Song Review: Faget Song by Korn
“Faget” is a song by the American nu-metal band Korn, released in 1994 as part of their self-titled debut album. It is one of their most controversial and thought-provoking tracks, delving into themes of isolation, bullying, and societal judgment.
Faget showcases Korn’s signature blend of heavy guitar riffs, pounding basslines, and Jonathan Davis’ distinctive vocal style.
The song opens with a haunting guitar melody, which sets the somber and introspective tone for the lyrics to follow.
The verses build up tension with a combination of aggressive guitar work and Davis’ emotional delivery, leading into a cathartic chorus that features powerful vocal hooks.
Faget explores the feelings of being an outsider and the pain of being bullied or mistreated by others.
The song’s title itself is meant to be provocative, as it’s a derogatory term that targets individuals who don’t conform to societal norms.
However, the lyrics aim to reclaim and confront that derogatory label, empowering those who have felt marginalized or different.
Faget addresses themes of self-acceptance and resilience, encouraging listeners to embrace their individuality and not succumb to the pressures of fitting in.
It speaks to the struggles faced by many people who have experienced alienation or discrimination, resonating with those seeking solace and understanding.
Faget stands as a powerful and impactful song that showcases Korn’s ability to address complex emotions and societal issues within their music.
Its heavy sound, raw lyrics, and cathartic nature have made it a fan favorite and a notable part of Korn’s discography.
Faget Lyrics Korn
Him
Here I am different in this normal world
Why did you tease me, made me feel upset?
Fucking stereotypes feeding their heads
I am ugly, please just go away
Him
I can see it’s hard to find
This blessing in disguise
Him
Why you treat me this way?
Made the hate stay
As I walk I can never seem to escape
All the laughing, all the pain
If you were me, what would you do?
Nothing, probably, you’d just throw me away
I can see it’s hard to find
Him
This blessing in disguise
Why you treat me this way?
Him
Made the hate stay
Faget
Faget
Faget
Here I am, different in this normal world
Why did you tease me, made me feel upset?
Fucking stereotypes feeding their heads
I am ugly, please just go away
Him
I can see it’s hard to find
This blessing in disguise
Why you treat me this way?
Him
Made the hate stay

You’ll see
I’m just a pretty boy, whatever you call it
You wouldn’t know a real man if you saw it
It keeps going on day after day, son
You faget, get away, we don’t want none
I’m sick and tired of people treating me this way every day
Who gives a fuck, right now I got something to say
To all the people that think I’m strange
And I should be out here locked up in a cage
You don’t know what the hell is up now anyway
You got this pretty boy feeling like I’m enslaved
To a world that never appreciated shit
Y’all can suck my dick and fucking like it
He had my gun but he had the body mighty any say
He had my gun but he had the body mighty anyway
He had my gun but he had the body mighty, going to say
He had my gun but he had the body mighty anyway
He had my gun but he had the body mighty any say
He had my gun but he had the body mighty going away
He had my gun but he had the body mighty, going to say
He had my gun but he had the body mighty anyway
I’m just a pretty boy, I’m not supposed to fuck a girl
I’m just a pretty boy, living in this fucked up world
I’m just a pretty boy, I’m not supposed to fuck a girl
I’m just a pretty boy, living in this fucked up world
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life, who am I?
All my life
I’m just a faget (faget)
I’m just a faget (faget)
I’m just a faget (faget)
I’m a faget (faget)
I’m not a faget (or am I?) (faget)
I’m not a faget (or am I?) (faget)
I’m not a faget (or am I?) (faget)
You motherfucking queers
