Claymores
Claymores Unleashed: Shadows, Struggles, and Survival
Lyrics
They left me here on my own It's been too long in the shadows
Feeling abandoned and isolated, spending a significant amount of time in obscurity.
I cannot tell right from wrong That money still coming in
Struggling to differentiate between right and wrong, while still receiving financial gains.
These niggas still hate my soul I show some niggas the way
Facing hostility from others who resent the speaker's soul, guiding some towards a better path.
And they try to block the road So I keep shit on the low
Encountering obstacles from those who attempt to hinder progress, maintaining a discreet approach.
That shit that nobody knows I'd rather leave everybody
Keeping certain information hidden, preferring to maintain privacy and avoid unnecessary attention.
Than let 12 know what I'm on These niggas wanna be known
Preferably distancing oneself from everyone rather than revealing sensitive information to authorities.
Them Claymores kill when they blow She wanna know why I'm distant
Warning about the destructive consequences of explosive actions, possibly related to conflicts or confrontations.
I just tell her to move on
Explaining the emotional distance to someone and suggesting they move on from the relationship.
Lately, it got extra shady But it's too late, nobody can save me
Describing recent events as increasingly dubious, feeling beyond rescue from the situation.
I am what I am, no more debating You say it's up, I'm drawing down, don't
Embracing one's identity without engaging in further debates, responding assertively to challenges.
Play me Them niggas over there, you know they ain't me
Rejecting comparisons to others, emphasizing uniqueness and disassociating from certain individuals.
Darling I've been getting money over there, they starving
Successfully earning money while others are struggling, highlighting personal achievements.
Tell me where they be at if they grew up in the partments
Questioning the whereabouts of those who criticize, challenging them to prove their upbringing.
Oh, don't start it
Discouraging the initiation of conflict or argument.
So I guess I can't fake it Keep it 98 to the fuck Niggas hating
Remaining genuine, expressing authenticity, and avoiding deception. Facing animosity despite staying true.
Niggas want beef, that Canik turn them to some bacon
Referencing a firearm ("Canik") turning potential adversaries into casualties in a conflict.
Why they playing
Expressing confusion about the motives of others, particularly regarding their actions or behavior.
I don't know I don't know
Admitting a lack of understanding or clarity regarding certain situations.
I don't know I don't know
Reiterating uncertainty or confusion about specific circumstances.
Them niggas over there, you know they ain't me, darling
Reaffirming the distinction between the speaker and others, emphasizing individuality.
I've been getting money over there, they starving
Continuing to prosper financially while acknowledging the struggles of others in a specific location.
Tell me where they be at if they grew up in the partments
Challenging critics to reveal their origins if they come from a challenging environment.
Oh, don't start it
Advising against starting conflict or argumentation.
The night before
The events described occurred the night before, adding a temporal context to the narrative.
