Melody
MF DOOM & Dirty Sample Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Remember, only you can tell which sounds are
Correct to your ears in your environment
Your equalizer provides you with the means to
Make any and all corrections that you
In your new capacity as
Audio playback engineer
Determine to be the most accurate
Say again, welcome

Jesus, the beat is cut in pieces like pizzas
When he grab the mic deez
Nuts said "please squeeze us"
He told 'em "hold up", after the punchline
Single file rappers with dull
Rhymes and ugly shines in the ring with the
Frizzy bearded grizzly bear
He win the thing with an
Exquisite rare dizzy stare gimme here
I'll show ya'll how to do it right
When he put the mask on he screw it tight
It's stupid light
True story, you can ask Uncle Nu

I didn't know that was you

Dreams the heat beam is like a laser level
Aim it 'til it straighten out
Do your best to graze a devil
Bass and treble peakin', make sure they even
Be fakin' more and he break
Her jaw and teeth in leavin' creepin'
No time for weepin' and grievin'
Deep in breathin'
Keepin' on believin', it don't matter
Honing on the data




In the zone zonin', ownin' microphone chatter
Batter, swing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Melody" by MF DOOM & Dirty Sample are filled with clever wordplay and vivid imagery, showcasing the unique lyrical style of MF DOOM. The song begins with a reminder that everyone's perception of sound is subjective and that we have the power to adjust and fine-tune our listening experience. The lyrics invite the listener to step into the role of an "audio playback engineer" and emphasizes the importance of finding the most accurate and pleasing sound for oneself.


Moving on, the song switches gears and introduces MF DOOM's signature flow. He references Jesus, comparing his rhymes to a pizza being cut into pieces. He playfully interacts with his own lyrics, with "Nuts" asking to be squeezed, and he confidently asserts his lyrical prowess while dismissing other rappers with dull rhymes and flashy appearances. MF DOOM's alter ego, the masked villain, is mentioned as he tightens the mask before going into action.


The second part of the song takes on a more introspective and philosophical tone. "Dreams" is presented as a powerful tool, likened to a laser beam that brings clarity and aims to straighten out negativity. The mention of "gazing a devil" suggests a battle against evil or negative influences. The lyrics emphasize the importance of balanced sound, where bass and treble are even, and condemn those who fake or break others' spirits. The message encourages perseverance and belief in oneself, even in the face of adversity.
