Hacker
Death Grips Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With some Jordans and a spear
Post-Christian shit
Post chicken or the egg addiction shit
Pass the sherm stick
Neo-reality
Be the freak you wanna see
Just don't follow me
I'm on a journey to
The center of three
Grab your fucking chain and drag you through the bike lane
While everybody's like no
I got this pregnant snake
Stay surrounded by long hairs
A plethora of maniacs
And spiral stairs
Make your water break
In the apple store
Sink or swim, who fucking cares
Cut the birth cords
Press send
Yeah thick
Gaga can't handle this shit
Headed for the Sammy Davis wing
Throw up a black hole at the entrance of linens n things
On the way
Never call it a day
Visit Tesla's grave for the ninth time today
Still on the way
Bigger wigs
(When you come out your shit is gone)
I'm in your area
I know the first three numbers
I'm in
When you come out
Your shit is gone
You'll catch a jpeg to the head
Über reach
You're an intern
On Wikileaks
Most loved therefore most hated
Come and knock on the door we've been waiting for you
Game changer
Reclusive aggressive
Yingin and yanging noided
Info warrior jack the hacker
The rolling stoner
Profit on disaster
My existence is a
Momentary lapse of reason
Got the DNA of gothic lemons
Shred it thirteen times
Out of eleven
Your bad ideas are the ATM
Shed my skin
Leave it for the homeless
To sleep it
Prodigal, fuck that nautical
Teachin' bitches how to swim
I'm in your area
I know the first three numbers
I'm in
(Teachin' bitches how to swim)
Now backstroke
Through your k-hole
Don't run
Ya might slip
The table's flipped now we got all the coconuts bitch
Burmese babies under each arm
Screamin' beautiful songs
The cray cray ultra contrarion
Havin' conversations
With your car alarm
When you come out
Your shit is gone
Soon your crew will be servin' sandwiches named after me
Vietnamese style fool, please
Front row at the mass games
Untraceable by name
You speak of us in certain circles you will be dethroned or detained
Gone
I'm in your area
I know the first three numbers
I'm in
The lyrics to "Hacker" by Death Grips begin with the singer returning to a place called Tangier wearing a pair of Jordans and holding a spear, indicating that he has embraced the neo-reality that the band is famous for. The lyrics reference Post-Christian and post-chicken or the egg addiction themes. The singer then smokes a sherm stick, which is a term for a clothes-dipped blunt, and encourages listeners to "be the freak you wanna see" but warns them not to follow him. The lyrics suggest that while he is on a journey to the center of three, he is willing to grab a chain and drag listeners through a bike lane.
The singer describes his entourage as being surrounded by long hairs (hippies, perhaps), and says that they are moving through a plethora of maniacs and spiral stairs. The lyrics suggest that the singer is on an absurdist journey, as he talks about making someone's water break in an Apple Store and then saying "sink or swim, who fucking cares." The third verse references Tesla's grave and a Sammy Davis wing and the fourth verse references Wikileaks and profit on disaster.

I recently called for an Uber to take me home. When the driver arrived, he noticed I was removing headphones. Uber drivers are often bored out of their minds and try to make small talk to keep themselves awake. "What were you listening to?", he asked. "A band called Death Grips", I replied. "I FUCKING LOVE DEATH GRIPS!!" he yelled and wanted to know what song. I told him "Hacker" and he exclaims it's one of his favorites. He asks if he can switch away from the boring generic Jazz sludge playing on the car's audio to Death Grips, I say, "of course" and he punches a few buttons and "Hacker" starts. I'm about four minutes away from home, and when he gets there, he cracks a joke. "I'm in your area/ I know the first three numbers". Good show, random Uber driver. You get five stars and a tip.
