M.I.A./Missy
M.I.A./Diplo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stop, Stop
Stop, can feel my heart stop
I'm tired
(I'm tired)
Get me out your a liar
(Your a liar)
Give me the lighter
We're about to get higher
(We're bout to get higher)
Hit up lux , what's he saying?
Tired of the same days replaying
Get me out, took a p3 I'm out
Shut your mouth, I don't wanna hear you now
Look like snoopy
My eyes getting droopy
(I'm droopy, I'm droopy)
This feels like a movie
Who are you
I don't know what your saying





(I don't know what you said)
Everything I heard from you made me braindead

Overall Meaning

In the opening lines of the song, the repeated phrase "Stop, stop" immediately conveys a sense of urgency and desperation. The singer feels overwhelmed and is experiencing a physical reaction, as indicated by "can feel my heart stop," which suggests a state of panic or anxiety. The admission of being "tired" signifies emotional exhaustion, highlighting a struggle with repetitive and monotonous situations. The mention of being taken in by a "liar" implies a sense of betrayal or deceit from someone close, intensifying feelings of frustration and weariness. The request for a "lighter" symbolizes a desire to break free from this heavy weight, hinting at seeking escapism through substances or other modes of temporary reprieve, with "getting higher" suggesting a yearning for elevation above their current emotional state.


As the lyrics progress, the desire to change circumstances becomes more pronounced through phrases such as "Hit up lux, what's he saying?" This reference to Lux could symbolize seeking guidance or advice, perhaps from someone who represents a glamorous or aspirational lifestyle. The dissatisfaction with "the same days replaying" reflects a broader feeling of stagnation or entrapment in an unproductive routine. The urgency to escape, encapsulated in "Get me out, took a p3 I'm out," implies a quick decision to leave or abandon a situation that feels stifling. The phrase "Shut your mouth, I don't wanna hear you now" denotes a strong rejection of the external noise or narrative imposed by others, signifying a desire for autonomy and an aversion to further manipulation or insincerity.


The lyrics also explore themes of identity and self-perception. The metaphor "Look like snoopy" suggests a cartoonish or exaggerated aspect to the singer's current emotional state, perhaps reflecting feelings of absurdity or ridicule in their environment. The line "My eyes getting droopy" further emphasizes fatigue, encapsulating a sense of surrender to this overwhelming experience. When the singer states "This feels like a movie," it conveys a detachment from reality, alluding to life’s dramatizations and the tendency to view one’s life through a cinematic lens. This detachment can signify either a coping mechanism to deal with pain or a recognition that their life has become performative and scripted rather than genuine.


The closing lines of the lyrics delve into a communication breakdown, underscoring the alienation felt by the singer. Phrases like "Who are you" and "I don't know what you're saying" reveal a theme of confusion and disconnect, particularly in relationships where the singer feels misunderstood or unheard. The sentiment of becoming "braindead" from what they've encountered suggests a mental fatigue bordering on numbness, a poignant commentary on how external influences can erode one’s sense of self and clarity. Overall, the song encapsulates a struggle between the desire for authenticity and liberation against the weight of disillusionment with both personal connections and the broader societal narrative.
