Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got this shit on lock
Holla holla at me if you on my block
I got this shit on lock
I got this shit on lock
Holla holla at me if you on my block
I got your dogs on a collar, balla
Choke chain for their necks, and I don't think they like that
Woof woof, How they howl
Give some chow, they bout to growl
Little dogs will kill you dude, as soon as you let 'em out
Pure bread (pure bread)
Got 'em with the nice coat
Your head (your head)
When I stick with the white gold
Dig deep(dig deep)
Shock collars on their necks
You fuck with 3OH!3, and motherfuckers know they next
Now get yo' drum on (c'mon and getcha drum on)
Getcha getcha drum on (c'mon and getcha drum on)
I got a chokechain for my pitbull lane
I got a shock collar for my rotweiler
Got a, chockchain for my pitbull lane
I got a shock collar for my rotweiler
Got a, Chokechain (ch-ch-chokechain)
I got a shock collar ( sh-sh-shock collar)
I got a choke chain (ch-ch-chokechain)
I got a shock collar (sh-sh-shock collar)
I got my woof from a white teen, he won't bite me
Fuckin' with me, and you'll get bitten most likely
Howlin' at the moon, growling at the lightning
Ugh, this thing I spit is mad frighten
We got the drum hits, tell your kid to get a better etiquette
Before he splits his seed to try to spit a little bit o' rhetoric
You gotta sa-say, g-g-go put it away
Yeah we be runnin' the game, now it's all one in the same
Now get yo' drum on (c'mon and getcha drum on)
Getcha getcha drum on (c'mon and getcha drum on)
I got this shit on lock
I got this shit on lock
Holla holla at me if you on my block
I got this shit on lock

Holla holla at me if you on my block
I got a chokechain for my pitbull lane
I got a shock collar for my rotweiler
Got a, chockchain for my pitbull lane
I got a shock collar for my rotweiler
Got a, Chokechain (ch-ch-chokechain)
I got a shock collar ( sh-sh-shock collar)

The lyrics of Chokechain by 3OH!3 are about the power dynamic that can exist between a human and their pet, specifically dogs. The song uses imagery of controlling dogs with choke chains and shock collars, and the idea that if someone messes with 3OH!3, they'll be next in line to be controlled. There is a sense of ownership and domination in the lyrics, especially with lines like "I got your dogs on a collar, balla" and "Little dogs will kill you dude, as soon as you let 'em out".
At the same time, there is also an undercurrent of danger and unpredictability in the song. The lyrics reference the potential for dogs to turn on their owners or other people, and the idea that the person controlling the dog may not be able to handle its aggression. Lines like "Your head, when I stick with the white gold" and "Howlin' at the moon, growling at the lightning" add to the feeling of danger and chaos.
One interpretation of the song is that it is a commentary on power dynamics in relationships and how they can lead to abuse and control. The use of choke chains and shock collars as imagery can be seen as a metaphor for how people in positions of power can manipulate and control those beneath them. The song's chorus, with the repeated refrain of "I got this shit on lock," reinforces this idea of control and dominance.
