lirik lagu snak the ripper - the meaning
engineer:
light the l up, turn the beat up louder
take a hit of that, tell me what you see around ya
imma tell ya what i see
it may not be a pretty picture
but i ain’t trying to be a downer
see life like we living our last days
cause’ i see the planet that we k!llin and can’t save
the type of pain that can’t be given a bandaid
you can look at the brightside, how thick is the lampshade?
some say that fate is pre-determined
which means that nothing can be a freak occurance
and what will happen? i can’t be for certain
so i’m gonna live life to it’s fullest before i reach the curtains
cause who knows if there’s a deeper purpose?
is there a meaning of life, or if the reason’s worthless?
i just watch out for the demons lurking
and never leave myself open when i need a person
i’ve been doing a lot of drugs
makes me hope i can find happiness without being buzzed and
give me a sign from a cloud up above
cause’ i’ve been doubting so much i almost lost my power to love
maybe i’ll find another path to follow?
but until then, let me crack this bottle
cut some lines up, get another cap to swallow
tryin to mask the sorrow till i’m whiter than a fasion model
is money the root of evil?
seen it save lives, seen it ruin people
d-mn right i seen it ruin people
cause’ what happens to a fiend when you put that money through a needle
i’m just glad i know better than not
living in the cold weather with no sweater to rock
cause i’m a go-getter, (sold no record that flop?)
and i’ll be just fine even if i don’t get to the top
word
hook/chorus:
cause i’ve been thinking lately
what this life has made me
lord before you take me
tell me what’s the meaning?
snak the ripper:
uh
i spent twenty-eight years getting where i’m at
now i’m starring at pictures of the younger snak
when i wasn’t that crazy
but i was hungry like a shark
chronic spark, got me thinking of those nights spent in the dark
mastering my craft, laughing as the years p-ss
seems like yesterday when i was takin’ bottles back for cash
like how i went from that to this..
from sleeping in these streets to these clean sheets and a mattress
god d-mn
tell me what’s the point in this?
when i twist this (?) and burn this joint it’s like a don’t exist
me and my boys is mixed up in the life of drugs and crime
the hardest times behind us but we know this shits
constant in the struggle, tryin to double all we got
trying to stay free with troubles, all that we was taught
whether or not i get mine depends on a lot..
but yo, i’ll be just fine even if i don’t get to the top
word
hook/chorus
engineer:
strange how it go from an innocent child
twenty years later now, living this foul, wow
-n-lyzin’ my brain, considerin’ why it has to be
so fucked up for you to give me the crown, but look:
we smell money and we gettin’ it now
cause we be sniffin’ it down with the scent of a hound
we soldiers. being weak isn’t allowed
so i guess a sinister smile beats a miserable frown
p-ss the “ism” around, act like it’s all a game
i make a beautiful sunset in the fallin’ rain
we all got the power to make the hall of fame
even a slave can find freedom in a ball n’ chains
i got nothin’ to lose baby it’s all a game
and it’s time to reach em, i can hear the people call my name
got the confidence, now i’m standing tall as cranes
so if i can’t earn power, imma take the stalin way
go ahead and label me bi-polar
cause’ you know i get high and my eyes lower
smoke more then a pot grower with glaucoma
and imma be the same until my times over
yea
hook/chorus
