Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This that dark shit mane
Psyche been slain, psyche been slain, pray for my brain
This that dark shit mane
Psyche been slain, psyche been slain, pray for my brain
This that shit that'll make you choke
Hanging from a noose on that rope
This that shit that'll make you broke
And I don't think I can cope
What am I after?
The son of a bastard
I will die a legend
My name in the rafters
Lock me in a cage
I will never be free
Throw that key away
I will never be me
This that shit that'll make you drop in, coffin
Stomping on your grave cuz I'm robbing, option
One is you die I promise, I'll piss on your tombstone no crosses
Option two is I leave you broke
Family dead no joke
Honestly I go hard as an X-Con choke
The bear you don't want to poke
What am I after?
The son of a...
I will die a legend
My name in the...
Lock me in a cage
I will never be (goddamn)
Throw the key away
I will never be...
I just wanna lose consciousness from my conscious leave me unconscious
I do this for my problems, sex is the mantra that pussy is toxic
Gin is the tonic, squeezing the irons, scheming on ounces




Squealing on foul shit, death before honor
Honor, honor, death before honor
