Part of My Life
Bumpy Knuckles Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I be all in you like you disrespected space in my lyric zone
I'm like a pit, with a leg in his mouth, I bring it home
Bumpy ripping everything known, block every blow zone
I make you sit your ho ass down, turn off your microphone
'Cause after me its un-rippable
I slap you in your mouth, your drinks'll be unsippable
I got miles of styles, you must be out your motherfuckin' brain
To think I'm not the nicest in the game
Disconnected from your mainframe, punched cocked
Twirl your nose up Murray the cop, to the beat down you don't stop
When Fox and Bumpy keep it hot
End the whole beef with just one shot, niggaz I fear not
This piece of steel with the screen on top
Projects uncut chyna white dope
Leave a freeze in a nigga throat
I fight for this like the right to vote
The poison I spit, they'll never be an anecdote
You niggaz thought I put my mic down
'Cause the industry's scared cause I put my fight down
Before I do that, I sell it out the trunk and make a mill
Now that's a real rap nigga deal
In 99 I'm droppin' niggaz like flies
Fuck flowin', I'm turning niggaz into Jesse Owens
Cock the four pound, keep it going, I'm in your dresser room layin'
You bitch ass niggaz just start prayin' baby

[Chorus]
Rhymin' is a part of my life
I'ma die with rhymin kids and a rhymin' wife
I don't let nobody judge me that don't know how to do what I do
So if you don't like it then fuck you!

I watch niggaz get hyped up with one single and get gassed
Then fall like a bad pass
Niggaz run outta New York, to live in other places
Hopin' somebody remember old rap faces
Fuck that, I'ma five borough thorough MC
Where I go, New York goes, keepin' New York flows
Niggaz be switchin' cause they not sure
Your style is played out soft shit like valure
In red and black living rooms when the system booms
He's a nice little diss to whomever whom
Come against me and I give you one of three picks:
Get shot, get stuck up, get your ass kicked
Bring your whole unit, and I be lyrically gunning em
Cause Freddie Foxxx be the illest thing since Run and em
I be running through you like a Hummer, you don't want none o'
So hot I turn December 25 into summer
I scrutinize niggaz and bring em down to size
My lyrical body slam will leave you paralyzed
Fuck what you memorize, I take you out of drive
And leave you neutralized and black in both your eyes
My rise is your demise, shut down your enterprise
Fox and Primo, we stay close like thighs
Bumpy got nine lives, like a cat
With a full gat, keep it underground fuck that!

[Chorus]

For every verse I ever spit, for every mic I ever rip
I still got a full clip of unstoppable shit
You mean to tell me motherfuckers never knew
That I be bustin' niggaz in the head with beer bottles like Guru
Check the mic one, two make sure its on
When I bring it to your headquarters, word is bond
Heads up, eyes and ears open
I got you hopin'
That you could catch rec like me
You got a better chance at kickin down a tree
With no legs, doing a handstand on two eggs
Motherfucker, I got lyrical instinct, fuck what you write
I'm The Source like magazine, on the cover with the Ruger 16
I ain't scared to diss a MC, but ask him if he scared to diss me
I bet he won't disagree, he'll probably start sayin' his throat
Hurt, his mom's is sick with a bad knee
Or start screamin he's about dough
He's just a faggot with a whack flow
Don't walk up on me talkin freestyles and off the top of the dome
I beat you down and send your ass home
I'm on my own time, I write my own rhymes
You want to be the nominee? you brave now?
I carve my rhyme in your back and bury you face down
Just remember nigga:
I'm Freddie the Foxxx I break his back and buck 'em buck 'em down





[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bumpy Knuckles’s song β€œThe Life” are full of aggression and ego, as the rapper boasts about his skills and takes aim at anyone who he feels doesn’t measure up. He likens himself to a pit bull, warning his rivals that he’ll relentlessly attack until he’s won the battle. He uses violent metaphors to describe his style, saying that he’ll leave his opponents beaten and bruised both physically and metaphorically. He also talks about his dedication to the art of rapping, stating that he’ll never stop spitting rhymes and that he’ll be remembered long after he’s gone.


Overall, the song is a powerful statement from a rapper who’s been in the game for years and has seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of the industry. He’s not holding back and is ready to take on anyone who wants to step up to the plate. The lyrics are raw, intense, and full of bravado, but also reflect the struggles and hard work necessary to make it in the rap world.


One interesting aspect of the song is how it showcases Bumpy Knuckles’s unique flow and lyrical style. He delivers his rhymes with a ferocity that’s hard to ignore, and his use of violent imagery and metaphors gives the song a gritty, streetwise edge. Another notable feature is the beat, which blends elements of classic East Coast hip-hop with more modern trap influences. It’s a hard-hitting track that perfectly complements Bumpy Knuckles’s aggressive delivery.
