The lyrics of Mentol Errors' song Irrelevance talk about the singer's disinterest in mainstream media and popular culture. He does not want to watch TV because it is too predictable and tedious. He prefers spending mindful time with himself rather than getting influenced by trivialities. The song criticizes the present-day obsession with superficialities and suggests that there is no relevance in the trash that the media promotes. The artist denounces the glorification of beauty, power, and muscle, which he considers fake and parasitic. The song urges the listener to be authentic and reject the norms that have no bearing on one's individuality.
