C.N.N. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We in the Pit man
It's Mortal Kombat
(Mortal Kombat out here)
Niggas is scruffin
Bitches is bluffin
And turkeys is gettin stuffin
Livin in the Pit
Haters spreadin that funk round town
So it smell like piss
On the ground some spikes
Cause some be runnin from the cops
We will not stop even if uppercut and drop
Even if uppercut and drop
Drop
In the Pit
Haters spreadin that funk round town
So it smell like piss
On the ground some spikes
Cause some be runnin from the cops
We will not stop even if uppercut and drop
Drop
And I'm gone drop like a meteor
Sprinkles on my fish when I feed her
Mistreat her like my tamogotchi pet
I'm the doc examine chest
Sharkin it's so wet
I think that I'm seein fishnets
And haters want me to reset
Pushin on my buttons To end my life sudden death
Makin moves I'm baracka
All pushin it Toy Tonka
Imagination of Wonka
Cookin it up chimmy chonga
In the Pit
Haters spreadin that funk round town
So it smell like piss
On the ground some spikes
Cause some be runnin from the cops
We will not stop even if uppercut and drop
Drop
Uh huh
Like I said it's sudden death
Usin all my energy, until there aint nuthin left
Cept the sound with the cleft
Yea the bass low in F
Hearin it outside
Old folks say are you deaf
Choppin it up Iron Chef
I be up in the kitchen
How I heat up beats
Is like a new made invention
Like the game bout those inches
Made the pro-bowl with body and oil
Slick greasy in the pit
Like lubricatin oil
In the Pit
Haters spreadin that funk round town
So it smell like piss
On the ground some spikes
Cause some be runnin from the cops
We will not stop even if uppercut and drop
Drop
The song "Closer" by C.N.N. is a vivid portrayal of life in the pit. The pit is a place where trouble runs rampant and everyone is on edge. The lyrics paint a picture of a world where anything can happen, and danger lurks around every corner. The song opens with the line "We in the Pit man, It's Mortal Kombat," signaling that life in the pit is like a game of Mortal Kombat, with people fighting for survival.
The chorus of the song continually reinforces the idea that life in the pit is tough. The lyrics "Haters spreadin that funk round town, So it smell like piss" suggest that the pit is an unpleasant place to be. The reference to "spikes" on the ground suggests that people are willing to go to great lengths to avoid the police. The line "We will not stop even if uppercut and drop" reinforces the idea that people in the pit are willing to fight to the bitter end.
The second verse of the song is more personal, with the singer describing his own experiences in the pit. The reference to "meteor" and "sprinkles on my fish when I feed her" suggest that the singer is living a fast and reckless lifestyle. The line "Makin moves I'm baracka" suggests that the singer is politically savvy, but it is unclear whether he is using that skill to his advantage.
Overall, the song "Closer" by C.N.N. is a visceral representation of life in the pit. It depicts a world where danger is always present, and people are willing to fight for what they believe in.
