Some1 please explain how the third verse fell off hes jst explaining how shooter games corrupt the minds of young children and make them want to go out and get a real gun and kill
@MeZmoRiiZeXx It fell off because Lupe did two verses about REAL WARS using children as soldiers, not computer games where a kid holds a control and pulls a trigger. And they hardly corrupt young children's minds, people have been using that as an excuse to prevent seizures and makes sure kids don't stay up all night playing their Xbox or whatever.
@mhawkins221 Lupe isn't pointing out that games corrupt the minds of children, exactly.
What he's actually pointing out is the twisted situation. How in First World countries kids play shooters which emulate the horrors that children in the Third World have to actually commit.
I personally think the third verse is incredibly powerful. A reminder that he isn't trying to say that child soldiers are cool or G or anything like that. They live in hell.
he was explaining how kids in life now dont actually have to live that life but its portrayed in video games so that has something to do with the kids today and why they think its cool and hes comparing it to the kids living in that lifestyle
can someone explain the last verse to me? Song is about kids and how they're in wars and whatnot. Last one is about kids playing war games while kids are out there actually living that life?
@HunterLucasm the way i interpret the 3rd verse is that he's talking about confronting families of the people they slayed and murdered. But to them it's just a game, thus the whole analogy with gaming system. As far as the "mom" walkin into the room. I see that this way, sometimes you will hear about things like this in the news, but media quickly silences it all by turning their back on what's really happening, and they just go back to killing and murdering people. that's just my interpretation
@HunterLucasm Its basically how he interprets whats going on like when he says, 'with weapons on his shoulder, he's only seconds older than me'. Its just a little addition to it i think :)
yeah why the hell would yo usay your fuckin emo over a rap song. i fuckin hate emos, you guys should be happy your fuckin alive. being alive is better then bein dead.
@justinmoore29 lol you crazy as fuck.... let them be emo that aint got shit to do wit you yes they shud be happy alive if you are good for you i am good for me.. but you never know what they going through in there life so yea --- ---- AND GOOD Job to Whoever put this up few errors but who doesnt make mistakes sometimes
@Ftwitsflare yeah no i've been through some serious shit. i've had all 6 problems that anyone could deal with. lost my dad, lost my house, some friends have ditched me. all that shit and i've kept my head up high. you just need to think of possitive things and shit bein emo just doesnt make no sense to me
@justinmoore29 lol you crazy as fuck.... let them be emo that aint got shit to do wit you yes they shud be happy their alive if you are good for you i am good for me.. but you never know what they going through in there life so yea --- ---- AND GOOD Job to Whoever put this up few errors but who doesnt make mistakes sometimes
@dumbocantfly lol WERD >_< but nah some i am aware of a few who go to my school who say they are EMo.. .and they always ... but werd thats true .. after they past that stage in there life usually they will call them selves but i dont know why he would put that here LOL
@BloodRope217 Emo? So you're sad? Depressed? What's Emo? Is it like White? Or black? Are you an idiot too? Emo is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. You've shortened an adjective and made it a label. Congrats. 30 years from now will you still be Emo? Is it something you're stuck with? Is it terminal?
@tjb9407 I agree. "I'm EMO" Is a stupid phrase, comment, statement and if included as describing what someone is; it is stupid a long with the sentence. It's over used and just plain ignorant and avoidable. I could understand if someone said "I'm Punk." Or maybe even "I'm screamo" But "I'm Emo"? Wow. That's dumb.
hell yeah like most people dnt really listen to wat he says his songz alwayz have a message. hes so lyrical the man is just a genius i his rymes r mad ill and he doesn't get the reconition he deserves
all u guys that r like nikkie jeans a gurl well duh she does the chorus the little weapon little weapon were callin u part not the little terry got a gun part and hes right so jusz chill leave the info to the real lupe luvers
ok there's been alot of debating and i would like it if someone told me if nikkie jean is doing the hook or not and provide me with a source of information
wooooah nikki jean is doin tha hook??????????? woooooooooow i had no fuckin idea i thought it wus jus a simulated voice or sum shyt or another artist hahaha wooow i mean i've heard nikki jean on other tracks n not jus tha ones on tha cool but i guess she's jus usin a voice box or sum shyt lol cause tht dn't sound shyt like her...still a good track one of my favs good job lupe,nikki jean, an real big ups to bishop G,he fuckin murdered his verse keep it up
umm im pretty sure the hook is lupe fiasco, cuz its from kids with guns and all they did was take that and computerize it but maybe it was nikkie jean
lupe is probably one of tha best rappers alive no doubt bout tht BUT lil wayne is also a very good rap artist,u cn't jus dis tha mans work,he's been grindin hard n doin wut he does to gain a well based audience,his music appeals to certain types of ppl,jus like lupe's music appeals to certain types of ppl,u cn't jus discredit a man's work because a rapper who actually has meaning in his lyrics cums along,lupe is one of my favorite rappers of all time but u gotta respect them both for workin hard
that beat is something from the military.... but can't remember the name of what it is called, its sounds fucking sick! if someone can help me, i would appreciate it
