A "pride" of lions is essentially like a "pack" of wolves, or a family unit. So "lean on my pride" could actually mean Tyler leaning on others because when he goes astray he ends up "cutting his lip" on things he knows he shouldn't do. It's written in an unorthodox way because "lean on my pride" and "I'm a lion" are both statements of self-pride. But put together, they actually mean something totally different, depending on your interpretation of the word "pride". It's a beautiful verse because you can accurately interpret it multiple ways, especially how it relates to the other lyrics in the song.

It’s not leaning on yourself. Lean on your pride-family, squad, friends…the Clique
@HaileyC2019 ай бұрын
Also, pride is a collective noun for lions 😊 And more literally the click is his pride, and he saying that we can lean on each other

Deep favorite. SO fire. So to WARN you: Bandito is hauntingly beautiful. Pet Cheetah is DIFFERENT but best banger next to Cut My Lip. Leave the City hauntingly haunting.

I felt your Cut my Lip dancing in my soul 🥰!! I love watching you enjoy them so much!! Much ❤️!!!

Cut my lip is one of my favorite songs because of the instrumental. That very last part where the instrumental plays while the echo says "might as well" is like a caress on my face. Bandito is next, the clique anthem🎉

The awesome thing about twenty one pilots is their music can be interpreted in so many ways, none of them “wrong.” They write very intentionally that way, they’re true artists.

Everything sounds like it’s supposed to be there- and it wasn’t written by a formula by a committee of song-writers and producers! Tyler is a genius! You should see him play and mix this one live in the Storyteller session from Brooklyn!

Here is my 5 tracks from Trench. Chlorine, My Blood, Cut My Lip, Pet Cheetah, Leave The City. It is really hard to pick only 5 from an album that is practically perfect.

Tyler tells one story with his lyrics, one story with his singing, one story with his music, and a story in his videos. Perfection

think this is the first TOP song you got up and danced to. But it also makes me think you'll really enjoy Scaled and Icy... so many instruments and much dancier (if thats a word) and upbeat.

"Lean on my pride, I'm a lion." Triple entendre. Lean on my literal pride, like I don't need help, but a group of lions is also called a "Pride." So I gotta lean on my family/friends/fans (my people). Those same people are the pride of my life and the manifestation of my labors! 🤯 Nobody does it like TØP. Brilliant!

This song helped me push through difficult times. Having to do things that were harmful to me, but nevertheless had to be done. But thankfully I had my people to help me get through it. I think you missed my favorite line. "I don't mind at all, lean on my pride, lean on my pride, I'm a lion" It's my favorite because I knew I couldn't get through without my people. They were everything to me in those moments.

Bandito I think I next. There's a part where he sings Sahlo Folina. You'll have heard that in Overcompensate but this is where it came from. Bandito is another masterclass. Get yourself ready. You've been warned (but probably not enough)

Yes, yes, and more yes!! This is TOP tier for me. I was so drawn to the lyrics and the music is just chef's kiss. Now, the Storyteller Performance version - DJ, you're not ready for that!! It's icing on the cake. You won't be able to contain yourself! You think you love these songs... well, prepare to be completly unable to chose a favorite ever again! There's your warning. I would suggest finishing up this album then doing the Storyteller Performance of Tyler playing his reimagined Trench songs live. 💯🔥 (And you'll have another meltdown opportunity with the mtvunplugged after you do Scaled and Icy.) 🔥🥰 Great reaction! This one's a repeater fs. Oh, there's also a piano only version of this, too. And "lean on my pride," well, that's us, the Clique aka the Banditos 😉 If you go back through some of their songs you've already done you'll pick up on some pride/lion themes, especially Migraine and this one. And he's wearing a lion shirt in Guns for Hands. Can't wait!!!!!! ❤|-/💛
