I dont wanna vlog
I dont wanna dream
I dont wanna fall asleep
Oh, these dreams are weird
Karma for the Punk cuz
I must fucking suck
Cuz I just had a dream
I just had a dream
I just had a dream I was walkin down the street and then
Everything apart
Everything a p a r t
Everything apart and I'm eaten by a shark AH!
Dont you fuckin touch my toes!
Oh my god my god my god
NahNahNahNahNah
All my dreams are scary as fuck!
My dreams are scary fucked cuz Im a fuckin punk ANAHNAH!
I dont think I see
Every single thing
I am not a god
And you are not a Deity
Oh but won't you look!?
Wont you read a book?!?
God Loves Punks Hates You!
God Loves Punks hates You!
Its true and wont you see the fear in my eyes
Dont wanna job
A Jog
A Blog
I dont want to job want to vlog
I dont want to dream
Want to fall asleep
Go Johnny
Go!
Ah!
(I cant feel my lips)
God Loves Punks Hates You
God Loves Punks Hates You
YOU!
The lyrics of "God Loves Violence" by B.o.B seem to express the artist's frustration and rejection of societal expectations and norms. The singer starts by rejecting the idea of conforming to a conventional job and instead seeks to live outside of societal expectations. The repetition of "I don't wanna" emphasizes this rebellion against conforming.
The line "Oh, these dreams are weird, Karma for the Punk cuz I must fucking suck" suggests that the singer's dreams are unsettling and perhaps reflect their discontentment or dissatisfaction with themselves. They feel as though they are receiving negative karma due to being seen as a "punk," which could represent their rebellious nature and refusal to conform.
The line "Everything apart and I'm eaten by a shark" can be interpreted metaphorically, representing a feeling of being overwhelmed or devoured by the challenges and dangers of life. The use of expletives throughout the song adds to the emotional intensity and frustration expressed by the singer.
The repeated phrases "God Loves Punks Hates You" and "God Loves Punks hates You" seem to be a contradictory statement, highlighting the singer's feelings of being both loved and hated by a higher power or society itself. This contradiction could reflect their internal struggle and confusion regarding their place in the world. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of rebellion, frustration, and an unwillingness to conform to societal expectations.
