For the People
Nesian Mystik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Listen in right 'cause my jam be the joint
Press play on the track till it hits ya boiling point
When the crowd no longer sit aside and just simmer
'Cause we up in the spot as the lights grow dimmer
Street anthem sound from your local DJ mix master
Play that shizzle on your speakers don't delay
Equipped to make you bounce with the beat mechanism
We up in the Fale with the vinyl cipher system

Friday night is the scene
Party people everywhere
Check your frequencies
Let me see you getting down onto the dance floor
Nesian's are you with me
Are you with me
Friday night is the scene
Party people everywhere
Check your frequencies
Let the music take control of your mind body and soul
Get up and get ready
All night all night

Everybody want to be trying to be showing individual mooli technique
Every second of the party
M-U-L-L-E-T prolifically lacking in the constant movement your consuming
Initialise them verbal styles to mystify your mind
Demonstrate essential element fundamental rhythms we provide

Essential apparatus
Necessary for these fella's
Broken English is apparent
Upon sense begins to shatter

It be the tropical siva movement for your action
Ain't no excuses like Cube said, "put your back in"

Laxed out atmosphere be getting fatter by the minute the beat filling up the room
Nobody getting timid

Brothers gotta keep there lines tight tonight
'Cause the sisters are looking fly as the place starts to ignite

Friday night is the scene
Party people everywhere
Check your frequencies
Let me see you getting down onto the dance floor
Nesian's are you with me
Are you with me

Friday night is the scene
Party people everywhere
Check your frequencies
Let the music take control of your mind body and soul
Get up and get ready
All night all night

Vinyl distracts focus mental concentration
Instant stutter becomes a hazard to regulation
Not to mention adapt to situation
Materialize upon destination
Stand up get up no more dancing with your eyes
Status uncompromised villager identify

Tonight is the night to let your body unwind
So let loose and eventually let ya mind initialize

Progression of navigation is encapsulated
In that you waited so long

All of ya fantasies become reality when they collide
'Cause you can't get by the fact that tonight is Friday night

Let the music catch you off guard/ be venerable to the beat lady

My style stay cryptic from crossed words out of adverbs
Disturbed from your reverb in case you never heard
When we rock mics we tend to rock right
'Cause when we rock mics we rock the mic, "Right"
Ignite ya light and throw ya hands high
'Cause it's carcken on a Friday when we roll right
Layin' pipe AK taking it worldwide
Say it with me now M double O L I

Friday night is the scene
Party people everywhere
Check your frequencies
Let me see you getting down onto the dance floor
Nesian's are you with me
Are you with me

Friday night is the scene
Party people everywhere
Check your frequencies
Let the music take control of your mind body and soul




Get up and get ready
All night all night

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of the song, "Listen in right 'cause my jam be the joint, press play on the track till it hits ya boiling point", set the tone for the upbeat and enthusiastic party anthem that celebrates a Friday night. The lyrics reflect the excitement of going out to party and dance, and the high energy of the music explicitly encourages the listener to get up and move their body. Nesian Mystik is inviting their audience to join them on the dance floor, exclaiming, "Let me see you getting down onto the dance floor! Nesian's are you with me, are you with me?" The song is a call to action, urging the crowd to let loose, forget their worries, and just have fun.


One interesting note about the song is its blend of languages. Nesian Mystik combines English with Samoan, Tokelauan, and Tuvaluan, creating a unique sound that reflects the band's cultural and ethnic roots. This is also evident in their choice of musical instruments, which fuse traditional Pacific Islander sounds with hip hop and reggae. The lyrics themselves contain several cultural references, highlighting the importance of dance, music, and socializing in Pacific Islander communities.


Another interesting aspect of the song is the way it captures the essence of coastal New Zealand lifestyle. The laid-back attitude, love of music, and fondness for socializing with friends are all prominent themes in Nesian Mystik's music, which reflects the unique culture of urban New Zealand's Pacific Islander communities.


In conclusion, Nesian Mystik's "For the People" is a lively, high-spirited party anthem that compels its listeners to let go of their inhibitions and enjoy the moment. The fusion of Pacific Islander languages and rhythms, combined with English-language hip hop verses, creates a sound that is wholly unique to the band and reflective of their cultural heritage.
