Shinigami
YUNG BUDA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lowkey, camo
Yung, Shinobi no kami
Buda, Shinigami kanemone
Shinobi no kame

Baby, lowkey camo
Yung, Shinobi no kame
Buda, Shinigami kanemone
Shinobi no kami

Lowkey, camo
Yung, Shinobi no kami
Buda, Shinigami kanemone
Shinobi no kami

Baby, lowkey camo
Yung, Shinobi no kami
Buda, Shinigami kanemone
Shinobi no kami

Esperando a hora certa
Corvos, genjutsu
Faz o clima, vamo destruí Konoha
Obrigado chichi
Fazer jutso é uma honra

Que eu tô tipo onix, subi la no kamandi
Dispense atitudes que te fazem sentir podre
Como correr, isso tem sido tenso pra caralho
Gang jumanja aterroriza a noite toda

Quero que me ame
Mas quero que se foda
Quero que seu sangue tinja toda minha roupa
Quero que me ame
Mas quero que se perca
Quero te afogar, quando abrir sua boca

Quero que me ame
Mas quero que se foda
Quero que seu sangue tinja toda minha roupa
Quero izanami
Mas quero liberdade também
Dá meu revólver eu sou daleste, não vem, Buda

Lowkey, camo
Yung, Shinobi no kami
Buda, Shinigami kanemone
Shinobi no kame

Baby, lowkey camo
Yung, Shinobi no kame
Buda, Shinigami kanemone
Shinobi no kami

Lowkey, camo
Yung, Shinobi no kami
Buda, Shinigami kanemone
Shinobi no kami

Baby, lowkey camo
Yung, Shinobi no kami
Buda, Shinigami kanemone
Shinobi no kami

Esperando a hora certa




Corvos, genjutsu
Faz o clima, vamo destruí Konoha

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Shinigami" by YUNG BUDA suggest multiple themes of Japanese culture and the concept of death. The term "Shinigami," for example, refers to a god of death or "death spirit" in Japanese mythology. The artist, along with his companions, seem to channel their inner Shinobis (ninja warriors) with lines such as "Shinobi no kami" (Shinobi god) and "Shinobi no kame" (Shinobi turtle).


The song exudes a sense of darkness, eeriness, and rebellion as they wait for their moment to wreak havoc with "corvos" (crows) and "genjutsu" (illusion techniques). They seem to be anticipating the right time to destroy Konoha, which is a fictional village in the Naruto anime series. The artist pays homage to his heritage with the line "Obrigado chichi" (Thank you, father), and exclaims his preference for honorably dying by "jutso" (a Japanese martial art technique).


Moreover, YUNG BUDA's lyrics express his desire for love, but simultaneously his willingness to commit brutal acts of violence against his significant other. He yearns for their love, but his dark side craves to "afogar" (drown) them and make their blood "tinja" (taint) his clothes. He references "izanami," a Japanese Shinto goddess of creation and death, and pleads for her freedom while showing off his fondness for guns. Overall, "Shinigami" represents an intriguing mix of cultural references, vulnerability, and rebellion found within Japanese subcultures.
