Gemini
Black map Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Azure like endless seas
I've got my mothers eyes
And fathers birthright in my blood
Some will say "lucky strike"
Rise this empire to the sky
Plus I read I'm a Gemini

And we've minds sharp like daggers

We've got weapons infinite
We've got minds sharp like daggers
This life should be a hit

I've got no debt to pay
I'll step on anything that blocks the path laid in my way

Maybe it's an ascot day
From the top you can't deny it's because I'm a Gemini

Overall Meaning

In the song "Gemini" by Black Map, the singer sings about the traits they inherited from their parents, including their mother's eyes and father's birthright. The singer also mentions being a Gemini, and how that contributes to their personality. The use of the color azure to describe the wide-open space and the endless sea indicates a sense of freedom that comes alongside being a Gemini. The line "some will say lucky strike" could be interpreted as the singer's good fortune in being born with a certain set of traits that make them unique.

The chorus of the song emphasizes the sharpness of the minds of people born under the Gemini star sign by using the metaphor of being as sharp as a dagger. The singer seems to suggest that this sharpness is equivalent to infinite weapons, which could be interpreted as the ability to navigate through different situations with agility and adapt to change.

In the third verse, the singer emphasizes their self-confidence and the absence of debt that can potentially block them from their path. There is an implied sense of ruthlessness in the line "I'll step on anything that blocks the path laid in my way," indicating the singer's commitment to their goals.
