Bottom Line
Swollen Members Lyrics

Bounce, c'mon (8x)
Repetitive call to action to bounce and get ready as the song begins

ROCK, we're the heaviest
Bold claim that the band is extremely heavy and a force to be reckoned with

STOP, or you're gonna get
Warning to stop whatever one is doing before it incurs some danger

CAUGHT, cause we never rest, drop this on ya
An assertion that the Swollen Members are relentless and will attack at any time

We're the heaviest, you would never want to
Reiteration of the band's heaviness, and the meaning behind the previous lines

Talk shit cause we come back to haunt ya
A threat to anybody who insults or disrespects the Swollen Members, and that they will respond harshly

I rock heavy like a 70's icon
Comparing himself with heavier acts of the past, and his own reputation for delivering heavy rap lyrics

Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven, my mind's gone
Referencing the iconic Led Zeppelin song, and stating his mental state of producing heavy music

Even though I only did acid twice
Confessing that he has only tried drugs a few times, probably to discredit the assumption that psychedelic drugs are behind his heavy lyrics

My rap's a vice; your head's in it ask the price
Claiming that his rap has an addictive quality, and asking how much it will cost for others to get his songs out of their heads

For you to be released and me to be happy
A promise that he would not stop until his rap had taken hold of someone's mind.

With all of your suffering I'm brutally crafty
Confessing that he takes pleasure in causing the audience pain with his words and using his talent to do so effectively

Coming up with the best selections
The Swollen Members believe that they select the best lyrics for their songs

To get inside of you like I'm a chest infection
Using a chest infection as a metaphor for getting into someone's mind and being difficult to get rid of

Your best protection is to get down and drown
Asking the audience to give in and surrender to the music

Remember that the Members don't clown around
Suggesting that the Swollen Members take their craft seriously and expect their audience to do the same

I'm found downtown with rolls of cash
Imagery of a rapper with wealth and success

My passion is smashing you disposable cats I'm old fashion
His passion is attacking those who don't respect him, referring to them as disposable and that his attitude is one that traditional rappers would adopt

With swift abilities to lift and drop
His skills are fast and effective

And ambulant skill plus whip and chop
He has the ability to change his style and dominate regardless of the situation

I dump on a chump and punk ya assoc ass
He will attack people who are beneath him, and it's implied that he has the support of other rap artists (assoc)

I'm done with rap, now I'm prepared to cash in
He is looking to retire from rap and reap the benefits of his work

Ayo, I'm kick ass thick as a brick
Launching into a new verse by introducing himself as someone who is tough

you bitch ass
A line to insult someone who would dare to challenge him

Quick on the draw I come equipped with a pickaxe
He is fast, and ready at any time to attack

Rock solid, you cock-a-holics
Comparing himself to a rock, and mocking those who follow trends mindlessly

I'm not gon frolic any longer
Refusing to participate in anything that he considers to be frivolous or not worth his time

Cause my crew's much stronger
He has strength in numbers through his association with his rap group

Donkey Kong stomp, Pac-Man chomp
Using characters from classic video games to express his aggression and power

Attacking competition I'm back in my position
His goal is to attack his competition, and stand at the top of his musical hierarchy

Pop off with the must stop opposition
Referring to his opponents as mandatory targets, necessary to proceed with his dominance

You have to listen cause mad division of beauty and grace
Asking the audience to pay attention, using a phrase to suggest contrast between his aggression and grace (beauty)

See what I do to your face
Threatening violence to his opposition

I might need an alibi it all depends
He may do something illegal and be in need of someone to say he was somewhere else during the incident

And I don't give a fuck if you don't like it, suck this
He has no concern for those who don't agree with him, and expresses that with a vulgar statement

I'm a small giant, that's trying, dying to find success
Expressing the dichotomy of his desire for success and his sense of not actually having it, being the underdog that is fighting to be recognized

You look upset stupid fuckhead
Using an insult that is highly derogatory, intended to make his opponent angry or afraid

I'm locked, stocked, and loaded the most devoted
He is prepared for anything, and puts significant effort into his music

I'm a keep bringing the pain 'til your brains exploded
He will continue to be aggressive and cause his opponents' pain until they cannot handle it anymore

I'm motivated, voted and rated as one of the greatest
He has the credentials to back up his confidence, including high ratings and recognition from peers

One of the most loved and hated and still haven't made it
Despite his success, he still has unresolved issues around his own recognition as a successful artist

Ya know?
Ending the verse by asking his audience if they understand his message

I'm addicted to speed but not the drug
He has an addiction to success, and not the typical things people associate addiction with

I lead by example my breed can hunt
He sets a precedent for those who follow him, and those people are capable of working hard

Seen enough mayhem, step into the A.M
He has been through enough chaos and conflict, and is ready to move on to the next chapter in his musical career

Weapons of contention for any given occasion
His music is something that can be used for conflict, and he is willing to start or engage in that type of thing, depending on the occasion

I attack with Battleaxe Warriors from the armory
Referring to himself and his group as Battleaxe Warriors with a collection of weapons, drenched in the image of battle

Some of us kill you mentally; some of us hurt you vitally (Heavy)
Lyrically, his group is death to anyone who attempts to challenge him

A miracle of modern science
Referring to himself as a miraculous figure in the area of modern music

With the naturally passionate carnivorous diet (Heavy)
Describing an unorthodox way of describing his songs consuming everyone who hears them

We're an anomaly, not a novelty
Stating that his success is not due to just uniqueness, but rather true quality

Enter at your own risk, private property
He's putting a warning on his brand of music as you'll be tresspassing against him and his people by intruding on his music territory.

Do not trespass beware of dogs
A further emphasis on the warning from the previous line

Bear traps, alarms, and a right to bare arms
He has protective measures in place and will legally protect himself and his group

Where laws ain't applied my jaws homicide
He will break the law if he needs to, and his music can destroy people

The water ain't safe whoever said it was lied
The imagery behind this line could mean that there is danger or sharks for one to avoid when in water i.e., to stay out of trouble by avoiding him and his music.
