Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

'Cause some things just don't change
It's better when they stay the same
Although the whole world knows your name
So on the, biggest days, they came to see you spit your game
Ooh
It shouldn't be difficult, to explain
Just why you came back again, you hate the fame
Love the game, cold as ice, you remain
Fuck em' all, tell 'em all, eat shit, here we go again

So, god damn, is it that time again already?
Ha ha, you don't look too happy to see me
Fuck man, don't everybody welcome me back at once
All right, fuck y'all then

You can get the dick, just call me the ball sac, I'm nuts
Michael Vick in this bitch dog, fall back you mutts
Fuck you worms, you never seen such a sick puppy
Fuck it a sick duck, I'm on my duck sick mommy
And my nuts, lick, gobble 'em up trick, yummy
Bitch you don't fucking think that I know that you suck dick dummy?
You'll get your butt kicked, fuck all that love shit honey
Yeah I laugh when I call you a slut, it's funny!
Shawty dance while I dis you to the beat, fuck the words
You don't listen to 'em anyway, yeah struck a nerve sucker
Motherfucker might as well let my lips pucker
Like Elton John, cause I'm just a mean cock sucker
This shit is on, cause you went and pissed me off
Now I'm sitting and pissing on everybody
Give a fuck if it's right or wrong
So buck the Buddha, light a bong
But take a look at Mariah the next time I inspire you to write a song, c'mon

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
When it snows and it's twenty be-low
Ask me why man I just don't know know know know know know know
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows blo-blo-blo-blo-blo-blows
Oh oh oh oh oh

Fuck it I'm a loose cannon, Bruce Banner's back in the booth
Y'all are sitting ducks, I'm the only goose standing
I set the world on fire, piss on it, put it out
Stick my dick in a circle, but I'm not fucking around motherfucker
I'll show you pussy footin', I'll kick a bitch in the cunt
Til it makes her queef and sounds like a fucking whoopy cushion
Who the fuck is you pushin', you musta mistook me for some sissy
Soft punk looking for some nookie or bosom
Go ahead, fucking hater push me
I told you ain't no fucking way to shush me
Call me a fagot cause I hate a pussy
Man the fuck up sissy, G's up
All you gardeners freeze up, put your hoes down (shady ease up!)
(Man chill) nah I can't god dammit
Rappers are land fill, drop the anvil
These are shoes that you can't fill
Shit the day that happens the world'll stop spinning
And Michael J. Fox'll come to a stand still
During an earthquake, urine in your face
Cause you're fake, ah what the fuck, that hurt wait!
Ah what the fuck, I just got struck by lightening
Alright then I quit, god I give up
Call it evil that men do, lord forgive me for what my pen do
This is for your sins, I cleanse you
You can repent but I warn you, if you continue
To hell I'll send you, and just then the wind blew and I said

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
When it snows and it's twenty be-low
Ask me why man I just don't know know know know know know know
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows blo-blo-blo-blo-blo-blows
Oh oh oh oh oh

How long will I be this way? Shady until my dying day
Til I hang up the mic and it's time for me to say
So long, til then I drop the fucking bombs
Like I miss the pass when I went long
If you don't like it you can kiss my ass in a lint thong
Now sing along, slut this, slut that, learn the words to the song
Oh bitches don't like that, homie I'll be nicer to women
When the aqua man drowns and the human torch starts swimming
Man I'm a cold soul, I roll solo so
So don't compare me to them other bums over there
It's like apples to oranges, peaches to plums yeah
I'm bananas pussy, cut off the grapes and grow a pair
But I swear, you try to dis me, I'll slaughter you
I put that on everything, like everyone does with auto-tune
That last thing you wanna do is have me spit out a rhyme
And say I was writing this and I thought of you so

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
When it snows and it's twenty be-low
Ask me why man I just don't know know know know know know know
I'm as cold as the cold wind blows blo-blo-blo-blo-blo-blo-blows
Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
I don't know, I don't know what caused,
I don't know what caused me to be this way to be this way
I don't know, I don't know by I probably be this way til my dying day




I don't know why I'm so, I'm so cold beat bangs, I don't need to say
I guess this is how you made me

Recalling the earlier image of causing chaos and then extinguishing it


Stick my dick in a circle, but I'm not fucking around motherfucker
Reiterating the assertion of authority and seriousness with the use of vulgar language


I'll show you pussy footin', I'll kick a bitch in the cunt
Repeating the threat and display of violent behavior towards women


Til it makes her queef and sounds like a fucking whoopy cushion
Repeating the degrading and offensive acts described earlier


Who the fuck is you pushin', you musta mistook me for some sissy
Repeating the challenge and assertion of masculinity


Soft punk looking for some nookie or bosom
Repeating the mockery of someone seeking sexual or emotional intimacy


Go ahead, fucking hater push me
Reiterating the challenge and provocation towards those who dislike or criticize


I told you ain't no fucking way to shush me
Stating once again that no one can silence or control me


Call me a fagot cause I hate a pussy
Repeating the use of derogatory language to express disdain for weakness or cowardice


Man the fuck up sissy, G's up
Repeating the demand for someone to be more assertive and aggressive, using vulgar language


All you gardeners freeze up, put your hoes down (shady ease up!)
Repeating the command towards those who work in menial jobs, accompanied by the call to calm down


(Man chill) nah I can't god dammit
Repeating the refusal to calm down despite someone's request


Rappers are land fill, drop the anvil
Repeating the belittlement of other rappers


These are shoes that you can't fill
Repeating the assertion of uniqueness and talent beyond others' reach


Shit the day that happens the world'll stop spinning
Reiterating the exaggerated hypothetical scenario, suggesting the world would be drastically affected if others were as talented


And Michael J. Fox'll come to a stand still
Repeating the reference to Michael J. Fox's condition as an example of astonishment


During an earthquake, urine in your face
Repeating the graphic imagery as a form of humiliation and fear


Cause you're fake, ah what the fuck, that hurt wait!
Returning to the accusation of inauthenticity and expressing surprise at the response


Ah what the fuck, I just got struck by lightning
Repeating the expression of shock or surprise at a sudden event


Alright then I quit, god I give up
Repeating the feigned surrender, frustration, and resignation


Call it evil that men do, lord forgive me for what my pen do
Repeating the acknowledgment of potentially harmful actions and seeking forgiveness


This is for your sins, I cleanse you
Repeating the claim to offer redemption and purification through one's music


You can repent but I warn you, if you continue
Repeating the encouragement for others to change, suggesting negative consequences for not doing so


To hell I'll send you, and just then the wind blew and I said
Returning to the assertion of the power to punish others, transitioning to another part of the story


How long will I be this way? Shady until my dying day
Repeating the question about the duration of one's controversial behavior, asserting persistence until death


Til I hang up the mic and it's time for me to say
Repeating the idea that retirement will mark a change in behavior and outlook


So long, til then I drop the fucking bombs
Repeating the use of explosive and impactful music until retirement


Like I miss the pass when I went long
Repeating the sports analogy to illustrate a missed opportunity or mistake


If you don't like it you can kiss my ass in a lint thong
Repeating the defiance and suggestion of humiliation for those who disagree


Now sing along, slut this, slut that, learn the words to the song
Repeating the command for others to embrace offensive language and insulting terms, mocking their need to conform


Oh bitches don't like that, homie I'll be nicer to women
Repeating the acknowledgement that derogatory language offends some, promising to show more respect towards women


When the aqua man drowns and the human torch starts swimming
Repeating the use of superhero references to convey unlikely scenarios, implying that it will never happen


Man I'm a cold soul, I roll solo so
Reiterating one's emotional detachment and preference for solitude


So don't compare me to them other bums over there
Repeating the rejection of any comparison to less talented and insignificant individuals


It's like apples to oranges, peaches to plums yeah
Repeating the highlighting of glaring differences and superiority in comparison


I'm bananas pussy, cut off the grapes and grow a pair
Repeating the assertion of being crazy and encouraging others to be courageous and assertive


But I swear, you try to dis me, I'll slaughter you
Repeating the promise of severe retaliation and destruction to anyone who attempts to disrespect or criticize


I put that on everything, like everyone does with auto-tune
Reiterating the seriousness and legitimacy of one's threats, comparing it to the widespread use of auto-tune in music


That last thing you wanna do is have me spit out a rhyme
Repeating the warning about the consequences of provoking a lyrical response


And say I was writing this and I thought of you so
Repeating the implication that the song was created specifically to target and offend a particular individual


Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, I'm as cold as the cold wind blows
Reiterating one's emotional detachment and toughness


When it snows and it's twenty be-low
Reinforcing the harsh conditions and the extent of emotional coldness


Ask me why man I just don't know know know know know know know
Continuing to express confusion and uncertainty about one's behavior


Fuck it I'm a loose cannon, Bruce Banner's back in the booth
Repeating the assertion of being unpredictable and explosive


Y'all are sitting ducks, I'm the only goose standing
Reinforcing the claim of dominance and superiority over others


I set the world on fire, piss on it, put it out
Recalling the earlier image of causing chaos and then extinguishing it


Stick my dick in a circle, but I'm not fucking around motherfucker
Reiterating the assertion of authority and seriousness with the use of vulgar language


I'll show you pussy footin', I'll kick a bitch in the cunt
Repeating the threat and display of violent behavior towards women
