Mars
Stereophonic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up
Quit being obnoxious
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up, too fucked up
Blind react to a feature then you
Lose your mind cause you beat yourself blue
Overwhelmed with this creature like crew
Look at me I'm up in the stars
Gold like flow with prison esq bars
Make it look easy like it ain't hard
Feeling kinda breezy it's cold on Mars
Peace at large yet gold is charged
To be in charge and feeling marg-inalized and feeling lies
That stretch the skies and teach the mind
Open up and realize the truth is wrong
So what does that mean
I ain't gotta prove nothing to you come at me
I got a fact sheet it's by my moral compass and the back beat
But a vibe check would sound oh so sweet
He used to like the party now he just riding the vibe
He had a personality everyone could describe
He used to show up roll up pour up throw up that type
He used to be the mother fucker was getting too hype
Too much hype he was getting told to pipe down
Couldn't handle it in the neighborhood or the downtown
Ended up by himself
Only pals Royal Crown and a swimming pool of liquor in which he could only drown
It wasn't all bad if he had what he need he could manage
Thinking if he go out again he could cause some damage
Knocking on his phone open text like an envelope
Invitation to a party that he thought was kinda dope
If he could make this time with a drink his hand
Maybe it could go as planned and he wouldn't end up stranded
No he wouldn't end up stranded
Quit, quit, quit, quit
Quit being obnoxious
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up
Quit being obnoxious
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up, too fucked up
I was itching for a quest so I called up my tribe
They was busy and I'm not one to plead and bribe
Feeling some feelings of others not feeling the vibe
Feel it build in my head I need pills prescribed
Taking shots before the party I'm feeling alright
Rolling up to the club and I'm having a time
Stumbling bumping to people who waiting in line
Got pushed by a man who started to rhyme
Don't be obnoxious toxic, yo ass fucked up
No nonsense problems, yo ass fucked up
Yo pompous conscious, yo ass fucked up
Like a broken faucet, like a box of chocolates
Like a stolen wallet, like a broad that's heartless
Like a broken promise, yo ass fucked up
Yo ass fucked up, that's fucked up
Quit, quit, quit, quit
Quit being obnoxious
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up
Quit being obnoxious
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up
Quit being obnoxious
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up
Quit being obnoxious
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up
Quit being obnoxious
Learn to lose yourself
You're playing with the vibe cause you're too fucked up
You're too fucked up, you're too fucked up
The lyrics to Stereophonic's song "Mars" delve into themes of self-awareness, self-destructive behavior, and the consequences of excessive indulgence. The repetition of the lines "Quit being obnoxious, Learn to lose yourself" along with the refrain "You're too fucked up" highlights the idea of needing to let go of negative traits or habits that may be hindering personal growth. The singer is urged to examine their actions and behavior, particularly in social settings where they may be perceived as disruptive or intoxicated. The use of the phrase "play with the vibe" suggests a lack of sincerity or authenticity in their interactions, stemming from being in an altered state of mind.
The lyrics also touch on the concept of peer pressure and the struggle to fit into a social group while maintaining individuality. The mention of feeling marginalized and overwhelmed by a "creature-like crew" hints at the challenges of finding belonging while staying true to oneself. The imagery of being "up in the stars" and feeling "kinda breezy, cold on Mars" creates a contrast between a sense of detachment and a desire for connection. The reference to gold and prison-like bars suggests a juxtaposition of freedom and confinement, perhaps alluding to internal struggles and external influences.
The verses further explore a narrative of personal transformation and self-reflection. The singer reflects on past behaviors of excessive partying and seeking validation through external means such as substance abuse. The lyrics describe a shift in personality from being the life of the party to feeling isolated and overwhelmed. The repetition of the phrase "too much hype" emphasizes the consequences of seeking validation from external sources and the pressure to conform to societal expectations. The singer grapples with the idea of finding balance and managing their personal struggles without relying on external substances or approval.
Overall, "Mars" conveys a message of introspection, inner conflict, and the journey towards self-acceptance. The repetitive nature of the lyrics underscores the importance of breaking free from self-destructive patterns and finding authenticity in one's actions. The contrast between external perceptions and internal turmoil reflects a struggle for identity and belonging in a world where societal pressures and personal demons intersect. Through a mix of introspective storytelling and vivid imagery, the song invites listeners to reflect on their own struggles with self-worth, societal expectations, and personal growth.

Ultimately found himself alone
Only pals Royal Crown and a swimming pool of liquor in which he could only drown
His only companions were a type of whiskey and excessive alcohol that led to his downfall
It wasn't all bad if he had what he need he could manage
Despite his struggles, he could cope as long as he had the essentials
Thinking if he go out again he could cause some damage
Considering that he could create chaos if he went out once more
Knocking on his phone open text like an envelope
Receiving a text message that he sees as an invitation
Invitation to a party that he thought was kinda dope
An offer to attend an event that he found appealing
If he could make this time with a drink his hand
Hoping that he can successfully attend the party with a drink in hand
Maybe it could go as planned and he wouldn't end up stranded
Considering that things might work out well and he won't be left in a difficult situation

Feeling a strong desire for an adventure, so I contacted my group of friends
They was busy and I'm not one to plead and bribe
They were occupied and I didn't want to beg or offer incentives
Feeling some feelings of others not feeling the vibe
Perceiving that others are not sensing or understanding the energy of the situation
Taking shots before the party I'm feeling alright
Consuming alcohol before the event and feeling fine
Rolling up to the club and I'm having a time
Arriving at the club and enjoying myself
Stumbling bumping to people who waiting in line
Accidentally colliding with and apologizing to people queuing to enter
Got pushed by a man who started to rhyme
Being pushed by a man who began to rap
Don't be obnoxious toxic, yo ass fucked up
Do not display rude behavior and negative energy, you are intoxicated
No nonsense problems, yo ass fucked up
Direct issues and challenges, you are in a problematic state
Yo pompous conscious, yo ass fucked up
Your arrogant awareness, you are inebriated
Like a broken faucet, like a box of chocolates
Comparing your state to a leaking faucet and unpredictable situations
Like a stolen wallet, like a broad that's heartless
Drawing parallels between loss and unfeeling attitudes
Like a broken promise, yo ass fucked up
Similar to a broken commitment, you are in a poor condition
