Burial (With Yogi/Pusha T/Moody Good/TrollPhace)

Skrillex's track "Burial," featuring Yogi, Pusha T, Moody Good, and TrollPhace, is a powerful anthem of triumph and dominance. The song opens with a declaration of readiness and a call to conquer, setting the stage for a narrative of overcoming obstacles and achieving greatness. Pusha T's verses delve into his journey from humble beginnings to becoming a pioneer in his field. He reflects on the harsh realities of his environment, where survival often meant engaging in illicit activities. The imagery of a gold rush and the phrase "Live fast and die young" encapsulate the high-stakes, fast-paced lifestyle he navigated.

The repeated refrain "I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled" echoes the famous Latin phrase "Veni, vidi, vici," attributed to Julius Caesar. This repetition underscores the relentless drive and success that Pusha T has achieved. The song's title, "Burial," and the line "turned this bitch into a burial" suggest a metaphorical burying of the competition, emphasizing the idea of complete and utter domination. The aggressive tone and confident delivery reinforce the theme of victory and the relentless pursuit of success.

The second verse continues this theme, with Pusha T describing his elevated status and the luxuries that come with it. References to flying on a Concorde and listening to Tom Ford highlight the opulence and success he has attained. The line "The coupe's got no roofs, forever they stay drop" symbolizes freedom and the limitless possibilities that come with his achievements. The song as a whole is a celebration of overcoming adversity, achieving greatness, and leaving a lasting impact on the world.
