"Rule number one: Keep your fazers on stun."
Stun Gun
Czarface Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh shit
Lines cut like a machete swing
Times up, before they set the ring
Deadly with the pen I bring
The chemistry is menacing
Like what?
Let me be frank, like Bergdahl at a casting call
Punish cats like kite mask and all
I'm like a 2017 Gordon Hayward 'cause I don't play
But I'm okay
I rock the rappers like Chipotle
I hope they get their shit together
'Cause the raps they give are somethin' like a laxative
Whatever
The reigning adjective to describe the way I tear the mic with a vengeance
Unless I gotta be that guy and use 'erudite' in a sentence
Nah these haters can't compete
They pray to God I'm fake but I'm real like a Trump tweet, damn
My life look like Able's gun
It's never set to stun
You better run
(What you mean by, "It never set on stun?")
You know
(Supposed to be on stun)
(Get yourself hurt, son)
Let me break it down
I grown since mic mastery
Sometimes I'll reach like like a hacker on D
This ain't hockey I met a human stand tall like Ewing
Lines epic like the opening crawl on the first viewing
Pursuing Illinois, Sufjan Stevens
Even though he's an Asthmatic Kitty
He's too calm breathing
Ripping crews like rotten tomato reviews of The Mummy
I'm ballin' like I'm hoopin' for money
Who want it from me?
I'll wait, step wait
While your shit's weak, pipsqueek
Make me wanna mute you like when Steven A. Smith speak
So ahead of my time when I send savagery
The link won't expire until after the singularity
Been tellin' ya'll now you seein' what I mean and shit
John Williams still workin' on my theme and shit
(Yo yo yo)
Find a better place
It's Esoteric wreakin' havoc with the metal face
(Get out)
I heard you talkin' 'bout me, man
(Hahahaha)
