Free Kutter
Westside Gunn Lyrics

Brr
Brr
Ayo

Ayo, controller of the exits
The ark keeps stormin' got a Mac on both sides
My shot keep pouring
Hold your head up all time 'cause time keep going
The flyest nigga of all time, and y'all know it
If God shy, we all shy, life's euphoric
Bust a brick out the bag of raw, I can stove it
Saint Joseph with red tops in front of Rose's
Had a four and the jit, turnt the nine and called it culture
Pot pioneers had to suplex the soda
They raided the duplex, they missed us by a quota
Let the Mac off out the Trackhawk, doing doughnuts
Cold shoulder, let the niggas all know
You better know us, yeah
You better know us, yeah
You better know us, four pound on your forehead
Your mind off your shoulders
We the greatest, beef like eating greens
Kill 'em on the wake up
They popped the cells, Lord, love your neighbor
Put you out your misery
The only box I'ma be in is six deep
Been in school too long, I wanna deal a key (I wanna deal a key)
I wanna feed all the fam, I want my mans to eat (I want my mans to eat)
I got some niggas that I miss but we ain't never speak
My nigga praying for parole (Uh huh), let my nigga free (Uh huh)
Let my nigga free

If Allah shine, Kutter gon' shine, it's mathematical
Peace God, keep your head up on your sabbatical
Jay Elect, Griselda, done finally entered the chat
With that "skrrt, do-do-do-do" all over the tracks
Spitting actual facts soon as the originator was Black
From Buffalo to Tupelo we tryna break from the trap
You should read theology of time as your days blow by
It'll be like Yoda with Luke in the Dagobah
The truth is coming like Butcher, nigga, that's word to Jigga
I pray you skate through your bid like eights, see how I figure?
The flow is icy icy, nary a one as nicey
It's the goat herder, you writing for ghosts? Bitch, I might be
It's just me, the machine, Westside, Hermes for Hitler, Jay-dolf Spitler
Burning niggas live with the scripture
Like Gang Starr and Freddie Fox told you, it's the militia
I spit it for that Mac, that mouth, that Calliope and that fisher
You should hang this thousand word verse in your cell like a picture
Remember Kutter, you a god, no demi, no Ashton Kutcher




My god, my god, without Bruce Almighty or Bruce Willis, we die hard
Allah sent you here to be king like Flygod

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Westside Gunn's song "Free Kutter" are dense with references to street life, spirituality, and self-empowerment. The song begins with a proclamation of being in control of one's fate, comparing oneself to a controller of exits and emphasizing the need to stay strong despite the unstoppable passage of time. The lyrics also assert the singer's status as the flyest person of all time, with a touch of humility by acknowledging that if God is shy, then everyone is shy, and that life's highs are euphoric.


The verses go on to reference drug dealing and the dangers associated with it, using metaphors of busting bricks out of bags of raw material and the potential consequences of police raids. There is a sense of defiance in the lyrics, with the assertion that the Mac (a firearm) will be used to assert dominance over adversaries. The importance of loyalty is emphasized, with the need to be known and respected by others, but also acknowledging the potential for betrayal.


The second verse brings in religious and cultural references. The lyrics express a belief in the power of faith, using the Islamic greeting "Peace God" and suggesting that success is tied to alignment with a higher power. The mention of Jay Electronica and Griselda (a hip-hop collective) entering the conversation implies a sense of unity and shared goals within the music industry. The lyrics also touch on the significance of black originators in music and the desire to break free from the constraints of the trap genre.


Overall, "Free Kutter" combines themes of self-confidence, spirituality, and the struggle for success in the face of adversity. It celebrates individuality and the power of faith while acknowledging the harsh realities of street life.
