Uppercut
Discos Porno VOL.1 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"I wanted to bring back that reality,
Nobody can ever be confused and think I'm fuckin' Mike Tyson
And I'm the heavyweight champion,
I'm a little nigga, that's why its so raw to just watch me battle lions,
'Cause I'm a little skinny nigga battlin' niggas three times my size"

Watch this uppercut, here it come
Watch the jab nigga, ugh
Here it come, look out, watch my arms

Now see so many motherfuckers want to take a piece
Commin' equipped with some shit that niggas just can't believe
I pull a trick from my sleeve now kamikaze
I'm all over that nigga, come identify the body
My middle finger to you hoe niggas
Run up on me, and ill be forced to let it go nigga
I ain't the one you want to try, why, stayin' high
I hit this blunt an watch these motherfuckers die
Whose runnin' these streets I said that cocaine
Cause in the the dope game, niggas'll die 'fore they go broke mayne
Another hustler makin' major cash
'til the punk police come an raid ya ass
Now you stressed doin' fed time, and its a bitch
Cause the judge gave you 8 years, you doin' 6
And we know that you can't hang, you a trick
Rolled over turned snitch like a biatch

Now you know you shoulda ducked nigga
Gotchu fallin' from the uppercut, fucked, so what's up nigga
Now you know you shoulda ducked nigga
Gotchu fallin' from this uppercut, stuck, so what's up nigga

They got a nigga in the dice game, I'm feelin' lucky
But the nigga just a little bigger, he tryna fuck me
Out my cash, imma blast nigga, he don't know
I gotta tell ya like the last nigga, gotta go
Don't need to roll for the truck, I get em' up
Left to right, my uppercut'll hit em' up (ha)
I'm known to walk the streets on any block
I love my niggas, but I ain't puttin' down my glock
The gun shots rang when I lose nigga, and ooh nigga
I'mma show you not to ever play a true nigga (haha)
Lay it down just to prove it
And fuck the rappin motherfucker we can do this

Now you know you shoulda ducked nigga
Gotchu fallin' from the uppercut, fucked, so what's up nigga
Now you know you shoulda ducked nigga
Gotchu fallin' from this uppercut, stuck, so what's up nigga

They claim that we violent, we named after tyrants
This revolution won't be televised, we keep it silent (shh)
Roll on our enemies, beat em' at they own game
Molotov cocktails, release an up in flames
Tired of bein' stepped on, sick of bein' held back
Lookin' through my rear view, thinkin' bout the pay back
Want to see my kids grow don't know if imma make it though
One more nigga came up short in the ghetto
Society lied to me so I'm strapped with the metal
Push ya middle finger up nigga if you a rebel
Have ya face down goin in ya pockets if ya let em
I done lost too many homies for me to ever forget em
I done made so many mistakes but still I don't regret em
I'm a product of the pimp, the pusher, and the reverend
I'm a product of the block, the fiends, and the felons
We all lost souls tryna find our way to heaven

Now you know you shoulda ducked nigga
Gotchu fallin' from the uppercut, fucked, so what's up nigga
Now you know you shoulda ducked nigga
Gotchu fallin' from this uppercut, stuck, so what's up nigga

"To all the conrads no longer with us, see you when we get there
'Pac, Yak, we gon' keep on ridin', give these cowards the uppercut




'Til we get up there with y'all, you know! Thug Life we still livin' it
Outlaw for life, in the name of the Don, let's go! woo"

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from Discos Porno VOL.1's song, Uppercut, talk about the harsh realities of life, where the world is not always kind to little men like the songwriter. He speaks of how nobody can mistake him for Mike Tyson as he is a small man fighting against larger opponents, and how it is raw to watch him battle these lions. In the second verse, he paints a picture of how he is ready to take on anyone who tries to mess with him, as he is equipped with some dangerous fighting skills that leave his opponents in disbelief. He also talks about how society has been lying to him, leading him to carry a gun for protection to keep up with the likes of his enemies.


The third verse seems to be a tribute to people who have died, such as Tupac and Yak, who are no longer with us. The songwriter continues to talk about how his life has been shaped by the pimp, the pusher, and the reverend – a product of the block, the fiends, and the felons. He feels that they are all lost souls looking to find their way to heaven. In the end, he pays homage to Thug Life, which is still very much alive and Outlaw for life.

We use Molotov cocktails to set things on fire


Tired of bein' stepped on, sick of bein' held back
We are tired of being mistreated and held back


Lookin' through my rear view, thinkin' bout the pay back
I am thinking about revenge while looking through my rear view mirror while driving


Want to see my kids grow don't know if imma make it though
I want to see my children grow up but I don't know if I will live long enough


One more nigga came up short in the ghetto
Another person died young in the ghetto


Society lied to me so I'm strapped with the metal
Society has betrayed me, so I protect myself with a weapon


Push ya middle finger up nigga if you a rebel
Raise your middle finger if you are a rebel


Have ya face down goin in ya pockets if ya let em
They will rob you if you let them put your face down and go through your pockets


I done lost too many homies for me to ever forget em
I have lost too many friends to ever forget them


I done made so many mistakes but still I don't regret em
I have made many mistakes, but I do not regret them


I'm a product of the pimp, the pusher, and the reverend
I am a product of a pimp, a drug dealer, and a religious leader


I'm a product of the block, the fiends, and the felons
I am a product of the neighborhood, drug addicts, and criminals


We all lost souls tryna find our way to heaven
We are all lost souls trying to find our way to heaven


"To all the conrads no longer with us, see you when we get there
To all the friends who have passed away, we will meet again in the afterlife


'Pac, Yak, we gon' keep on ridin', give these cowards the uppercut
We will continue to ride and fight, we will defeat our enemies


'Til we get up there with y'all, you know!
Until we join our deceased friends in the afterlife


Thug Life we still livin' it
We still live the life of thugs


Outlaw for life, in the name of the Don, let's go! woo"
We are outlaws for life and we will fight in the name of our leader, let's go!
