Rock Strikes Back
A.C.E Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You hit, we hit back harder
Like Huss and Stephen, I am not afraid to be a Martyr
California sun and sky
Slip inside a suit and tie
Chevy rolls up to the house with everybody outside
Gonna get down like we did the day before
50 more people be waitin' at the door
If there's 50 people outside,
We got room for 50 more!
And we're movinn' all smooth and when we get groovin'
We're fresh like salsa and we're fat like juben
You're cranium's cracked from my Shaolin attack
Protect your neck, SUPERTONES strike back!
We want this whole band to be a big love letter
So we play the SKA and it makes you feel better
God's got love for us, so we got love for you
It's your life, so what you wanna do?
So come on put a glide in your stride, and a dip in yo hip
Best back the heck up, 'cause' hip-hop rolls from my lips
I spit when I rap, saliva flies when I sing
God gives me gifts, just look at my ring
Look less at me and look more to Christ
His grace has saved me and His grace will suffice us
So I jump for Jesus, it's Jesus who frees us
Let's get dumb like Beavis, I don't care who sees us
When we hop to hip-hop John Bell gets ill props
You know he can rock socks
Give out love from his soapbox
With hip-hop nonstop, hippidie, hippidie, hop
First I can rock them socks, then I can knock your block
You can't stop this, you can't clock this
You can't dis this, so please don't miss this
A van and a roadmap, keep my life in my bakcpack
Comin' through your town, SUPERTONES strike back
The opening lyrics of "Rock Strikes Back" by A.C.E reference the famous "Star Wars" character Princess Leia and her father, Darth Vader. "Just like Leia's Father, you hit, we hit back harder" suggests that the band is ready to fight back against anyone who tries to attack them. The next line, "Like Huss and Stephen, I am not afraid to be a Martyr," could be a reference to Huss and Stephen, who were Christian martyrs in the medieval period, indicating the band's willingness to stand up for what they believe in, even at great personal risk.
The song then shifts to a more joyful tone with "California sun and sky, Slip inside a suit and tie, Chevy rolls up to the house with everybody outside." The scene is set for a party where everyone is welcome, and there's a sense of camaraderie and togetherness that permeates the rest of the song. The lyrics "Team against team, let's even the score, if there's 50 people outside, we got room for 50 more!" suggest that the partygoers are ready to take on anyone who tries to disrupt their fun.
The rest of the song encourages listeners to let loose and have some fun. The SKA music they play is meant to make people feel good, and the band emphasizes the importance of love and kindness through their words. Finally, the lyrics encourage individuals to focus on Christ, who can free them and provide grace in their lives.
