Black
Rabbit Junk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pestilent conformity
Holds us back from a greater
Understanding
I am the Gat spawn
The abyssal hero
Lord of the bitch
Hand of Gomorrah
Sodom's prick
Original Gangsta
Gather 'round my covenant
And chant with me
From the LBC to Helsinki
From the open sky to solidary
From orthodoxy unto anarchy
This is the sound that should not be
Street logic and demonology
Foulest union, most unholy
Will blacken everything, but don't you worry
It's just a little bit of ghetto blasphemy
Feeling Old Testament
Breaking forties on the concrete
Mother Mary voodoo dolls
Pissing in
The well of the souls
808 thunder in the heavens
Welcome to
My irreverence
Gather 'round my covenant
And chant with me
From the LBC to Helsinki
From the open sky to solidary
From orthodoxy unto anarchy
This is the sound that should not be
Street logic and demonology
Foulest union, most unholy
Will blacken everything, but don't you worry
It's just a little bit of ghetto blasphemy
From the LBC to Helsinki
From the open sky to solidary
From orthodoxy unto anarchy
This is the sound that should not be
Street logic and demonology
Foulest union, most unholy
Will blacken everything, but don't you worry
It's just a little bit of ghetto blasphemy
From the LBC to Helsinki
From the open sky to solidary
From orthodoxy unto anarchy
This is the sound that should not be
Street logic and demonology
Foulest union, most unholy
Will blacken everything, but don't you worry
It's just a little bit of ghetto blasphemy
In "Black" by Rabbit Junk, the artist is calling for a rejection of conformity and the search for a greater understanding of the world. The singer identifies themselves as the "Gat spawn," an 'abyssal hero' who is willing to lead and sacrifice for their beliefs. Throughout the song, the singer continues to describe themselves as an unorthodox and unholy figure, encouraging others to join them in their rebellion against traditional beliefs and society's expectations. The singer seems to be claiming that their way of life is not perfect, but it's a necessary step to find the truth.
Throughout the song, the singer uses various religious references to illustrate their rebellion. There are mentions of Sodom, Gomorrah, and Mother Mary, all with twisted connotations. The singer seems to take pleasure in blasphemous and provocative behavior, seeing this as a necessary step towards enlightenment, even if it means breaking out of societal norms. In the chorus, the singer invites others to join their 'covenant' and chant with them. They are inviting people to join them in their journey to break free from the mold and explore life on the fringes.
The song is ultimately a call to embrace darkness, as the singer believes that this is the way to find truth and deeper meaning. They are asking people to join them in their rejection of authority, tradition, and conformity to explore the unknown and find their own path.
Line by Line Meaning
Black!
The title, possibly a nod to the darkness of the lyrics and the sound of the song.
Pestilent conformity
There's a pervasive and harmful sameness in society that is holding us back from truly understanding one another and ourselves.
Holds us back from a greater
Understanding
Conformity, whether societal or personal, is limiting and preventing us from gaining a deeper insight into ourselves and the world around us.
I am the Gat spawn
The abyssal hero
The sacrificial
Lord of the bitch
Hand of Gomorrah
Sodom's prick
Original Gangsta
The artist is identifying themselves as something of a rebel and a powerful figure: they are the spawn of a 'gat' (gun), a hero of darkness, a sacrificial figure, the ruler of the underbelly of society, and an original gangster that gives no fucks.
Gather 'round my covenant
And chant with me
The artist is calling for like-minded individuals to come together in some kind of alliance to chant and possibly act as a unified force against the conformity and chaos in the world.

The lyrics here seem to be saying that the singer's message is universal; it reaches from the (Long Beach, Ca) USA to Helsinki, from freedom to imprisonment, from tradition to chaos, and it's a sound that shouldn't exist, but does. The blending of street knowledge and spiritualism is the foulest/ most unholy union, but it's a small thing to worry about.
Feeling Old Testament
Breaking forties on the concrete
Mother Mary voodoo dolls
Pissing in
The well of the souls
808 thunder in the heavens
Welcome to
My irreverence
The singer seems to be mocking/pushing back against religious traditions (Old and New Testament) by disrespecting Mother Mary figures through voodoo dolls and pissing in what is likely a religious site. The 808 bass is often found in hip-hop music is blasted in the 'heavens'. Join the singer in their irreverence towards organized religion.
