I'm Just Sayin'
Twiztid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With out sacrifice, there's nothing worthy, you see what I'm sayin'?
Nobody understands that, they just do what they wanna do,
(Right, Right), and um, live their life how they wanna do it, they don't wanna give nothin' up, you know?
(Oooh shit), me, I'd give it all up, if its worth it...
Why you looking at me like that?
(Mother fucker I wanna hit that joint),
OH!, My bad, shit I'm just kickin' it to you, here you go, (let me get the joint Tommy Chong)
Tellin' me you don't feel it? (I'm just tryin' to get high like you)
I here you baby, well there you go, I'm just tryin' to say,
That its getting to a point where mother fuckers gotta do something, instead of just sitting there,
You gotta get off your ass and do something about it,
Don't talk about it, be about it, that's how the fuck I'm feelin'
These lyrics from Twiztid's song "I'm Just Sayin'" are focused on the idea of sacrifice and how it is necessary to achieve worthy goals. The singer laments that people don't want to listen, don't understand that without sacrifice, there is no reward. They go on to explain that people simply do what they want to do and live their lives without giving anything up. However, the singer stands in contrast to this attitude, stating that they are willing to give everything up, but only if it is worth it. The verses are punctuated with the singer offering a joint to someone that they are talking to, indicating that the conversation is a casual one, but the message is still important.
The song touches on the fact that the world is at a point where action is necessary. It isn't enough to just sit around and talk about things. People need to do something if they want to see results. The lyrics are a call to action, urging the listener to get off their ass and take charge of their life. This message is highlighted by the fact that Twiztid is a group known for their horrorcore style, and this song is much more toned down with its message of positivity and change.
