Run for Cover
Flipmode Squad Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got something for your motherfucking ass, check it out
Rampage I'm coming express through your chest
In the Lex-GS, stop talking BS
My watch is still flooded
850 for the budget
I'm Rugged, cats get gutted, rhyme then stab
You's a crab, I take mines off the top like Fab
Hit you with a jab for the 98
Number one in billboard with the triangle shape
Flipmode on every mix tape, watch you cats get scrape
Rampage Alexander the great
What!
Better run for cover for it's too late
What!
You know we got it locked way out of state
What!
Now whose the chick to come ice the cake
Put it through everybody on my license plate (Aight)
Ripping MC's then got a rap chick fiending (fiending)
Celine type creaming (creaming)
Make them rappers poof like them crackers did Keenen
Meaning I run that, Waiting on mine like I'm the LL comeback
Wack rappers crawled out from holes
Now you souped 'cause you slithered up the todem pole
Flipmode Squad affiliate of of time-warner
Send all you punks back to decorate the corner
Better run for cover for it's too late
What!
You know we got it locked way out of state
What!
Now Baby Sham take the safety off hold
There's a lot of fake cats that jump in their mans Rolls
Come to my show with these fake wallos
Turqoise hid invoiced with plans to blow
See me backstage with the gauge upholds my pants leg
Hand made suits contracts is in the briefcase
Life Negotiate so when I split these pies
I'm sexing your dime
Flow for Flow batteling rhymes
Talking some crime
Now I gotta split your time (What!What!)
Get your shit pushed back like these seats recline (yeah)
Better run for cover for it's too late
What!
You know we got it locked way out of state
What!
Now Baby Sham take the safety off hold
Sliff Star throw on my scully tipping my brim (uh huh)
Stand on the Street corner scuffing up my Timbs
Take off my jacket
Pack the four fith 'cause a racket (that's right)
Freaky fella
Jimmy swaggert (wha')
Kill a sucka
Brothers had it (ha)
Contradiction crucifixion
False Leadership Richard Nixon
Bouncing and switching the lanes all up in the Range
Here's a fifty for twenty dollars of gas gimme my change!
Better run for cover for it's too late
What!
You know we got it locked way out of state
What!
Now Baby Sham take the safety off hold
Better run for cover for it's too late
What!
You know we got it locked way out of state
What!
Now Baby Sham take the safety off hold
Hey it's the worlds famous international
Sinner irrational (ha)
Nigga who dance with wolves
Masterful bash skulls
Crack axles peel out in black fords
Splatter brains on dash ports
Start anthrax wars
See's cast like task force die on a cross (ha)
July 4th blow your hands off (Blaow!)
Special delivery
Jam 'cause with ghetto misery when I'm killabrese of canine
Last name heard it through the grapevine
Killing your blood millineum bug
United States divide with hate crimes
Roll snake eyes
In the concrete jungle of hell
While Lord Have stays Super like the son of Jor-el
What!
You know we got it locked way out of state
What!
Better Run for cover for it's too late
What!
You know we got it locked way out of state
What!
I be the last nigga
The quick to bust your ass niggas
Do anything in this world to get the cash niggas
I might even get mad and even slash niggas
Rob them and get away in a car and crash niggas
What!'s the world gonna do when I drop the smash nigga
Iron all in your face don't make me pull the trigga
Another reason for me to have to poor my own swigga
Thought I was posing for word up but a fed took my picture
Surgeon general I represent the underneath
The ask for shit beef
The worlds greatest fucking thief
Brick layer hardcore smash your front teeth
Wilding it straight giving their mother mad grief
Rob a nigga strip him down leave him in his briefs
Do so much dirt the priest asked me to turn another leaf
Made the priest flip change his whole belief
Started wildin' in the club with them niggas starting beef
Act fool
The lyrics of Flipmode Squad's song "Run For Cover" is about how they are going to take over the rap game and dominate it by calling out fake rappers who are trying to act tough. Rampage's verse talks about his success in the music industry and how he takes his money off the top like Fab. He also boasts about being number one in Billboard with a triangle shape and how Flipmode is on every mixtape. He uses his rhymes to attack cats and take them down. Then the chorus comes in where they tell everyone to run for cover and that it's too late because they got the rap game locked up. They are too far ahead that no one could ever catch up to them.
The next verse is by Baby Sham who calls out fake rappers who try to look tough by driving in their mans Rolls and fake wallows. He talks about his success in life and how he makes contracts in his briefcase for his hand-made suits. Baby Sham's verse is about having success in life and how he made it to the totem pole. He also talks about battling rhymes and splitting pies. After the chorus, Spliff Star comes in with his verse about his outfit of scully and Timbs. He takes off his jacket to pack four-fifths to start a racket against suckas. Spliff talks about the contradiction of false leadership and how he switches lanes in his Range rover. He also talks about slavery, and the concrete jungle of hell, and how the world cannot stop him. The song ends with another chorus where they tell everyone to run for cover because Flipmode Squad is taking over the rap game.
