AD Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Har en eight ball, sikta på en ni**er og den traff
De ga han 9 år den dommeren var for kjapp
Min broder var for risky men rotter fikk han tatt
Ingen snakes i min sirkel når vi spiser rundt et bord
Det var null bevis, askar fant ikke et spor.
Du tysta på en bror også kalle deg for bror
Fuck hva dem sier og fuck hva dem tror fuck
Ikke si et ord for du var ikke der selv
Lukter grisene fra avstand- so I can tell
Står mitt i centrum to distrubute and sell
Hotspot ble for hot måtte trekke oss litt ut
Du kan ta mitt liv om jeg snakker til en snut
De går aldri lei når de setter meg på loop
Dotsa sa de fløy de putta 0,5 i en zoot
Ingen er som oss, vi viste dem alt vi kan
Kalde tider i stasjonen,mørke dager med min bram.
Det gikk alt for fort det endte med cadaan
Om vi ser mange griser vi sier ma salam
Ubetinget xabsi og de fikk en fuckings straff
Har en eight ball, sikta på en ni**er og den traff
De ga han 9 år den dommeren var for kjapp
Min broder var for risky men rotter fikk han tatt
Ingen snakes i min sirkel når vi spiser rundt et bord
Det var null bevis, askar fant ikke et spor.
Du tysta på en bror også kalle deg for bror
Fuck hva dem sier og fuck hva dem tror fuck
Har på meg kvalitet så ingen dots klager
Du ser oss aldri snakke, vi forlater deg med skader
sirenen i mitt hodet når vi catcha flere saker
Jeg er ingen baker men supplier deg med kaker
Hvor enn jeg går de skal hate på en bror
Har på denne maska men jeg repper hvor jeg bor
Kom til ville vesten, det ekke som du tror
Blod på min genser måtte vaske det med klor
Ubetinget xabsi og de fikk en fuckings straff
Har en eight ball, sikta på en ni**er og den traff
De ga han 9 år den dommeren var for kjapp
Min broder var for risky men rotter fikk han tatt
Ingen snakes i min sirkel når vi spiser rundt et bord
Det var null bevis, askar fant ikke et spor
Du tysta på en bror også kalle deg for bror
Fuck hva dem sier og fuck hva dem tror
The lyrics to AD's song VIII are a reflection on both the limitations and acceptance of oneself. The opening lines "One, I'm ready for two, Too many, three, four, I'm out before the count, you know that" set the tone for the song's message. The singer is ready for what's to come (one), but once things become overwhelming (three, four), they retreat (I'm out before the count). The singer then acknowledges the things that keep them going (five, six, seven, eight) before diving into the chorus.
The chorus itself is repetitive in nature, emphasizing the concept of accepting oneself with the lyrics "I've only got eight fingers, won't get any bigger, never need a trigger, I've told you so, I won't get any taller, smaller 'cause it's alright." The singer is stating that they are content with their current state and don't need any alterations or enhancements to their being. The repetition of "cause it's alright" further emphasizes this acceptance.
In the second half of the song, the singer seems to become more confident and almost cocky, proclaiming "I'm ready for the crowd, give me some noise, I'm taking it hard, I'm shaking on, yeah, I'm ready for the crowd." This can be interpreted as the singer embracing their limitations and using them to their advantage, rather than feeling held back by them. Overall, the song encourages listeners to embrace their flaws and limitations rather than constantly striving for more.
Line by Line Meaning
One, I'm ready for two
I'm prepared to move forward to the next step
Too many, three, four
There are too many obstacles ahead
I'm out before the count, you know that
I am giving up before it's too late
Five, this work keeps me alive
My work defines me and keeps me going
And don't forget six, seven and eight
There are more steps to come and I am ready for them
Yeah, we're moving on
We are progressing to the next level
Give me some noise
I want to hear loud support from people
I'm taking it hard
I am putting in all my effort
I'm shaking on, yeah
I am nervous but ready to perform
Whoah, you know
I want you to understand
I'm only getting smaller
I am not growing in stature
'Cause it's alright
That's fine with me

Well, here. You can plug it in and then run some cables out. You can also turn some knobs and play three chords, then turn another knob and things sound the same, only different. And you can get it at where I work, wherever that is.
@GuitarTricks
Yes, it is!! ~Neal
@GuitarTricks
Got it, thanks for the heads up.
@superpowter77
@UncleJoey12 totally agreed, after trying my yamaha and ibanez guitars with the Dr-880 drum machine, with patch #41(Chorus acoustic guitar tone) I got compliments from people listening my performances. It simply sounds amazing. well to be honest I clean it at bit with my avalon U5 specially for recording, but for live use, my dr-880 is making a great difference even without the Avalon U5.
@Baronheim
I think it sounds better raw, however I think the high end volume boost would be good for my classical.
@sargentppeper
@gmdinformation Thanks for the quick response. I have two electric acoustics. A Carvin AC375 with the Fishman Prefix Pro pickup system and a Godin Multiac nylon/cassical string with RMC Hexaphonic multi senser pickup. What Boss pedal would you recomend? Just want to warm these guys up live. Thanks again! :)
@gmdinformation
@sargentppeper The AD-3 doesn't have the "body" control on it like the AD-5 does. That was an early kind of modeling, and it worked great. It depends on your pickup though. Some, like the old Dual Matrix system, sounded better through the Yamaha AG-Stomp.
@wasabihansen
does tha works with other acoustic instruments... a banjo, a lap steel or a violin??
@GuitarTricks
any acoustic with a pickup, piezo-type pickup works best, most acoustics come with this type. ~Neal
@sargentppeper
@gmdinformation What about the Boss AD-3? I know it was the first version of these acoustic pedals. I want to purchase one of these, so I'm checking out what others have to say in compairing all 3 models. :)
