Energy
CRMNL Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I break shit just to buy it again
Wasted with my fair weather friends
Crashing in the back of the benz
No need to define it I is what I is

Hi from the 50th floor
Flying take a match to the door
We′re dancing in the eye of the storm

And you wanna know if you've
Met me before?

That′s just my energy
That's just my energy
The monster inside of me
That's just my energy
That′s just my energy
That′s just my energy
That's monster inside of me
That′s just my energy

The cities a jungle
Imma show you my teeth
Lion got a hunger to feed
I'm dying for the hunt for the feast
I want what I want and I need what I need
Stop, but I dont wanna stop til i drop
Tip top of the block and we got
Ten diamonds a pop
Yeah it ain′t no secret I like it a lot
PUBLICIDAD

That's just my energy
That′s just my energy
The monster inside of me
That's just my energy
That's just my energy
That′s just my energy
The monster inside of me
That′s just my energy

I'm so elevated
And i so high I can taste
Crawled out of the basement
Want the champagne
Gonna take it
I′m so elevated
And I so high I can taste
Crawled out of the basement

Want the champagne
Gonna take it

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to CRMNL's song "Energy" tap into the theme of excess and the hunger for more. The first verse talks about how the persona breaks things just to buy them again, and hangs out with fair weather friends who only stick around when things are going well. The second line about crashing in the back of a Benz indicates a life of luxury and the freedom to do as one pleases. The persona says they don't need to define themselves since they are who they are - a person who lives with boundless energy and a thirst for more.

The second verse opens with the persona greeting the listener from the 50th floor, suggesting a life of privilege and elevation. They mention taking a match to the door, indicating a desire to destroy the barriers that stand in their way. Despite the chaos and the storm, the persona dances, indicating their love for excitement and danger. The chorus repeats the line, "that's just my energy," acknowledging that the persona's hunger for more is a part of their nature. The use of the word "monster" to describe the energy inside of them hints that there may be a darker side to the persona's desires.

Overall, the song speaks to the need for excess and the hunger for more in modern society. The persona is unapologetic about their desires and their way of life, but one wonders if the cost of their energy will eventually catch up to them.
