Bullet
Danny Howard Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been thinking 'bout how you all sound the same,
Your style is mad fake like that rep that you claim
Sucka ass fools need to stay inside their lane,
If they don't it's lights out like a bullet to the brain

I've been thinking 'bout how you all sound the same,
Your style is mad fake like that rep that you claim
Sucka ass fools need to stay inside their lane,

If they don't it's lights out like a bullet to the brain

I've been thinking 'bout how you all sound the same,
Your style is mad fake like that rep that you claim
Sucka ass fools need to stay inside their lane,
If they don't it's lights out like a bullet to the brain

I've been thinking 'bout how you all sound the same,
Your style is mad fake like that rep that you claim
Sucka ass fools need to stay inside their lane,
If they don't it's lights out like a bullet to the brain

I've been thinking 'bout how you all sound the same,
Your style is mad fake like that rep that you claim
Sucka ass fools need to stay inside their lane,

Your style is mad fake like that rep that you claim
Sucka ass fools need to stay inside their lane,
If they don't it's lights out like a bullet to the brain

I've been thinking 'bout how you all sound the same,
Your style is mad fake like that rep that you claim
Sucka ass fools need to stay inside their lane,
If they don't it's lights out like a bullet to the brain

I've been thinking 'bout how you all sound the same,
Your style is mad fake like that rep that you claim
Sucka ass fools need to stay inside their lane,

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Danny Howard's song "Bullet" are about the homogenization of music and the lack of originality in many artists' styles. Howard calls out those who claim to have a certain reputation or sound, yet they all seem to blend together into one unoriginal mass. He suggests that those who can't stay in their own lane and strive for originality will eventually be left behind, using the metaphor of a bullet to the brain to illustrate their inevitable demise.

The repetition of the lyrics throughout the song emphasizes the point that Howard is making – the lack of originality is so pervasive that it's worth repeating over and over again. The use of the phrase "sucka ass fools" is both humorous and derogatory, emphasizing Howard's frustration with those who claim to have an original sound but are really just imitating others.

Overall, "Bullet" serves as a critique of the music industry, challenging artists to be true to themselves and pursue originality rather than blending in with the rest.
