Red Nose
Tech N9ne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

That's real
People act a different way with me
I feel don't nobody wanna play with me
And that's ill cause they treat me like a stain on their clothes
The industry are my foes
They treat me like I got a red nose, red nose, red nose
They put me down
And treat me like I got a red nose, red nose, red nose
Don't make me clown
And have to go put on my red nose

[Verse 1]
I got my face painted
Crazed, ain't it?
That a black dude lookin like he got a white tattoo
People thinkin that he way tainted... by evil
Treat you like fecal
Wanna beef you when they meet you
People perceive you to be lethal
When you ain't see through like tissue
I feel like the industry givin me vivid stupidy
When they distribute these fictitious sissies
When I rip it so serious and wickedly
No forgivin thee
When I claim were Strange
Everyone tellin I'm insane, were bane
I'm a independent, talented individual
Well workin but the industry is the reindeer games
And they call me Rudolph the Red
They know I don't rip a mic
But I chew off the head
Spit it at the PD's and DJ's and VJ's who be gay
You fake it, You get threw off a ledge
It be tough, We snuffing, Homie trust me
Nothing is worse than knowing your beautiful
But your treated like an ugly duckling
So I'm Rocky Dennis
But I'm so polished, Nothing can stop in this
Bad and the brain ain't no good, It's not replenished
The fakers who imitate me and mock me finished
We checked a mill, Yes it's real
Through Strange, I don't need your major label record deal

[Chorus]
That's real
People act a different way with me
I feel don't nobody wanna play with me
And that's ill cause they treat me like a stain on their clothes
The industry are my foes
They treat me like I got a red nose, red nose, red nose
They put me down
And treat me like I got a red nose, red nose, red nose
Don't make me clown and have to go put on my red nose

[Verse 2]
They tend to stray away from me because I'm different
And it's been this way with me ever since I was an infant
Other kids were jealous
They say that the look off in my eyes seemed hellish
Never knowin later on in life, I would relish
The thought of me ballin, Livin my life and sell it
I blame it on program directors
Go and request us, No damn selector
But if you got a lot of doe, man
They bless ya, Sure can depress ya
When you knowin that there ain't nobody better, mane
Stuck off in the cold when the bad weather came
Now they gotta see me livin it up and cheddar gain
Comin up from forever pain to it never rain
So I throw up the finger to everybody who got a tore up demeanor
Thinkin that Tecca N9na was sure nuff a dreamer
But the flow is so heavy, It could show-up Katrina
Now it's time to take it and you all must face it
Tech N9na is sacred
All of you hatin faggots couldn't see me with LASIK
Red nose, The leader so follow
"You gotta be ready to get up and go" is the motto
Made it through everything negative, bravo
The money that's comin to feel like I won the Lotto
Now I'm about to put the slay on auto
Swoop down on the DJ's, Tell 'em all to quit the replays
Make 'em put Tecca N9na in the Sorado

[Chorus]
That's real
People act a different way with me
I feel don't nobody wanna play with me
And that's ill cause they treat me like a stain on their clothes
The industry are my foes
They treat me like I got a red nose, red nose, red nose
They put me down
And treat me like I got a red nose, red nose, red nose
Don't make me clown and have to go put on my red nose

[Verse 3]
I'm comin in, Drivin my short bus
With it's nose, I don't need a torch up
Bustin through like the industry's Porsche
Comin after who ever didn't support us
Rip down it's bleachers
I blew up cause my sound is ether
Underground up done found it's creature
Not scared of a nigga with clownish features
I makin a name outside your mainstream
Real, It wasn't an insane dream
From the beginning, I really came clean
You about to see Strange gleam
Take it over and gain green
Strange Music and RBC along with Fontana
We gon' change things

Now it's so funny
Cause with money I can fly away
Or read them haters off in the deepest darkest hide away
Why do they do me wrong? My music truly strong
Because I'm different
All you cowards wanna shoo me gone
Yes, This is Strange year
World wide fame's near but the game's queer
Sometimes I feel like I'm Rudolph the Reindeer
And the music they said "blows" is on top and the cred grows
You gonna have to open up the door for the bro with the red nose

[Chorus]
That's real
People act a different way with me
I feel don't nobody wanna play with me
And that's ill cause they treat me like a stain on their clothes
The industry are my foes
They treat me like I got a red nose, red nose, red nose
They put me down




And treat me like I got a red nose, red nose, red nose
Don't make me clown and have to go put on my red nose

Doctor Octopus

All that I'm allowed to understand is made possible by our Heavenly Father God through Jesus Christ our Savior. 

God helps lost sheep which have been separated from his Love, those who seek a change of life. God shines a light in the dark. Church is a place to bring the Truth to our societies with teachers making lessons available. 

Knowing everything Good in this world is from God our Creator is important. Although we don't recognize all the love and joy in the world, everything is possible thanks to the love God has for us. We can be quick to dismiss our existence and forget who we are. How humans are so wonderfully made. All of nature around us is made with such incredible beauty. 

Growing up in a time when nature was our playground helped us see how beautiful life is. We would enjoy recess playing with our friends, having conversations. Enjoying outdoor activities with each other helped build bonds, allowing us to make friends. Becoming one with nature and allowing our brain to relax. Positive thoughts and possibilities unwind once we're allowed to think clearly. The secrets to Life are within the words God has left us, it's not encoded, just needs thorough examination. 

I was sent to Catholic school in summers while my family had a small band that sang at the church we attended. I was the youngest and sat in the corner waiting for the moment to finally go home. I would see and hear my family praising our Heavenly Father God, our Savior Jesus Christ with the church uniting. It was something that created lasting bonds with pastors and church goers. I always felt safe, at home. Although at that moment I could not appreciate all the love God has given me. 

My father and other leaders in our neighborhood formed a community group that would come together to clean up surrounding streets and grow as one big family. The city provided tools and materials to help the community give back in a way that made us all feel whole and safe. They were collective efforts that did not seek more than the satisfaction of knowing that our neighbors, compatriots, would feel safe on the way. We would have community meetings where law enforcement would participate, creating a safe environment for our neighbors. God makes all of this possible and its simplified when we give ourselves time to think clearly.

Times were good those days running around with giant garbage bags, competing with our friends and neighbors to see who could fill them up first. It felt like heaven seeing the love emanating from selfless people. These days of my life, I remember as if it were yesterday. All the joy we feel and the words we're able to muster are possible thanks to the love God has shown us. Once we realize that only God is good and that all joy in this world is because of him, we can comfortably accept the love of this world. 

I appreciate each family very much. Seeing joyful gatherings brings spectacular feelings of appreciation for our Creator God, our Savior Jesus Christ. I take each life seriously and I'm grateful that our Father The Creator of All gives us such miraculous possibilities to create children. It may seem small, but it is a very real gift He allows us to experience. Just a taste of what God is capable of and available here on Earth. Although sometimes we can overlook such things, everything is possible thanks to God. 

Getting together to celebrate birth is certainly important. Having your loved ones near you rejoicing in the gift of life is wonderful news. Celebrating creation is a way of thanking our Creator God. It is beautiful to share the day with those who gave you life and those who are now part of your life. 

Taking anything someone said and accepting it as facts is something I myself was not willing to do. Questioning more is certainly something I can understand. Looking everywhere for answers without letting anyone stop you from knowing more about yourself. Though my understandings may seem somewhat thoroughly examined, I'll always be a student, seeking to understand more everyday. It is an ongoing effort that we must understand will never be completed.



Doctor Octopus

I'm walking this path so others have an idea of ​​what it requires. Not all of us will be willing to go through this at the same time, although we'll all have to enter through the gates of the kingdom. Don't be afraid to ask me anything. I'll keep it simple and explain to anyone what our Heavenly Father God through our Savior Jesus Christ has allowed me to understand so far. 

I understand not everyone is ready for these things and at a certain age these things will consume us if we aren't careful. Certain memories come back to me here and there and I try not to immerse myself in them every day. I know my limits and try not to force myself to remember too much of them in one day. It is important to make sure we start the day with our Heavenly Father God, our Savior Jesus Christ and end the day with our Heavenly Father God, our Savior Jesus Christ. 

This immersion in the Truth requires a strong mind with help of our almighty God. The love of our Creator God, Jesus Christ our Savior. Thinking we won't need help on this journey can lead to a troubled life. Always keep him in your thoughts and allow him to help you on this journey to come out intact. I couldn't sleep well for days on my trip, fear of closing my eyes. This was the hate I was allowing to build up and not addressing it properly. True medicine is seeking God, asking our Savior Jesus Christ for help to keep our mind stable. Understanding this is important to continue our search. Don't feed on hatred the world tries to build within us. 

I've spent some time in my own mind and have had time to see how the ego plays. Getting immersed in these thoughts can be problematic. I have been groomed by those around me growing up. Being raised in a family and community that loves God has shown me what a peaceful life within big cities should look like. I have been made a soldier by God with all the love with which he has surrounded me throughout my life. When I say ego, I mean Devil but will use ego as I don't seek to scare anyone.

Although I can clearly explain how to defeat the ego in certain situations, we all have our own difficult road ahead. Once you go straight after it, it'll come back with a vengeance in our weakest state. Even if you eventually understand it and are able to keep it at bay,  it'll start learning tactics used to suppress it and will infiltrate when you least expect it. This is why you should always continue to seek more of our Heavenly Father God by asking our Savior Jesus Christ for help throughout this journey. Diving into this without a proper understanding of what is required can be exhausting. Seeking to know exactly how evil takes hold of us is a serious thing. That trip has shown me how real the ego is and it's nothing to joke about. This is not something to take lightly, preparation is absolutely important, diving into this fight will require a lot from you depending on how far you want to dig. Fight bad dreams with good thoughts. I would suggest flooding your mind with positive feelings.

Diving into this could be exhausting and should be taken with all seriousness. Seeking to know exactly how evil takes hold of us is a long process. This journey has shown me how real the spiritual fight is, it's nothing to joke about. This is not something to take lightly, preparation is absolutely important, diving into this fight will require a lot from you depending how far you want to dig. Fight bad dreams with good thoughts.



Doctor Octopus

I would fall deep into self-pity and hatred as my mind drifted away and put God aside thinking I could face the bad without breaking. Knowing when you've fallen and seeking God's help through Jesus Christ our Savior is most important when you end up falling. We are only human and will surely fall short trying without help.

We try to protect children by keeping them away from the bad in the world. Although they need to learn what's bad and good. To see how to correct these problems in the future, they need to know that every decision we make has drastic consequences for us and those around us. That the decision is ultimately up to us and we will have to live with those options. Someday they will have to go out into the world, preparing them for what lays ahead is important.

The sooner we look for ways to properly correct our ways, the faster the transition to a proper life will be. Starting our lives on the wrong track increases our chance of falling into a cycle that will feel like a prison. The chance of quickly correcting our paths to a proper one will dramatically decrease. Life is not as complicated as the world makes us believe. We're given false solutions to serious problems that get worse and worse instead of better. Understanding that a broken life is how the ego wants to keep us in this world is a good start.

We all become rebellious in our teen years, this is when all the good and bad memories come into play. If we are not taught this, it results in what we see today, where respect almost needs to be bought. It's crazy to think about but that's exactly how the world has turned out. If we have money, friends surround us. Without money, who would want to hang around?

I went off the rails for years, but I always knew what was wrong and what was right. This allowed me to try to make responsible decisions. The consequences were so clear and I knew the fear of God. Certain situations happen when we aren't aware how humans function in the world. Everything is made clear by our Heavenly Father God through Jesus Christ our Savior.

The main thing is to get out of our ignorance and understand why certain things happen. This journey of understanding the world around us turned out to be quite the hunt. Growing up in a time when the internet was unrestricted, I started seeing things I couldn't believe were happening in this world. As a teenager, growing up exploring the world wide web allowed me to see some dire realities. These things are absolutely heartbreaking and disturbing. I unraveled some incomprehensible and exhausting realities that take place around us. These things can be harmful to our brains and can certainly drive some crazy.

This is not something to take lightly, preparation is absolutely important, diving into this fight will require a lot from you depending how far you want to dig. Fight bad dreams with good thoughts.

I would fall deep into self-pity and hatred as my mind drifted away and put God aside thinking I could face the bad without breaking. Knowing when you've fallen and seeking God's help through Jesus Christ our Savior is most important when you end up falling. We are only human and will surely fall short trying without help.

We try to protect children by keeping them away from the bad in the world. Although they need to learn what's bad and good. To see how to correct these problems in the future, they need to know that every decision we make has drastic consequences for us and those around us. That the decision is ultimately up to us and we will have to live with those options. Someday they will have to go out into the world, preparing them for what lays ahead is important.

The sooner we look for ways to properly correct our ways, the faster the transition to a proper life will be. Starting our lives on the wrong track increases our chance of falling into a cycle that will feel like a prison. The chance of quickly correcting our paths to a proper one will dramatically decrease. Life is not as complicated as the world makes us believe. We're given false solutions to serious problems that get worse and worse instead of better. Understanding that a broken life is how the ego wants to keep us in this world is a good start.

We all become rebellious in our teen years, this is when all the good and bad memories come into play. If we are not taught this, it results in what we see today, where respect almost needs to be bought. It's crazy to think about but that's exactly how the world has turned out. If we have money, friends surround us. Without money, who would want to hang around?

I went off the rails for years, but I always knew what was wrong and what was right. This allowed me to try to make responsible decisions. The consequences were so clear and I knew the fear of God. Certain situations happen when we aren't aware how humans function in the world. Everything is made clear by our Heavenly Father God through Jesus Christ our Savior.

The main thing is to get out of our ignorance and understand why certain things happen. This journey of understanding the world around us turned out to be quite the hunt. Growing up in a time when the internet was unrestricted, I started seeing things I couldn't believe were happening in this world. As a teenager, growing up exploring the world wide web allowed me to see some dire realities. These things are absolutely heartbreaking and disturbing. I unraveled some incomprehensible and exhausting realities that take place around us. These things can be harmful to our brains and can certainly drive some crazy.

I'm a rocker. I normally hate rap. Matter of fact, I wrote an essay on why I think rap has lost almost all of its talent. This song has made me eat my words. Well played, Tech N9ne.
