About This Track
Bladee and Yung Lean trade verses over a track that moves between boast and paranoia. Bladee opens with the album's refrain, "I'm working on dying", then pivots into material wealth and the suspicion that surrounds it: designer labels, cash, the sense of being watched and hunted. The chorus settles into a mantra of self-mythologising, Bladee positioning himself as royalty in his own world, needing coronation to match the status he claims. Yung Lean's verse stretches the mood into something more lavish and detached, name-checking Nicolas Cage and Ghost Rider, mixing high-end goods with the casual destruction of throwing bottles. Bladee returns tighter and more urgent, stacking references to Drain Gang and its symbolic geography (the Trash Star, the dollhouse, the redrum) until the track becomes less about material fact than about the mythology the collective has built around itself. The repetition of the chorus hammers the point home: this is performance, worship, the elevation of style into something that demands reverence.
"Lordship" is a track by Bladee, from the album Working on Dying, released 28th December 2017. Full lyrics are available below.
