This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
featuring Afu Ra
Afu: Yo 'are you
Jeru: Yo whassup?
Afu: Yo come here come here. Yo let's freak that rhyme we was freakin'
the other night
Jeru: I'm sayin' I'm with it just set it off
Afu: Yo after this there's no turning back
Jeru: I'm saying just set it off!
Physical paralysis open your chest like a chalice
MCs couldn't strike movements we wish to brandish
I'm tormentin' mind states lyrical warrior
I flow through, fuck the mic I fuckin' floor ya
Headlocks and armlocks, necks is gettin' broken
No jokin', format'll leave your whole borough smokin'
Fist of five rings, I fling MCs to the gutter
Samurai sharp, more deadly than box-cutters
Ultimate, as I emit your death blow
Perverted Monks, and Jeru with the combo
Peter Piper picked peppers
And Run rocked rhymes but now he rock hymns
I got G through mama
the physical extremities
Indomitable
The spirit can't be broken
But jaws are broken
And even backs are broken
Think you're on point, well let your points of pressure open
Foot and fist got your head hangin' open
The breath rebirth
I damage in the mental and physical universe
You quake the earth when you hit face-first
Brake before it gets worse
But those that thirst for abuse get loose
'Cause soon I'll be around that neck tight like a noose
God, show improvement
More than the Juggernaut
Electric like Magneto
Know you couldn't test Mental, or now the sequel
I slip to the floor for the grapple
I crack your collarbone, while I bust your Adam's apple
Spleens get ripped out the backs of your raps
Broken-down fractions as you start to make actions
It's too elusive, how I'm quicker than Bruce's
Silver surfin', the universe is now its astrological
As I proceed in my vehicle
You can't stop it
Fiber-optic, so you watch it
Sophistry, with so much fury
You can't get with me
Fight scenes are left bloody
Poisonous,
My thoughts make plates shift
Some may call this tectonics
But airwaves from miles I boil by my sonics
It's ironic, got MCs hooked on phonics
So physical styles I construct like bionics
Displaced joints like Shaolin should not
Furious roundhouses cause bones to splinter
Protect your feet, legs, midsection and neck
'Cause I'm here to let you know it's not just on MPEGs
We wrecks, and more than just figuratively
Let it be known that we bringin' it physically
And the effect is bodily harm
No chance to pull your firearm
For the body move swift and the mind stay calm
Ways shift like the moment before the storm
Watch my form
It's deadly
Come to close it could get bloody
And ugly
You think that you could stop me?
Perverted monks, so now we apply pressure
This Stamina's style is iller than its predecessor
Dial witch professor, mix up the elixir
Internal power, MCs we devour
Afu: Yo 'are you
Jeru: Yo whassup?
Afu: Yo come here come here. Yo let's freak that rhyme we was freakin'
the other night
Jeru: I'm sayin' I'm with it just set it off

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
