Violent J now has a radio show on W-FUCK OFF RADIO.com, called "The Witching Hours" - alongside other artists, producers, and special guests from The Dark Carnival of Psychopathic Records. Which is now over and now he has a show called "The Main Event" on Psychopathic Radio.
A recent appearance by Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope on the incredibly popular Howard Stern Show on Sirius Satellite radio, was extremely popular and Stern told ICP (and his sizable audience) that they were one of his favorite guests, telling the Insane Clown Posse that "you are exactly what you claim to be. You are for real."
14 year Old
Violent J Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Somewhere between 35th and Elwood
I never seen it, that white pick up truck
Ran into me underneath I was stuck
I crawled back out but I knew I was gone
The truck had drugged me all up on someone′s lawn
I was only 14 years old, the night that I died
Expecting Heaven but my wings never grew
(I went home)
It's so depressing, my mom cannot hear me
Only the cat seems to notice me barely
They wrapped my body up and took it for good
But my soul is left to roam through the hood
My life was short as I dwell on my past
This death is lonely, how long will it last?
I wonder.
What kind of death will leave me lingering on?
Forever 14 and forever alone
The walking dead through purgatory I roam
Forever 14 and forever alone
I walk through houses watch em′ watching TV
Talk on the phone pay no attention to me
I like to watch pretty girls in the shower
They're naked, ready, I watch them for hours
Some people fight I wonder why they're together
I walk the streets unaffected by weather
I walk through walls into bedrooms at night
Some people jump up but I′m no where in sight
Maybe they sense my presence if that the case
Why don′t they hear me as I scream in their face?
I try to write on the steam in the mirror
I try to touch em' but it′s like I'm not there
Some people stop and look around the room
Am I a energy?
How do I channel?
How do I push a tea cup right off the mantel?
I wonder.
What kind of death will leave me lingering on?
Forever 14 and forever alone
The walking dead through purgatory I roam
Forever 14 and forever alone
I followed mom but she′s never recovered
I can be with her but we can't be with each other
It′s so unfair, I'm right here in this chair
I do anything to tell her I'm here
And when I′m outside, make no mistake
The crows watch every move that I make
I walk through cemeteries looking for clues
Maybe this is it, or am I still paying dues?
I wonder.
What kind of death will leave me lingering on?
Forever 14 and forever alone
The walking dead through purgatory I roam
Forever 14 and forever alone
The lyrics to "14 year Old" by Violent J tell the story of a young boy who tragically dies in a hit and run accident and is left to wander the world as a spirit. The song explores the concept of purgatory and the idea that some deaths can leave a person lingering on, trapped between life and death. The lyrics evoke a sense of loneliness and longing as the boy watches his family and friends carry on without him.
The first verse describes the accident that took the boy's life. He is left feeling confused and disoriented as he emerges from the wreckage of the truck that hit him. The second verse details the boy's experiences as a ghost, watching the living go about their lives while he remains stuck in purgatory. He describes watching people on TV and even spying on girls in the shower, but he never feels truly present or connected to the world around him.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Forever 14 and forever alone" which represents the main theme of the song. The boy is trapped in a state of limbo where he cannot move on to the afterlife, but he is also unable to fully participate in the world of the living. The final verse describes the boy's attempts to connect with his mother, who is still grieving his death. He is frustrated by his inability to communicate with her and feels trapped in his ghostly state.
Overall, "14 year Old" is a haunting and melancholy song that asks important questions about what happens to us after we die. It explores the idea that some deaths are more complicated than a simple transition from life to death, and that for some people, the process of letting go can be a difficult and painful one.

I never seen it, that white pick up truck
I did not see the white pickup truck coming
Ran into me underneath I was stuck
The truck hit me and I was trapped beneath it
I crawled back out but I knew I was gone
Although I managed to escape from the truck, I knew I was going to die
The truck had drugged me all up on someone's lawn
The truck had pulled me along and I ended up on someone's lawn

Expecting Heaven but my wings never grew
I was hoping to go to Heaven, but I did not get wings
Never got pulled down to Hell not sure what to do
I did not go to Hell, but I was unsure what my fate was
(I went home)
I returned home, but only my cat seemed to notice my presence
It's so depressing, my mom cannot hear me
It's sad because my mother cannot hear or see me
Only the cat seems to notice me barely
Only the cat seems to be aware of my presence, but it's not very strong
They wrapped my body up and took it for good
My body was wrapped up and taken away

My soul is still wandering in the neighborhood

My life was brief and now I am reflecting on my past

It′s so unfair, I'm right here in this chair
It is unjust that I am here and cannot be with my mother
I do anything to tell her I'm here
I want to find a way to communicate my presence to my mother
And when I′m outside, make no mistake
When I am outside, I am still present even though I cannot be seen
The crows watch every move that I make
Crows observe my every movement
I walk through cemeteries looking for clues
I explore cemeteries searching for answers
Maybe this is it, or am I still paying dues?
I wonder if this is my fate or if I am still being punished
I wonder.
I am curious and have many questions
What kind of death will leave me lingering on?
I am unsure what type of death would leave one as a lingering spirit
Forever 14 and forever alone
I will always be 14 and forever alone
The walking dead through purgatory I roam
I am a walking dead soul roaming through purgatory
Forever 14 and forever alone
I will always be 14 and forever alone

"burn this whole shit down".... I'd strongly advise that get switched to "I'll burn this whole city down". When it's followed up.with "all of it" just makes more sense
