創作背景
《I Like America & America Likes Me》中採用了Auto-Tune。主唱馬蒂·希利認為Auto-Tune不僅會調音,還會截斷、壓縮、打斷歌曲中的人聲,和樂器一樣。該曲最初是想致敬“模糊說唱(SoundCloud rap,又稱Mumble rap)”,主唱馬蒂·希利這種聲音就代表著當下的美國,而他幾近嘗試把歌詞也模糊地唱出來。
歌曲歌詞
I'm scared of dying
Is that on fire
Am I a liar
Ooh
I can't be quiet
I'm scared of dying
No gun required ooh
My skin is fire so desired
Is that designer
Is that on fire
Am I a liar
Oh will this help me lay down
My skin is fire it's so desired
No gun required
Oh will this help me lay down
I'm scared of dying it's fine
Oh what's a fiver
Being young in the city
Believe and say something
Would you please listen
Would you please listen
We can see it's missing
When you bleed say so we know
Being young in the city
Believe and say something
Would you please listen

We can see it's missing
When you bleed say so we know
Council being listed

Oh will this help me lay down
Kids don't want rifles they want Supreme
No gun required

What's a fiver
Being young in the city
Believe and say something
Would you please listen

Being young in the city

Don't have to say that

My skin is fire it's so desired
No gun required
Oh will it help me lay down

Being young in in the city
