Caught Up
Royal Flush Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Some people get caught up
Some try and get rolled up
Some people... [x9]
[Ol' Dirty Bastard]
Ol' Dirty kickin' your ass..
The things that you learnt in class is trash
You broken motherfuckers, shut the fuck up
I do it 'til you bad luck and head gets plucked
The only thing on your brain is to give me this cash
Stay out of my business 'cause I'm takin' your tash
This struggle on the ming, non of why'all bring
I got why'all in.. flavouring
[Chorus x2]
[Mack 10]
I seem to fuck about a bitch or a crooked ass cop
I'm a burst that, it's dealin', the hustle don't stop
I got stones and hairone, ecstasy and weed
Meth, imphetamine, sherm, sticks and speed
Pay it high wid, dope is all I got to give
I'm a ghetto nigga dog so I get it how I live
Got money, lock 'em off, fuckers still I got drama
Got two strike dog and five baby mamas
With new strain I maintain, I'm ready and willin'
to keep change on niggas brains to keep the blood spillin'
I hate it but it ain't complicated, it's real simple
Fuck with me and know you get a hole in your temple
I ain't gonna play you niggas, I'ma slay you niggas
Don't take but a few figures and a few new triggers
Mack 10 livin' legend, every West coast rhymin'
Straight hoo bangin' gangsta and all rhymin' sodom, it's bad
[Chorus x2]
[Royal Flush]
Shut up, let me talk for a minute, a lot of bull shit on my mind
Dealin' with crime, a lot of why'all dealin' wid rhymes
Stuck on the grind, crackheads cookin' my pies
Startin' off on the 1-2-5, the block's mine
Bucket the spine, DH tryna tap my line
Stop my producitons, want to know my money discussions
Who I roll wid, "buy so many cars is he legitin' of my dick"
It didn't matter when I ain't have shit
They done watch me in helicopters, parklin' in my crib
All I want to feed is my kids, no time to do a bid
Feel me, I forced the whole guns a while for my ones
Didn't sell drugs, where the money come from?
No school, no job, no bitch, no food, fuck that
Do what I do to make my shit true
And I make it hard on them boys who blew they cats charges
If I go to jail you know I'm blowin' on the Sergeants
[Chorus x5]
The song "Caught Up" by Royal Flush is a portrayal of the harsh realities of life on the streets. The chorus repeats the phrase "Some people get caught up" several times indicating that people often fall victim to the tough conditions of the ghetto. Ol' Dirty Bastard's rap emphasizes that knowledge attained from school is ineffective for survival on the streets. ODB's lyrics encourage people to focus on making money rather than wasting time on education. Mack 10's lyrics are about his experiences with various drugs and violence. He explains how he can quickly get rid of anyone who tries to mess with him. In contrast, Royal Flush raps about how he has been involved in criminal activities to make ends meet. He tells his story, and he makes it clear that he is willing to do whatever it takes to feed his children.
The song offers insights into why some people resort to an illegal lifestyle. Crime provides a means for many people to earn a living, especially when they have no education, no job or alternatives. The lyrics reflect an anger in people that comes from a belief that they have been marginalized and ignored by society. The lyrics about helicopters and police keeping an eye on Royal Flush in his own home show how the police target communities that are perceived to be dangerous.
Overall, the song offers a message of perseverance and survival amidst challenging conditions. The lyrics urge people not to give up, even when life seems hopeless. They suggest that the solution is to focus on what's important and take action to improve one's life regardless of the circumstances they find themselves in.
