Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Is it off?
Is it on have you lost it?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Is it buried in the sand?
Up your arse?
Are you brain dead?
Uh oh it's us again
Yo the same five kids from the HDKN,
And we're on this game like a kid with a brand new PlayStation,
Get to know that we're coming for you
Because I've got more bars that JD Wheatherspoons,
More lines than Camden could do,
More word that Google could search through.
Stop,
Stop right now,
No you don't.
And I thought I told you,
The game is over,
Game is over,
Showed you,
Showed you,
The game is over.
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Is it off?
Is it on have you lost it?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Where's your head?
Is it buried in the sand?
Up your arse?
Are you brain dead?
You can say what you like,
We don't care now,
You can type what you type,
We don't care at all,
Still in your fucking eyeballs,
So where's your head at,
Still in your fucking eardrums,
So where's your head at.
Stop,
Stop right now,
No you don't.
And I thought I told you,
The game is over,
Game is over,
Showed you,
Showed you,
The game is over.
So where you at,
And where's your head,
Your precious indie rock's dead
And I'll fuck up your life like crystal meth,
So now it's on and I'm in the zone,
You fuck up my ears like a shit ringtone.
Stop,
Stop right now,
No you don't,
No you don't.
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Same five kids but a brand new show.
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Same five kids but a brand new show.
It's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Same five kids but a brand new show.
It's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Uh oh it's us again yo,
Same five kids but a brand new show.
Your time is up friend all bad things must come to an end.
Your time has been so fuck you and your precious scene.
The lyrics to Hadouken!'s song Game Over pt2 are a direct challenge to those who are stuck in the past, unable to move forward with the changing times. The repetition of "where's your head?" is a metaphorical question about where people's mindsets are at. Are they stuck in the past? Are they unaware of the changes happening around them? It's a call to action to wake up and pay attention.
The lyrics also take on a confrontational tone, with the use of strong language and imagery, such as "I'll fuck up your life like crystal meth" and "you fuck up my ears like a shit ringtone". The message of the song is that it's time to move on and embrace the new, and Hadouken! is leading the charge.
Overall, the lyrics to Game Over pt2 are a bold statement about the need to evolve and move forward in our thinking and actions, and to not be held back by nostalgia or sentimentality.

We're fully invested and committed to our craft.
Get to know that we're coming for you
We're not afraid to come after and confront our challengers.

Our rhymes are endless and unstoppable like an overflowing bar.
More lines than Camden could do,
Our lyrics are more numerous and complex than any graphic design project.
More word that Google could search through.
We're so articulate that our literary prowess surpasses even the most powerful search engine.
Stop,
Halt and take notice.
Stop right now,
Cease your actions immediately.
No you don't.
You can't keep up with our skills and talent.
And I thought I told you,
I've already given you fair warning.

We've won and defeated our opponents.
Showed you,
Demonstrated and illustrated our superiority.

Your words have no effect on us.

How are you processing and reacting to our impact?
Still in your fucking eardrums,
Our beats and rhymes are still resonating in your mind.
So where's your head at.
How are you handling the aftermath of our artistry?
Your precious indie rock's dead
We've taken over the music industry and left rock in the dust.
And I'll fuck up your life like crystal meth,
We'll disrupt and destroy your life like a dangerous drug addiction.
So now it's on and I'm in the zone,
We're fully focused and confident in our abilities.
You fuck up my ears like a shit ringtone.
Your inferior music is irritating and unpleasant to listen to.
Same five kids but a brand new show.
We may be the same people, but we've evolved and improved our skills.
Your time is up friend all bad things must come to an end.
We've outlasted and outperformed our opponents, and their time is up.
Your time has been so fuck you and your precious scene.
We've dominated and destroyed your culture and art, and we don't care about your opinion or feelings about it.
