Crank
Zed's Dead/Omar Linx Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can't fuck with me, this is foreplay
This is everything I told 'em I would portray
They're calling me a killer, I guess murder is my forte
Never short changed, gotta get my money up
Stacks in the duffel 'til I can't get the zipper shut
If they try and go to war I should wish them luck
You will all fall victim to my plan
If you're looking for answers get in the line, fan
Oh it gets hot in the kitchen, hot as a cayenne
But I can handle the heat hotter than Iran
I am the man, handing out toe tags
Your life in my hands, throw bag
I've been in this a minute, didn't you know that?
Plus I've been waiting to go, why should I hold back?
There's no chance, so the haters better pipe down
Get yourself in the zone for tonight's sound
If you want to get this song, cut the lights out
We could do this right now, we should do this right now
To all my people that belong in a padded room
With their caution to the wind; save the attitude
All my dub heads, all they see is blood red
They ask about the old me, I tell them that he's fucking dead
He's fucking dead!
The lyrics to Zed's Dead/Omar Linx's song Crank are filled with notions of violence and aggression. The opening line, "I feel like King Kong snorting cocaine," establishes an almost wild sense of power, which is carried through the rest of the lyrics. The singer is unashamedly violent, claiming "They're calling me a killer, I guess murder is my forte." There's a palpable sense of danger throughout the song, with references to "toe tags" and "blood red." The singer feels invincible, able to handle any heat or war that comes his way.
There's also an interesting sense of performance throughout the song. The singer claims that "This is everything I told 'em I would portray," suggesting that he is playing up to a role that he feels is expected of him. Similarly, the repeated suggestion that the listener "get in the line, fan" implies that there is a cult-like following that the singer is leading. By the end of the song, the violent protagonist has fully taken over, with the closing line "He's fucking dead" suggesting that any hint of the old him is gone.

I had been constipated for two weeks. I tried everything from stool softeners, to laxatives. The second drop of this song was the only thing that was powerful enough to cure my ailment - and in rather violent fashion too.
