When All Light Dies
Jedi Mind Tricks Lyrics

Yeah, Jedi Mind
Introducing Jedi Mind

Vinnie Pazienza, the Enemy of Mankind
Vinnie Pazienza presents himself as a threat to people

Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell
Acknowledging the existence of heaven and hell but inverting their hierarchies

Horrorcore, yeah, walk with me
The genre of horrorcore is an invitation to join the artist's dark mindset

I pop a pill and zone, my voice alone 'll fuckin' kill your bones
The artist uses drugs to enhance his music and has a powerful vocal presence

The AR-15 beam leave you still as stone
The artist uses violent imagery to assert his dominance and lethality

I'm workin' twenty-four-seven while you chill at home
The artist is dedicated to his craft and doesn't take breaks

I'm on the block with my people where the killers roam
The artist is in touch with the streets and the violence that happens there

I'm in a killer zone, where police can trap me
The artist is aware of the dangers of being a criminal and being pursued by the police

We in the last days, only darkness passes
The artist believes in the apocalyptic end of the world and sees darkness everywhere

No more pure air, only bloody money ashes
The artist sees the world corrupted by money and violence

Yeah, you need to recognize the God is sick
The artist suggests that God is displeased with humanity and its actions

'Cause I was born inside of Egypt near the Gaza Strip
The artist uses his upbringing to legitimize his authority and experience

Don't make me cock the fifth, and put the flame to him
The artist threatens to use his gun if provoked

And thug it out like the Israeli's and Iranian's
The artist references the conflict between Israel and Iran as an example of violence

Remember when I put the pen to pad
The artist recalls his early days of writing music

When I heard "Style Wars" by Lakim Shabazz
The artist is influenced by Lakim Shabazz's music and style

Then in the lab, everything was constructed with Stoupe
The artist gives credit to Stoupe for producing his music

And y'all know that no one fuckin' with us as a group
The artist believes his group is superior to others

When All the Light goes out where will you be?
A question about the end of the world and people's preparedness for it

When the darkness comes what will you see?
A question about what will happen during the apocalypse

I'm a cannibal corpse, .38 snub splatter your thoughts
The artist continues to use violent and grotesque imagination

Peel your skin off of your body like animal cloth
The artist suggests that violence is natural and animalistic

I'm the reason for the Carthage in Hannibal's force
The artist claims responsibility for historical events

I'm the reason for the carnage in parable's lost
The artist sees poetry and literature as violent and bloody

And I'll put the heater right where your lungs at
The artist threatens to shoot someone in the chest

And none of y'all would be around if I could bring Pun back
The artist pays tribute to the late rapper Big Pun

You want the horrorcore Vinnie? He brung that
The artist reminds the audience of his genre and style

Along with the .44 militant gun rap
The artist emphasizes his connection to guns and violence

I break bread with the brothers I trust
The artist is loyal to his friends and allies

'Cause I know that if I'm ever in some trouble, they bust
The artist trusts his friends to help him in times of need

Could never be us, we too raw for the rap now
The artist believes he is too unique and violent for mainstream rap

Anybody with a tape recorder can rap now
The artist criticizes the accessibility of music production and distribution

I pull a twelve gauge shotty, you back down
The artist repeats his violent threat against someone

And then the last thing you hear is the gat sound
The artist suggests his gun will be the last thing someone hears before they die

From the city where they framed Mumia
The artist references Mumia Abu-Jamal, a political activist who was controversially convicted of murder

We gonna break him out, run up with them flames and heaters
The artist threatens to use violence to free Mumia Abu-Jamal

I'm a biological terrorist
The artist sees himself as a threat to humanity

If you ain't been in war, then you don't know what terror is
The artist suggests that true terror can only be experienced in war

You try to help people but do nothin' like therapists
The artist criticizes people who don't take direct action to help others

It's basic rules to the game, cousin, you never snitch
The artist emphasizes the importance of loyalty and silence in the criminal world

Or you can see the type of lead that my Beretta spits
The artist threatens to shoot or kill someone who snitches

Or send you through the torture chamber and behead the bitch
The artist uses violent imagery to demonstrate his power and cruelty

Yeah, I'll put your body to the blades and choppers
The artist threatens to dismember someone's body

And teach you about the disruptive symbol of chakra's
The artist references Hinduism to suggest his spiritual knowledge and power

If you believe what they tellin' you, the beast and them won
The artist believes that there is a corrupt and evil force controlling society

That's why I speak about survival and need for a gun
The artist suggests that violence is necessary for survival in a corrupt world

I stand for what them thugs is reppin'
The artist identifies with and represents the criminal lifestyle

But they don't know the government is usin' drugs as weapons
The artist suggests that the government is involved in drug trafficking or production

And drug injections, was taught by the prophets before
The artist sees drug use as a spiritual or mystical practice

About the cavalry of shadowy profits of war
The artist suggests that there are hidden and powerful forces behind wars and conflicts

It's hard of grip, so I spit it at different degrees
The artist acknowledges that his lyrics are difficult to understand or accept

But the inner earth holds more water then seas
The artist suggests a mysterious and unexplained fact to end the song

Who's gonna save you When All the Lights go out
A repeated question about the end of the world and personal responsibility

It's time to reconcile, how you gonna go, how you gonna go?
A call to action or reflection on one's own beliefs and actions

When the Lights go out, When the Lights go out
A repeated reference to the apocalypse or end of the world

When the Lights go out, how you gonna go? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
A final emphasis on personal responsibility and unknown fate in the face of catastrophe
