Kid.W.I.K. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Got a down bitch, hit a lick on the Cutlass
Yeah my last chick was a trick for the substance
And now I'm stacking brick after brick of abundance
The chain hang fully
Step to a lame, not the chain gang bully
On the mic, I'm Sully (On the mic, I'm Sully)
And you best act right, 'cause I might get gully
Bullets hit your body and your body hits the ground
Simple mathematics, easy calculation
The only place you're safe is the cell at the station (Cell at the station)
Yes, you know I put the might on
And if you push my buttons, then I'm quick to turn the fight on
I'm ruckus, see it come true, bullets fly to cut you
Rob you off the beat and leave you screaming yelling Fuck you
Rob you off the beat and leave you screaming yelling Fuck you
Burn hot on the cuts like firewater
Wildin' in the booth just to get you niggas trying harder
Easy catch, while I pull into ya town rich
You niggas getting jelly letting secrets off in Crown Vics
I was never one to let the Ruger pop off
But stick ya fuckin' forehead in my busi' blow ya top off
I'll steal ya fuckin' knock-offs (Gimme that!)
And keep my real stones in a safe
Then proceed to use ya rocks to bust the lock off
It won't work
'Cause real diamonds don't bust
Like a nigga with no nuts, and no dick (Damn)
I second guess every word he say, 'cause at the end of the day
Everybody know you never supposed to trust no bitch (Who)
Testing is the muthafuckin' mic on
I flip the script and turn the muthafucking lights off
Testing is the muthafuckin' mic on
I flip the script and turn the muthafucking lights off
In the lyrics of Kid.W.I.K.'s song "Mic Check," the artist starts by expressing focus and determination with the line "Eyes on the prize, ash turns to justice," suggesting a transformation or progression towards achieving their goals. The reference to having a loyal partner who helped in a successful theft conveys a sense of loyalty and unity in their actions. The artist reflects on past relationships that were based on materialistic gains rather than genuine connection, indicating a shift towards accumulating wealth and abundance through their own efforts.
The reference to "chain hang fully" and not being a bully in a chain gang context can be interpreted as the artist asserting their presence and skill in the music industry without resorting to intimidation or negativity. The reference to being like "Sully" on the mic implies a confident and skilled demeanor, warning others to approach with respect or face consequences. The imagery of bullets hitting the body and the ground emphasizes the harsh reality of violence and its aftermath, hinting at a brutal and unforgiving world where actions have severe consequences.
The artist continues to assert their dominance and prowess, suggesting a readiness to retaliate against any perceived threats or challenges. The lyrics convey a sense of confidence and power, with references to using force and aggression to protect oneself and maintain control. The mention of stealing knock-offs and using real stones to bust locks off symbolizes a disregard for imitation or deception, choosing instead to rely on authenticity and strength to overcome obstacles.
The lyrics conclude with a warning against trusting blindly, cautioning against deception and manipulation in relationships or interactions. The artist flips the script and turns off the lights, symbolizing a shift in power dynamics and a move towards asserting authority and control. Overall, the song "Mic Check" by Kid.W.I.K. conveys themes of determination, resilience, and self-preservation in the face of challenges, with a focus on authenticity, integrity, and the importance of staying true to oneself in a competitive and often treacherous environment.
