Running With A Gun
Rebellion Beats: Unveiling Society's Strife in 'Running With A Gun'
Lyrics
His name is johnny he's got nothing to say
Johnny has nothing significant to communicate.
He's just a bad ass mutha getting' in your face
Johnny is a bold and confrontational figure.
You better hang you head low
People should lower their heads in response.
Low to the ground
Emphasizing being humble and grounded.
'cause we're droppin' mad tracks
Creating impactful music until they feel the vibes.
Until we're feelin' the sound
Exploring the connection between music and emotion.
It's the rhymes and the rhythms that you're used to
Sticking to familiar rhymes and rhythms.
With the one-two beats you can dance to
Reference to danceable beats with a one-two pattern.
To see the people everywhere in the streets
Observing people in the streets, possibly facing challenges.
Doin' time in the jail and whatcha wanta do cause you're
Addressing life in jail and the choices one faces.

Repetition of the theme - engaging in dangerous activities.
Running with a gun

Continuation of the repetition, reinforcing the theme.
Running running
-Running with a gun
-Running with a gun
-Running running
Reiterating the risky behavior of carrying a gun.
Running with a gun in his hand
Highlighting the presence of a gun in Johnny's hand.
All of a sudden I said could you believe
Expressing disbelief at societal corruption and anger.
All the corruption and the anger in a society
Reflecting on the negative aspects of society.
But the man his stand is near
Indicating that change is imminent with someone standing up.
Whipping us all
Someone is causing harm, possibly in authority.
All it's armies and it's leaders
Referring to powerful entities and leaders facing consequences.
Startin' to fall
Acknowledging the downfall of these powerful figures.
No, you don't know
Highlighting ignorance about the urgency of the situation.
No, you don't know
Reiterating the lack of awareness about the current situation.
What time it is
Uncertainty about the timing of events.
10 seconds flat said it's what it would take
Specifying a short time frame for action.
To make you move don't hesitate
Encouraging quick movement without hesitation.
With the eyes and the cameras that are watching around
Being watchful, with surveillance and scrutiny all around.
The enemy is near
Identifying an imminent threat in the vicinity.
And you're to be found
Stating that individuals will be discovered by the enemy.
Dead or alive
Emphasizing the seriousness of the situation, risking life.
Make no mistake
Advising not to underestimate the consequences.
They're gonna blow your punk ass away
Predicting severe consequences for one's actions.
'cause you're
Repetition of the theme - engaging in dangerous activities.
