UNIVERSE
La Coka Nostra ft. Vinnie Paz Lyrics

Stonehearted digital tiger-stripe
We are ruthless, like a digital version of a powerful tiger.

A whole squadron invisible sniper-type
Our group is like a team of snipers, deadly and undetectable.

We living the life just like a movie
Our lives may seem glamorous, but it's not always the case.

But our reality bite you in half
Our harsh reality can be brutal and unforgiving.

Like a great white bites though your raft
It's like being attacked by a ferocious shark that tears apart your raft.

This ain't no cartoon, you're shark food
This is not a make-believe scenario, you're in actual danger of being devoured.

Hurry up, swim for the shore
You better act fast and save yourself.

Or wrestle with jaws if you think you're built for this war
Or you can try to fight, but you better be prepared for a tough battle.

I was born from a long line of cast iron survivalists
Survival is part of my heritage and upbringing.

Street-wise grime combined with the mind of a scientist
I have a sharp, street-smart mind that's also analytical and precise.

And a heart of granite sharper than diamonds to scar the planet
My heart is hard and strong, capable of causing great damage and leaving a mark on the world.

Inscripted within the star-patterns how the God planned it
Everything is predestined, and the universe follows a divine plan.

We were put here for a good reason
We are here for a purpose, and there's a higher meaning to our existence.

From the mountain tops to the highest cypress hills
Our message extends to all corners of the world, from the highest peaks to the deepest valleys.

So the entire world sees it
Our goal is to share our message with the world.

We put our pain into these words
Our experiences and hardships are reflected in our lyrics.

Breathe life into these bangers
We infuse our songs with emotion and energy.

Y'all relate to every verse and feel our anger
Our lyrics resonate with our audience, and they understand our frustrations and anger.

Feel the love and hate, feel every emotion that is possible
Our music elicits a range of emotions that our listeners can feel deeply.

Shock you like a suicidal explosion in a hospital
Our music can be shocking and intense, like an explosion in a hospital (where one's supposed to be safe).

Rock you, shocking every vital nerve and killer instinct
Our music can hit you at your core, activating all your natural impulses and instincts.

Fighting every homicidal urge that's living within
Our music can help us resist our violent inclinations and tendencies.

Every individual cell and molecule in your body
Our music can affect you at the smallest level, even down to the cellular level.

Every fiber in your trigger finger shooting the shotty
Our music can even affect how you shoot a gun, how you hold and aim it.

That's the turning point
This is the crucial moment that can change everything.

In other words, the point of no return infernally
This represents a decision or a path that can never be undone, leading to eternal consequences.

I've been told that my soul will burn for eternity
I've been warned that there will be serious consequences for my actions, and I will suffer eternally.

Answer to a higher power
Ultimately, we are all accountable to a higher force, whether it be a deity, karma, or some other concept.

Truth, as far as I'm concerned?
In my opinion, the truth is subjective and open to interpretation.

You can't tell me nothing motherfucker
Don't try to convince me otherwise, I won't listen.

It's my universe
I control my own life and destiny, and I am responsible for my own actions and decisions.

In this world there's only one way out
In the end, there is only one way to leave this world, and it's through death.

Close your eyes then
It's a peaceful and natural process that you can accept.

You're in the lion's den in a state of zazen
You're in a dangerous and uncertain situation, but you can find harmony through meditation and stillness.

The black hearse is occupied, watch the tires spin
The hearse is ready to take the dead body away, and the wheels turn symbolizing the cycle of life and death.

An old man with a whiskey-nose and high chin
The old man overseeing the scene is a seasoned and hardened figure who's seen it all.

Looks across the scene
He takes in the situation and observes the aftermath.

It's a scene he seen before
This is a familiar sight for him, and he's become desensitized to it.

Since a teen he's seen the war
He's been exposed to violence from a young age, and it's become a part of his life.

Bullets careening off the walls
The bullets are ricocheting off the walls, causing chaos and destruction.

To the car that's speeding off
The car is seen fleeing the scene, trying to escape the violence.

Blood on the asphalt
Evidence of the violence and bloodshed is left on the street.

Families dress in black for the son they had the mask for
Family members and loved ones mourn and grieve for the loss of someone who lived a double life.

The young man inside the casket this time?
This time, it's a young man who's lost his life.

That's George
The deceased person's name is George.

'far as the old man can see, he got what he asked for
From the old man's perspective, George brought his own fate upon himself.

He knew him as a youngin and he schooled him to the game
The old man had a relationship with George and taught him the ways of the street.

His tutelage had brung him ‘til he grew to live the same
George learned from the old man and eventually became a powerful figure in the criminal underworld.

As an older gangster gentleman but barely in his 30s
Despite his relatively young age, George had already established himself as a respected figure in the criminal world.

The whole city was burning, but Georgie kept earning
The city was in chaos and turmoil, but George continued to make money and gain power.

He was ambitious, too ambitious
George's ambition and drive may have been his downfall.

Man the kid was so determined
George was determined and focused on achieving his goals.

Now he's laying in the casket while the priest offers a sermon
George is now dead, and a ceremony is taking place to honor his life.

He let his future rock inside the cradle of fate
George's future was determined by his own choices and actions, and he had to accept the consequences.

Made a deal with the enemy, that was a fatal mistake
George's decision to work with his rivals or enemies led to his eventual demise.

When you're a rat you better watch what you say to a snake
If you betray someone, you have to be careful how you act around them, or they might seek revenge.

Or your family will stand around you while you lay at your wake
Your loved ones will have to mourn your death if you make dangerous choices and go down a risky path.

See the neighborhood's violent
The community is plagued with violence and danger.

Mother is silent with loneliness
The mother of the deceased is speechless with grief and isolation.

He fills the priest's coffers and he offers his condolences
The old man gives money to the priest and sends his condolences, perhaps as an act of redemption.

Gets inside his Lincon
The old man drives away in his car, ready to leave the scene behind.

While you presume the worst...
As outsiders to the situation, we may assume the worst about the events that took place.

You can't tell me nothing young man:
I won't listen to the opinions or judgments of others.

This is my universe
I have control over my own life and fate, and my actions have consequences.

The universe is ruled by the strong
Those who are strong and powerful have the ability to control and influence the world around them.

The strong prey on the weak
Those who are stronger may take advantage of those who are less powerful.

The sky's owned by the dawn
The new day and its possibilities belong to those who are able to seize them.

(This is a lesson, so follow me
These lyrics serve as a lesson or piece of advice for those listening.

Let's travel at magnificent speeds around the universe)
Let's explore the world and all its possibilities together.
