**"Another 304"** by **DJRetsam** is a powerful anthem that delves into the raw and unfiltered realities of modern life and relationships. The track opens with a bold declaration of resilience and self-awareness, capturing the essence of navigating through deception and disappointment. With references to pop culture and a nod to Stanley Kubrick's "Eyes Wide Shut," **DJRetsam** uses vivid imagery and metaphor to express the importance of staying focused and unaffected by the negativity around us. The line "Staying Stevie Wonder to this bullshit" emphasizes the idea of being blind to unnecessary drama, promoting a better life by not giving emotions to everything.

Candidly reflects on personal struggles, the solace found in solitude, and the therapeutic nature of his craft. The lyrics reveal a preference for authentic connections over superficial interactions, highlighting the isolation that often accompanies deep self-awareness. Lines like "I'd rather chill at home in my lonely than chill with people who don't know me. I'd rather imprison my mind lately instead of people who don't phone me. Yeah, you seem chill, but I'm sure you're phony" underscore the reality that most people in life can be fake. **DJRetsam** emphasizes the importance of surrounding oneself with genuine people and acknowledges that sometimes it's better to be alone than with people who don't appreciate us.

**The chorus** is an infectious repetition that emphasizes the cyclical nature of life’s challenges and triumphs. Each "another" signifies a new experience, whether it’s another night, another hit, or another success. This repetition underscores the relentless momentum that **DJRetsam** maintains, highlighting a key message: **most people give up, but he keeps pushing forward no matter what**. The reference to DJ Khaled's iconic phrase, "we the best, get 'em done," is essential because DJ Khaled popularized the line "another one." By incorporating this, **DJRetsam** pays homage and emphasizes the continuous drive to keep going, aligning with his message of perseverance and resilience.

**In the 2 verse**, the theme of resilience continues as **DJRetsam** discusses the importance of staying grounded and focused. He gives a heartfelt shout-out to Lil Loaded, a rapper who tragically took his own life, weaving in the titles of Lil Loaded's three biggest songs—**"Emotional Killer," "Always Win,"** and **"Hard Times."** As a huge fan, **DJRetsam** wanted to show respect and appreciation to this talented young man who struggled deeply. This tribute highlights both a respect for Lil Loaded's work and a shared understanding of the struggles he faced.

**The final verse** ties the song together by celebrating the freedom found in self-expression and emphasizing the often-overlooked importance of appreciating the military. **DJRetsam** calls out the tendency of people to take their freedoms for granted, reminding listeners that many don't realize the privileges they enjoy daily. Inspired by Maren Gaines' idea that "privilege is invisible to those who have it," he stresses that the military's sacrifices are what allow people to live freely, post on Instagram, and enjoy a comfortable life in North America. This perspective is sharpened by his personal connection to a friend in Uganda who cares for nineteen kids without basic necessities, making the contrast even more poignant. **DJRetsam** underscores the need for respect and gratitude towards the military, aiming to resonate deeply with his audience.

The song's title, **"Another 304,"** is a unique choice, referencing a calculator spelling of "ho" and popularized by the Fresh and Fit podcast. **DJRetsam** found it fitting to use this title to wrap up the song’s themes, making it distinctive and resonant.

**"Another 304"** is more than just a song; it’s a narrative of strength, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of one’s purpose.
