Peak
funk planet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I peak, I can't speak, on my back in the middle of the street
My brain is a chow mien and runnin' round and around like a chain
And I know that you know that sooner or later like a U-F-O
I'm comin' down
I'm comin' down
My brain is a chow mien and runnin' round and around like a chain
And I know that you know that sooner or later like a U-F-O
I'm comin' down
I'm comin' down
Oh I'm comin' now
I'm comin' down down down down down down down
I try, yes I try, I try, I try, I try
Yes I try, I try, I try, I try, I try, I try, I try
I peak, I can't speak, on my back in the middle of the street
My brain is a chow mien and runnin' round and around like a chain
And I know that you know that sooner or later like a U-F-O
I'm comin' down
I'm comin' down
Well, I peak, I can't speak, on my back in the middle of the street
My brain is a chow mien and runnin' round and around like a chain
And I know that you know that sooner or later like a U-F-O
I'm comin' down
I'm comin' down
Oh I'm comin' now
I'm comin' down down down down down down down
The lyrics to Funk Planet's "Peak" describe the experience of being high and unable to speak. The singer finds themselves lying on their back in the middle of the street, feeling like their brain is a tangled mess of chow mein that keeps circling around like a chain. They are aware that this peak won't last forever, and they will eventually come down like a UFO landing. The repetition of the phrase "I'm comin' down" emphasizes the idea of returning to reality and coming back down to earth.
The song's lyrics capture the disorientation and sensory overload that can come with being high. The use of food metaphors like chow mein emphasizes the feeling of being overwhelmed and unable to control one's thoughts or actions. The comparison to a UFO landing also adds to the surreal, otherworldly feel of the experience.
Overall, "Peak" is a vivid and relatable portrayal of the experience of losing control while under the influence.
