Chunks
Phlake Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cover lies, up in sly stones
In my chameleon heart
You know I, design a lie for
Fifth on the course
Sleepwalking force
I set, you by false
Dollar signs
You noticed I, bloody minds
Run color blind soils (You owe this, Your focus)
Although you need to swallow that chunk
For my, designer comfort, hmm
Keep going on
Reach out for more
Set your mind off (You owe this, Your focus)
Kicking the doors
Skip the remorse
I'm build to destroy (you know this, you know this)
Keep going on
Reach out for more
Jesus is gone (you know this, you know this)
Preach all you want
I feel no remorse
I'm build to destroy (You owe this, Your focus)
(keep going on)
I sip on, like jet tours (keep going on)
I'm fit for, your blood spoors (keep going on)
My go
As we talk, supreme calls
With a fist full of chunks
I reach out for more
Set my mind off
Kicking the doors
Skip the remorse
I'm build to destroy (you know this, you know this)
Keep going on
Reach out for more
Jesus is gone (you know this, you know this)
Preach all you want
I feel no remorse
I'm build to destroy (You owe this, Your focus)
Next time you feel it's a torn
Get to know them, sometimes you need to fall off
Get to know them before the seasons are lost
Don't keep in stings on a part
Toss em' up and make them unsure
The lyrics of Phlake's song "Chunks" seem to explore the theme of deception, self-destruction, and a nihilistic worldview that rejects morals and values. The chorus seems to suggest a sense of constant pushing forward, a relentless pursuit of gratification at the expense of others - "Keep going on, reach out for more, set your mind off, kicking the doors, skip the remorse, I'm built to destroy".
The first two lines of the song, "Lullaby, love in my tones, hmm yeah, cover lies, up in sly stones" suggest a seduction or a luring, entangling the listener into the web of lies that the singer is weaving. The line "In my chameleon heart, you know I design a lie for" hints at the singer's ability to change and adapt depending on the situation.
The lines "Although you need to swallow that chunk, for my designer comfort" suggest a selfish and self-centered character, willing to sacrifice others for their own comfort and benefit. The idea of "designer comfort" suggests a certain luxury, a high-end lifestyle that the character is willing to maintain at any cost.
Overall, the song seems to convey a sense of moral decay, where the singer is willing to deceive and destroy others to maintain their way of life. The chorus is a constant reminder of the character's nihilistic worldview, where "Jesus is gone", and "I feel no remorse".
