Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lights in the night make things look bright, yet look so dark
Daylight faded we have waited now we start
I feel over charged, maybe wasted
Get me loving you, I can take it

This is what we live for & tonight is not the one
Poping bottles, pouring drinks for models let it go
Baby just let the champaign flow
Hook
Its my generation, we get it in get get it in
Rocking the nation, we get it in get get it in
On the dance floor, we get it in get get it in

(4x) i wana party, i wana party, wana party
The song "My Generation" by MC Mario Feat Datdude speaks about the party culture among youths in the current generation. The first verse starts by admiring the bright lights during the night that somehow make things appear brighter, whereas at the same time they are very dark. The lyrics go on to express how young people eagerly wait for the night to start, and how they feel overcharged and possibly wasted – possibly a reference to drugs or alcohol - but they still crave love, which could be interpreted in different ways.
The bridge highlights the essence of the generation that the song is talking about. Every weekend, they indulge in wild parties, popping bottles, and pouring drinks for models. The hook - "Its my generation, we get it in get get it in, Rocking the nation, we get it in get get it in, On the dance floor, we get it in get get it in, oh ou o, we get it in oh oh oh" - repeats the message in slightly different, more upbeat ways. The song can be interpreted in different ways, with some perceiving it as a fun melody about how the younger generation partakes in weekend festivities or as a commentary on vices like drugs and alcohol, which young people use as a crutch for love and acceptance.
