Lyrics
I'm underrated in your eyes
I feel underestimated in your perception
Undersized but on the rise
Physically small but experiencing growth or success
Inclined to quench your hunger like supersizin' your fries
Ready to fulfill your desires, like upgrading your meal size
It's time to speak the truth
Time to be honest and open
We're runnin' out of time
Time is running out
The ties that you have with your friends is the prize
The relationships you maintain are valuable
We need to recognize hellos and goodbyes
Recognize both beginnings and endings
And if we realize before we die
If we understand before death, we are wise
Then we are wise
Encouraging introspection
Keep digging down deep inside
Encouragement to explore one's inner self
Don't analyze the cries
Don't overanalyze pain or distress
Just try to push ahead through the lows and the highs
Keep moving forward through ups and downs
In a world full of shit
Commentary on a challenging world
I'm comin' fully equipped
Prepared and well-equipped to face challenges
Mic in my hand
Holding a microphone, ready to express oneself
Blunt at my lip
Relaxed, perhaps using substances, like smoking
Kickin somethin never nothin see you bluffin always puffin rough and tough and stuffin my soul with the flow
Assertive and strong, facing challenges with resilience
The van down by the river
Mention of a van by the river (recurring theme)
Now someone's got beef
Conflict arises due to geographical origin
â??Cause you grew up in the east
Not claiming affiliation with a particular region
You ain't claimin' the west so he knocks out your teeth
Consequences for not aligning with a specific area
Just another beatin' on the crime-infested streets
Violence in crime-ridden areas
The strong get stronger while the weak are obsolete
The strong thrive, and the weak become irrelevant
So may you rest in peace
Wishing peace to those who have recently passed away
To the recently deceased
Reflection on mortality
I know one day soon we will definitely meet
Expectation of meeting the deceased in the afterlife
And when that day comes son
Awaiting and hoping for a meeting in the afterlife
I'll be waitin' and prayin'
Continuing to wait and pray
When the light goes off
Metaphorical reference to death or a significant event
In a world full of shit
Reiteration of the challenging nature of the world
I'm comin' fully equipped
Reiteration of being prepared for challenges
Mic in my hand
Repeating the image of holding a microphone and being relaxed
Blunt at my lip
Repeating the image of using substances
Kickin somethin never nothin see you bluffin always puffin rough and tough and stuffin my soul with the flow
Assertive and resilient, facing challenges with determination
The van down by the river
Reiteration of the van by the river theme
