Using My Active
Instalok Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Adhesive's down and I've got you stuck
You're standing in my chemicals
Our shadow's twin is catching up
We'll chase you down with our Shurelya's
Keep you close with my Randuin's
Our cooldowns have been blown
But we've got so much more to show
Welcome to the late game
To the late game
Welcome to the late game
To the late game
I'm using my active
Using my active
I'm using my active
Using my active
Got Hourglass we're standing froze
It's your retribution for the throws
We shutdown Zed
He's wearing thin
Twin Shadow's go
Shard of True Ice
Five lockets glow
Sword of Divine
These lyrics are from the chorus of Instalok's song, "Using My Active." The song has strong references to the popular game, League of Legends, and it's about a team that's in the late game and is using their items and cooldowns to their advantage. The first few lines of the chorus talk about the main character's avatar, who's running up to two other characters, Ashe and Lux. Adhesive has been used to slow them down, and the main character has got them stuck in his chemicals, which is most likely a reference to one of the champion abilities.
The main character is in the late game and has grouped up with his teammates to fight off the other team's characters. They've used all their cooldowns, but they still have much more to show. The lyrics welcome the listener to the late game, which is a metaphor for the final stages of a game in which the teams try to deal the finishing blow to the other.
The next verse talks about some of the items the characters are using in the game. Hourglass is a popular item that allows the player to become invulnerable for a short duration, and the team is using it to their advantage. Zed, another character from the game, is being shut down by the team using their items and making him weaker. The song also references some of the other popular items in the game, such as Twin Shadow, Shard of True Ice, and Sword of Divine.
