Jedi Mind Tricks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nobody gets out alive until the cops arrive
Deadly job but somebody got to do it
? more scared then Godzilla
? on your block
Nobody gets out alive until the cops arrive
Deadly job but somebody got to do it
Style is wild like pitbulls trapped in cages
[Verse 1: Crypt the Warchild]
Every rhyme I write is 25 to life
Every aven you write it's the even deserve a mic
Crossing International borders with a bomb threat
You muthafuckas aven't even left your block yet
You's a bitch, you's a ho, heres a prom dress
You wanna try to box with God its no contest
So keep on thinking this shit is sweet
Imma start a sandstorm and put you under the Middle East
You got it fucked up homie, ive been a beast
Reptilian tongue and my skin is deep
Rumor has it they say im thrown off
Until they they limbs is everywhere, wigs is blown off
[Verse 2: Jus Allah]
Is that the cast of a deathmask?
Is that water in a red glass?
Why, I'd thought you'd never ask, its as legend has
There's a method to the mad, its direct and fast
Disconnected from the guest its a second-class
I have left a trail of debt, checks in the mail
Heads or tails death prevails, never fails
I will never get derailed that tip is stale
I will never get to Hell that ship has sailed
I'm refined, mastermind after cash and kind
Hand me gunshot pantomime, axe to grind
Pass into the sublime have a laxing time
Have a glass of wine have your last act of kind?
[Verse 3: Planetary]
Everything they say is irrelevant
Im the element of rap that define pure elegance
Elevate my resident picking them up
Im in the hood rocking JMT shit in the truck
Not I against I, cause I don't sleep on my stomach
I rock Heavy Metal Kings, and watch the barrel of the gun twitch
You talking dumb shit, hootin' and hollering
I left the cannon and wait for the bazooka to swallow em
Imma do this regardless of them, I'm the original
Dirty Rotten Scoundrel surrounding your pinnacle
Block the perimeter; I hit you with the fade away
Got a bullet with your name on it for a rainy day
[Verse 4: Doap Nixon]
So many Days
So many Nights
So much money got fucked up
So many fights
So many niggas got knuckled down for no reason
So many cowards got guns but it's the squeeze em
Yeah, its just the way it is
I finally got a wiz it's the ready to bless the sun with a hundred kids
So I can fall back rocking a red straw hat
Sour Diesel already showed you Im all that
I wont stop tryna ride on you assholes
First sweet sales donated to Daschle
You think Im bugging right
But it's the zeros in my bank account that got me saying
[Verse 5: Vinnie Paz]
My Brain (?????) sky is
My heart doesn't know what die is
Piromaniac rap Vinnie start fires
Only an ignorant thought ignored sirus??
And that's why the enemy lost they caught virus??
Where I'm from gods earth 85ers
Y'all ain't got heat underneath, it's all wires
I'm on some champagne?? shit with bonfires??
My whole team animal thug and born liars
You ain't aware of what any the twelve tribes is
You is a devil who tell the enemy where god is
*Braatttt*
And that's how we get down

The lyrics of Jedi Mind Tricks' song "Seance Of Shamans" are mainly about violence, power, and strength. The verses are rapped by different members of the Jedi Mind Tricks crew, each with their distinct flow and subject matter, but all sharing a common theme of dominance and control.
The first verse by Crypt the Warchild speaks about his lyrical prowess and the power he wields with his words. He compares his rhymes to a life sentence and challenges anyone to try and outdo him. He also mentions crossing international borders and having a reptilian tongue, suggesting that he has the ability to manipulate things on a global scale.
Jus Allah's verse is more abstract, with references to death masks, red glasses filled with water, and a "method to the mad." He suggests that he is a mastermind who always prevails in the face of death and never gets derailed. He talks about leaving a trail of debt and having an axe to grind, implying that he seeks revenge on those who have wronged him.
Planetary's verse is more concrete, with references to his music and his street cred. He talks about rocking JMT (Jedi Mind Tricks) gear in the hood and watching the barrel of a gun twitch. He also mentions leaving a bullet with someone's name on it for a rainy day.
Doap Nixon's verse is a mix of personal anecdotes and braggadocio. He talks about the many fights and misunderstandings he's had but also mentions having a lot of money and being ready to "bless the sun with a hundred kids." He also references Sweet Sales, an infamous drug kingpin, and donates to Daschle, who could be a reference to former Senator Tom Daschle.
Finally, Vinnie Paz's verse talks about his power and his sense of himself as a god on earth. He mentions starting fires with his lyrics and being immune to viruses. He also calls out those who lack his heat and electricity and those who don't understand the twelve tribes, suggesting that he is part of an elite group with special knowledge.
Overall, the song is a display of verbal skill and a celebration of strength and power, with each rapper bringing their distinct flavor to the track.
