J-Dog told Artist Direct "If you listen to the lyrics, they come from the viewpoint of attacking something, people talking shit or whatever you want to call it." The song uses an instrumental taken from a remix of Puscifer's song The Undertaker, which was also produced by Danny Lohner.
Dove and Grenade
Hollywood Undead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That's when the sky turn black
Divided by all our own means
Divided by lines you cant see
We raise our fist
You know we exist
Your scared of us because we influence your kids
And you pave the way that we walk
You know we got plan held up pointin' at your head
Laying on your back but your better off dead
Got the army would made
With the dove and grenade
Got the pin pulled out its a fuckin' air raid!
We ride like tanks and we bite like snakes
Search and destroy we do whatever it takes
I'm undead
When the shelves hit the floor
Get undead
Lets start a war!
I'm the man and I'm the man
And everybody out there knows
That I'm the baddest I'm the baddest of them all
And your just mad cause
I'm the man and I'm the man and everybody out there knows
That I'm the baddest I'm the baddest of them all
And you just mad and its so sad
The next time you breath you better think of me
And your parents thank god for the mercy of me
And eye for an eye but I don't need to see
Look at these eyes motherfucker I can feel you bleed!
I gotta black in the attic and the bitch is gold
Notta nother word till I'm platinum no
A critics are shit watch a bitch get rolled
I only say bitch when I see a fucka so
Its to late
There's no way its doomsday
These true saints better raise my two face so touche
You gone past your due date do you crave
Scene givin' you a grenade to pay
Down your knees crying for help
And your just gonna be another notch on the belt
I'm undead
And you can only blame yourself get undead
And I will make it rain in hell!
I'm the man and I'm the man
And everybody out there knows
That I'm the baddist I'm the baddist of them all
And you just mad cause
I'm the man and I'm the man and everybody out there knows
That I'm the baddist I'm the baddist of them all
And it you just mad and its so sad
All hail all hail
All hail all hail
All hail undead!
All hail all hail
All hail all hail
All hail undead!
The lyrics of Hollywood Undead's song Dove and Grenade describe a rebellious attitude towards society and authority. The band portrays themselves as a group that does not follow societal norms and is willing to do whatever it takes to make their voice heard. The opening verse expresses their intention to attack from all sides and cause an uproar that will make the sky turn black. They believe they are divided from society by lines that are not visible to the eye. However, they are united in their desire to raise their fists against the powers that be. They claim that they scare those in authority because they influence young people, and they have paved their own way and will not be stopped.
In the chorus, the band members proclaim their undying loyalty to their group, and they assert their belief that they are the most dangerous individuals out there. They claim that the world should fear them, and if they have to go to war, they will not hesitate to do so. In the second verse, the band members denounce critics who have not supported them and those who have passed their due date. They say that they have surpassed their critics and that the critics are worthless to them now. They conclude the song by shouting "All hail undead!" as they proclaim their existence as a rebellion against society's expectations.

on Everywhere I Go
That's a pretty bad description of the line. Better would be " "Beat my meat" is slang for masturbation. The comparison to a butcher suggests a rough and aggressive approach to the act, emphasizing the explicit and rebellious nature of the song's lyrics." furthermore "Punk women like Ashton Kutcher" is a reference to a show he hosted called "Punk'd".
