Kill 'Em All
Young Wicked Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Kill em all) And I know that it′s been said before
By Metallica and half of the other rappers doing horrorcore
But that ain't me, I do the wickedshit and that′s a difference hoe
I throw knives in the crowd
And I have you runnin' from the entrance, yo
For those who know, yeah that was a throwback
And my shit's dope, having struggled like Brandon Novak
I′m reppin′ a whole axe not just one side and we don't die
It′s axe murder that's for life
And we walk up on mountain with no ride
And I spit that raw
People lookin′ at me like I'm gonna lose it
Cause I′m doing that in wicked way
And that's not all
I'mma lose it but I make it by my own
I got a little way to go before
I take it all
Everybody ever told me that I had anything to do
And I killed them all
Everybody dead and I don′t really wanna stop

I got a killer instinct, baby it′s a part of me
Bloody bodies never bothered me, honestly
They say "uh Young Wicked is a prodigy"
I'm just doing what I oughta be
Watch me kill em all

And I know that I ain′t the only one
That wanna kill everyone cause it's the only right
And if you comin at any of my homies
Then I′m gonna be blastin' by my homies side
Don′t look that phony huh? Let the real get pride
Let me get one hundred mill if you feel that I'm
Down to ride, looking for my missing link and I finally found it
I wish you the wicked one is kickin' em in they ass
Givin′ nobody a pass, never be comin′ in last
Sicker to fuck shit, I go insane with desire to burn it all down
And I set them on fire cause evil inside of this world is nothin'
And I′mma be hustlin', kick that flow
Cause I only got a minute to get in
Then I′m gonna bump it everyway and it stay this raw
Everybody livin' in condition that is wicked
And it′s just too unstable
I'll be rioting a purge and comin' late to the urge




And now there they go
Everybody give in and I don′t really wanna stop
