Journey
A-Wax Woodie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[A-Wax]
Yo feel my flury
Feel my fury
Middle finger to the world
Till I'm burried
Heaven or hell
Choose one or be a treat
By seven I'm in a spell, bumpin' a beat
Somethin' comes from deep within me
Talkin' sickly, stictly, talkin' to me
So possibly I could be goin' insane
Snortin' this cane
Stressed out like a muthafucka flowin' his pain
Misunderstood by most
Few people considered close
It's a very thin line between foes and folks
Slide up [?] and spokes, bangin' the curb
Stumblin' out the driver side tamin' the Burg
Mumblin' words, ready to reach
Dawg I'm deadly wit heat
Hold it steady I'll be
A fuckin' nut, patna what
Run up and get touched
Sent him on a journey stretched out on a gurney
I'm turnin' more savage as the days go by
Think I'm headed for the flames
Dawg, I ain't gon' lie
It's a cold world full a sin
What the fuck, what the fuck
What the fuck are you supposed to do
They after you and they want yo soul
But it ain't nothin' you can do
Wit that chrome 44
All the love in the world couldn't kill this rage
And I simply love nothin' but this kill I blaze

[Chorus: Woodie (A-Wax)]
Let me take you on a journey (journey)
Heaven to the depths of hell burning (heaven to the depths of hell)
Westcoast to eastcoast where we makin' earnings (westcoast, eastcoast)
America, we ain't scared of ya we darin' ya (America) (darin' ya)
Better be prepared when you hit the Bay Area (better be prepared) (Bay Area)
Journey, heaven to the depths of hell burning (heaven to the depths of hell)
Westcoast to eastcoast where we makin' earnings (westcoast, eastcoast)
America, we ain't scared of ya we darin' ya (America) (we darin' ya)
Better be prepared when you hit the Bay Area (better be prepared) (Bay Area)

[Woodie]
That's the point ya existence
I could feel these haters in a distance
Plottin', schemin', dreamin' that they can get wit this
Witness through the eyes of a survivor
From these battlefields in the streets
I was born a fighter
And unlike many others
I've been through this shit
I've held a homie's hand
Till he died and lost grip
Homie rip, rest in peace
Things we used to say but fuck that!
That ain't enough I'm gonna ride to my grave
Think I'm gonna pay for the actions that you make
I'm way beyond the point of wonder why I'm [?] trait
This goes to all my enemies
Big or small, your up in the fault
I got nothin' to loose
I die or win it all
Look my mind is like a brick wall
Hard to penetrate
This stuborn muthafucka that I am is ready to demonstrate
You tend to fake
Sucka you'll be the first to go
'cause I'm a lay it down, right now
Woodie let ya know





[Chorus] x 2
(pause between each chorus)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Journey" by A-Wax Woodie describe the ups and downs of life and the journey we all undertake in discovering purpose and meaning. The artist speaks of the struggles and hardships that he faces on a daily basis, his inner demons, and his battles with addiction. He talks about his run-ins with law enforcement, enemies and friends, and how the thin line between foes and fellows can be a difficult one to navigate. The chorus of the song refers to a journey to heaven or to hell, and the journey from the West coast to the East coast where we all make our earnings, and America where he is not scared of anyone and dares for them to come to the Bay Area. This chorus can be interpreted as a metaphor for the journey of life where one must navigate all the ups and downs, the good and evil, the joy and despair.


Throughout the song, the lyrics convey a sense of anger, frustration, and an unmistakable feeling of being misunderstood. The performer is battling himself and the world at large, and as the days go by, he seems to turn more and more savage. He talks of his love for violence and how that love is all-consuming. As the song goes on, it becomes clear that the artist is searching for something, something that he has not yet found. Perhaps it's a sense of purpose or some deeper meaning, but until he finds it, he seems to be in a constant battle with himself and the world around him.


In summary, "Journey" is a song that speaks to the complexities of the human experience. It is a song about the struggles and hardships that we all face at some point in our lives, and how we can often feel misunderstood and consumed by our own demons. The lyrics convey a sense of anger and frustration, but also a longing for something more significant, a higher purpose, or a deeper meaning.
