Jedi Mind Tricks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I squeeze coal in my hand and then it converts to ice
My whole world is cold blood it's a serpent's life
I was fighting in Damascus with a Persian knife
I burn a motherfucker head, I'm in Hell's Kitchen
Fuck a cop, fuck a bitch, fucking Mel Gibson
The new wakata on the street smell different
I was rocking Jordan 7s while you sell Pippens
So talking to y'all is just like talking to cops
Call me boxcutter Pazzi cause I walk with the ox
And though he ain't here physically I walk with my pops
Yeah but physically I walk with the Glock
And if an officer is shooting then an officer's shot
I'm a fat guinea motherfucker, walk with a bop
And it ain't never been a question if he soft or he not
[Chorus]
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
Kill or be killed counter-attack
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
Kill or be killed counter-attack
All I think about is crime, I forgot to buy a valentine
I'm out my motherfucking mind in a crowded line
Full-time murderer, no time to buy furniture
Rather re-clip burners than clip through the circular
Rather be a burglar than flip burgers
Any stitch at work will make me wanna commit murder
I am all thugs and drug friends, screams and blood streams
Guns that can sink submarines, clubs and love scenes
Thugs in hot tubs, queens and umpteens, Vodka, Rock of Love
Angels and adversaries, Raspberry Absolut
Hash and grass, V8 splash, passion fruit
Life is a battle, I'm out of sight with dim lighters around
Knife and a frown, just another night on the town
Endless horrors of manslaughter days in a row
Leave you all dressed up, no place to go
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
'Cause I gotta kill or be killed counter-attack
Kill or be killed counter-attack

I Who Have Nothing - Dee Daniels - Lyrics
I, I who have nothing
And I, I who have no one
Adore you and want you so
I'm just a no one
With nothing to give you but, oh
I love you
She, she buys you diamonds
Bright, bright sparkling diamonds
But believe me, when I say
She can give you the world
But she'll never love you the way
Oh
I love you
She can take you any place she wants
To fancy clubs and restaurants
But I can only watch you with
My nose pressed up against the window pane
Oh
I, I who have nothing
And I, I who have no one
Must watch you go dancing by
Wrapped in the arms of somebody else
When darling, it's I
Who loves you
Musical Interlude
She can take you any place she wants
To fancy clubs and restaurants
But I can only watch you with
My nose pressed up against the window pane
Oh
I, I who have nothing
And I, I who have no one
Must watch you go dancing by
Wrapped in the arms of somebody else
When darling, it's I
I who really loves you
I really
Really love you
Love you
