Battle Of 2001
DJ MUGGS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's the first line of defence, imminence combat
As I look up into the cold black sky
I see the birds of destruction fly by
Convey the code red and begin arming all nuclear warheads
(alert all civilians, there's no time to waste)
Embrace all the data within the home base
The virus is spreading at a maximum pace
(commander, the enemy has begun to infiltrate!)
Send the word and spread it (let's get the f**k outta here!)
Thru all the southern states
Activate self-destruct, elimination is imminent
Stabilise your positions
The spirit of God is infinite
Women and children take shelter
The enemy is upon us
All personnel, man your battle stations
Code red! I repeat, code red!
We are bein over ran by hostile forces
Need assistance!

The lyrics of "Battle Of 2001" by DJ Muggs describe a military scenario where the singer is the commander in charge of defending the country from a hostile invasion. The song opens with the call to arms to bring in the soldiers and prepare for an imminent attack. The singer then gazes into the night sky and sees what he describes as the birds of destruction - which could either represent aircraft dropping bombs, or missiles as seen from a distance.
As the song progresses, it becomes more urgent, the call to alert all civilians and arm nuclear warheads becomes more imperative, all while ensuring that data is collected from the home base to aid in the defence strategy. The enemy is perceived as a virus, spreading fast and destroying everything in its path, including humans. It becomes clear that the enemy is infiltrating the country and taking over, and the singer who is unable to handle the situation alone, pleads for assistance from all southern states.
Towards the end of the song, chaos seems to have taken over, with the singer calling for self-destruction as the only solution. Women and children are told to find shelter while all personnel man their stations, the enemy is upon them and the only hope is for receivers to pick up the transmission and help save the day. In essence, the lyrics of "Battle of 2001" describe a dystopian world where war has broken out, and humanity is on the brink of extinction.
