Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hop in i'm pushing the start
I'm in the business of handling business
Hop out the whip see stars
I might just hit for some Christian on fraud
How do you think I got this far
Kush up stuffing a Raw
I'm in the whipski call me the chemist
Heard down the way them boys ain't living
Off of that powder, rash decisions
You be the one to put half up in it
Back end i turn rags to riches
Water my neck yeah it's flooded between us
I never stress it cause blood is thicker
Popping on two different color prescriptions
Brodie just copped him a buzz
I'm copping the bussdown showing the difference
I'm on the move now it's confidential
I got a bad lil shawty
If I got a bag then she flip it too
Baby, two twin nines same daddy
Sixty mg in the front seat now
I'm screaming where do you want me huh
And shawty so H town Bun B yeah
Wherever the move at she gotta be
Wherever the money where I be yeah
Ima go back in
Told you I never forget it
Acting like my word was law
They just call me bag flipper, the Genesis
I be up high yeah talking to God
Me, I was sent here to ball
My revelation was watching them cross me
And serving them all
You gotta let me know something
You got a you got a thing for playing and running
Heard you been saying some things
That ain't the same thing you telling me keep it a hundred
Keep going back and forth
Ain't them type of boys keep playing me like I don't love ya
I'm praying somebody ain't gotta die just to show you I die for you
X-6 roll this bitch out in public
Ride around with some go getters
Pull up get some money with you
Go ahead yeah pull the trigger
I never stress it cause blood is
The lyrics to Wolf & Cub's song "Blood" discuss the experience of a person who has gone through a transformative, potentially violent experience and is coming out the other side. The first verse talks about struggling to remember where they were before, feeling unsure if they are capable of moving forward. However, they ultimately emerge from this dark place and can once again appreciate the beauty of the world around them.
The second verse describes a moment of aggression, where the singer got into a fight and attacked someone. This behavior is abnormal for the singer, who is "losing it" and engaging in self-harm. However, they are able to see their own reflection and make a decision to commit to a symbolic action that will help them move forward. They create a blood pact, which can represent a solemn vow or commitment to oneself, and take a step outside into a new world with uncertain outcomes.
The final verse acknowledges the fear and uncertainty that can come with stepping into the unknown, but also recognizes that there is nowhere else to go but forward. The singer has nothing left to lose and wishes they had expressed themselves more fully before this moment. The song ends on a repeated refrain of "there's nowhere else to go," emphasizing the idea that the only direction to move is forward, even if it is scary or uncertain.
Line by Line Meaning
I can't remember where I went before
I'm lost and can't recall where I came from
I didn't know if I could make it through the door
Feeling unsure of my ability to overcome obstacles
I'm coming out of it and it's alright now
I'm starting to see things more clearly and feeling better
I see the day again and smell its sweetness
I'm finding joy in small things and appreciating life
The other night I got in a fight
I engaged in physical altercation recently
I struck someone cause he was in my light
I reacted violently in response to a minor inconvenience
I'd never done that, I was losing it
I was surprised by my own behavior and feeling unstable
Saw my reflection and I cut my first
I harmed myself after seeing my reflection
Poured the potion down the silver drain
I disposed of some sort of elixir or substance
I pulled my collar up against the rain
I tried to protect myself from something external
My hair was getting long and hard to recognize
My appearance was changing and becoming unfamiliar
I made a blood pact and then I stepped outside
I made a serious commitment and then emerged from my sheltered state
So, I don't know what's ahead
I'm uncertain about the future
But oh, there's nowhere else to go
I feel trapped with limited options
There's so many things I wish I'd said
I have unresolved feelings and thoughts
and let out all of the bullshit in my head
I want to express myself honestly
Even though I know if I show you now it might be too late
I fear that time is running out to communicate my thoughts and feelings
nothing to lose now
I'm prepared to take risks because I have nothing left to lose
I was frozen in it, what it was
I was stuck in a situation or feeling for a long time
with rosy visions of what was to come
I had optimistic but unrealistic expectations for the future
but I'm coming out of it and now it's alright
I'm finally starting to move past my previous struggles and feeling better
cause I made a blood pact before I stepped outside
My commitment is what gave me the strength to move forward
There's nowhere else to go
I feel stuck and without options
There's nowhere else to go
I feel trapped and unable to escape
There's nowhere else to go
I feel like I've reached a dead end
