"Shit City" by H.E.A.T is a song that portrays a sense of disillusionment and frustration. The lyrics depict a society that initially had high hopes and believed in their own success and power, as represented by the line "We were the kings of the world." However, they soon realize that they have been deceived and things have taken a turn for the worse. The song suggests that the society has made a deal with the devil, metaphorically representing a corrupt force or authority figure. This deal has resulted in their downfall and isolation. They are now described as criminals and animals, forced to live deep underground in a place referred to as "Shit City." The chorus emphasizes the sentiment that they are no longer welcome, both literally and metaphorically. The negativity and disappointment are further highlighted through the repetition of the phrase "We're not welcome anymore." The lyrics also convey a sense of betrayal, as the society believed in a brighter future but ended up underground, far from their initial aspirations. Overall, "Shit City" tells a story of the consequences of misplaced trust and the bitter reality experienced by a society that once held promises of greatness.
