If I Get Locked Up
Funkmaster Flex Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One, two (yo, it's rolling?)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Dr. Dre up in here
Y'all know what this is
It's what you been waiting for
Funkmaster Flex, Big Kap
Def Jam Records giving it to you, baby
Yo Eminem, show these motherfuckers what time it is, baby
I used to be a lonely man, only mad
Until I got a million dollars
Shit, now if I only had some fucking hair
I'd pull it, faster than a bullet out of Tupac's chest
Before the ambulance came too late to do it
I'm trying to grow it back again, it was an accident
I had my back against a fan and chopped it off in Amsterdam
I hate the straight jacket, it ain't latching
They can't lock it so they stapled my hands to my pants pockets
The cell's padded and battered like someone else had it before me
And just kept throwing they fucking self at it
My head is aching, I'm dedicated to medication
But this med is taking too long to bring me to seditation (come on)
Anyway I got down with Dre (what up?)
The first man who taught me how the Glock sounded to spray
Running up and down the street screaming, "Fuck the Police"
When you still had your mother's fucking nipple stuck in your teeth (you fucking baby)
Became a role model after Colorado
Now all they do is follow me around and holler, "Bravo"
Hell yeah I punch my bitch and beat my kids in public
Suck my dick, bitch
I'm sick enough to fuck a man in his face, but I won't
'Cause you'll probably wanna stand in his place
So put a sock in it with your fake-ass Tupac image
You faggots ain't tough, you just get drunk and become talkative (wanna fight?)
I'm probably the akwardest alcoholic talking
Walking like a midget with a ladder in his back pocket
So when you see me on your block stumbling
Mumbling a bunch of dumb shit, like my drunk uncle does
I ain't buzzed, I'm just high on life
So why on earth would I need drugs when fly on kites?
Motherfucker, Slim Shady
(Dr. Dre) I'm drunk, pass the TEC
'Cause if I get locked up tonight
Then I might not come home tonight (keep it moving)
Off and on, Eminem it's on (ay)
Off and on, Dr. Dre it's on
'Cause if I get locked up tonight
Then I might not come home tonight (keep it moving)
Off and on, Eminem it's on (ay)
Off and on, Dr. Dre it's on
The whole entire world can sit and twirl like a whirling tire
I set a fucking girl on fire with a curling iron (ahh)
Psych, I'm just joking, for Christ sakes
Don't get so bent out of shape
'Cause I went out and raped six girlfriends
Some people just don't get it
But I won't let it upset me, 'cause they don't know better
They don't know what the fuck it's like to be so fed up
And fed so many uppers, you're down and won't get up
My mind's got a mind of it's own
Sometimes I can't find it at home
It hides in the stove (hello, where you at?)
Shit, talk about your brain being baked
My shit's still in the oven on four hundred and eighty degrees
Hailey Jade, Daddy loves you, baby
Don't ever tell me how to raise my daughter, fuck you, lady
You critics wanna criticize but couldn't visualize
Individuals lives through a criminal's eyes (fuck y'all)
The neighborhood that I grew up in, you could die for nothing
And Dirty Dozen watches over me, so try some dumb shit
I'll have a fucking man raped with a band-aid over his mouth
And shove his head in the fan blade
Don't ever tell me what I can or what I can't say
Or change 'cause of the age range of my fanbase
Like I give a fuck who's buying this shit
Quit fucking buying it, I'm tired bitch
I'm dying to quit
Hip Hop is universal now, it's so commercial now
It's like a circle full of circus clowns up in the circuit now
But now the white kids like it, so they tell me I can buy it
But as soon as I get on the mic, it's like the night get silent
Either that or booed, that's why I keep an attitude
And go to sleep with it and wake up with it every afternoon
I'm sick of being judged, fuck it, let me see a judge
I'll confess to every murder I committed since three years old
'Cause if I get locked up tonight
Then I might not come home tonight (keep it moving)
Off and on, Eminem it's on (ay)
Off and on, Dr. Dre it's on
Ay yo, fuck that
Turn that shit off
Let's get the fuck up out of here
You know how we do

Yo Eminem, show these motherfuckers what time it is, baby
Eminem is asked to impress with his skills
I used to be a lonely man, only mad
In the past, I was lonely and angry
Until I got a million dollars
But now I have wealth
Shit, now if I only had some fucking hair
If only I had hair
I'd pull it, faster than a bullet out of Tupac's chest
I'd be incredibly frustrated
Before the ambulance came too late to do it
Before help arrived too late
I'm trying to grow it back again, it was an accident
I'm attempting to regrow my hair after an incident
I had my back against a fan and chopped it off in Amsterdam
My hair was cut off accidentally by a fan in Amsterdam
I hate the straight jacket, it ain't latching
I despise feeling restricted and confined
They can't lock it so they stapled my hands to my pants pockets
They secured my hands to my pockets with staples
The cell's padded and battered like someone else had it before me
The cell is worn and damaged like it was used by someone else previously
And just kept throwing they fucking self at it
And they continuously threw themselves against it
My head is aching, I'm dedicated to medication
I have a headache, and I rely on medication
But this med is taking too long to bring me to seditation (come on)
But the medication is taking too long to calm me down
Anyway I got down with Dre (what up?)
Anyway, I collaborated with Dr. Dre
The first man who taught me how the Glock sounded to spray
He was the first to teach me about gunfire from a Glock
Running up and down the street screaming, 'Fuck the Police'
I used to protest loudly against law enforcement on the streets
When you still had your mother's fucking nipple stuck in your teeth (you fucking baby)
While you were still breastfeeding and immature
Became a role model after Colorado
I became a role model after a specific event in Colorado
Now all they do is follow me around and holler, 'Bravo'
Now people just follow me and praise me
Hell yeah I punch my bitch and beat my kids in public
I acknowledge that I engage in domestic violence
Suck my dick, bitch
I express vulgar disrespect towards someone
I'm sick enough to fuck a man in his face, but I won't
I have perverse thoughts but choose not to act on them
'Cause you'll probably wanna stand in his place
Because you might be attracted to him
So put a sock in it with your fake-ass Tupac image
Stop pretending to be like Tupac
You faggots ain't tough, you just get drunk and become talkative (wanna fight?)
You're not tough, just intoxicated and argumentative
I'm probably the akwardest alcoholic talking
I may be the most socially awkward drunk person
Walking like a midget with a ladder in his back pocket
Staggering and unstable like a short person with a ladder
So when you see me on your block stumbling
If you see me on your street, unsteady on my feet
Mumbling a bunch of dumb shit, like my drunk uncle does
Muttering nonsensical things, similar to how my drunk uncle behaves
I ain't buzzed, I'm just high on life
I'm not intoxicated, I'm simply enjoying life
So why on earth would I need drugs when fly on kites?
I don't need drugs when I can experience euphoria
Motherfucker, Slim Shady
Addressing oneself as Slim Shady
(Dr. Dre) I'm drunk, pass the TEC
Dr. Dre admits to being intoxicated and asks for a gun
'Cause if I get locked up tonight
In the event of my arrest tonight
Then I might not come home tonight (keep it moving)
There's a chance I won't return home tonight, so keep moving
Off and on, Eminem it's on (ay)
Eminem is here intermittently, it's his turn to perform
Off and on, Dr. Dre it's on
Dr. Dre is here intermittently, it's his turn to perform
The whole entire world can sit and twirl like a whirling tire
Everyone can spin around aimlessly like a tire
I set a fucking girl on fire with a curling iron (ahh)
I caused a girl's hair to catch fire with a hot curling iron
Psych, I'm just joking, for Christ sakes
It was a joke, for goodness' sake
Don't get so bent out of shape
Don't get so upset
'Cause I went out and raped six girlfriends
I didn't actually rape anyone, it's a provocative statement
Some people just don't get it
Some individuals fail to understand
But I won't let it upset me, 'cause they don't know better
I won't allow it to bother me, they're ignorant
They don't know what the fuck it's like to be so fed up
They can't comprehend how frustrated I am
And fed so many uppers, you're down and won't get up
Having consumed stimulant drugs, feeling down and unable to recover
My mind's got a mind of its own
My thoughts are unpredictable
Sometimes I can't find it at home
Occasionally, my mind feels lost
It hides in the stove (hello, where you at?)
It metaphorically hides in a place of warmth (seeking reassurance)
Shit, talk about your brain being baked
Talk about being mentally exhausted
My shit's still in the oven on four hundred and eighty degrees
Metaphorically, my thoughts are still cooking at a high temperature
Hailey Jade, Daddy loves you, baby
A message to Hailey Jade, expressing love as her father
Don't ever tell me how to raise my daughter, fuck you, lady
I refuse to accept criticism regarding the upbringing of my daughter
You critics wanna criticize but couldn't visualize
Critics want to judge and condemn without truly understanding
Individuals lives through a criminal's eyes (fuck y'all)
They don't understand the perspective of a criminal
The neighborhood that I grew up in, you could die for nothing
The neighborhood I came from was dangerous, life was cheap
And Dirty Dozen watches over me, so try some dumb shit
My crew, Dirty Dozen, protects me and discourages foolish behavior
I'll have a fucking man raped with a band-aid over his mouth
I would use extreme violence against someone, silencing them
And shove his head in the fan blade
And forcefully push his head into a fan's spinning blades
Don't ever tell me what I can or what I can't say
Don't dare impose restrictions on my speech
Or change 'cause of the age range of my fanbase
Or modify myself due to the age diversity of my fans
Like I give a fuck who's buying this shit
I don't care who is purchasing my music
Quit fucking buying it, I'm tired bitch
Stop buying my music, I'm exhausted
I'm dying to quit
I'm eager to retire
Hip Hop is universal now, it's so commercial now
Hip Hop is now global and highly commercialized
It's like a circle full of circus clowns up in the circuit now
It's filled with ridiculous and absurd individuals
But now the white kids like it, so they tell me I can buy it
Now that white kids enjoy it, they say I have permission to participate
But as soon as I get on the mic, it's like the night get silent
But once I start rapping, the audience becomes quiet
Either that or booed, that's why I keep an attitude
Either they're silent or they boo me, which is why I remain defensive
And go to sleep with it and wake up with it every afternoon
I carry my defensive attitude into the next day
I'm sick of being judged, fuck it, let me see a judge
I'm tired of being criticized, I dare someone to judge me
I'll confess to every murder I committed since three years old
I will confess to every murder I've supposedly committed since childhood
Ay yo, fuck that
Disregard that statement
Turn that shit off
Stop the music
Let's get the fuck up out of here
Let's leave immediately
You know how we do
You are aware of our typical behavior
