Dope
Nasty Crue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All what everybody says is just another clue.
You always wonder how it is like to be
getting wasted all night long with chicks all around me.
I want some more,
I need my dope,
lit up just one more time
Every fucking night looking for some dust,
every fucking day floating for some cash.
"You're a junky man, that's who you are!",
but I don't care, I just want my stuff back.
Who cares what's good me?
Who am I supposed to be?
Who cares what's good me?
Who am I supposed to be?
I want some more,
I need my dope,
lit up just one more time
and I hope it will be fine.
Solo...
I want some more,
I need my dope,
lit up just one more time
and I hope it will be fine.
The lyrics to Nasty Crue's song "Dope" speak to the addiction to drugs, specifically cocaine, and the desperation to get one's hands on it. The opening lines set the scene, with the singer declaring that they are done with all the drama, and now they want to focus on their own desires. The song is about addiction and the pressure to fit in, despite the harm that is done in the process.
The second verse highlights the struggle of finding money to buy the drug along with society's views on drug addiction. The singer does not care about that; all they care about is their next fix. The chorus is repeated a few times, with the singer expressing their desperation for the drug and the hope that it will be enough.
The song is a sad commentary on the effects of addiction, and how it can take over someone's life, causing them to do anything for their next fix. It also shows how society tends to portray and stigmatize drug addiction. The solo in the middle of the song highlights the pain and anguish that comes with the addiction.
