The song's music video portrays a young boy living in Oildale: "We thought it was fitting to have the first single and video from Korn III – Remember Who You Are be 'Oildale (Leave Me Alone)', since Oildale is near where we grew up as kids," said Davis. "It's a poverty-stricken area surrounded by endless, rich oil fields. The money doesn't really help the local people and it's tough for local kids to get out of there. I feel blessed that our music busted us out."

Korn - Oildale (Leave Me Alone)
The song's title references Oildale, a suburb of Korn's hometown of
Bakersfield, California. Even though the lyrics don't mention the town,
they appear to be referring to frontman Jonathan Davis's troubled past.
