Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah! Yo, uh,
A lotta rappers try approaching the omen,
My palms are punishin' people while I'm up at the podium,
Pharaohs folding 'em, like washed clothes again,
I'm a vulture when the flow go choke your kid,
Broke, I leave most of them, slow, I keep my motionin'
I silence the wise, with lyrics make a scientist cry,
Making a secret society expose they purpose,
Making 'em unleash info and exploding my surface,
I'm taking my time to birth this, rap entity earthless,
It's show time, there's no time, we ready when the curtain split,
I'm hurting shit, too powerful for painkillers
On the concrete jungle, we walk like trained guerrillas
Untamed, and my niggas is Kane
Kool G, Rakim, combined into one frame
We like the new mecca of immaculate rappers,
Vinnie Paz, call the goons, now we back with the clappers.
(Verse 2: Chief Kamachi)
Yo,
The man silent, kill him with what I mentally says,
Bloody Fez, choke you like an Indian res
Kamach, animal Turk, sick with a cannibal smirk,
Welcome, this where the murderers lurk,
It's my mind, that make sure that the Sun can work,
Scorch bodies, leave all of your gunmen hurt,
Pharaoh sultans, create a serious cult jam,
And my hand is where the tears of the pope ran,
They stay watching like they keep me on a scope cam,
I'm in heaven with the angels and smoke grams,
You need God, that's why the earth so damned,
International, trying to get my flow banned,
That's cool, if I don't kick these prayers,
A lot of floods and famine's gonna hit these years,
Kamachi back on the chapel stairs,
Open the clouds, let the thunder clap your ears. (Chyea!)
(Verse 3: King Syze)
If you wanna put your money up then muthafucka then put it,
for your families sanity man I wish that you wouldn't,
Niggas got nice flows, just don't know where to put it,
And I know your whole life your raps are edited footage,
Hey y'all mixtape niggas couldn't see my plateaus,
All up in my presence why y'all actin bashful,
King Syze cats and any clique they rap for,
y'all little light niggas couldn't feed my shadows,
From, city to city, intersection to session,
What you reflexin, with or without a weapon,
I'm always steppin, Never scared,
But always and forever prepared,
Yeah the ones who drink gas man, is revvin' they gears.
(Verse 4: Reef the Lost Cauze)
You now rocking with the foulest clique in the continent,
Total dominance, rise to prominence,
In my prime like Optimus,
Stand in astonishment,
Act as conglomerate, an axis of evil,
I know where Osama is, he down in Camp David,
Down and dirty like a damp basement,
The champ must demand greatness,
From himself, or be another contender,
There's 100's of niggas,
Dead left under the river,
From the days of slaves,
To Hurricanes in Orleans,
See my peoples graves floatin amongst,
the waves, there's hell to pay, but
the devil don't take checks,
I try to send a message to God,
his phone don't take text,
I need a new plan, a crook with knowledge,
times is hard homie, why I took them dollars,
Man, my momma got a mortgage,
and my little baby sista' need books for college,
I rob all y'all.
(Verse 5: Doap Nixion)
Hey yo,
They want the hood in here so they called me first,
I get em rappers Gatorade cuz they ball with thirst, UH!
This is more then music,
but these niggas is mad trash,
that's why the stores refuse em, yo,
I'm out in Georgia goin straight to the block,
I'm seein cats motorcyclin dawg I'm doin the wop,
I'm an OG, I call my Italian niggas a wop,
though they papers aint right but they got weight on the block,
I love em uh,
hand to hand till your hands ache,
I drunk so much syrup dawg I stop eatin pancakes,
Ya niggas cool dawg mines absurd hot,
Stop frontin like you's a killa money your nerves shot,
Yo you's a Paxil Nigga, Dumpin Zoloft in coffee,
AOTP will exhaust b,
cant keep it gear, cuz I'm blinging with F's,
but I got my mind right so swing your shit to the left.
(Verse 6: Demoz)
Nigga, If I had 24 hours to live,
Fuck 24 hours, gimme 24 seconds,
Vin I'm drivin off a bridge,
Broken rib, no windshield, covered in kerosene,
gasoline, tank filled to the top,
magazines of these phony rappers ripped in pieces,
No preachers, strong enough to take me outta my zone,
I broke jesus, choke niggas who squeal,
rob niggas who steal, kill niggas who kill,
I'm too sick for a pill,
Man these niggas aint real they real fake,
they say they a man but they fuckin' with real snakes,
thats when you put em in a trunk with they grill taped,
Whip in reverse and run into a steel gate,
I'm a suicide driver, never been a liar,
If I don't kill you later I'ma kill you "Manana",
y'all don't want know problems,
y'all don't want no drama,
Nigga I'ma take a trip with your baby momma, Suicide Driver.
(Verse 7: Celph Titled)
Ya betta cross your T's,
Cuz we'll dot your I's,
You can say that you specialize but Pharaohs will optimize,
Backstage will get a bitch backsmacked there,
The macplayer like dirty south pimpslapped clap snares, (YEAAH)
Holy Paragraphs, (What kind of shit is that?)
I'm Jesus in the flesh so this is muthafuckin Christian rap,
Y'all just Christmas wrap, must be the secret Santa,
My reindeer aim near, pierce you with the antlers,
I made em go easy, and called off the wolves on my AOTP radio CB,
Cuz y'all ain't worthy of grenades and RPG's,
Slit throat hope you float with sardines and seaweed,
Cuz this is C-E, L-P-H
Demonic symphony, listen to the hell we make,
And a year before your kids 10th birthday came,
You didn't have to wait for candles on the cake to see the nine flame.
(Verse 8: Vinnie Paz)
Respect a G, my clique clap at you incessantly,
I lay back and drink alcohol excessively,
There ain't a rapper that's alive today that's testing me,
I got degrees in being ignorant and weaponry,
A 40 oz and a dutch master is the recipe,
That's my shit there that'll be the death of me,
Give me a death mask, better yet a effigy,
I understand the math of death and it's complexity,
I understand how you was violently murked,
I understand how you was raised under the lies of the church, (ha-ha-ha-ha)
But understand and recognize that I'm cursed,
With the ability to end your fucking lives with a verse.
Yeah!
Brraat brraaat!!
Paz-man, AOTP, Ill Bill on the beat
Billy Crystal, what up baby? La Coka!
AOTP, ha ha ha.
The song "Seven" by Army of the Pharaohs featuring several members of the group such as Planetary, Chief Kamachi, King Syze, Reef The Lost Cauze, Doap Nixon, Demoz, Celph Titled, and Vinnie Paz is a powerful rap piece that uses explicit lyrics to convey various themes such as dominance, power, and control. Each member of the group is given a verse to showcase their flow and lyrics, and there is no chorus, just hard-hitting rap lyrics. The song opens with Planetary's verse, where he talks about his role as a leader, focusing on his powerful delivery that punishes his audience while on the stage. In the second verse delivered by Chief Kamachi, he emphasizes his killer mentality and his desire to be the best rapper in the business. King Syze takes the third verse, talking about how fake rap music has become and the need for authentic artists.
Reef The Lost Cauze's verse foreshadows the suffering to come in his community and the need for resilience. Doap Nixon follows, rapping about his experiences in the streets, love for Italian culture, and the futility of fake gangsta posturing. Demoz takes the 6th verse with a nihilistic and destructive energy, talking about his ability to cause chaos and destroy everything, and anyone, that crosses his path. Celph Titled takes the seventh verse, emphasizing his confidence and his willingness to use violence to end threats. Finally, Vinnie Paz closes out the song with his verse about being cursed to be deadly and the ability to take anyone's life with his words.
Line by Line Meaning
A lotta rappers try approaching the omen,
Many rappers try to challenge me, but they are doomed to fail.
My palms are punishin' people while I'm up at the podium,
I am delivering a powerful message through my lyrics, which are like weapons.
Eye on the prize,
I am focused on my goal and will not be deterred.
I silence the wise, with lyrics make a scientist cry,
My rhymes are so powerful that they can silence even the most intelligent and learned individuals.
Making a secret society expose they purpose,
My music can reveal the hidden secrets of powerful organizations.
Untamed, and my niggas is Kane
My crew is fierce and uncontrollable, like the Biblical figure Cain.
Down and dirty like a damp basement,
I am gritty and unrefined, like a dark and musty room.
If you wanna put your money up then muthafucka then put it,
If you want to challenge me, go ahead and try, but you will lose your money.
Niggas got nice flows, just don't know where to put it,
Some rappers have potential but lack direction.
Can't keep it gear, cuz I'm blinging with F's,
My jewelry is so expensive that it hinders my ability to move.
I try to send a message to God, his phone don't take text,
My prayers are not being answered, even though I try to reach out to a higher power.
Stop frontin like you's a killa money your nerves shot,
Stop pretending to be a tough guy, because you are weak and scared.
I broke jesus, choke niggas who squeal,
I am willing to do violent and sacrilegious things to get what I want.
Pharaohs will optimize,
My crew will make the most of any opportunity or challenge that comes our way.
Cuz y'all ain't worthy of grenades and RPG's,
You are not even worth the most powerful and destructive weapons.
But understand and recognize that I'm cursed,
Even though I am skilled and powerful, I am burdened with a dark fate.

I remember exiting the AMC theatres back in '95 thinking to myself what was and still is a psychological masterpiece. The screenwriter cleverly thought of a way to implement the 7 deadly sins as the theme in the movie. Seeing John Doe's motivation behind each sin and how he viewed the world was something I hadn't seen 'til then. In fact, I don't think I saw anything like Se7en before it came out. I think it opened up a lot of doors for future psychological thrillers. I don't know much about camera work and lighting, but it does seem like the director chose a somber look which helped with the feeling of the movie. The acting and music, especially J.S. Bach "Air on a G string" (slow but gripping scenes) were superb! I have nothing bad to say about the movie and highly recommend to see it. IMO, it's the best psychological thriller I've ever scene and puts others to shame. 5/5

@Elijah Gavin I've noticed alot of the AHS seasons borrow plot points and stylistic choices from other famous horror media. Hotel is also a rip-off of the movie starring David bowie "the hunger"(you should really check it out if you enjoyed the countess/sexy horny muederous vampires with fashion taste in a hotel). I'm pretty sure this was intentional homages instead of actual copying. That's why I like AHS so much. It's a copy of my favorite films made into a series (wether it would be worse or better)
Elijah Gavin
The entire season of American Horror Story - Hotel RIPPED this off so completely itβs hilarious, and I didnβt even know of this film when watching it. Itβs hilarious. Ryan Murphy us a hack
Pow
I remember being traumatized by this
Christie Smith
Written so brilliantly with the ending the way everything comes together to complete John's "MASTERPIECE"!!! Bravo to all the actors & crew involved
Catherine Rapicano
An added bonus having Kevin Spacey as the antagonist. He said of this part that he didn't want screen credit because it would take away from the whole concept of the film. I agree, and that was a damn self-less thing to do.
maxwesty
Still a brilliant movie, a modern classic!

I first watched this movie in 96 I was 11 (What's in the box NO what's in the box) that scene still rattles me to the core, I have and will never forget it.. thanks to the actors who made this flick.
Mike Barrett
It's one of personal top 5. Excellent movie π₯
Josh Jackzone
I feel like the new generation of movie watchers won't get this masterpiece. they will say it's boring and to slow. which is a shame. this movie is very well acted and directed. not to mention deep.
