Bang Ya Head
M.D.S. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
My very own response to my very own Detox
No copy like a Xerox, cocky like a Peacock
Sloppy with a screenshot, I run it like I'm Reebok
Bossin it like Steve Jobs, hauntin like a tear drop
Flauntin it like we're hot, cautioned like career cops
Launching like a spear shot, straight into your ear boss
Now you're stepping down just like fucking King Lear does
Fighting uphill struggles like his own Carrauntoohill
Red or the blue pill, wake up with a new skill
Wipe the negativity like its a fuckin glue spill
Pick yourself up, crank the beats up, drink the beers up
Give your fears up, give a cheers up
Sip a cognac, picture yourself like a Kodak
And never ever ever be your own fuckin throwback
I'm dangerous like Carol fuckin Baskin if you're askin
And I don't give a shit if you know it, I'm not maskin
I'm snappin and snatchin, bashin and slappin
Blastin and bangin, rappin and rantin, rappers I'm hangin
I'm smashin up, all of your, pre-conceived perceptions
Cashin in, on my, new unleashed direction
Stacking up, all my, new released perfection
Rack it up, oh my, aint this shit perplexing
I'm turning up the heat like an australian bushfire
I'm burning up the street no sleep, takin it much higher
Bangin product out like I'm a kingpin in The Wire
While you're on the internet, pretending to be a fighter
Right here to the bitter end, grounded like I'm Easyjet
Trying to put me down like its a final trip to the supervet
Trying to get, in your head, addictive like a cigarette
Trying to catch my vibe but cant cos you got your fingers spread
In the opening lines of "Bang Ya Head," M.D.S. is showcasing his skills and confidence, comparing his ability to make heads bop to a beatbox on street corners. He references Dr. Dre's album "Detox" and asserts his individuality by declaring that he is not a copy but rather unique like a Peacock. The imagery of running things like Reebok and being as influential as Steve Jobs conveys his self-assured attitude.
The lyrics then take a more aggressive turn as M.D.S. talks about overcoming obstacles and challenges, likening his struggles to climbing Carrauntoohill, the highest peak in Ireland. He offers a choice between the red pill and the blue pill, referencing "The Matrix," suggesting a transformative experience that leads to a new skill set and mindset. The instruction to wipe away negativity like a spilled glue emphasizes resilience.
M.D.S. encourages listeners to pick themselves up, embrace positivity, and move forward by cranking up the beats and shedding fears. The imagery of sipping cognac and picturing oneself like a Kodak camera highlights the importance of self-reflection and staying true to one's identity without regressing. The reference to "King Lear" and the rejection of being one's own throwback underscore the artist's refusal to dwell on the past.
The song's intensity grows as M.D.S. asserts his dominance in the rap game, likening himself to the controversial figure Carol Baskin and emphasizing his unapologetic demeanor. The rapid-fire delivery of words conveys a sense of urgency and power, culminating in a call to challenge preconceived notions and embrace a new direction. The analogy of turning up the heat like a bushfire and burning up the streets while others feign strength online adds a layer of confrontation and authenticity to the narrative.
In the final verse, M.D.S. addresses the perseverance required to withstand criticism and maintain one's integrity in the face of challenges. The metaphor of being grounded like Easyjet and the comparison to a final trip to the supervet imply a resilience to external pressures and attempts to undermine confidence. The references to addiction and catching vibes suggest a desire for connection and understanding, even as obstacles like spread fingers hinder meaningful engagement. Overall, "Bang Ya Head" is a powerful declaration of individuality, resilience, and unapologetic self-expression in the world of rap music.
