The Way Of The Fist
by
Five Finger Death Punch
So, I think the surface meaning of this song is that there was a guy who had a problem with another. Let us say X started the problem and Y is the other. X poked an issue that offended Y. It appears x put forth the effort to create a fight, despite warnings from Y. So when Y is provoked, a 'war' starts. And like Y warned, X gets the shit kicked out of them. Y showed no mercy. X seems to have won a 'battle' within this 'war'. Y wants X to know that it didn't phase him and that he will win either way. But deeper meaning suggests that Y is a person that is in a conflict with some variable (Such as early abuse or drug addiction) represented by X.
