Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha
You came through and stepped on my Nike's
Fucked up and got blood on my white tee
You came through and stepped on my Nike's
Fucked up and got blood on my white tee
Now you fucked up and I'm bringing out the ancient lore
Now you fucked up
I asked you nicely
Now I'm serving Belladonna in your iced tea
Now you fucked up
There's no going back
Now you fucked up
There's no going back
Step to the plate and I'm knocking off your fucking head
Stuffing your poppet with valerian
Candles everywhere and I'm selling your soul
Karma's chasing you everywhere you go
I just don't like you
I just don't like you
I really don't like you
I just don't fucking like you
I just don't fucking like you
I just don't fucking like you
The lyrics of DK-Zero's song "Slave Like You" contain several pieces of imagery and alchemy. The opening lines of the song are repeated three times and sound like a taunt or a mocking laughter. Then, the narrative shifts to a confrontation between the singer and someone who has wronged them - in this case, stepping on their Nike shoes and staining their white t-shirt with blood. This violent and disrespectful act sets off a chain of retaliation and retribution, as the singer uses "ancient lore" and "Belladonna" (a poisonous plant) to punish their offender.
The language in the song becomes increasingly menacing and eerie, as the lyrics refer to "knocking on a devil's door," "stuffing your poppet with valerian," and "selling your soul." These references allude to witchcraft, voodoo, and dark magic, suggesting that the singer is using supernatural means to enact their revenge. The imagery of candles and karma add to the mystical undertones of the song, as the consequences of the offender's actions are said to follow them wherever they go.
Overall, the lyrics of "Slave Like You" paint a portrait of someone who has been pushed too far and is now using extreme measures to get back at their antagonist. The song uses vivid and eerie imagery to create a sense of unease and danger, building up to a climax of violent retribution.
