Exile Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Media and the ignorance it brings
Heads are full with non-sense like shit in a sink
T.V screen seizes you can't even go to piss
Truth you're looking for covered there is a missing link

Devastation and Civilization become one
Meanings of murderers and innocents are gone
What's wrong and right is your present problem
Supplying and increasing your stupidity level

Commercialized your life now is ready to be sold
Canning your mind inside the electric red box

Ignorant is what you are

Breaking into your very mind
Brainwashing, blinding your sight




You're living in a state of illusion
Killing you alive for them is the solution

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Exile's song "Intro" are a condemnation of mainstream media and its effects on individuals in contemporary society. The opening line "Media and the ignorance it brings" suggests that the proliferation of media has allowed for ignorance to flourish. The following lines "Heads are full with non-sense like shit in a sink / T.V screen seizes you can't even go to piss" describe the all-encompassing nature of media consumption which prevent individuals from even being able to tend to their natural needs. The line "Truth you're looking for covered there is a missing link" further highlights how media distorts and obscures truth.


The song goes on to describe how the devastation wrought by civilization has led to a loss of morality and a blurring of the lines between good and evil. The line "Meanings of murderers and innocents are gone" suggests that in a world where violence and chaos are rampant, it is difficult to distinguish between perpetrator and victim. Additionally, the line "Supplying and increasing your stupidity level" speaks to how the constant stream of information can lead to a decrease in critical thinking and an increase in ignorance.


The chorus of the song, "Breaking into your very mind / Brainwashing, blinding your sight / You're living in a state of illusion / Killing you alive for them is the solution" further underscores the insidious nature of the media and the harm it can cause to individuals. The final line of the song "Ignorant is what you are" serves as a stark indictment of those who willingly consume media without question.

Intro to Exile Lyrics

[Intro]
Tell me, are we gonna make it?
Tell me, just don't think I'm mad (100)
Tell me, it's time to save it
Tell me, just don't think I'm mad
Tell me, are we gonna make it?
Tell me, just don't think I'm mad
Yeah
Tell me, are we gonna make it?
Tell me, just don't think I'm mad
Yeah
Look

[Verse]
I promise I'm not another rapper who blows up, then disappears
I play for more progression and growth and that come in years
My biggest fear is really exposing all of my fears
Ironically the more that I'm vulnerable people hear
Feel like I been a veteran even though this is new
I just acted like I knew who I was and what I could do
Maybe that's just how to good Lord bless me to see the truth
Celebrities are really no different than me and you
I remember when I started DMing one of my heroes
Told me there's much more to streaming, numbers and zeros
Taught me I gotta be different then all my piers
So I been controversy on the mic's like Shapiro
Anyways, back to the music, I got a lot
I don't think that there's a way to prepare you for what I got
Just know I'm coming back and it's for that number one spot
And although things change, I still lean on the Rock
I know a lot of people that wishing were in my place
Only reason I'm here, that's unconditional grace
I know a lot of girls with makeup caked on their face
I wish I could tell 'em the Creator don't make mistakes
I've met a lot of fellows who drown their sorrows in bottles
The only thing that they really drowning out is tomorrow
This year I prolly won't win a Grammy preaching the Gospel
Sometimes the truth is a very difficult pill to swallow
You ever love somebody so much you start getting scared?
Afraid that when they need you the most that you won't be there
I'm not saying that I was emotionally unprepared
But there's a difference in being woke and being aware
I'm two minutes in and this album's already classic
By 2021 I'll be everything I imagined
I made my own lane and I like it without the traffic
Most of y'all still got it in park like Jurassic
But my challenge is neck
So as I walk through this valley filled with shadows and death
I walk to the land that was promised to me
I may be lost as a man but my spirit is free
Welcome to exile, we're the one's they left out
So walk with your chest out and never put your head down
And walk to the land that Yahweh promised to you
Never let a man kill your dreams, follow the truth
As I rally the troops
This is for my little brothers who been looking up to me ever since childhood youth
This the album I envisioned I would write since I was eight years old
It's crazy now vibing out in the booth
So let the credits roll 'cause this movie gon' be incredible
The story starts with a baby as the legend goes
Born into slavery so mama made a sacrifice
Float the boy down the river to find a better life
As faith would have it, that baby would reach the palace
Raised to raise a child that's a prince and a man a valor
But he was unaware of his ancestral balance
The boy that was born in slavery, to those slaves he became the master
One day he met the Master who spoke and told him, "I need you"
"To go back to your land, I chose you to free my people"
And though he felt like he was incapable of the task
He went from wrecks to riches and then riches to wrecks
I know you know the story of the Exodus
I am like a modern-day Moses with my penmanship
So I tell the world is you're feeling like you still in your chains
I promise you are not the only one that's feeling this way
I told the devil, "let me people go"
And what am I gon' do about it? I don't even know, yeah
I'm just a kid tryna find my way to Canaan
'Cause I'm tired of the lies and learning this world will never satisfy
Everything I have, I just built off hustle
From "why" to "why not" like a spin off Russell
Success is like a picture and we got all of the pieces
I just work words together like a jigsaw puzzle
I think I debted this beat, no lawyers involved
My people follow me, they loyal no matter the cost
So as you follow me, prepare for toil and loss
This just the intro so lets not spoil it all, yeah
This just the intro so lets not spoil it all
Welcome to exile

Remind everyone about these things, and command them in God’s presence to stop fighting over words. Such arguments are useless, and they can ruin those who hear them

1 John 5:12-13 "He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life."

"For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit,"

John 14:6 "Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (NKJV, NIV)

1 John 2:22-23 "Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. (26) "These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you."
