Lyrics

Introduction of the artists Muir and Pleasents.
Chorus:
Repetition of the chorus in the song structure.
If you want what's under the sun - you better get your
To achieve one's desires in the world, resorting to a gun may be necessary.
Fingers 'round a gun
Emphasizing the power and control that a gun provides.
You can rule what's under the sun - if you get your
Asserting dominance over a situation by having control over a firearm.
Hands around a gun
Reiteration of the influence and authority gained through possessing a gun.
I'm not convinced of your intention - there's more than
Doubt about the sincerity or honesty of someone's intentions.
A point of contention
Recognition of a significant disagreement or conflict.
Outside is where we'll settle - I'm gonna pull out my metal
Suggesting a confrontation or settlement outside, with the speaker preparing to use a firearm.
Now you can't use your college education - when you're
Downplaying the significance of a formal education in challenging or intense situations.
Swimming in your own perspiration
Highlighting the physical stress and exertion in challenging circumstances.
You broke all the rules you know - now all the rules go out the window!
Consequence of breaking established rules, leading to a disregard for rules altogether.
Chorus
Repetition of the chorus for emphasis.
Let's check the score to see who's winning -
Evaluating the situation to determine who holds an advantage.
The muthafucka that ain't afraid of sinning
Admiration for someone unafraid of committing sinful or rebellious acts.
Makes no difference who's older or bigger - he's the
Regardless of age or size, the person with the courage to act is deemed smarter.
Smart money 'cause his finger's on the trigger
Emphasizing the significance of being ready to take action, particularly with a firearm.
For every person that thinks that they won't die - there's
Highlighting the inevitability of death, symbolized by a bullet.
A bullet to prove you a lie
Underlining the point that everyone is vulnerable to mortality.
You can try but you ain't gonna get no - NO! - 'cause all the rules just went
Attempting to achieve something significant without adhering to rules is futile.
Out the window!
Repetition of the chorus, reinforcing the theme of disregarding rules.
Chorus
Reiteration of the chorus in the song's structure.
Should of thought about the kickback - now you got yourself a bitch slap
Regret for not considering the consequences, resulting in a negative outcome.
Without pain, where would I be - just like you, pretty damn lonely
Recognition of the importance of pain and challenges in shaping one's character.
Now let us take a moment of silence - to commemorate our new bloody violence
Moment of reflection for the introduction of a new, violent reality.
It's the end of the life you know - all the rules just went out the window
Emphasizing the drastic change in life due to the abandonment of rules.
Chorus (2x)
Repetition of the chorus to conclude the song.
