Krizz Kaliko Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mayday, mayday, mayday!
My name is Krizz Kaliko
I'm totally alone out here
Well,if there's maybe just one of you left
If anybodies out there,anybody..please...help!

This music game here is in a state of emergency
All about currency, wackness reoccurring with urgency
Can't take it any more
Getting too old, mouth piece just too cold
It's getting me swole
I need to occupy hip-hop like it's my concubine
'Cause I'm the nigga said that I gotta be the breaker,one
Tell Rittz to pull the trigger, all them niggas is done
If I miss then all the hits you can name under the sun
It's a trick and a list on how music is done
Tell man don't light me up
Tell the weed people light me up
CD don't hype me up
YouTube fans like me up
Too loose man, tighten up
Don't need to a freshman, I'm fresh no yes men
Rap 'til I can't breathe, let me catch my breath and
Industry needs epinephrine
Pastor what you see better get the reverend
Rap,Overseas but I rep midwestern
Krizz the bees knees so I guess the best, and
Me I can't see with any depth perception
MCs believe in me for question
It's for the S.O.S. to you
And oh,so 'F' you too when I won't step to you again
And I'mma hold my breath for you to stop these checks
Commin' in and these train wreck so many men
Try to save it try to stay connected resurrected
And they're expecting me to win
One of hip-hop's lost a few legends
I'm holding a grudge until the end

[Chorus]
Hollering Mayday
Anybody can you hear me?
Yeah,me
Why do they mistreat us save us
Aimless bastards leave us shameless
By the time we're rich and famous
All our art will be forsaken
While you're waiting sides are taken
Nonsense they just keep on makin'
While are last breath we are taken
We don't want our heartbeats just to stop...stop
Stop

They know me on the internet
They don't wanna see me on a magazine cover
Half of these rap barrels never seen struggle
I've been fighting all my life but never Lebanese brother
Now I finally made it, everyone wanna see us struggle
Be subtle to these indusrties suckas,please
F**k 'em i can barely afford to eat supper
Now you tellin me to word it out,but then
And over years we huslte
Makin music,and then people wanna eat a piece of it
F**k you in the stab back,and ya wack rap
You suck,you suck,he sucks too
They rap,he's wack,she rap,freeze that
Skillin them,but you an MC,whats new
Just treat me,you should go to college
You could join the army,you could be a barber
You can be anything you wanna be,but not a rap artist
Your lyrics ain't cuttin it,you suckas just performers
Sorry to inform ya but you mad and wanna battle me
When I'm Mr. on one try to keep it calm,but
Every time I log on,the world starts
Seein but you never see the side of me we armored?
The dramas as worse as the rappers are
Fans say they try to be spectacular
The next minute we talkin bout how wack you are
Its no wonder why I always wanna smack someone
I need a ratchet,one,abracadabra,gone
Your sh*t is passed beyond bad it scratches crome
You need to practice some,i hear ya rap and yawn
That bullsh*t I heard you spit, you'll never have this one
Bullsh*t music f**ked this game up
You should be embarassed,you should be ashamed of
Ever trying to rap I think it's time to change up
Go to Krizz Kaliko as it goes,hollerin

[Chorus]

Horror flick, you should start with the sequel
Peephole, what I saw to deceive you
I’m the doctor that walks in and greets you
And serve you a smile like I’m all for the people
Meanwhile I’m the wrong one to speak to
To hell with a park all my dogs will delete you
The bars are illegal and all this is lethal
It’s Conrad Murray when he walk in and greet you
I sharpen the needles, let it rewind
Badder flow, that’ll mess up your mind
Got a Kaliko, got a Tech and a N9ne
And more weapons then everyone on this record combined
And that’s strange
Cause I seem so nice, I seen your wife
No better yet again, I seen her twice
She needed flights, I got ‘em when I seen the price
And let her roll with me like she had some green to dice
I know it’s been a while since I sold at platinum too
A million and a million and-a-half of you
You tell me I’m the rapper you was rappin’ to
I have you lookin’ like a mummy when they rappin’ you
Forget about my face with a mask of you
You better leave space like a NASA crew
I didn’t have dollars, now I have a few
And now they look at my garage and tell me that’s a zoo
Is that a Jaguar?
Of course it is, I purchased it because the corpse’ll fit
And this trunk is bigger than the Porsche’s is
They say I changed, well I call it metamorphosis
Fast lane, get the hell up outta my lane
Your brain will never be as quick as my brain
And the people will only kill ya for your time frame
But I got a bullet that’ll get within your mind frame





[Chorus]

Nonsense they just keep on makin'
The industry continues to produce nonsensical and mediocre music.


While are last breath we are taken
Even in our final moments, the music industry exploits and takes advantage of us.


We don't want our heartbeats just to stop... stop
The artists do not want to lose their passion and love for music.


Stop
The singer reiterates the need for the negative and harmful actions to cease.


Mayday, mayday, mayday!
This is an urgent call for help and attention.


My name is Krizz Kaliko
The artist identifies himself as Krizz Kaliko.


I'm totally alone out here
The artist feels isolated and unsupported.


Well, if there's maybe just one of you left
The singer hopes that there is still someone who can offer assistance.


If anybodies out there, anybody..please...help!
The singer desperately appeals for help from anyone who might be listening.

Mayday, mayday, mayday!
My name is Krizz Kaliko
I'm totally alone here
Well, maybe just one of few left
If anybody's out there, anybody -- please, help!

[Verse 1: Krizz Kaliko]
This music game here is in a state of emergency
All about currency, wackness reoccurring with urgency
Can't take it any more
Maybe I'm getting too old, mouth piece just too cold
It's getting me swole
I need to occupy hip-hop like it's my concubine
But I'm the nigga so that mean I gotta be the bigger one
Tell Rittz to pull the trigger all them niggas is done
If I miss then all the hits you can name under the sun
It's a trick and how they doing this, music is done
Tell man don't mic me up
Tell the weed people light me up
Your CD don't hype me up
YouTube fans like me up
You too loose man, tighten up
I don't need to be a Freshman, I'm fresh, no yes men
Rap 'til I can't breathe let me catch my breath and
Industry needs Epinephrine
Pastor what you see better get the reverend
Rapping overseas but I rap Midwestern
Krizz the bee's knees so I guess the best in
Me I gets deeper than your depth perception
MCs believe in me and there's no question
This is my S.O.S. to you and also FU too
And I won't step to you again
And I'mma hold my breath for you to stop these checks
Comin' to these train wrecks of many men
Try to save it try to stay connected resurrected
Never expecting me to win
One of hip-hop's last few legends
I'm holding a grudge until the end

[Hook]
Hollering "Mayday!"
Anybody can you hear me?
Yeah, me
Why do they mistreat us, save us
Aimless bastards leave us, shameless
By the time we're rich and famous
All our art will be forsaken
While you're waiting sides are taken
Nonsense they just keep on makin'
While our last breath we are takin'
We don't want our heartbeats just to stop - stop - stop

[Verse 2: Rittz]
They love me on the internet
But they don't wanna see me on no magazine cover
Half of these wack rappers never see struggle
I've been fighting all my life and never let my knees buckle
Now I finally made it everybody wanna seem stuck up
Me suck up to the industry suckas
Please fuck ‘em I can barely afford to eat supper
Now you telling me the work that I put in and all the years we hustled
Makin' music now somebody wanna eat a piece of it
Fuck you and your snap back and your wack rap
You suck, you suck, he sucks too
They rap he’s wack; She raps? Freeze — That’s killing me, but your an MC, what’s new?
Just shoot me
You should go to college
You could join the army
You could be a barber
You can be anything you wanna be but not a rap artist
Your lyrics ain't cutting it, you suck as a performer
Sorry to inform ya
What you mad and wanna battle me you gonna need some armor
I try to keep it calm but, every time I log on to WorldStar I see a bunch of shit
I know is gonna piss me off more
The comments are worse than the rappers are
Fans say that you're the best, spectacular
The next minute they talking about how wack you are
It's no wonder why I always wanna smack someone
I need a magic wand, abracadabra gone, your shit is past beyond bad
It's trash it's scum you need to practice some
I hear you rap and yawn
That bullshit I heard you spit will never have its run
Bullshit music fucked this game up
You should be embarrassed you should be ashamed of
Ever trying to rap I think it's time to change up
Rittz and Krizz Kaliko, adios

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Chamillionaire]
Here we go now
Horror flick, you should start with the sequel
Peephole, what I saw to deceive you
I’m the doctor that walks in and greets you
And serve you a smile like I’m all for the people
Meanwhile I’m the wrong one to speak to
To hell with a bark or my dogs will delete you
The bars are illegal and all this is lethal
It’s Conrad Murray when he walk in and greet you
I sharpen the needles, let it rewind
Badder flow, that’ll mess up your mind
Got a Kaliko, got a Tech and a N9ne
And more weapons then everyone on this record combined
And that’s strange
Cause I seem so nice, I seen your wife
No better yet, I seen her twice
She needed flights, I got ‘em when I seen the price
And let her roll with me like she had some green to dice
I know it’s been a while since I sold a platinum too
A million and a million-and-a-half of you
You tell me I’m the rapper you was rappin’ to
I have you lookin’ like a mummy when they wrappin’ you
Don't be up with my face when I'm asking you
You better leave space like a NASA crew
I didn’t have dollars, now I have a few
And now they look at my garage and tell me that’s a zoo
Is that a Jaguar?
Of course it is, I purchased it because the corpse’ll fit
And this trunk is bigger than the Porsche’s is
They say I changed, well I call it metamorphosis
Fast lane, get the hell up outta my lane
Your brain will never be as quick as my brain
Advil will only cure you for a time frame
But I got a bullet that’ll get rid of your migraine

Chamillionaire absolutely murders this in every way!! "I got a kalico, I got a tech and a 9, and more weapons than everyone on this record combined and thats STRANGGGEEE!!" ^S^

nwo

Damn, this song just doesn't get old. Get's me going, especially in the morning on my way to work.

DA710NLY

hell ya

Ajay the Artist

This is hands down the best collab made from stange music. Chamil is slept on too much but that man kills so many rappers, I appreciate this Krizz!

Pink Sky

God I remember when the album first dropped. I was all over it, that saying who wouldn't like to see it all live? I think it would be amazing

WishfulCreation

Damn. Best song I've heard in a long ass time..was listenin' to a Rittz playlist and this song took me out of my fallout 4 trance to take a hit, and then figure out the name of this song. Straight fire. I keep saying I need to listen to more Krizz, now seems like a good time to start lol

LDV Jeetza

Man, I though i'd never hear Chamillionaire on a song again. He brought it though so I was impressed.

YourPalHDee

+LDV Jeetza I used to literally only jam Cham and Tech, hoping for a collabo some day. This track will do.

Koii yhonze

Tryanna catch me ridin dirty

Blake Revis
