Ashes, Ashes (ft. Kalligraphy)

  1. //Kalligraphy 0:00 0:48
  2. [Hail Marry, I match Ramon and them](This bar stacks eleven meanings at once —“Hail Mary” as Mother Mary in Catholicism, 1; “Hail Mary” as the desperation football throw, 2; “marry” as the idea of marriage, 3; “match” as to pair or join like marriage, 4; “match” as to equal or compete with someone, 5; “match” as a sporting game, 6; “match” as striking a match to ignite fire, 7; a reference to Ramon Laureano in baseball and the idea of hits or cheating, 8; Ramon Robinson connecting back to the Hail Mary pass, 9; “and them” extending the idea to other Ramons or competitors, 10; and the phonetic bend of “match Ramon” sounding like “matrimonial,” 11.)
  3. [This ring ain’t fit for two, I stick em](This line folds ten layers into one —“ring” as a wedding ring tied to fidelity and marriage, 1; “ring” as a boxing or wrestling ring, 2; “ring” as a baseball diamond, 3; “ring” as a championship ring symbolizing victory, 4; “ring” as the singular, exclusive “one ring” from LOTR, 5; “stick” as a bat used for hitting in baseball, 6; “stick” as a stab or blade attack, 7; “stick” as a stick up or robbery threat, 8; “stick” as humbling or defeating someone, 9; and “stick” as stopping or punishing an adulterer who intrudes on a marriage, 10.)
  4. [Aw man, I’m the fruits of makin hittings](This bar stacks eight meanings —“Aw man” as a homophone of “Amen” closing a prayer, 1; “Aw man” as a casual exclamation or lament, 2; “fruits” echoing “fruit of thy womb” tied to Mary and biblical motherhood, 3; “fruits” as results or rewards you produce, 4; “fruits” as literal fruit and imagery of growth or abundance, 5; “hittings” as baseball hits, 6; “hittings” as rap hits or successful songs, 7; and “hittings” as violent hits like punches or takedowns, 8.)
  5. [Except when they cheat, I still make winnings](This line layers six meanings —“cheat” as PEDs and steroid use tied to the Ramon Laureano scandal, 1; “cheat” as infidelity within the marriage theme, 2; “cheat” as dishonesty or corruption in the game or industry, 3; “winnings” as sports victories, 4; “winnings” as rap or music success through charts, money, or accolades, 5; and “still” carrying a biblical or spiritual sense of calm dominance and unwavering stillness, 6.)
  6. [From baby showers to 80 flowers at my final hour](from the womb to the tomb. I’ll be ringing noise even in my grave or in my coffin where they’ll lay 80 flowers on it for me.)
  7. [I’ll be writing power that generates the electric towers](even when I am deceased, I will still be making contributions to the world. Whether it is four people, two certain people for the world in general to be a better place. My name was still ringing out.)
  8. [Yeah, like, don’t worry me and CD are two of the most ruthless](probably the most simple bar in this entire verse, but I am just flexing that me and CoinDrop our power houses that are ruthless and won’t halt for anyone)
  9. [Is it an evil illusion or evolution, the minds pollution](evil illusion is homophonic for evolution. Also include some religious themes, like how some religious people do not believe in evolution. And they see it as an evil illusion. The minds pollution is how some religious brains get fogged up by some different perspectives they were raised up upon.)
  10. [If you don’t mine, where you get the jewels you using](this part is there anybody flexing that they are wearing diamonds, chains, watches basically anything with diamonds on them. The reason why I am saying this is because people who are forced to do labouring for someone or mining up these diamonds and you are wearing them. They may be poor, but we are spiritually poor)
  11. [Only me and CD are the two who be congruent](congruent plays on some math linguistic stuff. It will be relevant in the next bar where I expand on some mathematical metaphors)
  12. [If the shoe don’t shine or the function don’t sine](meaning that if the sun doesn’t shine, or the artist worthy of being popular isn’t getting fame, then there is a problem. Meaning that the demons probably have altered reality. A function in math can be sine, in which the function looks wavy. So if everything is skewed, then the function will appear straight, meaning it will appear false)
  13. [Then know you were surprised by the un divine](only Satan is capable of trying to put somebody’s life down by torturing their minds with illusions and other things)
  14. [Believe me, I’ve seen the TVs and screens each week](in news broadcasts and other places in the world where bad things can be shown to the public.)
  15. [The shady dreams and paper reams feed your weak teeth](shady dreams, represent bad thoughts, which shape some people‘s whole mental image, paper reams is another way of saying money in which feeds us. But the weak teeth plays on the fact that the stuff that is affordable for the poor affects the body and teeth because the products are made without care or caution. So they ruin the body)
  16. [Calligraphy demon, categorizing the seven seasons](play on my name. Also, the seasons here represent the seven angels of revelation. And how each angel will bring disasters or plagues, which will change varying the angel a.k.a. how season change)
  17. [Calm ya breathing in the presence of my heavenly teachings](do not hyperventilate or be nervous I speak because I only give wisdom and things you can take away. I am the moral of every story.)

  20. Yeah uh, ugh,
  21.  
  22. //Coindrop 1:14
  23. Doing time behind these bars with no key when I'm locked in,
  24. Longest sentences for the time I use with punches once I clock in,
  25. Cracked my case, battery charges, and my cell was full but sat apart of
  26. Gang units each having having marks on them, and covered by tattoo parlors;
  27. In love with this body of work, but never go frame
  28. The picture I'm painting, I'll spin your records to hate,
  29. Spread propaganda, make you lose control on the web attacking pacifist,
  30. Won't cut ties and loop the whole process backtracking narratives;
  31. And when this ghost logs in and sees these files corrupted,
  32. Systems override with nothing but hacking like I was cutting,
  33. The rest dawned on me, beat with rhythm till you snap and then you wanna dance
  34. Destroy your mind and break the news to all your friends;
  35. See the line and crossed it, cut it short and tell you to hang it up, and
  36. Having my control connects with power without wasting punches,
  37. We act out in this game, you can joke but I ain't playing
  38. When I say you ain't stopping my goals incoming to my net making;
  39. Blend in like a chameleon, laughing but no comedians,
  40. My style is wild like graffiti, defeating me is inconceivable,
  41. I'm similar to the Queen bee, and I play my cards up the sleeve, when it's
  42. Enemies with strategy, I influence my peace with it;
  43. And go in any direction with it, move freely like a bohemian,
  44. Like Queen be with it, we'll rock you with every beat we get,
  45. With rhapsody, rap study with my rap buddies who act ually
  46. Have nothing but pas siona tely craft something master fully;
  47. Me and my clone jaywalking, I'm double crossing everyone,
  48. Cuz I think outside of gay boxes with hit or miss projections,
  49. Fuck sandman, you’re on Elm Street, nightmares won't start bashing you
  50. Until you're in the yard, you’ve seen the park, haven't you?
  51. Y'all don't have appeal unless you're a buyer of drugs,
  52. To think you cleaned the mess of wretches that's prior to us,
  53. You'll be feeling stressed inside your car after I rile you up,
  54. And you'd see me wrestle drunks outside these bars like Shia LaBeouf;
  55.  
  56. //2:53
  57. Ring around the rosie,
  58. A pocket full of posies,
  59. Ashes, ashes,
  60. We all burn like souls below me;
  61. I said ring around the rosie,
  62. Got a pocket full of posies,
  63. Ashes, ashes,
  64. They all burn like souls below me;
  65. ...
