We Are the Danger
Blacklite District Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bright city lights
Another night to die
And I'm feelin' so high
These days are passing by
I question myself why I'm feeling so burned down
I fear the day I throw it away
Any chance to take this all away
Needless to say, we'll see how it turns out
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Light 'em up!
We are the danger
And we're lookin' to score
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Light 'em up!
We are the danger
And now we're lookin' for more
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Heading out for good, quicker than I should
No, I wouldn't change it if I could
Don't say you never would
We've seen how this plays out
We've held it down
Brought it to the ground
In the dust and ashes we've been found
Its in our hands now
Let's hope we can hold out
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Light 'em up!
We are the danger
And we're lookin' to score
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Light 'em up!
We are the danger
And now we're lookin' for more
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
And now we hold it in our hands
You can't say we had no chance
No looking back
We're set to burn out
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Light em up!
We are the danger
And we're lookin' to score
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Light em up!
We are the danger
And now we're lookin' for more
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Light em up!
We are the danger
And we're lookin' to score
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
Light em up!
We are the danger
And now we're lookin' for more
Now we're lookin' for more




Now We're lookin' for more
EVERYBODY GET DOWN!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Blacklite District's song "We Are the Danger" seem to center on living recklessly and dangerously in pursuit of a good time. The singer seems to be describing a city-centric lifestyle where every night is a potential night to die, and yet they feel so alive because of it. Despite feeling a sense of burnout and questioning why they feel this way, they seem to embrace the danger and the potential consequences that come with it. The lyrics are about living for the moment, rather than worrying about what may come next.


The chorus, "We are the danger, and we're lookin' to score," is a kind of mantra for the singer and their lifestyle. They see themselves as outlaws, living outside of societal norms and rules, and they are all about finding the next rush, whatever that may be. As they mention, "Heading out for good, quicker than I should / No, I wouldn't change it if I could," they have no qualms about making dangerous choices quickly and without much forethought.


There is an overarching sense of rebellion and an embrace of living for oneself rather than adhering to others' expectations. With lyrics like "Now we hold it in our hands / You can't say we had no chance / No looking back / We're set to burn out," the singer seems to embrace the possibility of things spiraling out of control. It's an anthem for living fast and dangerously while young.

First things first,I’ma say all the words inside my head
Berkley is my life,and here’s how the things have been,oh ooooh,
Here’s how the things have been,oh ooooh…

Second things second,don’t you tell me what you think that I could be.
I’m the one,at the board,I decide what you will see,oh ooooh
Decide what you will see,oh ooooh…

I have come here,at a young age
Taking my soul into the masses
Sharing my knowledge to the classes
That look at me,took to me,shook to me,letting me
Present my projects,being cool
Accepting my help,me being their tool,
Watching my steps,just like a ghoul,
Creating a student,using..

SCHOOL!
You made me a,you made me a,a student,
A student.
SCHOOL!
You break me down,you build me up,a student,
A student.
Berkley…
Time in Berkley runs extremely quickly…
My life,my love,my drive,they came from-
SCHOOL!
You made me a,you made me a,a student,
A student.

Third things third
Send a letter to the ones up above
All the comments that I’ve heard have turned my spirit to a dove, oh-ooooh
My spirit up above, oh-ooooh

I was lost within the crowd
Now living my rain up,standing out
Participating,singing aloud
Ignoring arch-enemies,letting them drown
But they never did, ever lived, planning and flowing
Inhibited, limited
Till they broke open and rained down
It rained down, like…


SCHOOL!
You made me a,you made me a,a student,
A student.
SCHOOL!
You break me down,you build me up,a student,
A student.
Berkley…
Time in Berkley runs extremely quickly…
My life,my love,my drive,they came from-
SCHOOL!
You made me a,you made me a,a student,
A student.

Last things last
By the grace of the homework and the grades
We're the face of the future,of the future in your veins, oh-ooooh
The future in your veins, oh-ooooh
But they never did, ever lived, planning and flowing
Inhibited, limited
Till they broke open and rained down
It rained down, like…

SCHOOL!
You made me a,you made me a,a student,
A student.
SCHOOL!
You break me down,you build me up,a student,
A student.
Berkley…
Time in Berkley runs extremely quickly…
My life,my love,my drive,they came from-
SCHOOL!
You made me a,you made me a,a student,
A student.
