A clever little play on words here.
- Your body is made of cells, which are living organisms.
- Cells can also refer to prison or dungeon cells, which are in fact “made to keep you caged”.
Sadistik poses the idea that you are trapped in your own body. Whether you believe in souls or not, it is a fact that the only thing stopping you from reaching all your dreams are the incapabilities of your physical body.

Here Sadistik creates an image of a person smoking outside in the night-time:
“Ashes bloom” refers to how the tip of a lit cigarette can resemble a flower:
“Black balloons” is a reference to the smoke.
These lines are basically an imagery of a person sitting outside in the dark reflecting, while smoking a cigarette. Reflecting over life with a cigarette is ironically a pretty common thing to do
Black tar is heroin, which is commonly sold in non-inflated balloons, and is black in color (duh). Black balloons floating above him is a sort of tease or encompassing addiction. Something just in reach teasing him by floating about his head. The drug sings him saddest tunes because the high from heroin is a low since the drug is a depressant.

“Black balloons float above me singing saddest tunes” is an obvious reference to singer-songwriter Elliott Smith whom Sadistik has referenced several times and is furthermore a reference to a heroin addiction.

I think he’s smoking weed with a group of people indoors. “Puff puff pass the gloom” suggests this, plus I always took “plaster moon” to mean the ceiling of a room.
