Beat It
Defying the Beat: Unveiling the Power Struggle in Pomplamoose's Anthem
Lyrics
They told him don't you ever come around here
Advice given to someone to stay away from a certain place.
Don't wanna see your face, you better disappear
Strong disapproval of the person's presence, urging them to disappear.
The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear
Intense hostility in the onlookers' eyes, and their words are straightforward.
So beat it, just beat it
Encouragement to leave the situation immediately, using the phrase "beat it."
You better run, you better do what you can
Advice to escape and do whatever is possible to avoid trouble.
Don't wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man
Discouragement from violence, rejecting a macho attitude.
You wanna be tough, better do what you can
Suggestion to act tough, but within limits to avoid consequences.
So beat it, but you wanna be bad
Reiteration of the need to "beat it," while acknowledging the desire to rebel.
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
Repeated emphasis on the importance of leaving the situation to avoid defeat.
No one wants to be defeated
-Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
-It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
-Just beat it, beat it
-Just beat it, beat it
-Just beat it, beat it
-Just beat it, beat it
-They're out to get you, better leave while you can
Warning of impending danger, advising a swift departure.
Don't wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man
Desire for maturity and manhood rather than remaining a boy.
You wanna stay alive, better do what you can
Emphasis on the importance of self-preservation.
So beat it, just beat it
Reiteration of the advice to "beat it" in the face of danger.
You have to show them that you're really not scared
Encouragement to demonstrate fearlessness to those threatening.
You're playin' with your life, this ain't no truth or dare
Warning about the serious consequences, contrasting with a game of truth or dare.
They'll kick you, they'll beat you,
Description of potential physical harm and an assertion that it is justified.
They'll tell you it's fair
-So beat it, but you wanna be bad
-Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
Reiteration of the theme of not wanting to be defeated and showcasing strength.
No one wants to be defeated
-Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
-It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
-Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
Final emphasis on the irrelevance of who is right or wrong in the confrontation.
No one wants to be defeated
-Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
-It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
