Now little Terry got a gun he got from the store
He bought it with the money he got from his chores
He robbed the candy shop, told her "lay down on the floor
Put the cookies in the bag, take the pennies out the drawer"
Little Khalil got a gun he got from the rebels
To kill the infidels and American devils
A bomb on his waist, a mask on his face
Prays five times a day and listens to heavy metal
Little Alex got a gun he took from his dad
That he snuck into school in his black book bag
His black nail polish, black boots and black hat
He gon' blow away the bully that just pushed his ass...
I killed another man today,
Shot him in his back as he ran away,
Then I blew up his hut with a hand grenade,
Cut his wife's throat as she put her hands to pray
Just five more dogs then we can get a soccer ball,
That's what my commander say
How old? Well im like 10, 11
Been fightin' since I was like 6, or 7
Now I don't know much about where I'm from
But I know I strike fear everywhere I come,
Government want me dead so I wear my gun,
I really want the rocket launcher, but I'm still too young
This 'candy' give me courage not to fear no one,
To feel no pain and hear no tongue,
So I hear no screams and I shed no tear,
If I'm in your dreams, then your end is near,
Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We're calling you
There's a war, but the guns are just too tall for you,
We'll find you something small to use
Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We need you now,
[[Lupe in background]]
Astagfurallah,Astagfurallah,Astagfurallah,Astagfurallah,
Astagfurallah...
Now here comes the march of the boy brigade,
A macabre parade of the toys he made
and shemaghs and shades who look half his age,
About half the size of the flags they wave,
And camouflage suits made to fit youths,
'Cause the ones off the dead soldiers hang a little loose
With AK-47's that they shootin' into heaven,
Like they tryin' to kill the Jetsons
The struggle's little recruits
Cute, smile-less, heartless, violent
Childhood destroyed, devoid of all childish
Ways, can't write they own names
Or read the words that's on they own graves,
Think you gangsta, popped a few rounds?
The kids'll come through and murder a whole town,
Then sit back and smoke and watch it burn down,
The grave gets deeper the further we go down,
Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We're calling you
There's a war, but the guns are just too tall for you
We'll find you something small to use
Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We need you now
Imagine if I had to console
The family's of those slain and slayed on game consoles,
I aim, I hold, right trigger to squeeze,
Press up and Y, one less nigga breathe,
B for the bombs, press pause for your moms,
Make the room silent, she don't approve of violent
Games, she leave, resume activity
Starred and blue hearts of card shark wizardry,
On the next part I, insert code
To sweeten up the little person's murder workload,
I tell him he work for CIA with "A"
A operative, I operate this game all day
I hold the controller, connected to the soldier,
With weapons on his shoulder,
He's only seconds older,
Than me,
We: playful but serious,
Now keep that online for online experience
Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We're calling you
There's a war, but the guns are just too tall for you
We'll find you something small to use
Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We need you now
Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We're calling you
There's a war, but the guns are just too tall for you
We'll find you something small to use
Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We need you now

ReplyDeleteThen i blew up his hut with a hand grenade, Cut his wife's throat as she put her hands to pray.
This stood out to me, because he feel no pity for the woman.
Just five more dogs then we can get a soccor ball.
This sentence means that he gets prizes for killing more people. The more people dead, the better.
But I know I strike fear everywhere I come.
Tis stands out to me because grown adults are scared of a little boy.
Government want me dead so I wear my gun.
This shows how corrupt their government is, If the people don't fight they will most likely die.
This candy give me courage not to fear no one.
This stands out to me, because a little boy is doing a lot of drugs, and acting like it is a daily routine.
So i hear no screams and I shed no tear, If I'm in your dreams, then your end is near.
This means that he does not feel anything anymore.
The kids'll come through and murder a whole town, then sit back and smoke and watch it burn down
This stands out to me because i can just imagine little boys murdering everyone in a town, and as everything is being destroyed, they just sit back and relax.
Childhood destroyed, devoid of all childish ways, cant even write their own names, or read the words thats on they own grave.
This sentence means that little boys are being taught to kill, than little boys being taught to learn.
How old? Well im like 10, 11. been fightin since i was 6,7. This line reminds me of Ishmael.
ReplyDeleteThis 'candy' give me courage not to fear no one. Its is sad that they drug up children.
Theres a war, but the guns are just too tall for you We'll find you something small to use. They dont care about the age of the children they will just give him a small gun.
And camouflage suits made to fit the youths. The regular suits are too big, so they have custom suits for the children.
cute, smile-less, heartless, violent. They are describing children but the words arent what you would describe normal children with.
childhood destroyed, devoid of all childish ways, cant write they own names. The children have been robbed of their childhood and an education.
think you gangsta, popped a few rounds? The kids'll come through and murder a whole town. These kids are more gangsta then any 'gangsta' here.
To kill the infidels and American devils. This line reminds me of terrorist.
just five more dogs and we get a soccer ball. To enjoy some past time they have to kill more people.
Government want me dead so i wear my gun. They think everyone is against them just because of what they have been told.
Richard-
ReplyDelete"Now here comes the march of the boy brigade", to me means the little kids that have no choice but to join the war are coming. "camouflage suits made to fit youths", to me it means that the war has a lot of little children fighting in it. "The kids will come through and murder a whole town", This means that the rebel kids will come through and terrorize a whole town. "Government want me dead so I wear my gun", which means that the government will kill even children soldiers. "This 'candy' give me courage not to fear no one", this is that the drugs he takes makes him think he immortal. "Well im like 10, 11
Been fightin' since I was like 6, or 7", this means that the children in the war are about that age also. "Now I don't know much about where I'm from", This means that some kids were so young that they don't even remember how they got where they are. "About half the size of the flags they wave", this is saying that the kids are really small and still kill others. "Then sit back and smoke and watch it burn down", this means that the rebels who do this don't really care about what they had just done. "Little Weapon, Little Weapon, Little Weapon, We're calling you", this means that the weapon is the children going to war.
1. Now I don't know much about where I'm from
ReplyDeleteBut I know I strike fear everywhere I come,
they don't know what they are fighting for.
2.Little Khalil got a gun he got from the rebels

7.Then I blew up his hut with a hand grenade,
Cut his wife's throat as she put her hands to pray

8.I really want the rocket launcher, but I'm still too young
they keep getting more violent.
9.The kids'll come through and murder a whole town,

they feel no remorse because they don't know anything else.

'Cause the ones off the dead soldiers hang a little loose
all the men are dead so they recruit them younger and younger.
1. Little Terry got a gun he got from the store he bought it with the money he got from his chores. HE WAS WORKING HARD TO GET A GUN.
ReplyDelete2. Little Kahlil got a gun he got from the rebels. HE RECEIVED THE GUN FROM THE REBELS.

4.Government wants me dead so i wear my gun. THE GOVERNMENT WANTS HIM DEAD SO HIS GOING TO BE PREPARED FOR WAR.
5. Just five more dogs then we can get a soccer ball. IF HE SHOOTS FIVE MORE PEOPLE HE GETS A REWARD.

"To feel no pain and hear no toungue"

"With AK-47 shootin into heaven like they trying to kill the Jetsons."
"Shot him in the back as he ran away, Then blew up his hut with a hand grenade."

"The Kids'll come through and murder a whole town"

These parts get to me because kids so young shouldn't have to do all this just to survive. I wish those didn't have to experience stuff like that.
Angie!!!
ReplyDeleteI killed another man today.
This sentence caught my attention because I have heard it before and brings memories back.
He gon blow away the bully that just pushed his ass
This part in the lyrics is not a lie it’s an everday thing and it happens everywhere.
To feel no pain and hear no tongue
I picked this sentence because it remind me of all the people tht hate and nag on me. Honestly I can care less because at the end of the day it all gets silenced.
Been fighting since I was like 6 or 7
I also picked this from the lyrics because it brings back memories I’ve been fighting since I was a little youngster myself.
Government want me dead so I wear my gun
It’s not the government that wants me dead now it’s all my haters.
So I hear no screams and shed no tear
I want to be ableto silence the screams and stop the tears once and for all.
If im in your dreams your end is near.
Once my enemy’s see my vision there goners.
The struggles little recruits.
A life I once knew.
Imagine if I had to console.
I hate to do it for the sad things in life.
Cute, smile-less, heartless, violet
This was me once upon a time.
