BROCKHAMPTON - DISTRICT Lyrics






I'm Sammy-jo, and my favorite colors are black and red

Let me find my way out of this bitch
Find myself high in the distance
Find me up, lying in this ditch
With a wrist and some diamonds a-mixin'
If I can't find time to get my heart out
Would you stomp 'em out when we slow the world out
Would you hold it down for me when my heart pound
Ain't no telling, no telling so call the coroner
Let me find my way out of this bitch
Find myself high in the distance
Find me up, lying in this ditch
With a wrist and some diamonds a-mixin'
If I can't find time to get my heart out
Would you stomp 'em out when we slow the world out
Would you hold it down for me when my heart pound
Ain't no telling, no telling so call the coroner

Aye, I'ma just bounce with that
In fact I bought a whole damn house with that
Aye, hand me where the ounces at
Tell me where the damn these ounces at
Aye, tell me where the ounces at, tell me where the ounces, ounces at
Aye, tell me where the ounces at, tell me where the ounces, ounces at

It's getting hot, you best just
(Woo! Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down, simmer down)
The effects can't touch this
(Woo! Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down, simmer down)
Stepped up, step down, bitch
(Woo! Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down, simmer down)
Wait, wait, wait

I'm alive, I'm alive, the bags in my ride, I
I ain't ever been the one that's scared of you
Baby, you can come and get it
I'm alive, I'm alive, the bags in my ride, I
Baby, when the karma gets you
Maybe you can run away with us

In my bag in the vault, moving on, move along
Damn I fall, move too fast, life is skidding to a halt
Got back on the road, and made it to the start
Disregard me, emotional discharge
Can't forget the mission, put it to my heart
I ain't playing games, but you can play a part
Standing up apart behind my battle scars

Money walk and money talk, but money no make comfortable
Big ass house and big ass car don't add up when you die alone
I want white knights like five lights for some little chromes
I want bliss, no strife
Rewind, don't slice around my aura with the better lies
I want a better life, bend around the corner
One deep, eyes shut when they know the place
But you don't know me, I don't correlate
Straight from manipulation wouldn't wanna infiltrate my brothers
Still wanna get me high, eyes low off that methadone
Always throwing curve, like a reaper sight
Gnawing on my wood like a termite, entering my world like a parasite (parasite, parasite)

Praise God, hallelujah! I'm still depressed
At war with my conscience, paranoid, can't find that shit
Woo, praise God, hallelujah! I'm still depressed
At war with my conscience, paranoid, I can't

Let me find my way out of this bitch
I'm Sammy-jo, and my favorite colors are black and red
With a wrist and some diamonds a-mixin'
If I can't find time to get my heart out
Would you stomp 'em out when we slow the word down
Would you hold it down for me when my heart pound
Ain't no telling, no telling so call the coroner

Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots and you
Light it up better dodge the cops
And I'll never get sick of playing with your locks
I- I- miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots, I- I-
Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots
That's all I got for you
And I'll never get sick of playing with your locks I- I-
That's all I got for you
Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots and you
That's all I got for you
Miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots, I- I-
That's all I got for you
Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots
That's all I got for you
And I'll never get sick of playing with your locks
I- I- miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots, I- I-
That's all I got for you

    (Parasite, parasite, parasite, parasite)

    [Verse 6: Joba, Kevin Abstract]
    Praise God, hallelujah! I'm still depressed (Damn, damn)
    At war with my conscience, paranoid, can't find that shit
    Woo, praise God, hallelujah! I'm still depressed (Damn, damn)
    At war with my conscience, paranoid, I can't—

    [Breakdown: Kevin Abstract]
    Let me find my way out of this bitch
    "I'm Sammy Jo, and my favorite colors are, um, black and red." (Damn)
    (Uh) With a wrist and some diamonds a-mixin'
    (Ooh da-aa, da, da, da, da)
    If I can't find the time to get my heart out (Uh)
    Would you stomp 'em out when we slow the world down? (Damn)
    Would you hold it down for me when my heart pound? (Uh)
    Ain't no telling, no telling, so call the coroner

    [Outro: bearface, Kevin Abstract]
    Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots and you
    Light it up, better dodge the cops
    And I'll never get sick of playing with your locks
    I, I miss you lots, I, I miss you lots, I, I
    Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots
    That's all I got for you
    And I'll never get sick of playing with your locks, I, I
    That's all I got for you
    Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots and you
    That's all I got for you
    Miss you lots, I, I miss you lots, I, I
    That's all I got for you
    Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots

    Bruh 2:30 till the end is so damn euphoric

  51. T.... P....

    Who is Sammy jo though?

    T.... P....

    She's a character from a US soap opera called Dynasty. She's very obsessed with material wealth, because she comes from a poorer background than some of the other cast. There's a few story lines where she gets quite a lot of money out of playing people. I guess that can be contrasted with her voice clip here where she says she likes black and red, colours often associated with workers movements or political ideologies like anarcho-communism. So right from the get go the song brings up the idea of a conflict between wanting material wealth and being politically motivated against a society which views such wealth as important.
    I think the rest of the song does pretty well at continuing this theme, Matt's verse is very obvious about it when he says money and cars and houses mean nothing when you die. And I reckon Joba's verse is about being depressed in a world which no longer has any real meaning; he brings up religion only to say 'it doesn't really matter' basically. This is not surprising in a world which has replaced the importance on human experience with the fetishisation of objects and images. We longer seek experiences directly, but focus on the image of having such experiences. The objects associated with that experience, or the social capital we gain from posting those experiences to social media. I think Joba channels Focault and Nietzsche in this verse, touching on how traditional ways of finding meaning have been replaced by an emptiness, a simulation of what is real.
    To bring that back around to Sammy Jo, Jo is not real. She is an image of someone real, a simulation of reality. She is fictional. By bringing her up, it becomes clear that this is a song about the emptiness of modern life, of a life that is nothing more than a constant race to acquire more stuff and more social capital.

    Lyrics:
    I'm Sammy-Jo, and my favorite colors are black and red

    Let me find my way out of this bitch
    Find myself high in the distance
    Find me up, lying in this ditch
    With a wrist and some diamonds a-mixin'
    If I can't find the time to get my heart out
    Would you stomp 'em out when we slow the world down
    Would you hold it down for me when my heart pound
    Ain't no telling, no telling so call the coroner
    Let me find my way out of this bitch
    Find myself high in the distance
    Find me up, lying in this ditch
    With a wrist and some diamonds a-mixin'
    If I can't find the time to get my heart out
    Would you stomp 'em out when we slow the world down
    Would you hold it down for me when my heart pound
    Ain't no telling, no telling so call the coroner

    Aye, I'ma just bounce with that
    In fact I bought a whole damn house with that
    Aye, hand me where the ounces at
    Tell me where the damn these ounces at
    Aye, tell me where the ounces at
    Tell me where the ounces, ounces at
    Aye, tell me where the ounces at
    Tell me where the ounces, ounces at

    It's getting hot, you best just—
    (Woo! Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down, simmer down)
    The effects can't touch this
    (Woo! Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down, simmer down)
    Stepped up, step down, bitch
    (Woo! Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down, simmer down)
    Wait, wait, wait

    I'm alive, I'm alive, the bags in my ride, I
    I ain't ever been the one that's scared of you
    Baby, you can come and get it
    I'm alive, I'm alive, the bags in my ride, I
    Baby, when the karma gets you
    Maybe you can run away with us

    In my bag in the vault, moving on, move along
    Damn I fall, move too fast, life is skidding to a halt
    Got back on the road, and made it to the start
    Disregard me, emotional discharge
    Can't forget the mission, put it to my heart
    I ain't playing games, but you can play a part
    Standing up apart behind my battle scars

    Money walk and money talk, but money no make comfortable
    Big ass house and big ass car don't add up when you die alone
    I want white knights like five lights for some little chromes
    I want bliss, no strife
    Rewind, don't slice around my aura with the better lies
    I want a better life, bend around the corner
    One deep, eyes shut when they know the place
    But you don't know me, I don't correlate
    Straight from manipulation wouldn't wanna infiltrate my brothers
    Still wanna get me high, eyes low off that methadone
    Always throwing curve, like a reaper sight
    Gnawing on my wood like a termite
    Entering my world like a parasite
    (Parasite, parasite, parasite, parasite)

    Praise God, hallelujah! I'm still depressed
    At war with my conscience, paranoid, can't find that shit
    Woo, praise God, hallelujah! I'm still depressed
    At war with my conscience, paranoid, I can't—

    Let me find my way out of this bitch
    I'm Sammy-Jo, and my favorite colors are black and red
    With a wrist and some diamonds a-mixin'
    If I can't find time to get my heart out
    Would you stomp 'em out when we slow the word down
    Would you hold it down for me when my heart pound
    Ain't no telling, no telling so call the coroner

    Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots and you
    Light it up better dodge the cops
    And I'll never get sick of playing with your locks
    I- I- miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots, I- I-
    Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots
    And I'll never get sick of playing with your locks I- I-
    Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots and you
    Miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots, I- I-
    Sittin' on your porch, across parking lots
    And I'll never get sick of playing with your locks
    I- I- miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots
    I- I- miss you lots, I- I- miss you lots, I- I-
