Trinity featuring Louis Logic and L-Fudge
Jedi Mind Tricks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I metamorph phrases to glaciers
Have 'em come together in liquid stages
Then turn down the temperature and have 'em frozen into a solid foundation
Now added to that this well produced amazement
The crash is enough, to have the world tipped off it's axis a notch
It'll take the likes of, Jedi Minds to construct new longitude lines
In order to get around but now, you're askin' for too much
I'm like an alternative source of energy like, electricity generators
Separators of the wack rap, to the world reknownst individuals
Played in deuce parts life's nara-rators
Rhyme gladiators, is what we're referred as
Food for thoughts tooken offa ya plate instead ya serve thrash
Ikon and Logic serve as my accomplices
And bring our own form of trinity to show y'all onto this
Rhyme patterns come across as astonishing
So I have the right to feel myself to the point of genetelia fondlin'
[Hook]
We the three emcees that rock that shit
Pimpin' talk and jump and knock that shit
"Louis Logic, L-L-Fudge, Ikon the verbal hologram"
[Verse 2: Louis Logic]
I spread around me a viral infectious faculties
Applied chiropractically so rappers cannot come back to me
Simply outta respect, or suffer the consequence
The effect of which is that of absent father neglect
Wreakin' havoc, on egos speakin' magic
Castin' the curse on fashion emcees for region fabric
Send 'em wandering through the labyrinth
As far as cuttin' careers short on mics
I'm what the NYPD is to entrapment
The epitomy of have been, yet schooled
Engineers peep the structure of my mind
Now they wonder how the math went
L was made to ascend, which is evident by my descent
Spreadin' east to west like European settlements
Sequence, but even, I'm captured
Self destructive explosive devices reactin' from my mind is everlastin'
Which makes me a Trojan horse of sorts
Drainin' ya plasma until ya rhythm section hold the contorts
While snatchin' a arm in this sport
Drove off on ya squarely, then the warden report
And the single bullet theory
Hook (x2)
[Verse 3: Ikon the Verbal Hologram]
You fuck wid me you won't survive
Ikon been live since eighty five
Mine'll still have a carat that's tragical crystallized
Hit them guys, in they eyes wid fuckin' shrapnel
Bomb they castle, set fire until they trapped in
Rap colossal, run rappers who wanna battle
Hologram wid two bad hands force you to grapple
Evil wraps you, reverse time and bring diseases
Christians will worship Allah and Muslims will worship Jesus
Kill all ya leaders, wid my savage lyrical thesis
Rip out my fuckin' heart and eat it before I'm defeated
The one who seen it, on the throne was in a forcefield
You'll get tossed and feel lost like holy god feel
Raw deal, rappers decipher that skism
Followed Solomon and brought him in at ya baptism
[Hook]
The lyrics of Jedi Mind Tricks's song Trinity include a clever wordplay and metaphors that showcase the rappers' skills in constructing rap verses. L-Fudge's verse talks about his ability to manipulate language and turn it into a solid foundation that is impressive enough to tip the world off its axis. The verse also mentions the rapper's alternative source of energy and how he and his accomplices, Logic and Ikon, serve as a trinity bringing a new form of rap to the listeners. Louis Logic's verse talks about how he causes havoc on the egos of other rappers and refers to himself as a Trojan Horse that can drain your plasma until your rhythm section holds contorts. Ikon's verse includes a powerful threat to those who challenge him and uses a savage lyrical thesis that talks about killing leaders, worshipping different gods, and bringing diseases through reverse time.

Drove off on ya squarely, then the warden report
I ditched other rappers and left them behind, then reported my victory
And the single bullet theory
A reference to JFK's assassination theory, meaning that my excellence in rap is undeniable
You fuck wid me you won't survive
You don't mess with me and stay alive
Ikon been live since eighty five
I have been making exceptional rap music since 1985
Mine'll still have a carat that's tragical crystallized
My artistry is still pure and unadulterated like a crystal
Hit them guys, in they eyes wid fuckin' shrapnel
I attack other rappers directly and intensely
Bomb they castle, set fire until they trapped in
I destroy other rappers' castles and trap them in the fire
Rap colossal, run rappers who wanna battle
I'm a giant in the rap scene and I defeat other rappers who challenge me
Hologram wid two bad hands force you to grapple
My holographic image threatens and intimidates other rappers
Evil wraps you, reverse time and bring diseases
My evil thoughts wrap around you and bring back old, negative memories or experiences
Christians will worship Allah and Muslims will worship Jesus
I imagine a world where major religions could change and coexist together
Kill all ya leaders, wid my savage lyrical thesis
I have powerful rhymes that can bring down and destroy even the strongest leaders
Rip out my fuckin' heart and eat it before I'm defeated
I will never be defeated in battle or killed, even if it meant someone had to rip out and eat my heart
The one who seen it, on the throne was in a forcefield
An image of me as king or ruler who is untouchable
You'll get tossed and feel lost like holy god feel
I will destroy and leave other rappers feeling lost and powerless
Raw deal, rappers decipher that skism
I give other rappers an unfair deal and they are unable to overcome my genius
Followed Solomon and brought him in at ya baptism
I reference the Bible and my exceptional skill by likening myself to Solomon, who brought wisdom and wealth
We the three emcees that rock that shit
We are the best rappers in the game
Pimpin' talk and jump and knock that shit
We are confident in our artistry and able to talk and perform impressively
"Louis Logic, L-L-Fudge, Ikon the verbal hologram"
These are our unique and impressive rapping names

One of the best rap songs ever made. The beat alone is insane, but L fudge destroys his verse.
Shame most hip hop heads of today probably haven't heard this this song.
As of today this song is 18 years old.

Have 'em come together in liquid stages
Then turn down the temperature and have 'em frozen into a solid foundation
Now added to that this well produced amazement
The crash is enough, to have the world tipped off it's axis a nudge
It'll take the likes of, Jedi Minds to construct new longitude lines
In order to get around but now, you're askin' for too much
Our minds put together

Rhyme gladiators, is what we're referred as
Food for thoughts tooken offa ya plate instead you're served trash
Ikon and Logic serve as my accomplices
And bring our own form of trinity to show y'all onto this
Rhyme patterns come across as astonishing
So I have all right to feel myself to the point of genetalial fondlin'
Hook
We the three emcees that rock that shit
Pick your 12 inch up and knock that shit
"Louis Logic, L-L-Fudge, Ikon the verbal hologram"
Louis Logic
I spread a Rhyme via viral infectious faculties
Applied chiropractically so rappers cannot come back to me
Simply outta respect, or suffer the consequence
The effect of which is that of absent father neglect
Wreakin' havoc, on egos speakin' magic
Castin' the curse on fashion emcees Parisian fabric
Send 'em wandering through the labyrinth
As far as cuttin' careers short on mics
I'm what the NYPD is to entrapment
Epitome of half-bent, yet schooled
Engineers peep the structure of my mind
Now they wonder how the math went
L was made to ascend, which is evident by my descent
Spreadin' east to west like European settlements
Sequence, but even, I'm captured
Self-destructive explosive devices react before my mind is ever mastered
Which makes me a Trojan horse of sorts
Drainin' your plasma till your rhythm section hardly contorts
My stats in the orators sport
Draw more foolish queries, than the Warren Report
And the single bullet theory
Hook x2
Ikon the Verbal Hologram
You fuck with me and won't survive
Ikon been live since eighty five
Monosyllabic havoc that’s tragical crystalized
Hit them guys, in they eyes with fuckin' shrapnel
Bomb they castle, set fire unto they chapel
Wrap my lasso, 'round rappers who wanna battle
Hologram with two bare hands crush you to gravel
Evil raps'll, reverse time and bring diseases
Christians will worship Allah and Muslims will worship Jesus
Kill all ya leaders, with my savage lyrical thesis
Rip out my fuckin' heart and eat it before I'm defeated
The one who's seated, on the throne within a forcefield
Ya'll get tossed and feel lost like Holden Caulfield
Raw deal, rappers decipher that schism
Followed Solomon and prodded him into baptism.
