Hammer
Y-Fronts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Falling through a hole
An abyss of unknown
Portal turned to multiverse, the scumlordz on the road
Now he back
And I'm back
And we're taking down these lames
With no fucking names
Lieutenant knocked the chain
General in the back with the fire and the rage
This is far from your average
I ain't holding back
Corporate greed killed America
Made a boat load of racks
Now they spend it like that
He told me he was rich and then he showed me his possessions
It felt like insecurity was fueling this obsession
When that questions asked his new expression is aggression
But he can't take it with him when his soul reaches ascension
He said oppression in his company was his intentions
That liner brings the finer things to him like lustful sessions
He purchases her purses justifying cheating twice a week
I said thats immature I'm looking for way more than booty cheeks
You taking over and I'm minding mine
You taking over and I'm minding mine
You taking over while I'm minding mine
Got your life on the line and you feel it inside
You taking over while we minding ours
We taking over we crushing the bars
Going the stars
Muting the stars
I noticed he was lacking empathy
No concern he just kept burning employees
The Benjamin's his only source of ecstasy
Devilry was set to be his destiny
That's when I felt it taking over me
General went in my chest like surgery
And every time he chimes in on my mind he amplifies the anger
He's like Mr. Hyde I'm Dr Jekyll tryna stop the danger
Clean Pristine look, but we pull up real and sloppy
Got the power to devour corporate carbon copies
Yeah, don't get caught up in the head slammer
Scumlord general and lieutenant sledge hammer
These lyrics tell a story of a protagonist who is falling into an unknown abyss, which represents a feeling of being lost or disconnected from reality. The mention of a multiverse and the "scumlordz on the road" suggest that the singer has encountered some negative influences or distractions that are leading them astray.
The singer expresses determination as they declare their return and their intention to take down those who are insignificant and nameless. The use of the phrase "defeat the hammer bammer" implies a sense of power and dominance over their adversaries. The Lieutenant and General, possibly representing different parts of the singer's personality, join forces to confront their enemies with strength and fury.
The lyrics then shift to critique corporate greed, particularly its impact on America. It suggests that the pursuit of profit has caused significant damage and inequality. The singer describes someone they met who claims to be wealthy, but their obsession with possessions reveals deep-rooted insecurity. This person's unfaithfulness and materialistic behavior are seen as immature and superficial, and the singer desires something more meaningful than just physical appearances.
The song continues with the theme of an individual taking control of their own life and minding their own business while others try to take over. It implies that there is a sense of competition and power struggle happening. The singer mentions their growing anger and the influence of the General, who seems to amplify their aggressive tendencies. Despite their desire to resist this destructive side, the singer struggles to contain it and maintain their Dr. Jekyll persona over Mr. Hyde.
Overall, these lyrics depict a journey of self-discovery, resistance against negative influences, and a critique of materialism and corporate greed. The singer is navigating through challenges and attempting to find a balance between their desire for power and their search for a more genuine, empathetic existence.
