Everybody Get Up
Rapture Ruckus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Invader, Volume 1
Tonight we can't stop this, we got this
Everybody get up and go rock this
Everybody get up
Tonight we gon' drop it, can't stop it
All across the globe
Welcome back to life
It's the return of the incredible hulk
Proceed with caution do not provoke
I spent my whole life on the edge of broke
Now 'bout to blow up in a plume of smoke
I don't know what you came here for
I don't believe that we've met before
But please proceed orderly to the dance floor
And DJ please play my track once more
Isn't this better than crystal meth?
Better than rotting your teeth till you got none left?
Better than a quick hit then hold your breath
And take one step, two steps closer to death?
So put down your pipes and come rock with us
Our sunglasses bigger than binoculars
Don't really know what people think is popular
But its clear by what you wear that you copy us
That Ruckus they industry made
Yo must be tripping on hater-ade
Twelve years in the game, I still ain't paid
I'll kidnap the DJ till my song gets played
So tonight you want a little bit of carefree living ha
Like the people on the screen at the cinema
Find a drunk girl who isn't even really into ya
To have sex with you in the back seat of your rental car
Is it even really fulfilling ya, or is it ultimately killing ya?
Has it given ya a virus, that'll wreck your balls faster than Miley Cyrus?
God ultimately knows whats up
That's why He doesn't really even want you up in that club
With ya bottle of bub, while you're twerkin' it up
Cause those men looking at you they ain't looking for love
So let me tell you what I've seen through my own eyes
A small portion of society we idolize
Put 'em on a pedestal and we buy their lies
Buy all their t-shirts and believe the lies
And then hide all the proof of the inconvenient truth
That future still belongs to the youth
Now step away from the mic and exit the booth
Some things in life that you just can't explain
Like who I was to who I became
That's why I just can't be here to entertain
Gotta speak my mind, and go against the grain
I'm the time bomb that you can't contain
I'm on the verge of clinically insane
The men in white suits they can't restrain me
In a straitjacket I'll dance in the rain
See I was born for so much more
Than this world had me believe before
And I got so much more in store
I'm a crank it up to a level that they can't ignore

But it's clear that you are copying our fashion style
That Ruckus they industry made
The music industry produced Rapture Ruckus
Yo must be tripping on hater-ade
You must be very jealous right now

I've been in the music industry for twelve years, but I'm still not rich
I'll kidnap the DJ till my song gets played
I'll do anything to make sure that the DJ plays my song
So tonight you want a little bit of carefree living ha
Tonight you want to enjoy life without any worries
Like the people on the screen at the cinema
Like the people in movies
Find a drunk girl who isn't even really into ya
Find a drunk girl who isn't really interested in you
To have sex with you in the back seat of your rental car
To have sex with you in the back seat of your rented car
Is it even really fulfilling ya, or is it ultimately killing ya?
Is this really making you happy, or is it destroying you?
Has it given ya a virus, that'll wreck your balls faster than Miley Cyrus?
Has it given you a sexually transmitted disease that will ruin your life faster than Miley Cyrus?
God ultimately knows whats up
God knows what's going on
That's why He doesn't really even want you up in that club
That's why God doesn't want you to go to clubs
With ya bottle of bub, while you're twerkin' it up
While you're dancing and drinking alcohol
Cause those men looking at you they ain't looking for love
Because those men looking at you aren't looking for love
So let me tell you what I've seen through my own eyes
Let me tell you what I've witnessed myself
A small portion of society we idolize
We admire a small group of people in society
Put 'em on a pedestal and we buy their lies
We put them on a high pedestal and believe their lies
Buy all their t-shirts and believe the lies
We buy all their merchandise and believe their lies
And then hide all the proof of the inconvenient truth
And then try to hide all the evidence that contradicts their lies
That future still belongs to the youth
The future still belongs to the younger generation
Now step away from the mic and exit the booth
Now it's time to stop recording music and leave the studio
Some things in life that you just can't explain
Some things in life are impossible to understand
Like who I was to who I became
Like how I used to be and who I've become
That's why I just can't be here to entertain
That's why I can't just be here to entertain people
Gotta speak my mind, and go against the grain
I have to speak my mind and challenge the norm
I'm the time bomb that you can't contain
I'm like a ticking time bomb that can't be controlled
I'm on the verge of clinically insane
I'm about to go crazy
The men in white suits they can't restrain me
Even the people in white coats can't control me
In a straitjacket I'll dance in the rain
Even if I'm restrained in a straitjacket, I'll still dance in the rain
See I was born for so much more
I was born to accomplish so much more in life
Than this world had me believe before
More than what the world led me to believe
And I got so much more in store
I have so much more to offer
I'm a crank it up to a level that they can't ignore
I'm going to take it to a level people can't ignore
