In For The Kill
Caskey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
It feels good to be alive
When we're sitting at home
Thinking we all caught
Knowing when I drop mine
It'll be an onslaught, homie, it's time
And boy the times remind me
That Nostradamus gave signs
I was getting mine
With a couple Einsteins and
Planning my arrival, so vital
Don't got the time to waste
Just slang bibles our kids got time to face
'Cause they see all these TV
Shows and no American idol who gon' be it?
I'm tryin' to take the truth and OD it
They say the real is back, I don't see it
So if we gotta burn a couple MCs, so be it
I put 'em all at the stake
Set fire to the whole thang
Tell me who fake and who real and who ain't
Or if we all got chains we can't break out
I was asleep, I'm awake now
We can fight our desires, ooh
But when we start making fires
(I was asleep, I'm awake now)
We get ever so hot (yeah) ooh
Whether we like it or not
(I was asleep, I'm awake now)
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill (yeah)
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
I swear, I had two shots
And no one's caught, God damn
The plan was out of wack
The crack turned to sand
My lucid dream detached, I'm back
Into the landscape
Whoa, I work till my hand break
Push that work like it's my Aunt Tay
Into the center of the pot, my unlocked
Government say I got a criminal plot
Couldn't never say I tried to
Help ya to criminal
And those are subliminal shots
Got something to say
I'll put you on blast in the Colosseum
God body, should've been a Mausoleum
They say you got clones
But they don't know how to be him
Plus he got hoes
But they don't wake up till the PM
Never get to see him 'cause he in
The studio and can't break out
I was asleep, I'm awake now
We can fight our desires, ooh
But when we start making fires
(I was asleep, I'm awake now)
We get ever so hot (yeah) ooh
Whether we like it or not
(I was asleep, I'm awake now)
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill (yeah)
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
Yo, this is just me when I'm alone
Grandmama living upstate
My mama at home looking like
She ain't got faith
My sister in a rat race, I been in the game
But I ain't coming in last place
Way too many ash trays
Been a lot of pain since
My father went and passed, wait
I ain't get to say goodbye to
Him on his last day
So excuse me if I'm bitter
And excuse me if these hoes
They looking like gold diggers
I'm a cold killer
Another told me "go figure"
Mistook me for just being a
Rapper and dro dealer
And then he slipped up
The trigger got pulled
I live in the times when shit live
Liquor is cool kids don't go to school
Everyone and they mama pack a tool
So, it makes sense to pack two
Is that cool? I'm sorry for the
Time I had to take out
I was asleep, I'm awake now
We can fight our desires, ooh
But when we start making fires
(I was asleep, I'm awake now)
We get ever so hot (yeah) ooh
Whether we like it or not
(I was asleep, I'm awake now)
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill (yeah)
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand
I'm going in for the kill
I'm doing it for a thrill
Oh, I'm hoping you'll understand
And not let go of my hand

@@dessy8732 Sounds like an excuse not to even try to wake them. We've gotta keep the useful information in circulation, speak up in the face of tyranny and oppression, so the people after will follow suit and so on.... They did it before, we got to hear some of their perspectives and gatherin what they was doin some of us, and we've gotta keep it goin. For alot of us it was artists, but that can be a confine from conventional premises. I make music for the Sol. My own. I I have heard many different styles and people saying real shit that matters and I desire to get such messages out to the people who are really with the shit, help people to guide theirselves, get them ready to stand up, like I was gna say Im really feeling this song, but also notice "..in thje studio but cant break out....but if we all got chains we cant break out...' I see into the layers, tell layered shit, start showin the world tht you dont give a fuck that people act like youre some kind of moster for using your fuckin head. Im tired of that shit, people actin like theres no point in deep shit. It is truly sad how people will act like the thinkers are the idiots and act pious while making stupid decisions and being pretensious. But youve gotta operate from beyond that if you have any intention of it getting any better. The system rewards stupidity, and only enough for the average person to play along that these goverments are not dictatorships, and that somehow life can be made a fair deal if you were born with the right lottery ticket or something. Bunch fo bullshit disempowering thinking. Be not a slave. Speak up, act like the other people wierd for NOT using their heads, do some dumb random shit out and public just to entertain yourself and laugh, show people how to live. Talk about what we should be doin, and poeple who dont get it, fuck em. Theyre not the people you're reaching out to. Imagine there had been no Nas, Tupac, Alan Watts, Terrance Mckenna, no revolutions to beahd slave masters, look at how fucke up theyve got language that we still callin those crackas 'masters.'...So we're just gna let everything stay fucked up? The problem isnt the fOrbidden Fruit its the lack of it in peoples diet. Let what you say be complex, let the information flow from your tongue, dont just be a little bitch and let everything go to shit, make it not cool to be stupid, this is some shit to be doin.
