Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So you know what it is
A little herb for the season
We gon' roll up again
I wanna get high, so blowed tonight
I wanna get high, so blowed tonight so high
So high
Chilling in the backseat everything loud
We walkin' the door and
They reachin' forward, they can’t ignore
Sparkles on the bottles, girls going wild
A night like this won’t end so fast that good
Buckle your seatbelts, enjoy the ride
This is a mission for the missin'
Information’s advised
Ladies, come with me and then take it easy
Here’s a bleezy for you and your friend
I light it up
All I know is that we bout to get blowed
You’da sit knack back
Now baby girl let’s roll
I let my mind go with the whirl
But then blaze up the change up
The game up, raise up
Final leave minor league
Now I’m living major
Sittin' on smoke alarms like the sky pager
Ali and Fraser
Smoke rains appear, the king is here
Power to the people
I wanna get high so blowed
I wanna get high
So blowed, so blowed, so blowed, so blowed
So blowed i wanna get high
So blowed so high
So high high
High
The lyrics to B.o.B's song "So Blowed" depict a desire to unwind and enjoy oneself during the weekend. The repetition of wanting to get high and blown indicates a desire to consume marijuana, suggesting that the singer seeks a carefree and relaxed state of mind. This desire is emphasized with the declaration of wanting to get high and blown tonight, in an almost celebratory manner.
In the following lines, the singer describes the atmosphere they find themselves in. They are chilling in the backseat, surrounded by a loud environment. As they enter a place, it becomes evident that the energy is lively, with sparkles on bottles and girls going wild. The singer implies that the night will not end quickly, emphasizing the enjoyable experience they anticipate.
The next paragraph acknowledges that there is a sense of adventure to this experience. Buckling seat belts and enjoying the ride metaphorically conveys that this is a journey with unknown outcomes. The mission is for those who feel incomplete or missing something, suggesting that the momentary escape of getting high serves as a remedy. The invitation for ladies to come along and take it easy, accompanied by a reference to a bleezy (blunt), implies that the singer wants to share this experience with someone and create a relaxed ambiance. This part of the lyrics ends with the assertion that the singer is ready to elevate their state of mind and rise above their previous limitations.
The final paragraph of the lyrics is filled with metaphors and wordplay. The singer alludes to their previous status in the music industry, stating that they were minor league but have now ascended to living in the major league. The mention of sitting on smoke alarms, like a sky pager, is a metaphor to depict the singer's presence and influence in the industry, possibly suggesting that their music ignites and commands attention. The reference to legendary figures Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier further conveys a sense of power and greatness. The mention of smoke rains heralding the king's arrival may symbolize their dominance and influence in the realm of music or their personal journey of self-discovery and growth. The lyrics conclude with the repetition of wanting to get high and blown, emphasizing the desire to achieve a euphoric and elevated state of mind.
