Gunz For Hire Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am a man who makes deals for a living
My eyes are everywhere
That means, you can't move a finger without me knowing it
Do you understand, not a fucking finger
Now you can stay calm and accept my deal
Or accept the consequences
Plata O Plomo
Now you can stay calm and accept my deal
Or accept the consequences
So what's it gonna be
Plata O Plomo
Now you can stay calm and accept my deal
Or accept the consequences
So what's it gonna be
Plata O Plomo
The lyrics of Gunz For Hire's song "Plata O Plomo" exude an atmosphere of dominance and power play. The opening lines set the stage for a deal-making prowess that the singer possesses. He is a man who is constantly aware of everything that goes on around him, hence he can control the situations he finds himself in. The phrase "My eyes are everywhere" reinforces the notion that the singer is all-knowing and has the upper hand. He goes on to give his audience a choice, either to accept his offer, or face the consequences. The phrase "Plata O Plomo" (meaning "silver or lead" in Spanish) is a reference to the ultimatum often given by drug lords to their enemies. The choice is either to take a bribe (silver), or be killed (lead).
Throughout the song, the phrase "Now you can stay calm and accept my deal, Or accept the consequences" is repeated, creating a sense of pressure and inevitability. The singer's tone is firm and assertive, and the use of the word "fucking" in the second line underscores the seriousness of the situation.
Overall, "Plata O Plomo" is a reminder of the dark underbelly of the world of power and control. The lyrics suggest that in certain circles, freedom of choice is an illusion, and it is better to go along with the people in charge if one wants to stay alive.
