Homicidal
Magic Affair Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Maniac? the name is Swift
Homicidal the title, to take a life as a gift
Cold crush, rhyme, rhyme, lady, scratch, and even music maker
Bounce an' MC on the court like a ball player
Proven by the lyrics on the mike as I extend the cut
Making music, as the girls move and shale their butts
Suckers with the heart, try to battle even cheat me
They can't compete, nor they defeat, or even beat me
With the silly dictionary rhymes they spond
When the mike catches fire, it will melt and bend
Then I'll use the court as a whip, as I teach this lesson
I'll whipe the knowledga in your head, so you can't stop guessing
Who's the best MC upon the MIC, SWIFT
Executed lyrics by me, will leave you violated
Make your body get the shiversq, eyes dilated
Suckers perpetrate, and try to dis me
That's why the suckers watching me like TV
Survival of the fittest, is very vital
Got my weapon on auto, boy, I'm homicidal

Dangerous, mike packing and ill
My poetry is my ammo, and it's ready to kill
I'll put your head out with a quickness if we battle you know
I'll make you wish you were in prison, sitting on death row
Chrome plated, highly polished, and I'm running the joint
I penetrate, like a hollow point
Homicidal, is what I feel in my mind
I have 100 ways to kill you while I'm saying this rhyme
Perpetrators, can't even compare to this
I cock the hammer, pull the trigger and dis
Sucker MCs biting rhymes like these
I'll point my weapon in your face and then I'll start to squeeze
Your mind get's nervous, your face is cold sweating
because a butt-kickings, what you're getting
I lived a rough life from kid to a man
When I think of things I've done I say "Damn !"
What's the deal, you know it's real
Always feeling illy ill, my mind just says kill
I'm never wrong, then again I'm not right ya'll
Menace I'm homicidal

Swift the name, dissin' MCs the game,
To dis a sucker MC is the claim of my fame
I like to grabthem by the face, punching them in the neck
Burning up their stale rhymes, 'till they give me respect
Cold destruction is a code, causing rapper's commotion
Setting world on fire like a TNT explosion
Rhyme, not a song, I neither sang nor I sung
I can cut a man to shreds, or break a tree with my tongue
Got my face on a poster, wanted dead or alive
Reward tall "duckies" four thousand or five
If you want to take the "duckies" wish yourself a good luck
'cause I kill in cold bood and I don't give a fuck
Come along or bring your posse, play brave and the bold
I'll be rocking, cold shocking, 'till I'm 80 years old
Proud and I'm black, giving squeezers no slack
I'm even deadlier then PCP caine and crack
I'm the mercenary, killing punks at will
I hate it when the brothers are acting ill




It's time to get busy, and fight ya'll
Word, I'm homicidal

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Magic Affair's song "Homicidal" is a description of violence and aggression in the context of rap. The rapper, Swift, portrays himself as a maniacal homicidal figure with his lyrics being his ammo ready to kill. He speaks of his ability to take life as a gift and how he can kill in 100 ways while rapping. The lyrics are full of violent images and death referencing, from the rhyme scheme, which Swift is known to extend to his fellow rappers, to the use of the microphone as a weapon. The lyrics also suggest that Swift takes pleasure in causing death, and he is not afraid to take on anyone who crosses his path; he is the hunter who has defeated his prey in battle.


Swift's lyrics in "Homicidal" were controversial and considered a glorification of violence, especially during the time frame of its release as gang violence and rap were colliding in the African American Community. It is also important to note that just because a rapper is telling a story of violence or aggression in their music does not mean they are endorsing it in real life. Therefore, some criticized the song's lyrics for being too graphical, superfluous and glorifying murder.

Привет из России! Мне 45 лет и я вырос на этой музыке! Вроде жизнь удалась, а всё равно, как накатишь коньячку, скучаешь по нашему счастливому детству!

LifeformIsHumanoid

Брат, не скажу, что жизнь удалась, живу не богато. Но эта музыка всегда была моей! Этот рэп самый мощный! Естьб ещё Down Low и C-Block. И Dr.Dre из Америки. Вот и все, кто меня восхищал из того времени. Сам рэпер, но не смог добиться уважения за рамками своего города. Бабок нет. Такие дела, брат.

Victor Aurel

Albumul a fost tare atunci.
Si e bun si azi.
Doar pt. Cei cu creier.

Lean Over 40 For Men

Love the flow of this

Andrius Stasiukynas

This is the only one rap style song , that I like. Magic Affair was one of the best the 90's Eurodance bands!

Mohamed Zien Academy

you've brought me back to my school days, 1994

Victor Costin

Muzica se intelege cu sufletul si mintea.
Cand tot ce ai e un ciocan toate lucrurile ti se par cuie.

Roy Mastin

Nice 😢

Emmanuel SAINT-MARC
