Swerve Lyrics

(Hey, yo, lemme tap with the homies real quick, ha-ha
Yeah, you got this, baby, hey, you ready for this?
Hey, hey, hey, Coby, lemme hit this one time
Lemme get this right here, yo, watch this
Fuck you, Tony)

Bitch, don't play with us
We're far too dangerous
End up with a noose around your neck
Tryna hang with us
Better give up or we'll take you down
Watch the crown
Get us started then it's over, blau!
Make a statement, say it loud
Fuck the game and then takе a bow
That's right, got you running for your life
Got you praying on your knees
That you make it through the night
Yеah, you're stepping in the wrong place at the wrong time
Walking right into the knife
Are you stupid? Are you blind?
Are you stupid? Are you blind?
(Hey) Am I talking to you clearly?
(Ho) 'Cause I don't think you hear me

We see it how we call it, don't swerve in my lane
Motherfuckers going all in, don't swerve in my lane
So you better be cautious
'Cause I will never hesitate if you swerve in my lane
We see it how we call it, don't swerve in my lane
Motherfuckers going all in, don't swerve in my lane
So you better be cautious
I will never hesitate if you swerve in my lane

It's like you need the hype
All that bullshit in your life
Got you talking evil-like
You know you can't pay the price
Why you even tryna control me, posing like a trophy?
We're not affiliated in any way
You don't know me

"X" on my chest, mark the spot, I'm a target
I'm not from this earth, E.T., I'm a Martian
Fuck with my money, put his face on milk cartons
Welcome to the jungle, she my Jane and I'm Tarzan, aye
Sub-Zero, finish him, Mortal Kombat
Skirt off in this Beamer, I'ma leave him like a mile back
My brother made a box from a dime bag
Now we're eating good, hey, pockets playing lineback

So back up or it's bang, bang, bang
Get smacked up if you ain't gang, gang, gang

We see it how we call it, don't swerve in my lane
Motherfuckers going all in, don't swerve in my lane
So you better be cautious
'Cause I will never hesitate if you swerve in my lane
We see it how we call it, don't swerve in my lane
Motherfuckers going all in, don't swerve in my lane
So you better be cautious
I will never hesitate if you swerve in my lane
(Bitch)

Cover art for Swerve lyrics by Papa Roach

Short: (Traumatized young men write a song to look tough, but every verse shows their fear and insecurities. Leaves little to no room for interpretation.) Long: Nothing says "I want to look tough and cool but I'm actually just very young and sad" like "So back up or it's bang bang bang get smacked up if you ain't gang, gang, gang" (shoot anyone who comes here and isn't in my little gang). So a 90's rap gangster song that teens/20yos write and want us to think it's cool. They also want us to think it's cool to be "quick to kill anyone who "messes with us"." In reality it's clear they are just hurting inside and this is like a juvenile way to disguise it. This song leaves very little way to interpret it other than sad young people copying other sad young ppl gangster rap songs. Some songs just have lyrics that are very shallow, materialistic, and immature and this is just one of them. It wants attention from all the sad kid egos. And all of this is okay, as everyone is allowed to handle their trauma in their art in their own way. We could say oh, this is just a terrible, awful cringe song (lol). But from a mature perspective, making fun of them and their trauma doesn't make sense. While it's obviously not a song for those of us who have grown and healed, bless the writer's hearts, they're just expressing their feelings in the only way they know how, and letting them vent is the best gift we fellow humans have given them. 💗
