Dynamite
Robot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Its like a suicide
Just try to comprehend
The way we always die
Just a little bit more

So if youre going down
Just want to end it all
You want to have some cred
Yeah just a little bit more

Youre death is amplified by the modern tide
Youre not as fast as me when I go down
So in the western frame you die but not the same
The way we always fade
Just a little bit more

So go away with dynamite
Oh what a wonder sight
Leaving the rest behind with alot of gore

So go away with dynamite




Oh what a wonder sight
Just a little bit more

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Robot's song Dynamite are quite dark and poetic. The first verse begins with "It's like a suicide" which sets an ominous tone for the rest of the song. The lyrics then proceed to talk about dying but with a sense of acceptance, almost as if it's a part of life that we can't control. The lines "The way we always die, Just a little bit more" hints at the inevitability of death, but also how each time we approach it, we are closer to our final destination. The second verse talks about wanting to go out with a bang and leaving a lasting impression. The line "You want to have some cred, Yeah just a little bit more" emphasizes the desire for a legacy. The chorus asks listeners to leave this world with dynamite, which is a symbol of destruction but also power.


The bridge of the song talks about death being amplified by the modern world we live in. The line "You're not as fast as me when I go down" could be interpreted as how quickly we can fade away in the world's fast-paced lifestyle. The line "So in the western frame you die but not the same" shows how death is portrayed differently across different cultures. The song ends with the chorus, repeating the message of leaving a lasting impression, even if it's through destructive means.
