Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sit back, relax
Taking off, we back
I ain't come to play
Only speak in facts
Watch how we react
Watch how we react, yeah
Sit back, relax
I ain't come to play
Only speak in facts
Watch how we react
Pour the four, react
You can smell the ac
I be on attack, yeah
Lifestyle get a little too wild
Ice bite, but the chain too wild
Night flight taking off real wild
Lifestyle get a little too wild
Ice bite, but the chain too wild
Night flight taking off real wild
Got a new bag
Pink 50's mixing nice with them blue racks
This a new pack
Pink 10's mixing nice with them blue caps
And I'm smoking new gas
Pink candy and cookies it got me too smacked
And my bitch is too bad
Hit it from the back, she need a new back
Sit back, relax
Take a sip, get thraxed
I ain't come to play, you can drop the act
Yeah they talk a lot, but it's talk, no facts
Sit back, relax, cause the boy is back
You be talking like you got it but you lack
I've been down before they stabbed me in the back
When I'm around I'm they best friend, yeah
Lord knows I hate a yes man, aye
I don't rap to impress them, aye
It just go silent when we press them, yeah
I stay solid with my day ones, yeah
It ain't nothing just to spray one
Watch your mouth, get smacked
Yes the 'Ville is back
I be with the real, never with the whack
You just talk a lot, and it all be cap
Yes it all be cap
Yeah it all be cap, yeah
Been with it had to get it from the go
Used to get it out the dirt
Used to get it outta hoe
Used to get it off the buzz
Used to get it off the yo
Used to get it from finessing those who thought I was a joke
Yeah I came back way harder, way smarter
Came back on some goat shit like my last name Carter
Rolling up a plane, you gonna think that thing chartered
Have you sleeping with the fishes like your name tarter
Lifestyle get a little too, wild
Ice bite but the chain too, wild
Night flight take off real
Wild
Wild
Wild
Yeah
The lyrics to B.S.A.'s song "React" convey a sense of confidence and determination. The opening lines of "Sit back, relax, taking off, we back" suggest that the artist is ready to make a powerful statement. B.S.A. asserts that he has not come to play games, but to only speak the truth ("Only speak in facts"). The repetition of "watch how we react" emphasizes the notion that their actions will speak louder than words.
The lyrics also touch on a wild and indulgent lifestyle, with references to pouring and reacting to a drink ("Pour the four, react, you can smell the ac") and the use of substances ("I be on attack"). B.S.A. seems to embrace the excitement and chaos of this lifestyle, describing it as "wild." The mention of a "new bag" and mixing different currencies and drugs suggests a level of opulence and experimentation.
Throughout the song, B.S.A. reflects on his experiences and the people around him. He expresses a disdain for yes-men and those who talk without backing it up with actions ("Yeah they talk a lot, but it's talk, no facts"). B.S.A. asserts his loyalty to his day ones and his ability to handle any situation ("It ain't nothing just to spray one").

To clarify, guys, I do know that "Volkssturmgewehr" means "Volksturm...gewehr" and not "Volkssturmgewehr". I've explained that myself many times. I was attempting to explain the same thing and stated "people's assault rifle" for that reason and the edit makes it seem as though that's how I was translating it. Not Gamespot's fault - I ramble on for ages and they have to cut it into something watchable :)
Jonathan Ferguson
To be clear - they didn't butcher the line at all - I did say it. I just went on to clarify the origin of the name and that was one of many things cut for time.
ANASPAN
And that's exactly the rambling we keep coming back for!
Dave Thompson
How dare they cut the rambling.........that's part of the appeal!
Boris Müller
I wonder how many times translations have caused this sort of mix up. For example; I can never remember if Gewehr means “gun” or “rifle”. It seems to be somewhat interchangeable.

EDITORS, KEEP THE RAMBLE
