Canadian artist Dax, whose compositions are known for their deep and engaging narratives and unique style, comes with a story that explores the psychological implications of toxic relationships in his new song, “Narcissist,” with Phix.
Dax, who once aspired to play basketball for a career, began to pursue music in college instead, and then became an outstanding rapper, being found by SoundCloud and composing hits like “Cash Me Outside”.
“Narcissist” is a spellbinding narration of the scandalous nature of maltreatment and its devastating consequences. With chilling melodies to add to his signature rap technique conveying the tale of heartbreak and devastation caused by a manipulative and narcissistic partner, Dax puts it all together deftly.
The song’s lyrics offer an insightful reflection on the insidious nature of an abusive relationship where the emotions of the victim are relentlessly exploited by the ‘puppeteer’ who misuses words and stops feeling for the narrator victim.
This track can see deep inside the psychological manipulation of such relationships, showing the narrator’s crazy nature in an attempt to maintain their sanity and sense of self.
The song lyrics, ‘Narcissistic bouts of rage’ ‘Accusations every day’ and ‘Arguments that you’d create’ paint a portrait of the vicious cycle of emotional abuse.
Moreover, what is left of that toxic relationship is the subject of the song, “Narcissist.” It indicates the bewilderment, and hesitancy on the narrator’s part to put the past behind and heal as well as the worry that the injuries may affect future relationships. This song acts like a literary representation of derailed identity and deep fracture, which connects with every individual, who met those conditions.
“Narcissist” by Dax is a touching investigation into the damaging impact narcissists can have on a person. However, the track emphasises that the road to regaining one’s identity and the overall healing process that has to be gone through is demanding.
In the the song “Narcissist,” Dax not only illustrates his outstanding talent as a rapper and a writer but also, portrays the power required to overcome the break up from a traumatic relationship.
This song is a metaphorical statement of the force we muster to overcome and recover from the psychological maze that remained after narcissistic abuse.
