The Dark Allure of the 3 AM Gang

Sematary's song "3 AM Gang (feat. TURNABOUT)" delves into the eerie and chaotic world of the titular gang, active during the witching hour. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a nocturnal lifestyle filled with drug use, violence, and a deep sense of nihilism. The repeated chant of "3 AM Gang" emphasizes the group's identity and their commitment to living on the edge, tweaking until the morning and engaging in violent acts symbolized by the wire bat breaking brains.

The song's imagery is steeped in gothic and horror elements, with references to graveyards, haunted mounds, and the King of the Graveyard. These metaphors serve to create a dark, almost supernatural atmosphere, where the gang members are likened to revenants or undead beings. The mention of purple vomit, lean, and Oxycontin highlights the destructive and self-destructive behaviors that define their existence. The lyrics also touch on themes of love and loyalty, albeit in a twisted manner, as the protagonist expresses disdain for groupies and a preference for his wife, while simultaneously indulging in a hedonistic lifestyle.

Culturally, the song reflects a subgenre of rap that embraces horrorcore and dark trap elements, characterized by its grim and often violent themes. Sematary and TURNABOUT's collaboration brings forth a raw and unfiltered portrayal of a subculture that revels in the macabre. The song's defiant tone, with lines like "Fuck the world and everyone in it," underscores a sense of rebellion and disillusionment with societal norms. The gang's nocturnal activities and their disdain for conventional values are a form of escapism, seeking solace in the darkness and the thrill of the night.
