Cloud
Ms. Dynamite & Shy FX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lovers being choked, shove in the last year's snow
No shower in Fall, unread mail and missed calls
Trusting in me is a missed cause
Pull up with my Citroen, beaming, beaming
Track after track, we need him, we need him
Who the fuck keeps the hallway lights on while I'm gone?
Who? Who? Who? Okay, okay
Hot boy on stove steady brewing something moody
If you're looking for something grounded, I can touch the sky with my motive
Hypo, I know it, the clouds are calling
The clouds are calling
In the song "Cloud" by Ms. Dynamite and Shy FX, the lyrics describe a sense of isolation and detachment from the world. The opening lines of "Covered in smoke, when I step up they know" paint a picture of the singer surrounded by mystery or a haze that obscures their true identity. The line "lovers being choked, shoved in the last year's snow" suggests a sense of suffocation and unresolved conflicts in previous relationships.
The following lines "No shower in Fall, unread mail and missed calls" and "Trusting in me is a missed cause" further emphasize a disconnection from the world, with neglected responsibilities and broken trust. The mention of the hallway lights being kept on while the singer is away suggests a sense of unwelcome or intrusion into their space.
However, amid the detachment and isolation, there is a suggestion of resilience and ambition. The line "Pull up with my Citroen, beaming, beaming" portrays the singer confidently arriving on the scene, radiating positivity and energy. The repetition of "Who? Who? Who?" adds to the sense of mystery and intrigue, highlighting the singer's elusiveness.
The latter part of the song introduces a contrasting element of self-assuredness and determination. The lines "Don't touch me, keep it moving" assert boundaries and a desire for independence. The mention of being a "hot boy on stove steady brewing something moody" suggests the singer's creative energy and a willingness to challenge norms.
Ultimately, the chorus "The clouds are calling" can be interpreted as a metaphor for embracing freedom, breaking free from the constraints of society, and pursuing one's dreams.

This is a throwback to my childhood. When garage music was big and reggae influences were popular. It's so refreshing to hear this, thank you Ms Dynamite & Shy FX!

I love the video for this!! I'm not a drum and bass fan but really love the chilled out reggae bits and it is nice how it changes. Really is one of the best music videos I've seen in a while.
