Game Over
STRYDER Tinchy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Won't rest till all my nigga's rocket ballin',
I don't even think I stopped this morning,
I'm that nigga that usually gets them 'what's them called's in,
I'm called when it's time to get the shopping sorted,
Oh this Armani blazer, which I got imported,
Yeah I like that whip,
'Cause I'm on them grams only reason why I ain't dropped that forty,
Want me to get my willy out so they can toss it for me,
Got them going topless for me,
When she groped it for me,
Really got me horny,
Record label, contract my lawyers got them it me,
Dotted all the I's and the T's can you cross them for me?
You can try and put your crosses on me,
I watch hate, I got shooters that are watching for me.
I'm heavy, I'm colder,
Better me know, sir,
I can tear apart mc's
But I'd rather read a book on childcare by Keri Katona,
No nice, 'cause I've run out of it,
Dumb it down a bit,
Ain't something I'm prepared to do,
Well I ain't never gonna run out of lip,
So here's something I prepared for you.
I tried to relax, but being spaced it inspires me back,
When will I be nice, to Katie Price,
The day I see a cage fighter in drag, ah,
I don't wanna tell my rhyme without friction,
Jump in to beat, both feet first,
Make pros eat their words,
And sit and watch 'em swallow their own dick-tion
Uh, Ishi distort that bass,
Man grew up on a raw estate,
Now, every time I draw my dates,
They're like 'how the fuck d'you afford this place?',
First place, first place, first place,
Try and act up and I'ma address that, call it,
But I fuck up the man in the place,
Champagne, for goodness sake,
I ain't got a queue 'cause they know my face,
Glance at my watch tryin' to wind up on me,
I was like I ain't got time to waste,
Get it,
I ain't got time to waste
Get it,
Try and get hype in my face,
Regret it,
Got a big clipboard
And I don't remember the last ?
Let me grieve for the beat before I murder it,
Don't know my name by now?
You shoulda heard of it,
Why? 'cause I'm murdering,
Anybody lurking in, close proximity, circling,
Don't make an example of men when I stride in,
Dev's has got a tiny temper,
I'm observing this, learning,
But know I'm just yearning to burn it,
I'll fight your agenda,
Lock me up, might high risk offender
Make a man turn on his own team, like an Irish defender,
I'm a rhyming inventor
That's climbing to heights ya' not meant ta',
The game's over, so roll over,
I'm sober, but I'll still kidnap a so called soldier,
In a boat I'll row into dover,
Yeah it's over, the game's over.
Put up ya' lighters, I clash the Titans,
Fight the fighters, might fight the biters,
Spit on my flow, got tonsillitis,
That's on a Monday mornin', ha
Takin' over, run straight past ya'
No warning that I rule disaster,
Harder, faster, stronger, longer,
This one here was top of the classroom,
Stop the lecture, drop the pressure,
Never say never, but nevertheless I,
Never say no to experiments,
Whether it's temping in scrubs yards, spitting with eloquents,
Positive syllabus, having a hell of a time and it's evident,
Don't question my relevance,
I've started on this so I'm back in my element.
Uh, I open my mouth, bitches panic,
The jewel the liabilities,
Mm, I'm the asset surely?
Underdogs are barking up, shh hush puppy,
My new chain's got red and blue ice man I call it my slush puppy,
Yeah, let me clap them with the reminder flow,
I was best new comer err time ago,
Yeah, you've all passed ya' sell by date to me,
I'm different,
Bitch I sell out when you at the venue and date to me.
Now it's game over,
Kick him out the team, but heard he's snaking, he's a cobra,
Could have lived the dream but now ya' days are done, it's over,
Should have remembered scheming and your looking for a shoulder,
To lay low, to wipe your tears on, it's over.
They better let me go, let me loose,
I'm frozen cold, my veins are blue,
Hell to home but Satan prove,
Good as gold, my angels flew,
Yo, they can't knock down mine,
Cuffs on flows I lock down lines,
I am not human, real life mutant,
Ask Mick Foley, I'm not mankind,
Yeah, look under my eyelids,
All red, I bleed through the iris,
Like I've been smoking the weed, highest,
Now my brain's on freeze, minus
Yeah I ain't letting it melt,
I'm stark, haze, I'm letting it fill,
Silent this now separate that,
I stay here I ain't laying in jail, ill.

Even when I try to relax, the high from drugs pulls me back in
When will I be nice, to Katie Price,
When will I be kind to Katie Price
The day I see a cage fighter in drag, ah,
Only if I see a cage fighter dressed in drag
I don't wanna tell my rhyme without friction,
I don't want to rap without controversy or disagreement
Jump in to beat, both feet first,
I jump into a rap battle without hesitation
Make pros eat their words,
I make professional rappers regret their words
And sit and watch 'em swallow their own dick-tion
I watch them eat their own words and regret their own lyrics
Uh, Ishi distort that bass,
Ishi, distort the bass in the music
Man grew up on a raw estate,
I grew up in a rough neighborhood
Now, every time I draw my dates,
Now, every time I schedule my events or performances
They're like 'how the fuck d'you afford this place?'
They wonder how I can afford such a nice place
First place, first place, first place,
I always come in first place
Try and act up and I'ma address that, call it,
If you try to start trouble, I'll confront it
But I fuck up the man in the place,
But I intimidate everyone in the area
Champagne, for goodness sake,
I'm celebrating with champagne
I ain't got a queue 'cause they know my face,
I don't have to wait in line because people recognize me
Glance at my watch tryin' to wind up on me,
Someone looks at my expensive watch, trying to provoke me
I was like I ain't got time to waste,
I tell them I don't have time to deal with their nonsense
Get it, I ain't got time to waste
Do you understand that I don't have time to waste?
Try and get hype in my face,
If you try to act aggressively towards me
Regret it,
You'll regret it
Got a big clipboard
I have influence and power
And I don't remember the last ?
And I don't remember the last time I lost or failed
Let me grieve for the beat before I murder it,
Let me appreciate the music before I destroy it with my rap
Don't know my name by now?
If you don't know who I am by now
You shoulda heard of it,
You should have heard about me
Why? 'cause I'm murdering,
Because I'm killing it
Anybody lurking in, close proximity, circling,
I'll destroy anyone who tries to compete with me
Don't make an example of men when I stride in,
Don't try to challenge or humiliate me when I enter the scene
Dev's has got a tiny temper,
Dev's (referring to Devlin) has a short temper
I'm observing this, learning,
I'm watching and learning from the situation
But know I'm just yearning to burn it,
But you should know that I'm eager to surpass it
I'll fight your agenda,
I'll challenge and oppose your plans
Lock me up, might high risk offender
Even if you imprison me, I'll still be a dangerous threat
Make a man turn on his own team, like an Irish defender,
I can make someone betray their own team, just like an Irish soccer player
I'm a rhyming inventor
I'm creative and innovative with my lyrics
That's climbing to heights ya' not meant ta',
I'm achieving success that others didn't believe I could reach
The game's over, so roll over,
The game is finished, surrender
I'm sober, but I'll still kidnap a so called soldier,
Even though I'm sober, I'll still overpower and dominate someone who claims to be tough
In a boat I'll row into dover,
I'll sail into Dover with confidence
Yeah it's over, the game's over.
Yeah, it's done, the game is over.
Put up ya' lighters, I clash the Titans,
Hold your lighters up, I'm challenging the best in the game
Fight the fighters, might fight the biters,
I'll battle against the strong and imitate the imitators

People try to criticize my rap style but they can't stop me
That's on a Monday mornin', ha
That's a common occurrence
Takin' over, run straight past ya'
I'm taking control and surpassing everyone else
No warning that I rule disaster,
I bring chaos and destruction without warning
Harder, faster, stronger, longer,
I'm more intense, quicker, more powerful, and longer-lasting
This one here was top of the classroom,
I was always the best in class
Stop the lecture, drop the pressure,
Stop trying to teach me or lecture me, and remove the stress
Never say never, but nevertheless I,
I never say never, but still, I
Never say no to experiments,
I'm always open to trying new things
Whether it's temping in scrubs yards, spitting with eloquents,
Whether it's doing odd jobs in tough neighborhoods or rapping with skilled artists
Positive syllabus, having a hell of a time and it's evident,
My lyrics are uplifting, and I'm having a great time and it's clear to everyone
Don't question my relevance,
Don't doubt my significance or importance
I've started on this so I'm back in my element.
I'm back doing what I love and excelling in it
Uh, I open my mouth, bitches panic,
When I start rapping, people get scared
The jewel the liabilities,
My words are valuable, and my enemies are at a disadvantage
Mm, I'm the asset surely?
I'm the valuable one, without a doubt
Underdogs are barking up, shh hush puppy,
People who are underestimated are trying to challenge me, but they should be quiet
My new chain's got red and blue ice man I call it my slush puppy,
My new necklace has red and blue diamonds, I jokingly call it my slush puppy
Yeah, let me clap them with the reminder flow,
Let me impress them with my reminiscent style of rapping
I was best new comer err time ago,
I was the best newcomer a long time ago
Yeah, you've all passed ya' sell by date to me,
Yeah, you're all outdated and irrelevant to me
I'm different,
I stand out and I'm unique
Bitch I sell out when you at the venue and date to me.
I sell out concerts when you're still trying to get a date with me
Now it's game over,
Now the game is finished
Kick him out the team, but heard he's snaking, he's a cobra,
Remove him from the group, but I heard he's being sneaky and deceptive
Could have lived the dream but now ya' days are done, it's over,
You could have had a successful life, but now it's all over for you
Should have remembered scheming and your looking for a shoulder,
You should have remembered your deceptive actions and now you're looking for someone to lean on
To lay low, to wipe your tears on, it's over.
To hide and cry, it's all finished for you
They better let me go, let me loose,
They better allow me to have my freedom
I'm frozen cold, my veins are blue,
I'm completely numb and emotionless
Hell to home but Satan prove,
Even when I'm in a tough situation, I won't be defeated
Good as gold, my angels flew,
I'm as good as gold, and my supporters are gone
Yo, they can't knock down mine,
They can't bring me down
Cuffs on flows I lock down lines,
I have control and dominance over my rap verses
I am not human, real life mutant,
I'm not like everyone else, I'm a unique and extraordinary individual
Ask Mick Foley, I'm not mankind,
Just like Mick Foley, I'm not like anyone else
Yeah, look under my eyelids,
Look deep into my soul
All red, I bleed through the iris,
I'm passionate and my true self is visible
Like I've been smoking the weed, highest,
Like I've been smoking a lot of weed and I'm in an altered state
Now my brain's on freeze, minus
Now my brain is frozen and inactive
Yeah I ain't letting it melt,
Yeah, I won't let my mind go back to normal
I'm stark, haze, I'm letting it fill,
I'm completely focused and letting that state consume me
Silent this now separate that,
Keep quiet and separate yourself from the rest
I stay here I ain't laying in jail, ill.
I'll stay here and keep releasing music, I won't be imprisoned
