Linkin Park Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell us all again
What you think we should be
What the answers are
What it is we can't see
Tell us all again
How to do what you say
How to fall in line
How there's no other way

But oh, we all know

You're guilty all the same
Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger
But there's no one else to blame

You're guilty all the same
Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger
But there's no one else to blame

You're guilty all the same

Show us all again
That our hands are unclean
That we're unprepared
That you have what we need
Show us all again
'Cause we cannot be saved
Cause the end is near
Now there's no other way
And oh, you will know

You're guilty all the same
Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger
But there's no one else to blame

You're guilty all the same
Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger
But there's no one else to blame

There's no one else to blame
Guilty all the same

Guilty all the same
You're guilty all the same

Yeah, you already know what it is
Can y'all explain, what kind of land is this
When a man has plans of being rich
If he falls off his plans, he's wealthy?
Dirty money scheme, a clean split
Nonsense the same, he didn't call for this, he's filthy
Talk team, they take the paper route
All they think about is bank accounts, assets and realty
Anybody's expense, no shame with a clear conscience
No regrets and guilt free, you claim that ain't the way that he built me
Smoke scream, we're going in flames
Know as soon as they're done what the deal be
Say it's time for things to change
We arrange that dope product we built cheap
Anything if it's more to gain
Dream, manipulated like artists, it's real deep
Until no more remains, but I'm still me
Like authentic hip-hop and rock, to pop and radio
You record companies kill me
Try to force me to strain it, no way
They got the gall to say "yo, how real can real be?"
You feel me? you will see, the greed will be to blame
Greedy for the fame, TV or a name
Media, the game, to me your all the same
You're guilty

You're guilty all the same
Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger
But there's no one else to blame

You're guilty all the same
Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger
But there's no one else to blame

Guilty all the same

Guilty all the same
Guilty all the same

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of this song, Guilty All The Same by Linkin Park feat. Rakim, deal with the issue of individuals who constantly seek to control other people's behavior through manipulation and trickery. The songwriters address these individuals directly, asking them to explain what they think people should be and what answers the people can't see. The writers are tired of being told how to act and how there is no other way to react except to do what these controlling people say. Everyone knows that the individuals who are controlling the others are themselves guilty of the same things that they are pointing their fingers at.

The song is a testament to speaking out against those who act out of their own self-interest and do not care about the harm they cause to others. The lyrics are a warning that people should be aware of those who seek to manipulate and control them and should rise above their tactics. The song challenges listeners to be their own person, to not fall in line, and to be aware of those who seek to control them.

Line by Line Meaning

Tell us all again What you think we should be What the answers are What it is we can't see
You keep telling us how to live our lives and what we should believe in. You claim to know all the answers and what lies beyond our understanding.

Tell us all again How to do what you say How to fall in line How there's no other way But oh, we all know
You keep telling us how to obey your rules and fit into the mold you have created. You insist that there is no other path to follow, but deep down we all know that isn't true.

You're guilty all the same Too sick to be ashamed You want to point your finger But there's no one else to blame
You are just as guilty as the rest of us, but you refuse to acknowledge it. You are so consumed by your own ambition and greed that you try to place the blame on others.

Show us all again That our hands are unclean That we're unprepared That you have what we need
You keep reminding us that we are flawed and inadequate. You claim to have all the solutions to our problems and hold the power to fulfill our needs.

Show us all again 'Cause we cannot be saved Cause the end is near Now there's no other way And oh, you will know
You insist that we are beyond redemption and must follow your instructions in order to survive. You warn of impending doom and imply that there is no other option.

Yeah, you already know what it is Can y'all explain, what kind of land is this When a man has plans of being rich If he falls off his plans, he's wealthy?
You are well aware of the corrupt nature of our society. You question the very concept of wealth and success, as those who fail to achieve it are seen as worthless.

Dirty money scheme, a clean split Nonsense the same, he didn't call for this, he's filthy Talk team, they take the paper route All they think about is bank accounts, assets, and realty
You criticize the exploitative and immoral nature of the financial system, in which the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. You condemn those who prioritize money and material possessions over more meaningful values.

Media, the game, to me your all the same You're guilty
You call out the media for their complicity in perpetuating the same corrupt systems and values. You hold them accountable for their role in the destruction of society.

Guilty all the same Guilty all the same Guilty all the same
Throughout the song, you repeatedly assert that those who exploit and manipulate others for their own gain are all guilty of the same crimes. You refuse to let them off the hook and demand accountability.

altairkyle42 if selling out means using a different artistic style and approach for each album then you my friend have a shit definition of "selling out"

I hate people that ask a band to return to their old style, first of all you cant ask a band what they can and cant do, secondly asking a band to return to their old style is preposterous.

their free to do what they want and if it isjt accepted by nostalgia prone fans like you then im glad they always change

if every album up till now sounded like hybrid theory I would've ditched this one trick pony band years ago

change might not be better but it is necessary in life and for an artist

+Richie Oon I respectfully disagree. If you listen to Rakim's lyrics, he is clearly talking about men in power exploiting others, such as artists, in this instance,

"'Til pop and radio and record companies killed meTry to force me to stray and obey
And got the gall to say how real can real be
You feel me, we'll see that green could be to blame
Or greedy for the fame,
TV or a name
The media, the game,
To me you're all the same
You're guilty"

He literally says who is guilty. No veiled message to the fans who scream about getting old LP back. Maybe at most something along the lines of record companies trying to please what they think the fans want, and thus applying pressure to artists, but that is far more indirect, and without actual evidence. P.S. Great song. :D

At anybody's expense,
No shame with a clear conscience
No regrets and guilt free,

As much as I love Linkin Park, they have one of the most stubborn fanbases. When Minutes To Midnight came out (a more straightforward hard rock sound), people were mad because it wasn't rap metal. When A Thousand Suns came out (electronica/industrial album), people were mad because they "sold out" (apparently using electronics means you sold out). When Living Things came out, people were mad because it didn't have enough rock in it, and they wanted the heavy stuff back. Then The Hunting Party, their heaviest album, came out... and people were mad because it didn't sound like Hybrid Theory.

This song is definitely talking about those people.

The problem isn't that their new albums don't sound like Hybrid Theory. The problem is their new albums are boring. There's no new content in the songs. As one professional music reviewer said, "their music has all the emotional range of a MMA fight." It's like they hadn't grown at all as people in the 17 years between Hybrid Theory's release and Chester's untimely death. The reason people are asking for more Hybrid Theory is because that album brought something new to the music scene, and people want that experience again.

Franco Devaglia
All you said was that they "are correct--you didn't specify about which part. You also asked ***** "where is the great music?", making it seem as though you also thought "they" are correct about it being bad music.

Also, by definition, as long as your farts have a recognizable rhythm, they could in fact be considered music. The definition of music does not require you or anyone else to enjoy it, and the definition of "good" is always subjective and never objectively right or wrong.

I don't make rap, but I learned so much about writing lyrics by studying Rakim's work; he's brilliant. Lots of double meanings and complex rhyme schemes in this song. Also, I really miss hearing Chester. Hope the people who were close to him are doing okay these days.

I'm sick of the people who claim to be fans, yet all they do is criticise, if you are a true fan, you would appreciate the evolution, and respect the choice of genre. Also, if you would listen to the meaning behind the lyrics, maybe it would make more sense, so if this is what you think of their new songs as they are too much like 'pop', then you cannot call yourself a true lp fan, as the majority of people seem to be one of those who hate anything that isn't hybrid theory or chester screaming. I personally love the album one more light, and I love heavy just as much, and sadly most people just criticise all of their new work.
Thank you all the lp fans who generally appreciate the evolution of linkin park and still love all of their music❤

Most of you people think that this song is so 'hardcore' or gives the old 'rock' kind of feeling the way LP used to be, but listen to the lyrics wisely. This song represents sadness and anger, and the lyrics are referring to those 'LP fans' that keeps telling LP saying that 'C'mon, we want the old LP back and not albums like A Thousand Suns or Living Things'. LP has by far been my favorite band because of how they play with their music, they are constantly changing their music genre and the fact is, among so many bands out there, there aren't many that can do what LP does. Hell, I don't even know if there's any that can even do what LP does. I don't care how LP wishes to make their music, they can do whatever they want, their songs are packed with powerful lyrics and rythm, and I fully support them no matter the odds. If you really like LP, you'd do the same. And to those of you whiners who keep saying "We want the old LP back", you're all guilty all the same, only pointing your fingers, too sick to be ashamed.

To the real LP supporters out there, thumbs up this post so the fake ones could see it, so that they can replay the song and truly listen to the lyrics carefully and feel ashamed of themselves.
