The Kite
Soaring Revelry: Unraveling the High-Flying Tale of 'The Kite' by Chill E Mammoth
Lyrics
Well I fly just a little too high
Expressing a tendency to elevate oneself beyond the norm.
That's why they call me The Kite
Nickname given, likely referencing the high-flying behavior.
Fly me down at the bar on a Saturday night
Describing being present at a bar on a Saturday night.
I don't mean to do nothin' wrong
Asserting no malicious intent or wrongdoing.
Just drink a drink and maybe sing me a song
Indulging in drinking and possibly singing.
But a song won't pay my bail when the morning comes
Acknowledging the consequences of actions in the morning.
Every now and then I get a little outta hand it's fine
Occasionally losing control but accepting it as normal.
The police all know my name
Notoriety with the police, possibly due to past actions.
And there's a few that I call friends of mine
Having some police as friends despite the reputation.
I'm a local celebrity
Claiming local fame or recognition.
I get locked up but always get set free
Getting arrested but consistently avoiding long-term consequences.
Well I fly just a little too high
Reiterating the tendency to soar above the norm.
That's why they call me The Kite
Reaffirming the nickname "The Kite" and its association with flying high.
Well I fly just a little too high
Continuing to emphasize the inclination to rise above.
That's why they call me the Kite
Repeating the nickname and linking it to a chaotic situation.
Punches flyin' in the heart of a cell block fight
Describing a brawl or conflict in the midst of a cell block.
I'm not one to start me a fight
Stating a reluctance to initiate fights.
But if I'm gassed up all I need is a light
Indicating a potential for conflict if provoked.
Well I fly just a little too high
Reiterating the theme of flying too high.
That's why they call me The Kite
Connecting the nickname to the inclination to soar.
Every now and then I get a little outta hand it's fine
Acknowledging occasional loss of control as acceptable.
The police all know my name
Highlighting familiarity with law enforcement.
And there's a few that I call friends of mine
Acknowledging some police officers as acquaintances.
I'm a local celebrity
Restating local recognition or celebrity status.
I get locked up but always get set free
Reiterating the pattern of getting detained but not facing lasting consequences.
Well I fly just a little too high
Emphasizing the tendency to ascend beyond the norm.
That's why they call me The Kite
Affirming the association of the nickname with flying too high.
Well I fly just a little too high
Repeating the theme of soaring beyond typical limits.
That's why they call me The Kite
Reaffirming the connection between the nickname and elevated behavior.
Well I fly just a little too high
Reiterating the inclination to fly higher than usual.
That's why they call me The Kite
Reaffirming the association of the nickname with elevated behavior.
