Butcher Knife Bloodbath
Jedi Mind Tricks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jus Allah, Verse 1

I am entertained by the pain
Moth to a flame
jarring over your charred remains
Hard to explain to the sane
Tarzan's and Jane's
Smaller brains
The disdained
Harder to obtain, refrain
Unguard your gains
All things obtained are in vein
I am overjoyed to destroy
boys will be boys
uncoy deploy noisy toys
everyday, array of dismay
dead pray on display
let the slain lay where they may
Tell 'em how to ban their fellow man
settle, tell your land
quell your well in advanced plans
grace your acquaintances with your complaints
stated on the page letter
awaiting the greatest ever
better late then never.
better you in a crate
one state lesser
one day deader in red shaded decor
savvyt




(Chorus)

(I give it to you real raw), you try to tackle me you couldn't make me fall, forget the microphone you need the iron we squeeze, (play around and you fall of the deep end)

Vinnie Paz, Verse 2

The bullet is quicker than lightspeed, gates of midian, nightbreed
Any one fucking around with Vinnie he might bleed
Hell is hot and that's where the homing device lead
The body or the head only thing my knife need
I don't need to speak Vinnie's philosophy known
Y'all are weak and talk sloppy like Bobby Giacone
Blood shed and war anti-christ the prophecy shown
I tried to tell you that the Bush's were possibly cloned
You should know about distortions of lessons in college
About the water-fuel cell, the suppression of knowledge
I don't call that motherfuckin professor a scholar
I call him a profiteering liar obsessed with the dollar
Why we in Iran if all that we want is Osama?
Why we in a jam when all that we want is Obama?
Bush had you thinkin we at war because he asked God




Then blew up two fuckin buildings in our backyard
Blat blat blat

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jedi Mind Tricks's song "Butcher Knife Bloodbath" are dark and disturbing, with the two verses showcasing different perspectives on violence and destruction. Jus Allah begins the song by proclaiming his love for pain and destruction, describing himself as a "moth to a flame" drawn to the charred remains of his enemy. He talks about the joy he gets from destroying others and encourages his listeners to embrace violence and force as tools for survival. He also critiques the pursuit of material gain, claiming that everything obtained is in vain and that it's better to be dead than to live a life of meaningless consumption.


Vinnie Paz's verse takes a more political tone, critiquing the Bush administration and the military-industrial complex. He questions the motives behind the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, wondering why the US is targeting these countries and why there seems to be a constant state of war. He also critiques the education system and the suppression of knowledge, claiming that the education system is more concerned with profits than with teaching truth. The chorus of the song warns against getting too close to these violent and destructive forces, lest you fall off the deep end and get consumed by their destructive energy.


Overall, the song paints a grim picture of humanity's capacity for violence and destruction, and warns against getting drawn into these dark tendencies.

Hell yea

Richard Ruth

One of the most intricate tracks crafted by Vinnie.

His true poetry is found in the under appreciated songs.

Poet_Laureate Infinity1333

This album is legit the most unique piece of production in the post mumble era, round about this time we began to see more and more trash mc’s pile up like ocean garbage. Damn shame, but long live jmt!

Raul

This is pre-mumble rap dude. That's excellent if you just discovered JMT but much of their work is old, this album included

Poet_Laureate Infinity1333

Raul Yh bro I think I worded that wrong what I meant was before mumble rap spawned this was the pinnacle of jmt for me.. I’ve been s fan since the psycho social album also so to see rap deviate so far from this is quite sad.

cdot

@Poet_Laureate Infinity1333 for real. the main stream blows.

Lightbulb Head

Vinnie Paz spits a verse so true

FDG

In 40 seconds Vinnie and Stoupe easily outperformed over 98% of Hip Hop duos
