Boom
hed(p.e.) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nobody move, nobody get hurt
Somebody don't know, so that body got burnt
You in the jungle baby, you gonna die
Might as well get fucked, might as well get high
On the real son, I'mma take everything I need, the drugs, the sex, the power
the American dream
I'm a rude, rude boy raised by TV
I laugh at violence, pain and death don't mean shit to me

It's got to be like that
Call me a looser
Yo I can deal with that
You think you all that, till I lay you on your back, with your legs spread
Ha - Boom! How you like that?
How you like that
Can you feel me?

How many motherfuckers, just like me
Grew up just like me, fucked up just like me
Wake up, light up, watching BET
Fucking babies mothers from Jersey to Cali
Don't get mad, get high, go get even, go get your shit back,
then tell that lying ho you leaving
I smoke weed, I drink wine
Take your daughter to my tour bus and fuck her from behind

It's got to be like that
Call me a looser
Yo I can deal with that
You think you all that, till I lay you on your back, with your legs spread
Ha - Boom! How you like that?
How you like that
Can you feel me?

You were never there, when I was down
Like when I needed someone, you were nowhere to be found
I remember the sound of your heartbeat
I remember how you found something good in me
Now I remember how you started fucking with me
You kept fronting on me, always trying to pull something with me
Shit-this ain't no game to me
This shit is life to me, and you ain't living right baby

It's got to be like that
Call me a looser
Yo I can deal with that
You think you all that, till I lay you on your back, with your legs spread
Ha - Boom! How you like that?




How you like that
Can you feel me?

Overall Meaning

The song "Boom" by hed(p.e.) communicates a message about living in a rough world where one's survival is challenged at every turn. The song's opening line, "Nobody move, nobody get hurt," sets the tone for the track's tough, no-nonsense stance. The lyrics paint a bleak picture of the world, where even in the jungle, one's life is in danger. The singer questions the worth of life amidst such circumstances where the struggle for survival is rampant. The hedonistic urges of indulgence in drugs, alcohol, and sex are depicted as an attempt to make sense of the madness, to feel powerful and alive.


The lyrics also speak about breaking free from societal norms and expectations, living life on one's terms, and not apologizing for it. The lines "It's got to be like that, Call me a loser, Yo, I can deal with that," convey a sense of rebellion against the conformist standards that curb one's individuality. The singer takes pride in not letting societal norms dictate their life and finding their own path.


The song's chorus, with the line "Boom! How you like that?" is a bold affirmation of power and strength. It's an unapologetic, rebellious shout-out that challenges authority, and asserts one's own worth.

This is how things are and I am fine with being called a loser. Don't think you're better than me; I'll prove you wrong with my actions.


How many motherfuckers, just like me Grew up just like me, fucked up just like me Wake up, light up, watching BET Fucking babies mothers from Jersey to Cali Don't get mad, get high, go get even, go get your shit back, then tell that lying ho you leaving I smoke weed, I drink wine Take your daughter to my tour bus and fuck her from behind
There are many people like me who grew up in similar circumstances, living a wild lifestyle. Don't get upset; instead, get high and take revenge. I smoke and drink and have relations with women from various locations, even your daughters.


You were never there, when I was down Like when I needed someone, you were nowhere to be found I remember the sound of your heartbeat I remember how you found something good in me Now I remember how you started fucking with me You kept fronting on me, always trying to pull something with me Shit-this ain't no game to me This shit is life to me, and you ain't living right baby
You were never there for me when I needed someone, whereas you used to see good in me. Now you've begun to mess with me, trying to fight me. This is not a game to me, it's my life, and you're not doing things right.
