Video Games
T.Y.P. Lyrics

Put in your quarter
Insert a coin to begin playing

Now it's time for a slaughter
The game is starting and violence is imminent

I can move the joystick and watch him murder his daughter
The player has control over their character and can commit violent acts

Psychopath Liu Kang, he'll leave you for dead
The character of Liu Kang is violent and deadly

But Mortal Kombat will let you cut off arms and legs and heads
The game allows players to perform gruesome acts of violence

Now you's a killa, even if your enemy's bigger
The player can become a skilled killer regardless of their opponent's size

Fatality means you get to finish the nigga
Performing a Fatality move allows the player to kill their opponent

PlayStation, watch for what you're facing
Be aware of the game and its content

But you can go play Sega
Another gaming system is an alternative option

But I'm gonna go get Raiden
The character of Raiden is preferable for the player

But you can go get Sonya Blade, she's a woman
Another playable character is Sonya Blade, who is female

Ice cold nigga Sub Zero, now he's coming
The character Sub Zero is a formidable opponent

Psycho NIP, uhh game master, I'm lyrically insane
The rapper is confident in his skills as a player and performer

There's some good and some evil in those video games
Video games can contain elements of both good and evil

Put the quarter in, now you're on your way
By inserting a coin, the player can begin their gaming experience

Push one player, then you start to play
Select the single player option to start playing

You must keep it real when you're tryin to win
Honesty and authenticity are important when playing to win

Game over nigga, you can play it again
If unsuccessful, the player can try again

See I'm the man that took control
The player has control over their character and the game

And I'm the one you'll be dealin with
The player is the one in charge of their gaming experience

Every person that you kill, see you'll really be feelin it
The player may feel the consequences of their violent actions

Healin quick, uh it's like you have a new life
The character can recover quickly as if they have a new life

Perfectly in great condition, but there's a new knife
Despite being uninjured, there's a new weapon to face

Now it's adding, then you gon subtract one
The game involves numerical processes such as adding and subtracting

Then you go attack one, then you go collapse one
The player attacks and causes their opponent to fall

Now you're shootin fire and ice, bullets servin em all
The character has new abilities such as firing projectiles

I'll teach you how to play Psycho NIP and murder em all
The rapper will teach others how to play the game and be successful

You gotta start from the bottom and rise to the top
The player must begin at the beginning and progress to the end

Fight hard with combinations, finish him with a glock
Effective combinations in battle can lead to victory

Now it's a challenge, hopin that your ass ain't afraid
The game provides a challenge that may be intimidating to some

On stage, front page, Johnny Cage had a gauge
A reference to the character Johnny Cage and his weapon, a gauge

Move somethin, act bad, this game had a trigger
The game encourages players to act tough and aggressive

(..?..) take no shit and didn't fall none of them niggas
The character is confident and does not back down from a challenge

Hold em up, JB, funk psycho ass swing
A reference to the rapper JB and his style

Enemies all perish from a Scorpion's sting
A reference to the character Scorpion and his deadly moves

'cause I'ma Toys are Us kid, the psych ain't bumpin
The rapper associates himself with being a kid who likes toys

Everybody plays the game while they smokin on somethin
Playing video games while smoking is common

Uh, go get your niggas, now you're feelin sorry
The player is pitying their opponents

Psycho NIP possess the souls of a thousand dead warriors
A reference to the rapper's stage name and his perceived skills

Chorus x3
Repeating the chorus for emphasis
