Hell's Messenger
Jedi Mind Tricks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I play everything real close to the chest
The two thousand and sixteen range rover is next
And I walk through the valley of death with no stress
Marvellous money to murder y'all, go bully on
Fifty dudes, parkside killers wear []
That's the glass table that I'm putting your medulla on
Black trees, black ski mask, black uniform
'Cause I understand that nothing in the world is a gift
Ain't no magic what I'm doin', ain't no merlin in this
The stupidity the reason Donald sterling exist
I was eating pills with Van Morrison in Gloria
At the Waldorf Astoria, called shorty up
If you're looking for a father figure, call Maury up
You a Dr. Seuss rapper, made the whole story up
Who the one that always gotta drink
That's me
Always getting thrown into the bank
That's me
Who the one that always holding on the hammers
That's me
Who run up in the club and go bananas
That's me
Who the one that always gotta drink
That's me
Always getting thrown into the bank
That's me
Who the one that always holding on the hammers
That's me
Who run up in the club and go bananas
That's me
Oyster perpetual and bottles of chandon
Everything you thought that existed is long gone
Waiting on an opium shipment from hong kong
Y'all approach to what we created is all wrong
Everything that we emulated are raw songs
Everything that y'all haven't made is in poor form
Ecw jerry lynn when he fought strong
You're an asshole masturbating on soft porn
No guns, iron deficiency, you anaemic
Audio heroin at your venus, my sunlight phoenix
Love the second the boss seen it
The route take longer but it's much more scenic
See, me and my brothers have been waiting for a while now
Giving you the time to get your wack ass style down
Matter fact I think we gon' have us a pow wow
Your guns go boom-boom, mines go baow baow
The quoted lyrics are from Jedi Mind Tricks' song "Hell's Messenger." The song's overall tone is confident, intimidating and aggressive as rapper Vinnie Paz boasts about his wealth, his weaponry, and his ability to navigate dangerous situations. He emphasizes his understanding of the fact that nothing in life is free and everything has a cost. He brags about the material possessions he has obtained, including a 2016 Range Rover and an Oyster Perpetual watch. He also threatens violence towards his enemies, using metaphorical language, such as "putting your medulla on a glass table." Throughout the song, he establishes himself as someone who can't be messed with.
The lyrics also include references to famous celebrities and cultural icons. Van Morrison is mentioned in relation to taking pills, and Dr. Seuss is referenced. Donald Sterling, the former owner of the LA Clippers who made racist comments, is criticized for his stupidity. Additionally, there are references to the professional wrestler Jerry Lynn and the professional wrestling promotion, Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW).
In summary, "Hell's Messenger" is an intense, boastful song that focuses on the rapper's wealth and ability to intimidate those who would challenge him, as well as references to pop culture and sports.

Actually, I think we should have a meeting to discuss this further
Your guns go boom-boom, mines go baow baow
My guns are superior and make a different, more impressive sound than yours

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
