The lyrics to Masahiko Togashi & J.J.Spirits's song "Action" are speaking to the realities of living in a world full of people who do not understand the struggles that come with being a person of color. The song proclaims the idea of Affirmative Action as necessary to empower those who have been oppressed and undervalued in society. The lyrics also touch on themes of power and control, with nods to organized crime syndicates and drug trafficking. The song portrays a group of people banding together in the fight for survival and success, willing to do whatever it takes to secure their place in a world that has not been kind to them.
The powerful imagery and metaphorical language used throughout the song highlight the gritty realism of life in a world where power and success are not easily obtained for some people. The references to famous mobsters and criminal activities further add to the tone of danger and risk-taking, which is especially significant to the marginalized communities who often do not have legal means of achieving success. The repeated refrain of "The Firm baby" at the end of the song emphasizes the idea that despite all the difficulties, the group stands strong and united in their quest for a better life.
