I have a feeling most of the people watching this video know exactly what he is metaphorically describing; this song is an alarmingly accurate depiction of heroin (or an opiate) addiction. Trust me if you like this search for James Brown - Public Enemy - it is equally as amazing.
yooo ive been thru EVERYSINGLE THING HE SAYS dope sickness is the WORSE thing any one can go thru yo theres no way hes not a junkie hes knows waaaaaay to much about withdrawls
he maid this song becaus i still remember when vivica a foxx was doing a movie near lambared st. we was yelling her name and asked her if she can tell 50 tht he had hella love from bmore city....2 bad i will never see her again....I SWEAR .....I LOVE U VIVICA A.FOX
im an 16 year old rapper trying to come up and i need your help and support i love doing my music and i can only do this and get better if you guys take a look at my vids and subscribe to my page im nothing without you guy so help me be something thanks
I drive down bmore . edmonson ave, once a week for alittle boi. bmore has some of the best smack in the east coast. period. ive seen mad weight move around. kids selling $10,000 packs in just a days time. staples bags off edmonson. best shit around
@Shadow155 No problem bruh, im from baltimore. 50 is the shit. im glad he made a song about bmore, usually around this way boys get holes in their head for coming too far south for their own good. when he was in the game he probably came to baltimore sometimes to cop our prime real estate. much love to 50, he goes hard as shit
I don't like 50 cent but this is a sick song, he has ability if he talks bout things that matter ... 'I got you barefooted on glass, chasing the dove, that monkey on your back symbolises my love'
wow i live in baltimore n i cant believe some one made a song about the number one drug around here lol thats crazy i dident think it was that bad ummm but i guess i was way wrong or am just used to being around drugs a lot idk :)
It took so long for me too explain that he is not talking about loving a girl. He is talking as if he is the voice of the herion telling the girl who is a addict why she needs it in her body.
well its pretty easy to tell what he talking about when the song 1st started he says "im not a genny in a bottle i come in a bag:" then he talking bout a girl that use to be a crack addtic n he says in the next bar "go ahead tie that band put the in your arm" so pretty much from them bars you already know what the song about. but if you 1st hearing this you think he talking about a relationship on some real shit
i first heard of this song on radio bam. i love how this song flows. i can tell why brandon novak loves this song. check out his book Dreamseller. the story of a heroin addict. i can't wait for my copy to come thru the mail.
you have to have been a heroin addict to really feel this. What broought us together was fate, and we gonna be hand in hand when you walk thru those pearly gates. And to see to that Ima do whatever it takes. thats real as fuck you cant fuck with that
Anyone who thinks 50 cent sucks needs to listen to this. The whole song is a metaphor! He's talking about being heroin and seeing the life of one of his girls (a heroin addict). It took me a while to decipher this song, but when i figured it out, i realize that this is genius.
@cherishshanae hes not talkin bout being heroin but about being addicted nd withdraws to it nd likin coke to but love heroin...its not hard to figure out
he should have came to baltimore to give yahall a visual the shit i seen on a day to day basis was to fucking crazy the money the fiends every thing niggas ordering cars like rich in allpo not to say other cities not seeing the same but we known for sex money and murder
LETS MAKE A DATE PROMISE ME U'll come n see me..even if it means ull have to sell ya mamas tv..I LOVE U LOVE ME BACK NO ONE SAID LOVN ME'd b ez hahah....HE KILT IT...PPL CANT LIE
If u have a child ill already be in love with ya kid... Heard she bisexual, she fuck with that girl, but boy oh boy fuckin with mes a whole nother world.... promise me youll come and see me, even if u have to sell ya mothers tv. Great song jay did it better though lyrics tone and of course phareal
The song's okay, but it's not original. Cam'ron did a song like this one his first album, Nas did one where he's a gun, there's others I'm sure. The real problem is how whack the video is. Plus a lot of the lyrics is whack when u really listen.
I disagree..its very original, because he did it for the sake of the H epidemic in BALTIMORE, and the other dudes jus did it u feel me...and its original bcus cams version i dnt evn think was about H it was bout weed, n nas's was about bein a gun, SO 50 was pretty original ..
cam's song clearly makes reference to massive sniffing, and you don't sniff weed... I hope. Yes, Nas was about a tech, but the whole personification is not very original. It's been done, and not that this is bad, but it's been done better.
I mean long as the song is good and you like it if you don't you don't. I mean Jay-z Came out with the same thing as this "I know" Feat. Pharrell and it was pretty popular. Not everyone is gonna come out with something just new and undiscovered. He can add his own style which he did.
my fav part is wen he says relapse - ur back bitch don't ever do that again. lol. I love it. I been wit rock stars see u lucky im fuckin wit you. 50 is wild.
ok....Nas first made a song about bein a gun, then 50 make a song about bein heroin, and now Pharoahe Monch made a song about bein a bullet...damn is this what rappers are comparin themselves nowadayz
ok why are u complaining about what I said? I didn't ask for ur opinion I know what the hell the song is about...so don't be callin nobody dumbass...and yea my username is that b/c that's what the fuck I listen to...Hip Hop nigga!
