Out Ta Get Me Lyrics

Been hidin' out
And layin' low
It's nothing new ta me
Well you can always find a place to go
If you can keep your sanity
They break down the doors
And they rape my rights but
They won't touch me
They scream and yell
And fight all night
You can't tell me
I lose my head
I close my eyes
They won't touch me
'Cause I got somethin'
I been buildin' up inside
For so fuckin' long
Chorus:
They're out ta get me
They won't catch me
I'm innocent
They won't break me
Sometimes it's easy to forget where you're goin'
Sometimes it's harder to leave
And evrytime you think you know just what you're doin'
That's when your troubles exceed
They push me in a corner
Just to get me to fight but
They won't touch me
They preach and yell
And fight all night
You can't tell me
I lose my head
I close my eyes
They won't touch me
'Cause I got somethin'
I been buildin' up inside
I'm already gone
Chorus
Some people got a chip on their shoulder
An some would say it was me
But I didn't buy that fifth of whiskey
That you gave me
So I'd be quick to disagree
Chorus
They're out ta get me
They won't catch me
I'm innocent
So you can
Suck me
Take that one to heart

This song is about Axl's trouble with the police. "They won't catch me" obviously it's about running away, and they (the police) won't catch Axl.

Song Meaning

Hey I love this song to! The meaning is about when Axl was just an innocent kid while he suffered physical and sexual abuse from his fathers and observed his parents constantly fighting.

I always thought this song was about the police and I have thought so for years however now looking into it, could it be a song about chastidy, if it were i'm sure they wouldn't admit it.
