Go!
Madlib Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh you hard now? (HUH!) I laugh at that
I must be on Punk'd, where Ashton at?
Step up in the party with a plastic gat
Glock that I carry for the grab and snatch
Shine like the gym, untied tims
Bad bitch pulling on my limbs
Telling all her friends it's him! Feeling like a Don
Grab her by the hand and get a quickie in the john
We raise hell and make bail
And put illegal products on weight scales
Place a few phone calls and make sales
I pray to god my lifestyle escapes hell
Stoneface
Running my affairs at my own pace 'till my bankroll's straight
I want the muh'fuckin' icing and the whole cake
You just a crooked ass nigga trying to go straight

Get your pistols (Go... Go)
Launch your missile (Go... Go)
Settle your issues (Go... Go)
I got a feeling somebody's gonna die tonight
Get your pistols (Go... Go)
Launch your missile (Go... Go)
Settle your issues (Go... Go)
I got a feeling somebody's gonna die tonight
Verse 2: Guilty Simpson
You want lyrics? Try these fam
You a joke like Black Man, White Man and Chinese Man
In fact you're more like them Knock-Knock shits
Your temp's 98, you're not that sick
I spit venom on your favorite denim
I burn like the slugs that I'm spraying up in 'em
That's how it is everyday in the Mitten
Lay my verse, lay down and lay in the kitten
My hunger's intense
I'm from the underground coming under your fence
Patting on your pockets nigga come with the rent, a forfeit
It's not for the weak in heart, call quits
But desert eagle got a beak that'll make you get a body leak
Who got a beef? Get ate by piranha teeth
Yeah the click's like that, Move in packs and move them packs

Get your pistols (Go... Go)
Launch your missile (Go... Go)
Settle your issues (Go... Go)
I got a feeling somebody's gonna die tonight
Get your pistols (Go... Go)
Launch your missile (Go... Go)




Settle your issues (Go... Go)
I got a feeling somebody's gonna die tonight

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Madlib feat. Guilty Simpson's song "Go!" describe a dangerous and violent lifestyle. The singer, possibly Guilty Simpson, mocks someone who pretends to be tough by saying "Oh you hard now? (HUH!) I laugh at that, I must be on Punk'd, where Ashton at?" Then, he tells a story about going to a party, carrying a gun, and having sex in the bathroom with an attractive woman. He boasts about engaging in illegal activities, such as selling drugs and using illegal weapons, and prays that he will not go to hell for it. In the second verse, Guilty Simpson uses aggressive and vulgar language to describe his violent behavior, such as "I spit venom on your favorite denim, I burn like the slugs that I'm spraying up in 'em."


The song's chorus, which repeats the phrase "Get your pistols, launch your missile, settle your issues, I got a feeling somebody's gonna die tonight," creates a sense of tension and danger. The overall message of "Go!" is that the singer is willing to engage in violent behavior to protect himself, and that he expects others to do the same.

Mad Libs is a phrasal template word game which consists of one player prompting others for a list of words to substitute for blanks in a story before reading aloud. The game is frequently played as a party game or as a pastime.

Madlib is the sheets. Its up to the artist to fill in the blanks.
Just my interpretation of the producer

Leroy Brown

This is one of the hardest songs for 2008. Straight up! Guilty Simpson is one of the best upcoming rappers

Jay S.

This beat makes me wanna jump out my window and go tackle an 18 wheeler.

rrraawwwkk50

this song is so incredibly heavy and there isn't that much swearing in it. he's talkin' vivid and hard without sounding stupid, right the fuck on!

Odell Goodman-Bey

Madlib iz A Beast when it comes to beats. Guilty iz a monster on the Mic

MarkHaze

this would sound so sick as an intro to a GREAT dark movie.

clcproduction

Holy shit. This song just blew my mind. The production is pretty simple, but this stuff is so fucking raw.

arthur head

i used to say black thought was the most underrated rapper, but guilty has taken that belt..

Brenton Diggs

Listen 2 it everyday!!!!
