The lyrics reflect the external reality faced by today's society and created this song based on the current state of society, so that the external reality can clarify the meaning contained in the lyrics. In the past, this song seemed exaggerated and underestimated for some people with the opinion "punk kids don't need government criticism because of their life on the streets and just nonsense" but in fact the song is relevant to the current situation. The band of this song dared to make lyrics that were frontal and offensive to the government, even though the marginal band whose musical background was punk and punk children was just nonsense because of their idealists who lived on the streets and were grumbled, but it turned out to be very relevant to the current situation. In this case, music becomes one of the effective media to convey messages to the general audience. The language used in the song is Indonesian, which is the official language of Indonesia. Marjinal made this song with the aim to voice their dissatisfaction with the state of the country and provide a reminder to the Indonesian people that change needs to be made.
