Target audience
The song
This whole song is about being rebellious and tries to portray how guns are bad .The chorus follows the lyrics of how average people on the streets have one which emphasizes the fact that it is so easy to get one. In the first verse he talks about how the streets are filled these people with violence on their mind. One of the lyrics are "Monkey see Monkey do" connotes that people imitate what they see which is describing the city. Towards the end of the first verse it talks metaphorically about death. "Now you're dropping, calling on god cuz the sky is falling" This is saying that the soul is going towards to god as he has died and assuming from the themes of the song, that person is shot dead.
The second verse starts talking about more action and how things actually happen in life and how people react. "Repetitive psycho shoots his wife, his kids then himself with a rifle" This is probably the most meaningful line as it actually creates a vivid image in your mind and that line itself can portray the message they are trying to show.
Music & Tempo
The soundtrack is hip-hop and you can denote this from the lyrics as it is basically a rap song. The tempo is consistent through out, it goes straight into it right from the beginning and throughout the tempo does not change. The only thing that changes gradually is the meaning behind the lyrics as it gets more aggressive however the actual beat of the song stays the same. Right at the end the volume of the song decreases and it slowly dies out bringing the song to an end.
How I would use the song in a video
From these lyrics you can clearly see that the artist is trying to show a message to if i incorporate this into a video then I would show a narrative to emphasize the point the artist is trying to make.
