Lyrical Analysis of...
LJ
- Walked in the building, mindin my business, just tryna get through the day,
- Then outta nowhere, he approach me, lookin like he got somethin to say,
- Ain’t even square up fair, nah, he rushed me, caught me off guard,
- Swing after swing, I’m fightin back but this shit got hard.
- He connect clean, I’m fallin back, crowd gatherin like it’s a show,
- Then out my pocket slipped the blade, now everybody gotta know,
- “Look what he got!” they yellin loud, now I’m the one on display,
- Whole school watchin, talkin crazy, like I’m the villain that day.
- I ain’t even get to use it, still, I’m the one they accusin,
- Teacher rushin, security grabbin, now I’m the one losin,
- They say I’m wrong, say I’m the problem, say I crossed the line,
- But they ain’t see what happened, or what was on my mind.
- Week pass, I’m back, but I ain’t the same
- Ain’t no smiles in my face, only hate and rage
- After school, I’m posted, waitin by the gate
- Seen him laughin with his boys, yeah, I knew this was the day
- Walked up calm, he ain’t think I’d react
- Soon as he turned his head—boom—I cracked
- Now he on the ground, I’m lettin loose, no breaks
- All that anger built up, yeah, it finally escaped
- People screamin, phones out, they recordin the scene
- But I ain’t even hear it, tunnel vision, all red beam
- He tried to cover up, but I ain’t lettin him breathe
- This the same pain you gave me, bitch, now you feelin me
- But it ain’t stop there, nah, shit got deep
- Next day, I hear his whole crew lookin for me
- Talkin reckless, sayin they gon jump me again
- I said, “bet that,” called my homeboys, now we ready for war then
- We outside, tension thick, air feel cold
- They roll up deep, yeah, I see ‘em all bold
- But my side slid through, now the odds evened out
- One wrong move, then it’s on, ain’t no talkin it out
- First punch thrown, then it turned to a storm
- Bodies collidin, chaos all in the form
- I’m duckin, swingin, hear the crowd yell loud
- Adrenaline hittin, I ain’t thinkin now
- One by one, they start backin away
- My crew still breathin, yeah, we won that day
- They ain’t expect we’d fight back like that
- Now they scattered, whole scene went flat
- We come to school next day, my mentality is dark
- Since this shit wasn't in school, we don't get in trouble, we played it smart
- I seen one of em pass by, my look challenged him to try
- But he just kept walking, he ain't givin no reply
- I got some cred, my reputation came back,
- All just cus I gave this kid the smack
- And the years pass by, but I remember that attack
- And since then, I don't show nobody no slack
