Blow
王嘉尔 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hit it every chance I get
Girl, you got me dripping sweat
You pull me back every time I quit
Yeah
You taste like cigarettes
Your body feels like disrespect
But I'm addicted to it
Yeah, I'm addicted to it, yeah, yeah
I felt her coming and I couldn't escape
I'm in the belly of the beast again
My dirty secret that keeps me awake
Don't stop now, you got me ready to blow
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You taste like cigarettes
I got a problem, think I'm into it
I breathe her in and hold it in my chest
I take a hit and let it burn my lips
(Burn my lips, hey)
I felt her coming and I couldn't escape
I'm in the belly of the beast again
My dirty secret that keeps me awake
Don't stop now, you got me ready to blow
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Blow)
You got me blowing away
I'll do anything
Tell me what to do
Ooh, ooh, ooh (hey)
Twinkle twinkle, where's the star?
Passed out in the back of my car
Blacked out from the night before
How'd we let it get this far?
(Blow)
The lyrics to "Blow" by 王嘉尔 (Jackson Wang) depict a complicated and addictive relationship. The opening lines, "You taste like cigarettes, I hit it every chance I get," suggest a reckless indulgence in something that may not be good for the singer. The taste of cigarettes represents a feeling of rebellion and danger. The singer is drawn to this person, even though they know it may not be the best choice.
The next lines, "Your body feels like disrespect, let you play me like an instrument," show the imbalance of power in this relationship. The singer feels a lack of respect, yet they continue to be manipulated because they are addicted to the person. The repetition of "I'm addicted to it, yeah, yeah" emphasizes their inability to break free from this destructive cycle.
The following lines introduce a sense of inevitability and powerlessness. The singer describes feeling trapped, "I felt her coming and I couldn't escape, I'm in the belly of the beast again." This person is their "dirty secret" that keeps them awake at night. The phrase "don't stop now, you got me ready to blow" implies a sense of anticipation and being on the edge of losing control.
Throughout the song, there is an ongoing theme of addiction and surrendering oneself to the enticing but harmful allure of this person. The chorus conveys a sense of desperation and surrender, as the singer confesses, "I got a problem, think I'm into it, I breathe her in and hold it in my chest."
Ultimately, the lyrics of "Blow" capture the complicated emotions and struggles that can arise in an addictive or toxic relationship. It highlights the addictive nature of the connection, the lack of control, and the internal conflict that arises from being drawn to something that may not be good for oneself.

Twinkle twinkle, where's the star?
Amidst this chaotic mess, where is the guiding light or beacon of hope?
Passed out in the back of my car
I find myself in a state of unconsciousness and vulnerability, with no control over the situation
Blacked out from the night before
The memories and events of the past night are lost and obscured, reflecting the haze of this toxic relationship
How'd we let it get this far?
Both parties involved question how they allowed this destructive relationship to progress to such a detrimental stage
