I'm always late
But that's okay
Cuz I look great
You're so cool
Looks like you skip school
I like you
I got some sweet dance moves
I think we're fallin' for this
Our hearts are pumping blood to the kick drum
Hearts are pumping blood to the kick drum
Hearts are pumping
This beat's our Messiah
Hearts are pumping blood

The lyrics to J. Rent's song "Drums" seem to revolve around themes of self-confidence, attraction, and the power of music.
In the first verse, the singer acknowledges their habit of being late but asserts that it doesn't bother them because they still feel and look great. They also express an admiration for someone who appears cool and rebellious, possibly a love interest, mentioning that this person seems like they often skip school. The singer mentions having dance moves and suggests that they are confident enough to show them off.
The chorus emphasizes the importance of the rhythm and beat of the kick drum. The singer describes how their hearts are figuratively pumping blood to the beat, indicating a strong emotional connection to the music and its impact on their physical state. The line "This beat's our Messiah" suggests that the music serves as a lifeline or savior for the singer, providing them with a sense of salvation or purpose. It is a powerful and transformative experience for them.
The second verse begins with a moment of interruption, where one person apologizes for being late and the other responding with acceptance. This interruption highlights the dynamic between the two individuals, possibly reinforcing their connection or showing their ability to adapt and communicate. The line "I think I'm damn cool" indicates that the singer has a growing confidence or self-assuredness, possibly influenced by the presence of the person they are attracted to. They reiterate their belief that they are falling for each other.
The chorus repeats, emphasizing the significance of the kick drum and its ability to move their hearts and bring them together. The repetition suggests a deepening sense of connection and the continuing impact of the music on their emotions and relationship.
The concluding lines of the song, "We ascend tonight, salvation, sunlight returns," suggest a sense of spiritual or transcendental experience that occurs when they are together. The idea of ascending and salvation implies a sense of liberation or freedom, perhaps achieved through their shared experience of music and their mutual attraction. The mention of sunlight returning could symbolize a new beginning or the dawning of a brighter future. Overall, the song suggests that music, particularly the driving force of the kick drum, can create a powerful bond between individuals and evoke intense emotions.
