The lyrics of De-Phazz's song Better Now convey a sense of confusion and disorientation. The opening lines, "one shot back, don't see what happen, crypt, happen" suggest a state of bewilderment, as though the singer has been blindsided by something unexpected. The next line, "seeds of ecstacy when ecstacy is applied," adds to this sense of ambiguity, as it is unclear whether the "ecstacy" referred to is a drug or a state of mind.
As the song progresses, the lyrics become more surreal, with lines like "eternal, they're no good to me" and "nothing is far too smart for me" seeming almost nonsensical. However, there is a sense of yearning throughout the song, with the singer pleading for something to make sense of their confusion. The lines, "give me my life I'm, today, nothing is uncomplicated," suggest a desire for clarity and simplicity in the midst of chaos.
Despite the seemingly random nature of the lyrics, there is a poetic quality to them that suggests deeper meaning lying just beneath the surface. Lines like "nature is nervous" and "respect just enough" hint at a broader commentary on the human experience, while the repeated refrain of "bullshit it never ceases it never creases" conveys a sense of disillusionment with the world.
