The Game
JA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a new kid on the block, bitch I'm the new edition
Hot and fresh out the kitchen
I'm the remix to ignition
AinΚΌt no competition
This a lyrical exhibition
I been locking and loading, like a terrorist with this ammunition
I've been on my grind
With one thing on my mind
Switch the game up, feel this Starz Power, see me shine
Transform, optimize my prime
Royalty in my bloodline
I age like fine wine
Had a vision for this game, now it's time to redesign
It's finally my time
Bitch it's your curfew
'Bout to put all you wack rappers in a hurse too

I don't need to get all biblical to verse you
But I may just get on my Dumbledore and curse you
Abracadabra alaka-fuck you
This god fearing flow, got you praying I don't hurt you
I'mma just hit you with these bars, and leave your mind in a whirlpool
You be moaning like Myrtle
Got you running in circles
I've been on my grind, jumping over these hurdles
Now I be on top, missionary
Yes I'm a missionary
'Bout to fuck the game up
Break this Virgin, Mary

I've been on my grind
I've been on my grind
(Everybody came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game

I've been on my grind
(Everybody came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game

I've been on my grind
(Everybody came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game

I've been on my grind (I came to switch it up, came to fuck it up)
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game

You find gold in a mine
So I stay mining (minding) my own business
'Bout to make Mabala Noise
Cos my dreams are so Ambitious
So bare witness, to something so vicious
These bars are so sick, this entire verse is an illness
Gravity is my best friend, I just broke the laws of physics
I'mma float at the top
You gonΚΌ praise these godly lyrics
Well murder is a crime, so this is a verse of interest
That means you're the earwitness
So pay attention you bitches
Believing in JAS is quite superstitious
This flow so magical, might make atheists religious
I'mma son all you wack rappers, I even Father Christmas
See that was mental fitness
You may have just missed it
I said I Father Christmas
Which means, Christmas is my son
Which means my presence is gifted
Which means Jesus is my son
Everything I do is spiritually lifted
Which means you're gonna praise this flow
Cos Christ was depicted
And fuck Santa Clause, White bearded paedophilia
Sorry that was just a side note, I couldn't resist it

Ok fuck it let me get back with it
This cocaine flow got you addicted
Conflicted, convicted inhaling these lines
Will put you behind bars, get it?
It's 'bout time the climate change
This global warming verse got you heated

I've been on my grind
I've been on my grind
(Everybody came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game
(Came to switch it up, came to fuck it up) You be playing my game

I've been on my grind
