Cold
Reckoning Fires: Anthony Lazaro's Cold Plate Saga
Lyrics
Be careful child
Warning to be cautious and mindful
Never play with fire
Caution against engaging in risky behavior
Your mama said these words
Reference to maternal advice
Oh so many times
Emphasizing the repetition of the advice
Thinking you knew better than the other guys
Believing in one's superiority over others
Riding on backbiting and get away with lies
Engaging in deceitful actions and escaping consequences
No matter what it takes or who is gonna cry
Emphasis on achieving personal desires, regardless of consequences
The only thing that matters is you get what you desire
Self-centered pursuit of desires
But I know for sure the day will come
A prediction that a day of reckoning will come
When you first realize what you have done
A realization of the consequences of one's actions
And you finally get your debt repaid
Consequences leading to repayment of debts
And revenge is served on a cold plate
Retribution being served in a cold manner
And you'll hear the roar of the showdown
Anticipation of a dramatic confrontation
When the world will stop without a sound
Imagery of a world stopping in a dramatic moment
And the moment you will cry for help
Predicting a cry for help in a difficult situation
They will only think about themselves oh yeah
Highlighting selfishness in times of crisis
The first time that I met you I thought you looked so sweet
Initial positive impression of someone
I should have run for the hills beating a retreat
Regret for not avoiding a problematic situation
When I heard you talking with that alluring sound
Attraction to an enticing voice
Should have recalled the sirens and how that thing went down
Recalling a past negative experience
Living on the trenches looking for a way to escape
Living in difficult circumstances, seeking an escape
You would always cut me down like the trimmers with the grapes
Experiencing repeated criticism and negativity
Never mind how I tried to leave you behind
Struggling to move on from a toxic relationship
I kept falling in your net oh I have been so blind
Repeatedly falling into a harmful pattern
But I know for sure the day will come
Reiteration of the prediction of a future realization
When you first realize what have you done
Awareness of the consequences of past actions
And you finally get your debt repaid
Repayment of debts as a consequence
And revenge is served on a cold plate
Continuation of the theme of cold retribution
And you'll hear the roar of the showdown
Anticipating a dramatic confrontation and its impact
When the world will stop without a sound
Imagining a world halting in response
And the moment you will cry for help
Expecting a plea for help in a difficult situation
They will only think about themselves oh yeah
Highlighting selfishness in times of crisis
But I know for sure the day will come
Reiteration of the prediction of a future realization
When you first realize what have you done
Awareness of the consequences of past actions
And you finally get your debt repaid
Repayment of debts as a consequence
And revenge is served on a cold plate oh yeah
Continuation of the theme of cold retribution
On a cold plate
Repetition of the idea of revenge served cold
On a cold plate
-On a cold plate
