In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock on with my bad self 'cause it's a must
It's the Lady Of Rage, still kicking up dust
So umm, let me loosen up my bra strap
And umm, let me boost ya with my raw rap
'Cause I'ma break it down to the nitty-gritty one time
When it comes to the lyrics I gets busy with mine
Busy as a beaver, you best believe-a
This grand diva's runnin' shit with the speed of a cheetah, meet a
Lyrical murderer, I'm servin' 'em like two scoops of chocolate
Check it how I rock it
I'm the one that's throwin' bolos, ya better roll a Rolo
To find out I'm the number one solo, uh
The capital R-A now take it to the G-E
I bring the things to light, but you still can't see me
I flow like a monthly you can't cramp my style
For those that try to punk me, here's a Pamprin child
No need to say mo', check the flow
Rage in effect once mo', so now ya know
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
Now I'm hittin MC's like Hadouken
Ain't no doubt about it, I'm the undisputed
So what you uhh, wanna do is back on up
I'll tap that butt, wax the cuts, pass the bucks
So put your money on the bread winner
I kick lyrics so dope that the brothers call 'em head spinners
I got the tongue that has outdone anyone
From the rising to the setting of the sun
Or the moon, I consume the room with doom
When I hear the kick of a 808 bass, boom
Boom, bam, God, damn
I'm hittin' so hard you could say it's a grand slam, dunk, punks
Get broken off for chunk when they feel the funk
Of the rhythm (fresh) that I give 'em
Let it hit 'em, split 'em, did it now I'm rid of 'em, yeah
I put that on my unborn kids
Rage in effect so you know how it is
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
Now ever since my debut, I've continued to lay you
Flat on your back from the raps that I spat, spit
Oh shit, I'm the shit
You can't get with the Rage then tough tit-ty
I pi-ty the fool, that gets
With the lyrical murderer 'cause my shit is rude (ooh)
You wanna get with the wickedness, with that
Big batti girl that's kickin it, rippin' it apart like Jason
You'll be chasin' a dream like Freddy
Are you ready for the cream de la crème?
I'm steam pressuring those who ain't measuring up
I keep competitors stuck
In the muck with they butt up, what you wanna nut up
Like cashew, don't you know that I will mash you? For real
That's the deal, I'm straight out of Farmville, VA
(So what you gotta say?)
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self

Yeah, 1-9-9-4
The indo blow and the grass grow
Snoop Doggy Dogg, still don't love a ho
But you gotta give credit where credit is due
Women, back down and bow down to my motherfuckin' homegirl
The Lady Of Rage
She rocks rough and stuff with the afro puffs
Handcuffed and she busts
And trick biatch, she's guaranteed to tear shit up
You know what I'm sayin'?
Rock on witcha bad self
I rock rough and stuff with my afro puffs (Rage!)
Rock on witcha bad self

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.
