Kill Screen
Jean Grae Lyrics

This is rebel shit
This song is on a different level and not for the mainstream.

Got polyglots, who'll molly whop you til yo body pop
There are highly skilled people on this track who will beat you up with their words.

I'm never sick, when my temperature drop, it's 7 up
I'm always strong and don't get sick, but when I do, I just drink 7 up.

105.6 hell, praise the rock
When I have a fever, it feels like I'm in hell, but I still praise the music.

I ain't a savior, just your neighbor like amazing Peter
I'm not here to save anyone, I'm just your neighbor, like Spider-man's alter ego Peter Parker.

Minus the spider bite, the webs, the aunt and uncle neither
I'm like Peter Parker, but without the superhero powers and tragic backstory.

But save the reasoning, the need to tuck the dynamite
Don't bother trying to reason with me, I'll just blow up on you.

To even up the nonbelievers
I'm here to prove myself to those who don't believe in me.

Man humble season was cool, sure
Being humble used to be a good thing, I guess.

But now I'm seeing North Shore faces, are y'all sure
I'm seeing a lot of fake people from the North Shore, are you really sure about them?

Well turn around and walk four paces
If you're not sure, then turn around and walk away.

I'll walk forth five, y'all 86'ed in all cases
I'll keep going forward, but you'll be left behind in all scenarios.

I'm the figure 8 sideways, always, ageless
I keep moving forward in a figure-eight pattern, timeless and never getting old.

Y'all in the club aimless, blind, spades shit
You're all wandering aimlessly in the club, playing a game you don't understand.

My time and space mix, record a rhyme on spaceships
I transcend time and space, recording my rhymes even while traveling through outer space.

You way behind like you caught a ride on a slave ship
You're way behind on this track, like you're still stuck on a slave ship.

I'm the modern anomaly, brazen Amelie, faceless
I'm a unique and unexpected presence, like the character Amelie, but also anonymous.

Representing the basement, raised up, cage less
I represent the underground, where I was free to grow and develop without constraints.

Limitless, reminiscent of rapists
I have no limits, like a rapist who has no regard for boundaries.

Boundaries?
What are those?

Got none, rock, paper, shotgun
I have no boundaries, and will take you out with any means necessary.

Achtung, baby not an A.D.D 80's baby I'm not from
Watch out, I'm not an 80's baby with A.D.D, but I'm just as unstoppable.

Rated G catering eras, I was the type of New Yorker
I was a New Yorker who grew up in different times, before things got watered down and rated G.

Rhyming at night in the park and hiding a knife in hair and
I used to rap in the park at night, and even though my mom warned me, I still carried a weapon for protection.

Even though mama was careful, I would be fighting so often
My mom taught me to be careful, but I still got into fights all the time.

Finding the light in dark, was time and just life in the mirror
I had to find my own way out of darkness, and it took time and a lot of self-reflection.

Reflection infinite, Escher
My self-reflection is never-ending, like an M.C. Escher drawing.

In the end
Ultimately,

We r who we r uhhh'Ђ¦ Ke$ha
We are who we are, like the Ke$ha song.

Late night dive bar, sipping on a vesper
I'm in a dive bar late at night, drinking a classic James Bond cocktail.

I'm bond and the villain in one time bomb, test her
I'm like both James Bond and a villain, and I'm explosive.

Dressed mismatch like confederate soldiers
I like to wear clothes that don't match, like Confederate soldiers in the Civil War.

Told ya best to think fast, this level is over
I warned you to keep up, but you lost and the game is over.

I'm going for the kill screen, fistful of quarters
I'm trying to get the highest score possible, and have a lot of money to spend.

Billy Mitchell, I'm a fiend, jumping barrels, famous sauces
I'm a big fan of video game player Billy Mitchell, and I'm skilled at jumping obstacles and cooking sauces.

Was a preteen prodigy, a plethora of knowledge, I don't mean like Albert
I was a genius when I was young, and knew a lot of things, but not in the nerdy way like Albert Einstein.

Johnson
This line makes no sense on its own, but is likely a reference to someone named Johnson.

I'll never respect a comment from a novice
I don't have time for comments from people who don't know what they're talking about.

I'll never be just a common denominator, promise
I'm always going to stand out and be unique, I promise.

I was nominated flyest so you'll see I'll take us higher, the defiant one
I was named the coolest, so you'll see I will push us forward and be rebellious.

The phoenix from the fire, hell mouth leviathan
I'm like a phoenix rising from the ashes, a monster from hell, and a sea creature of great power.

I only get killed at the end of time
I'm so unstoppable that I can only be defeated at the very end of time itself.

So I'm buying some
So I'm buying some more time to live and grow stronger.

This is heavy metal
This song is powerful and intense, like a heavy metal track.

Ryerson
This line doesn't make sense on its own, but may be a reference to Ryerson University in Toronto.

Or Reitman & Mogel '81 either is right man
This line is likely a reference to the movie Stripes, which was directed by Ivan Reitman and written by Harold Ramis and Dan Goldberg.

My life spans eternal ever since I touched the mic stand
My legacy will endure forever, since the moment I first touched a microphone.

Put the mic in my right hand, left hook, goodnight man
When I hold the microphone, I'm unstoppable, like throwing a knockout punch with my left hand.

Rest good, hype man, jeannie take it easy like bikinis on some white sand
Rest in peace, my hype man, but for me, I'll keep going easy and carefree like someone relaxing on a beach.

Is on me
This is my responsibility.

I'm calm b, sipping on a zombie, Condй, Nast, no bath salts spilling
I'm calm and cool, drinking a cocktail called a zombie, with no worries like a wealthy person at Conde Nast, without the need for the dangerous drug bath salts.

I'm appealing to your class, laugh now get shot later with sedatives
I'm trying to be nice to you and appeal to your sense of humor, but if you cross me, I'll take you out with sleeper drugs.

I'll medicate to torture you some more so aww, you better live
I'll use medicine to make your suffering worse, so you better fight to stay alive.

Edifice I'm living in a world full of oedipus
I'm living in a world where everyone is trying to kill their own fathers, like Oedipus in Greek mythology.

It's all relative, melanin, nepotism
Everything is connected and has to do with race and family connections.

Tell the kids, hell is in, check the prisons
Tell the kids that hell is real and can be seen in the prison system.

I wanna teach particle physics business, just as a better business class, Syllabus rise up
I want to teach about particle physics and business, which can be combined as a better type of business education.

You wanna get your philistine thighs up
You want to be basic and conformist.

My abilities high as fuck
I'm extremely talented and skilled.

You still willing to try luck
Are you still willing to take a chance against me?

I wish I had guillotine garage doors
I want to have a dramatic and lethal way of closing my garage doors.

Mass carnage, barnyard parties, animals, carnivores
I want to have wild and violent parties, where animals and predators are free to roam and kill.

Trash, garbage, Skarsgaard hotties, mandibles, parting jaws
I want to have a scary and gross party, with attractive people and terrifying creatures.

Bleeding y'all dry of convictions... the art of war
I'm draining you of your beliefs and will to fight, and this is like an art form.
