Bullet With a Name
Nonpoint Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh!
My disposition is in a position for all to see
Regretless of how it feels
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name
'Cause the cause for the pause you think you see
Is really concentration of the steel
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name

You see everybody's watching and
Passing judgment on
Every little move and decision I make
How can I be an individual
With the weight of the world
And 8 other planets to take?
And with everything happening
Gun shots clappin' and
People are running in every direction
With their hands up prayin' for the drama to end
I got my hand out
Lookin' for some money to spend

The price tag of the things I need
Are getting bigger by the day
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name
Oh, the way I work so hard for things
They just take away from me
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name (with a name)

Oh
I'm working harder than a hundred black mules down in Mexico
No water, no cloud, no cover
From the hotter than hell
No dinner bell, empty oven again
From another bad opinion
I mean
Who doesn't want the cars, money
Fame, attention, bars, honey's
Games, attention, stars
Funny, How we say we don't need it
Then turn around and try to achieve it

The price tag of the things I need
Are getting bigger by the day
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name
Oh, the way I work so hard for things
They just take away from me
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name

And everything that they say about me
And everything that they make me need
Are nothing when they're taking everything away from me
And everyone, trying to make it harder
And everyone saying I would never be
Are nothing but a name, on the bullet I aim
On the bullet that I aim
On the bullet that I aim!
The price tag of the things I need
Are getting bigger by the day
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name
Oh, the way I work so hard for things
They just take away from me
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name
I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name




I got a bullet with a name on it
Bullet with a name

Overall Meaning

"Bullet with a Name" by Nonpoint is a song that talks about the struggles of life and the pressure of society on an individual. The intro features the singer, Elias Soriano, crying out before launching into the first verse. The first verse expresses that the singer's disposition is open to scrutiny by everyone, but there's a steel-like persistence that he has through it all. The chorus reveals that he has "a bullet with a name on it," which is a metaphor for the battles he must confront in life. The next verse goes further into this, showing how the weight of the world makes it difficult for him to be an individual with unique desires, goals, and personality. As he struggles to rise above it all, he must face the bullets of society and push on. Finally, the bridge talks about how the price of things he needs continue to grow each day, and he ends with the repeating chorus.

The price tag of the things I need are getting bigger by the day, I got a bullet with a name on it, bullet with a name
The cost of living continues to rise, and I am willing to use violence to protect what I have and acquire what I need.


Oh, the way I work so hard for things, they just take away from me, I got a bullet with a name on it, bullet with a name (with a name)
Despite my hard work and effort, circumstances and other people always seem to take away from me, and I am ready to use force to fight back.


I'm working harder than a hundred black mules down in Mexico, no water, no cloud, no cover from the hotter than hell
I am exerting myself to the extreme, akin to the work of mules in harsh conditions, without any relief or assistance.


No dinner bell, empty oven again from another bad opinion
I have nothing to rely on or look forward to, as criticisms and negativity constantly pile up against me.


I mean, who doesn't want the cars, money, fame, attention, bars, honey's, games, attention, stars?
These are all symbols of success and status that everyone desires.


Funny, how we say we don't need it, then turn around and try to achieve it
We claim that we don't care about these things, yet we still aim to attain them at all costs.


And everything that they say about me and everything that they make me need are nothing when they're taking everything away from me
The opinions and expectations placed upon me by society mean nothing when my resources and opportunities are constantly being taken away.


And everyone trying to make it harder, and everyone saying I would never be, are nothing but a name on the bullet I aim, on the bullet that I aim, on the bullet that I aim!
The obstacles and naysayers in my path are just targets for the violent means I am willing to use to get what I want.


I got a bullet with a name on it, bullet with a name
Reiterating that the bullet, and the violent solution it represents, is ready and waiting for the right target.


I got a bullet with a name on it, bullet with a name
Repeating the chorus to emphasize the readiness and certainty of the plan to use violent means to protect and acquire resources.


I got a bullet with a name on it, bullet with a name
Repeating once more to drill in the notion of the violent 'solution' being the only clear course of action in the face of adversity.
