A: Blow is a more colloquial term used as a verb to say someone messed something up, but only when it's used in its passed tense. For example, if someone failed a class or lost a game, you could say, "You blew it," which holds a similar meaning to saying, "You ruined it." Spoil however, is more commonly used to describe something going bad, such as food spoiling.

A: You're correct, the prepositions are indicating the focus of the action. I think these are really hard for English learners, I don't know of any actual rule, English speakers just use what sounds correct. Sometimes you can use either, for 'pop off' I would say "He really popped off 'at'me.", but 'on' doesn't sound incorrect. But these two are strict, the way you've written them is correct:
"Blow up 'at' me."
"Take it out 'on' me."

"Vent 'on' me." is much better, but "vent 'at' me" is not incorrect.

I hope this helps a bit!

A: As the person above me said, it’s slang for a male ejaculation. In the context of the song lyrics though, what he means by saying he blows his load over the status quo is he’s basically saying “fuck the status quo”.
He’s stating that he doesn’t care about what’s normal or expected of him in a vulgar manner.

Don’t use this phrase to mean that though. It only means this in the context of how the singer is using it. It’s not a normal phrase.

The normal meaning is the ejaculation one.
