K-Rino Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, a lightning bolt strikes in the air, yeah, finally it's here
'Cause y'all are the judge, the day of judgment finally is near
In your eye I see a tear, and it's remindin' me of fear
Rap's been dead so long, so stop denyin' what you feel

Dis payback for the fact that y'all ain't tryin' to keep it real
Grim reaper that we call revenge right beside ya in your ear
He's saying your time expired, time is finally due it's clear
Not sober mind is a weak mind and he's buyin' you a beer

Cheers, time for a toast
(Your heart's beatin', your heart's beatin')
To the haters that hate you the most
(Your heart's beatin')
And the friends that pretend to be your folks
(Your heart's beatin')
This is what revenge sounds like
(Your heart's beatin', your heart's beatin')
I hear your heart beatin', keep runnin' your mouth, yeah

Your mouth runnin' ahead of you, your mouth do what your legs should do
Let me walk to the edge with you, jump off of it, it
It sounds like your ready to, 'cause these rappers are terrible
And the game is unbearable but I'ma fix, fix

This feeling that's dead in you got your brains like a vegetable
Use the pro tools and tell 'em to edit it, it
Switch to somethin' that's better fool, turn it up what you better do
When I'm bringing revenge to you it sounds like this, this, this

Somebody call the doctor
(You're not breathin', you're not breathin')
They ain't gonna be well after this one right here
You're not breathin'
(You're not breathin', you're not breathin')
Just make sure they learn the name
(You're not breathin')
That's about to be runnin' the game
(You're not breathin')
Tell 'em the name, Chamillitary Mayne

Shoulda heard what I was tellin' you, I don't do what the jealous do
I don't hate when a nigga make it, 'cause I'm smarter and better too
You run when they tell you to but I move when I'm ready to
If you stop to take a breather, see that I'm light years ahead of you

y'all musta thought y'all wasn't gonna have to see me or somethin'
(I'm not leavin', I'm not leavin')
Houston, Texas, I'm here now
(I'm not leavin', I'm not leavin')
Anybody gotta problem?
(I'm not leavin')
Speak now or forever hold your peace
(I'm not leavin')
I ain't think so, yeah

The feeling's great 'cause they pay me, I expect some hatred so daily
I'm sticking the middle finger up like the feeling's mutual baby
The franchise and they say that the future can't really trade me
In Houston, I'm number one like I'm in the place of McGrady

But keep on pacing it baby, the full truth has arrived
If they ask you about you nigga, you fin' to lie
They ask me about me and hear a truthful reply
They said they seem none better than me so hear the truth wit'cha eyes

Better go take over befo' it rains
'Cause I'd hate to say that I told you Mayne
I know, I know what you're gonna say
But have it your way

I know these haters is gonna hate
And I see that angry look on your face
Tell 'em sound of revenge is on the way
This isn't your day

Lookin' for the truth, they ask me where have you been?
Where have you been? Where have you been?
Getting ready for these haters, I got somethin' for them
Somethin' for them, somethin' for them

You're real quiet 'til you think you hear a sound in the wind
Sound in the wind, sound in the wind
You turn around 'cause you think you hear that sound once again
You hear that?
(Yeah what's that?)
That's The Sound of Revenge

See, I told you
That's what happens when you get on his bad side




Chamillitary Mayne
And now for The Sound of Revenge

Could someone tell me the lyrics from 1:10 to 1:15 and what they mean? The words aren't consistent on different lyrics websites and what's there doesn't make sense to me and I'm usually pretty good at comprehending K's stuff. The rest of the song does, it's just this part.

Rap Genius: Electrovision that rest of molecular texture in this irregular secular mechanism.

Urban Lyrics: Electrovision that rest on the molecular texture of this irregular section of mechanism.

Lyrics Mania: Electrovision that rest of electoral texture of this irregular section of mechanism.

If someone gives me a good answer then I'll annotate the line on Rap Genius and edit it if necessary.

Love the song besides.

@MoralityFitness

K-rino lyrics are on another level ' whenever i listen to music like this it puts a smile on my face. this man is really creative ' i never heard anyone else spit on his level. put this man in any one room with one of your favorite artist ' i'm sure he would dominate. k-rino said he wouldn't lose a Rap battle if he was battling himself in the mirror ' come on lol.

@rloco80

The Delivery of Flow and Lyricism in this song is phenomenal.

@shortbus1127

I've listened to Hip Hop my entire life, and can break down all Emcee's writing techniques to a mathematical point. Some are basic, some are good, some are great. I've always listened to every rapper, and studied all their art, and I have a list of great emcee's and its HUGE, BUT K-RINO IS BY FAR KILLING ALL RAPPERS IN ALMOST ALL CATEGORIES OF EMCEEIN! K-Rino and other great mc's I wish could take over the industry! (DREAMING)

@bdubb1331

I feel the same way

@valvaliantthor102

K is the greatest, his birthright is to be King of Hip-Hop
