- Intension Lyrics[These lyrics are played backwards:]
(Work hard, Stay in school, Listen to your mother, your father is right/rising/right, son... Jesus loves
you... Work hard, Stay in school, Listen to your mother, your father is right/rising/right son...)
Pure as we begin.
Pure as we come in.
Pure as we begin.
Ruled by will alone.
Pure as we begin.
Here we have a stone.
Gather, place, erase so.
Shelter turns to home.
Pure as we begin.
Here we have a stone.
Throw to stay the stranger.
Swore to crush his bones.
Ruled by will alone.
Spark becomes a flame.
Flame becomes a fire.
Light the way or warm this.
Home we occupy.
Spark becomes a flame.
Flame becomes a fire.
Forge a blade to slay the stranger.
Take whatever we desire.
Moved by will alone.
Pure as we begin.
Pure as we begin.
Move by will alone.
Leave as we come in.
Pure as light return to one.
Move by will alone.
Move by will alone.
(Work hard, Stay in school, Listen to your mother, your father is right/rising/right, son... Jesus loves
you... Work hard, Stay in school, Listen to your mother, your father is right/rising/right son...)
Pure as we begin.
Pure as we come in.
Pure as we begin.
Ruled by will alone.
Pure as we begin.
Here we have a stone.
Gather, place, erase so.
Shelter turns to home.
Pure as we begin.
Here we have a stone.
Throw to stay the stranger.
Ruled by will alone.
Spark becomes a flame.
Flame becomes a fire.
Light the way or warm this.
Home we occupy.
Spark becomes a flame.
Flame becomes a fire.
Forge a blade to slay the stranger.
Take whatever we desire.
Moved by will alone.
Pure as we begin.
Pure as we begin.
Move by will alone.
Leave as we come in.
Pure as light return to one.
Move by will alone.
Move by will alone.

✔️
When we ask ourselves what the song was truly meant to express, Tool's "Intension" is a capacious ballad that expresses the power of purity and willpower through various musical and lyrical techniques. The song opens with an intention that is pure and amplifies the will. Metaphors like 'sparks turning into flames' and 'flames growing into fires' thereof portray the small idea of 'valiance' through the mighty force of 'determination' and 'faith', thus giving the process of 'goal achievement' the attributes of 'hard work' and 'seriousness' and making it the main point of the song. The lyrics of Intension mostly convey empowerment, freedom, inspiration, hope and also invite the listener to reflect upon the subject. These positive vibrations are at the same time balanced out by the themes of purity and beginnings, determination and will, transformation and creation. Conflict and violence permeate the lyrics with such images as throwing stones and slaying a stranger, which may not be appropriate for very young audiences. The language, though, is not at all explicit, and there are not even any strong profanities or sexual content that would make the song unsuitable for a PG rating.
