Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Mars's song "Cats" depict a story of inner-city struggles, survival, and the pursuit of success. The song talks about a young individual referred to as "Lil bro" who manages to turn his life around in just six months, going from a lowly position ("Scat") to a much better one ("Cat"). This transformation is described as remarkable and even crazy. The lyrics also touch on the dangers of being involved in illegal activities, suggesting that if there is a target on one's head, they will be metaphorically "drowned" like the navy.


The song also addresses the importance of loyalty and trust. In order to maintain relationships and receive support, it is implied that one needs to uphold their financial obligations ("send yo payment") and remain silent to the authorities ("writing no fucking statement"). This serves as a reminder of the street code and the consequences that come with betraying one's peers.


The second verse provides some additional context to Lil bro's story. It mentions his motivation to change his circumstances, driven by witnessing his mother's daily struggles. He is determined to ensure that his baby doesn't face the same hardships, promising that his child won't want for anything. The lyrics also allude to the constant danger Lil bro faces and his readiness to defend himself, as he keeps his pistol with him at all times.


Overall, the lyrics of "Cats" convey a narrative of a young individual's rise from difficult circumstances, the challenges they face, and the need to navigate a treacherous environment while remaining loyal and cautious.

Here’s some translation

Like a cat on Mars
My heart doesn't change
Don't believe that, 'cause it's a lie

My daughter fled away at the age of 15
I did at 15 too, without umbrella
In the distance before me, there's a hole

Like a cat on Mars
My heart doesn't change
Don't believe that, 'cause it's a lie

O ye, brave soldiers who protected a single cub
Horns, too, have a life on their own
Ask yourselves if that horn's life changes

My clan has been loving seagulls for generations
I can't prove it but I feel so lonely
Because I am a cat on Mars

Let me get this clear



💖 So a cat finally reached its dreams of going into space finally reaching the moon/Mars pretending to picture the earth in they’re hands

❤️But the earth explodes as crumb watches slowly processing shaking in fear watching pieces of earth where they live float around


♥️ The cat/cuptoast slowly enters the space ship knowing they cannot go back, then tries to calm down by drawing then eating tuna now is full! They decide to jump bounce float around


🖤 six days pass which now is the weekends they float around bounce, eat draw again get full but more in a sad tone.


🪦being lonely and running out of food can cause you to go insane as 12 days pass crumb slowly gets angered and annoyed sad and anxious being alone knowing they can’t do anything and scratches all drawings knowing they ran out of food



⚰️
They quit.
They quit.
They quit.
They quit.





(Suicide)
Please do not give up!

okay sorry this is a long comment but I just love this video so much






























That initial shock at the beginning, going from carefree and childlike to seeing your entire planet instantly wiped out. Slowly walking back in and sitting down, looking at the monitor and seeing the static before trying to block it out as if nothing had happened. Watching them get more frustrated and hopeless when it becomes more and more clear that there is no way out. The changes in brightness and color depending on the mood. All of the little details and motifs, like the the tally marks, the way that the food goes from mostly stocked down to the last remaining can, the recurring static, it's absolutely amazing. The part at 0:26 caught my attention, like the cat considers the option but is still too angry and refuses to give up until the breaking point. Then the part at 0:29 when they look out the window, either considering the option again or trying to comprehend that Earth really did just explode, and then back at the tally marks as they realize that no one is coming for them. The initial reaction, trying to cover it up and ignore it with distractions, slowly wearing down and then getting angry at the truth and scratching through the drawings, and then those last shots that show the empty room- sorry that this is just a really long ramble, but I love all of your art, but I'm absolutely stunned by this video and how much you were able to tell in such a short time!
