[Hook]
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop

[Verse 1]
Your crisis is my alarm
Why I'm like, "Shh, stay calm"
You fight shit I ride upon
My knife been drawn
3-6-5 light of dawn
Lit up rock you live under
Ass backwards motherfucker
Features like hot butter
Like your brother's your father
And your sister's your mother
Trend setter maximum
Third planet from the sun
Orbit my lungs
Bulldozin' cul-de-sacs
Ground under over every act
Cut no slack, no slack

[Hook]
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop

[Verse 2]
No chance to throw, I rush the mound
Rage stormin' off the chains
Remind me of rape house slave cock rings
You're played out like talking
Your cadence is sloppy
Can't break me, I got me
You're grave stink, I'm lofty
You're lady like loli
Pop tramp on that jigaboo
Goddamn, I'm so sick of you
I despise that shit
What I would never align me with
Feel free to mime me but don't be saltine
When I call you a biter, bitch

[Hook]
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop

[Outro]
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Pop, pop, pop, pop

Death Grips

Death Grips is an experimental multi-genre group from Sacramento, CA, formed in 2010. Their music and live performances consist of vocals from Stefan “MC Ride” Burnett and production from Zach Hill and Andy Morin. On July 2nd, 2014, the band officially announced their disbanding via a note on their Facebook page. However, on October 21, 2015, they announced they ‘might make some more’ music together, and released a new album, Bottomless Pit in 2016. Their latest album, Year of the Snitch, was released in 2018.

The band’s music has been described as punk rock, hip-hop, noise, industrial, and electronic. Their sound ranges from minimalistic and trunk-rattling heaviness (such as on “No Love”), to rapping about dark subjects over heavily distorted samples (like on “I’ve Seen Footage”). They have also released two entirely instrumental albums, Fashion Week and Interview 2016, which feature abrasive and violent electronic beats and some guitars.

Frontman Stefan Burnett’s violent lyrics draw inspiration from a struggle both against himself and against the world at large, focusing on themes of individualism, paranoia, mental illness, drug use, occultism, and the emotionally degenerative nature of modern society.
