
Can’t stray, I love, I need, I must obey
[Chorus]
Alone, alone
I need him to come home
I roam all on my own
Where-where did he go?
Oh, no
No, don’t
Let him take me, no
I can’t think at all
[Outro]
Hey, wait up for me, I’m on my way
No place to run when he calls out my name
My face, your blood, big teeth and red, it sprays
Can’t stray, I love, I need, I must obey

[Intro]
The song opens with a chilling introduction that sets a tone of fear and submission. The protagonist feels an unavoidable force calling their name, creating a sense of inevitability. The imagery of “big teeth and red” suggests something predatory, emphasizing the feeling of being hunted or consumed. Despite the terror, they cannot escape this pull—they are compelled to obey.
[Verse 1]
In this verse, the protagonist reveals a distorted perception of reality. They seek beauty in destruction, feeling no remorse for their actions. The line “See the real me” reflects a desperate desire for recognition, yet they remain trapped in a cycle of pleasing their master. Their devotion is total; they are willing to sacrifice their autonomy for approval.
[Chorus]
The chorus highlights the protagonist’s profound isolation and longing for the return of their controller. They wander aimlessly, feeling incomplete without him. The conflicting emotions of fear and love emerge—they acknowledge the danger but cannot resist. The repeated plea of “No, don’t, let him take me” illustrates the struggle between submission and self-preservation, with their thoughts clouded and unable to break free.
[Refrain]
This section reinforces the theme of inevitability. The protagonist is drawn back to the entity, powerless to escape. The recurring imagery of blood, teeth, and obedience emphasizes the sinister nature of their devotion. Despite any desire to resist, they are bound by something more powerful than their will.
[Verse 2]
The intensity escalates as the perspective shifts to the hunter, possibly the entity or an alternate aspect of the protagonist. The playful yet menacing tone hints at a dangerous game of pursuit. The protagonist, now fully consumed by instinct, revels in the hunt, showcasing a loss of self-control. Their desperate search for a target mirrors their internal struggle—trapped, they are now part of an unbreakable cycle.
[Chorus]
The chorus repeats, emphasizing the protagonist’s turmoil. Their isolation, dependence, and inability to escape become clear. This repetition underscores the idea of an unending cycle—one they may never break free from.
[Refrain]
The refrain returns with its haunting message. The protagonist continues their downward spiral, unable to resist the call of the controlling entity. The violent imagery remains inescapable, further solidifying their fate.
[Verse 3]
This verse delves deeper into the protagonist’s psychological anguish. They see themselves as a predator, yet feel fractured inside. The reference to “burning” hints at internal torment, perhaps fueled by guilt or the realization that they will never receive the love they long for. Being “just a dog he’s made to heel” symbolizes their submission and powerlessness, emphasizing their role as a mere tool. As they descend further, they hope that this time they might find freedom—even if it brings complete destruction.
[Refrain]
Reinforcing the song’s core motif, the refrain echoes the protagonist’s inescapable fate. The cycle continues unbroken as they succumb to the force that controls them.
[Chorus]
The final chorus serves as a last plea for release. The protagonist remains trapped, unable to resist, despite fleeting moments of clarity. Their fate is sealed, lost in a whirlwind of devotion, fear, and submission.
[Outro]
Ending on a chilling note, the outro repeats the refrain one final time. The protagonist remains bound by the same force, their thoughts consumed by obedience. There is no escape or resolution—only the endless compulsion to obey.
This summary captures the dark themes of the song, focusing on submission, internal conflict, and the struggle between desire and control.
