Simply Amazin'
Blu & Exile Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(To all you talkin' all that bullshit)
(Imma put it to you like this)

Ey yo I'm tryn'a make these niggas go bonkers
From London to the youngest in Yonkers
We So-Cal residential lyrical monsters
Gettin' women's attention like I'm rippin' a concert
So put your hands high 'til your arms hurt
I walk the earth just like God works in mysterious ways
Your spirits is swayed
Every time my lyrics is played
So please stop givin' these lyricists praise
Cause they bluffin' while they bustin' with a serious face
And it's unbearable
These stereo-rap tracks are terrible
I'm here to take care of you wack cats
And bury you back at
Wherever you came from
I'm carryin' this game on my back 'til the pain's numb
And I be bustin' on fucks 'til I can't cum no longer
Losses, you gotta take some to grow stronger
I've conquered all you haters
Like a strong-armed dominator
Big dick tryn'a break a bit a' baby-mama maker
And ain't no time to take break
You gotta break the mold
I'm from a place where cats are born to play the gansta roles
Like hittin' switches I was gettin' hit with switches
Until I switched positions
Now I'm playin' when the game is on
Y'all think y'all bangin' but y'all ain't as strong
My pop a thug
I'm a son of a blood with blue Gators on
The record spinnin' his favorite songs
Now he's bangin' my shit on them same tables that he played 'em on nigga

(Sing along with it, if you didn't hear it, you gonna hear it right now)

Cause yo hip hop
It started out in the heart
A young nigga from the park sharp-shootin' with darts
Harpoonin' cartoonists talkin' too much talk
But walk a whole different stroll homeboy
You get sparked by the guy right here?
I make y'all niggas see the light like a bright idea
Heard you was lookin' for my weapon but my tongue's right here
So you can act like a fool
But y'all be done by noon off a' one light beer
So yeah fuck my crew
But let's get one thing clear
Y'all can't keep up with us because your lungs ain't clear
Y'all need a million-dollar budget and some punch lines here
All your boy need is one right ear
And I could probably change the world
Fuck you sold-soul rappers
After diamonds and pearls
Like you homo-rappers
Y'all some go-go girls
With your go-go gadgets
Exposin' what you holdin' like your soul don't matter
I got a 'go-go get it' mentality
So battle me please
I just throw out some cheese and y'all'll go-go at it
Got you reachin' for your 4-4 'matic
While I stagger motherfuckers with darts
I got my mojo mastered
The game is full of 'homo's backwards:
Mo' ho's than rappers
No flows but keep shows packed'er than us?
Fuck that we goin' platinum plus
And still ridin' on the back of the bus
Cause the bucks don't matter

(Turn it up, stop frontin', come on, turn it up)

And from the start of this shit
I took a vow to never part with this shit
I put my soul and all my heart in this shit
But in return I got burned like these rappers had my arteries lit
So now I'm spittin' fire darts when I'm pissed
And you don't wanna see me angry cause I can't be calmed
It's like you tryn'a take custody of my sound?
I'm the baby's mom
I been to court for this wack shit before
And had to file divorce you biters'd start payin' style-support
A child that don't smile no more
I found the short cut in life
But I'd rather take my time out the door
Fuck a knife I'm pullin' texts out for war
Cause I ain't good at cutting
Fuck y'all 's what Exile's for
See I'm the MC and he's the DJ
Manipulate the MP to translate what he say
Catch me on the freeway
1-10 south 'til it ends at Bridgetown, USA
So roll with us where the gorillas hang
Where the cold killas live
Where the gold diggas dig
Where you know niggas bang
Cause the walls show the gangs when you pass 'em
Where niggas stay blown like tires
And these haters wanna slash 'em
Platinum chains? Trained'a snatch 'em
You flashin' in the Range?
You waitin' for accident to happen on purpose
Cadillac verses
Sun-roofed diamond-back rap
That's the verdict nigga





(Always amazing)

Overall Meaning

The song Simply Amazin' by Blu & Exile, is a song that displays the duo's lyrical ability and their willingness to go above and beyond what the average rapper does. The song starts with a bang, with Blu rapping about how he wants to make people go wild, from London to Yonkers. He calls himself a So-Cal residential lyrical monster that gets women's attention, comparing himself to a concert performer. The next few lines talk about his ability to sway people with his lyrics and how he wants people to see through other lyricists who bluff while busting with a serious face. He then says he is here to take care of all the wack cats and bury them back where they came from, willing to carry the game on his back until the pain numbs.


Blu then raps about how he is a son of a blood with blue gators and how his father likes to spin his favorite songs on the same table where he now bangs his music. The second half of the song is Exile's time to shine, where he talks about his dedication to hip hop and how he will never part from it. He says he puts his soul and all his heart into the genre but, in return, gets burned by rappers and says he spits fire darts when he's angry. Exile then talks about his partnership with Blu, where he manipulates the MP to translate what Blu says. He ends the song talking about how they represent where the gorillas hang, the cold killers live, and how they make platinum chains to snatch them.

Because hip-hop music


It started out in the heart
It originated from deep emotions and passion


A young nigga from the park sharp-shootin' with darts
A talented young person from the neighborhood, delivering powerful lyrics


Harpoonin' cartoonists talkin' too much talk
Criticizing fake rappers who speak excessively


But walk a whole different stroll homeboy
But they live a completely different lifestyle, my friend


You get sparked by the guy right here?
You get impressed by the person standing right here?


I make y'all niggas see the light like a bright idea
I make you understand the truth, just like a brilliant idea


Heard you was lookin' for my weapon but my tongue's right here
I heard you were looking for a weapon, but my powerful words are my weapon


So you can act like a fool
So you can continue behaving foolishly


But y'all be done by noon off a' one light beer
But you all will be defeated easily


So yeah fuck my crew
So yeah, disregard my team


But let's get one thing clear
But let's understand one thing


Y'all can't keep up with us because your lungs ain't clear
You can't match our pace because you lack stamina


Y'all need a million-dollar budget and some punch lines here
You need a huge budget and better lines to compete


All your boy need is one right ear
All I need is one audience member who appreciates my music


And I could probably change the world
And maybe I can make a significant impact on the world


Fuck you sold-soul rappers
Disregard all the artists who prioritize money


After diamonds and pearls
After material possessions and luxury


Like you homo-rappers
Like those fake rappers


Y'all some go-go girls
You all are like dancers in a club


With your go-go gadgets
With your unnecessary gimmicks


Exposin' what you holdin' like your soul don't matter
Showing off material wealth while disregarding your true self


I got a 'go-go get it' mentality
I have a mindset of constantly striving for success


So battle me please
So, go ahead and challenge me


I just throw out some cheese and y'all'll go-go at it
I just offer some easy bait and you'll eagerly participate


Got you reachin' for your 4-4 'matic
Got you desperately grabbing your gun


While I stagger motherfuckers with darts
While I impress and defeat others with my lyrics


I got my mojo mastered
I have perfected my craft and skills


The game is full of 'homo's backwards
The music industry is filled with individuals who are fake or dishonest


Mo' ho's than rappers
There are more promiscuous individuals than genuine rappers


No flows but keep shows packed'er than us?
They don't have good lyrics but still manage to have successful shows more than us?


Fuck that we goin' platinum plus
We are determined to achieve platinum level success


And still ridin' on the back of the bus
And still facing discrimination and marginalization


Cause the bucks don't matter
Because the money is not the most important thing


(Turn it up, stop frontin', come on, turn it up)
Increase the volume, stop pretending, come on, turn it up


And from the start of this shit
Right from the beginning of this journey


I took a vow to never part with this shit
I made a promise to never abandon my passion for this music


I put my soul and all my heart in this shit
I have invested my essence and full dedication to this music


But in return I got burned like these rappers had my arteries lit
In return, I was deeply hurt and betrayed by these rappers


So now I'm spittin' fire darts when I'm pissed
Now, I'm delivering intense and aggressive lyrics when I'm angry


And you don't wanna see me angry cause I can't be calmed
And you don't want to witness my anger because it cannot be appeased


It's like you tryn'a take custody of my sound?
It's as if you're trying to claim ownership of my unique style


I'm the baby's mom
I'm the one who gave birth to this style


I been to court for this wack shit before
I have been criticized in the past for mediocre music


And had to file divorce you biters'd start payin' style-support
And had to separate from those who copied my style and make them acknowledge my influence


A child that don't smile no more
A child who lost their joy


I found the short cut in life
I found a quicker path to success


But I'd rather take my time out the door
But I prefer to take my time and leave at my own pace


Fuck a knife I'm pullin' texts out for war
I don't need a weapon, I use my words as ammunition in this battle


Cause I ain't good at cutting
Because I'm not skilled in causing physical harm


Fuck y'all 's what Exile's for
Forget about all of you, that's why Exile is here


See I'm the MC and he's the DJ
I am the rapper and he is the DJ


Manipulate the MP to translate what he say
Using the music player to convey the messages he wants to express


Catch me on the freeway
Find me on the highway


1-10 south 'til it ends at Bridgetown, USA
Taking the 1-10 south until reaching Bridgetown, USA


So roll with us where the gorillas hang
Come with us to where the tough individuals gather


Where the cold killas live
Where the fearless people reside


Where the gold diggas dig
Where the individuals seeking personal gain are found


Where you know niggas bang
Where you know people are involved in criminal activities


Cause the walls show the gangs when you pass 'em
Because the graffiti on walls reveals the presence of gangs


Where niggas stay blown like tires
Where people are constantly intoxicated


And these haters wanna slash 'em
And these haters want to harm them


Platinum chains? Trained'a snatch 'em
Expensive chains? They are keen to steal them


You flashin' in the Range?
You showing off in your luxury car?


You waitin' for accident to happen on purpose
Are you eagerly waiting for something bad to happen to you intentionally


Cadillac verses
Exceptionally high-quality lyrics


Sun-roofed diamond-back rap
Impressive and valuable rap music


That's the verdict nigga
That's the final judgement, my friend


(Always amazing)
(Consistently impressive)

M L

Haven't listened to this in years, forgot how good it was 🔥🔥🔥

Darrell Johnson

To anyone pulling up late in the game, yes this song is "Soul Rising," but it was called "Simply Amazing" on the OG pressings. "Soul Rising" came with re-pressings. What is now "Simply Amazin" used to be called "So(u)l Amazing."

And it's a few other joints that were renamed too

Chris Malinowski

Thanks for tbis was wondering. I feel like soul rising fits the song more than simply amazing tho, too similar to Soul amazing in title

Carter Branson

This shit is sooo refreshing

Billy Boy Loco

Fuckin dope
