Blood Creepin
Death Grips Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pass that shit

Hold on man park the car
I have no idea where we are
Think we may have drove too far
Yeah I can see they're right behind us
But there's nothing we can do
We can't get caught slipping get off that shit and just be cool ... ooooh

They’re on to us but don’t look now
They think they’re bout to take us down
Fuck that I’m not going out
At the next corner turn left
Its time to handle this

I know where to go don’t trip
Have no time for that pussy shit
In a minute it’ll all be finished
What you don’t think I speak the truth
You think I could just be sitting here
Listening to Sonic Youth?

Anyway when they try to ride
On you thinking I'm gone
I'll creep up on them from behind
And break them off one by one
And in the time it takes you to blink your eyes
Shit'll already be done
But just in case anything goes wrong
Keep your right hand on your ... oohh

So when they step up out the car
Yeah I know this sounds bizarre
But now I remember where we are
Do what I say and you'll be fine .. oohh

To the left of the off ramp, in the shade
Under the highway, digging graves
Blood creepin while you're sleepin
Steady creepin, blood creepin

Shake the bottle, whats it hold
How many have I already sold
Hope not too much, cuz I feel insane
Need more than one to numb the pain

Slithering through my brain
Thoughts stuck on that train
Off the track and up in flames

Fuck it I’ll swallow these blue ones
Yeah and maybe this big one
And I may as well take a few more with me
Just in case I get some ... oohh
Never know if they're gonna want some
Oh you want one? Yeah no problem
Got that covered tramp, I brought 'em ... oooh

How it creeps up on me so slowly
I don’t notice my eyes rolling
To the back of my head and falling
Shit, somebody's calling
Can't answer the phone
Call them back when I'm 'bout to leave
Can't think straight man I'm so fucking blown... ooohh

So when they step up out the car
Yeah I know this sounds bizarre
But now I remember where we are
Do what I say and you'll be fine .. oohh

To the left of the off ramp, in the shade
Under the highway, digging graves
Blood creepin while you're sleepin
Steady creepin, blood creepin

Down the alleys in the middle of the night
I'm trashed, so high its hard to ride my bike
Might crash, whenever I'm this fucked up
Drunken monkey through the cuts
Who gives a fuck

So when they step up out the car
Yeah I know this sounds bizarre
But now I remember where we are
Do what I say and you'll be fine .. oohh

To the left of the off ramp, in the shade
Under the highway, digging graves




Blood creepin while you're sleepin
Steady creepin, blood creepin

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Death Grips's song "Blood Creepin" tell a story of two people who are being chased by someone or something. The first verse talks about how they're being pursued and how they're trying to stay cool and not get caught. The second verse tells the listener that the two people have a plan, and that they know where to go to avoid getting caught. Towards the end of the song, the lyrics get more disjointed and chaotic, describing the singer's drug use and the feeling of being out of control.


The refrain, "To the left of the off ramp, in the shade, under the highway, digging graves, blood creepin while you're sleepin, steady creepin, blood creepin," is ominous and sets the tone for the song. The lyrics suggest that something dangerous or fatal is about to happen, and that the singer is not in control of the situation. The repetition of the phrase "blood creepin" adds to the sense of foreboding and fear.


The overall mood of the song is dark and unsettling. The lyrics are disjointed and hard to make sense of, adding to the sense that the singer is on the brink of losing control. The music is a mix of electronic and industrial sounds, with pounding drums and heavy bass. The whole effect is intense and overwhelming.


Line by Line Meaning

Pass that shit
Start smoking drugs


Hold on man park the car
Stop the car and pay attention


I have no idea where we are
Lost our way


Think we may have drove too far
Overdriven the distance


Yeah I can see they're right behind us
Being followed by someone


But there's nothing we can do
No options left in front of us to escape from them


We can't get caught slipping get off that shit and just be cool ... ooooh
Stay calm and let's not lose control


They’re on to us but don’t look now
Realizing we're being chased


They think they’re bout to take us down
They are confident to victory


Fuck that I’m not going out
Don't want to lose


At the next corner turn left
Taking a U-turn to the left to escape


Its time to handle this
Time to face the situation


I know where to go don’t trip
I have a plan, don't worry


Have no time for that pussy shit
Not enough time for nonsense


In a minute it’ll all be finished
The situation will end soon


What you don’t think I speak the truth
Why don't you believe me?


You think I could just be sitting here
I am being serious, not joking


Listening to Sonic Youth?
Listening to a band isn't my priority


Anyway when they try to ride
If they chase us down


On you thinking I'm gone
Assuming I'm done for


I'll creep up on them from behind
I have a secret plan of attack


And break them off one by one
I will defeat them individually


And in the time it takes you to blink your eyes
It'll happen before you know it


Shit'll already be done
It'll be over with


But just in case anything goes wrong
Always have a backup plan


Keep your right hand on your ... oohh
Be prepared to use your weapon


So when they step up out the car
When they arrive at our location


Yeah I know this sounds bizarre
It may sound strange, but listen to me


But now I remember where we are
I just remembered our location


Do what I say and you'll be fine .. oohh
Follow my lead and we'll be okay


To the left of the off ramp, in the shade
Our target location is on the left of the exit ramp, in the dark


Under the highway, digging graves
We have to bury or hide something under the highway


Blood creepin while you're sleepin
Danger is approaching you, but you don't know it


Steady creepin, blood creepin
Slowly approaching with danger


Shake the bottle, whats it hold
Checking the contents of the bottle, what's inside?


How many have I already sold
I need to verify how much I sold


Hope not too much, cuz I feel insane
I hope it's not too much, because I'm already feeling crazy


Need more than one to numb the pain
I need more than one drug to feel better


Slithering through my brain
The drug is affecting my thoughts


Thoughts stuck on that train
My mind is stuck on that idea


Off the track and up in flames
The idea is not the right one


Fuck it I’ll swallow these blue ones
I will take more of these pills


Yeah and maybe this big one
Maybe I need a bigger one


And I may as well take a few more with me
I'll take as many as I need


Just in case I get some ... oohh
In case I don't get enough later


Never know if they're gonna want some
They may ask for a drug


Oh you want one? Yeah no problem
Of course, I'll share it with you


Got that covered tramp, I brought 'em ... oooh
Don't worry, I have enough drugs for everyone


How it creeps up on me so slowly
How the effects of drugs gradually take over me


I don’t notice my eyes rolling
My eyes roll back unconsciously


To the back of my head and falling
Closing my eyes slowly


Shit, somebody's calling
Someone is trying to reach me


Can't answer the phone
Can't pick up the phone right now


Call them back when I'm 'bout to leave
I'll call them later when I'm not busy


Can't think straight man I'm so fucking blown... ooohh
My thoughts are incoherent, I've taken too much drugs


Down the alleys in the middle of the night
Moving in the dark


I'm trashed, so high its hard to ride my bike
I'm intoxicated, can barely ride my bike


Might crash, whenever I'm this fucked up
I might have an accident when I feel this fucked up


Drunken monkey through the cuts
My movements are imprecise and lousy


Who gives a fuck
Not caring about the consequences

Really reminded me of the soundtrack in LSD: Dream Emulator.






Damn, that game was a trip, I can't imagine what kind of game a Japanese Drug/Dream Trip mixed with a homeless screaming black man would be.

Not yet, anyways.

I think the only thing funnier than the comment itself is imagining Earl Sweatshirt saying that making the face in your profile pic.
