God
Bladee & Mechatok Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

We're the ones

Extra light
Turn it up
All the way around

A-A-All the way around (A-A-All the way around)
All the way around (All the way around)

A-A-All the way around (A-A-All the way around)

God is love is my drug
I'm yours, take me home
To you, extra light
Turn it up

(It goes like this)
All the way around (All the way around)
(Like this, like this)
A-A-All the way around (A-A-All the way around)
(That's it, that's it)
A-A-All the way around (A-A-All the way around)
(That's it, that's it)
All the way around (All the way around)
All the way around (All the way around)
A-A-All the way around (A-A-All the way around)
A-A-All the way around (A-A-All the way around)
All the way around (All the way around)

We're the ones
Number one, I'm on top upon the throne
And I wait for the fall
I come down, it's no way around it
In this life, gotta fly
Chase the bliss, oh, I can almost see it
Out of sight but in mind
Keep the gift in another life

(It goes like this) God is love is my drug
(Like this, like this) I'm yours, take me home
(That's it, that's it) To you, extra light
(That's it, that's it) Turn it up

All the way around (All the way around, we're the ones)
A-A-All the way around (A-A-All the way around)
All the way around (All the way around)
A-A-All the way around (A-A-All the way around)

We're the ones
In this life, gotta fly

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "God" by Bladee & Mechatok are somewhat abstract and hard to interpret, but there are a few recurring themes throughout the song. The song appears to explore themes of spirituality, addiction, and the search for transcendence. The lines "God is love is my drug" and "Chase the bliss, oh, I can almost see it" suggest that the singer is seeking a higher power or state of being that they can't quite reach. They turn to drugs or some sort of escapism in an attempt to achieve this transcendence, but ultimately realize that it's not enough. The repeated refrain "All the way around" could represent the singer feeling trapped in a cycle of addiction or unfulfilling behavior.

There is also a sense of defiance in the lyrics. The line "Number one, I'm on top upon the throne / And I wait for the fall" suggests that the singer is trying to assert their power and control over their own life, even in the face of inevitable failings. They are trying to chase a higher purpose, even if they don't fully understand what that looks like.

Overall, "God" is an introspective and somewhat cryptic exploration of the search for meaning and fulfillment in life, and the struggles that come with that search.
