Blu - Til We Die

There's good, there's great, and then there's Blu. Don't let the lackadaisical spelling of his handle give you the impression that he's ignorant. It's actually quite the contrary, Blu has an singular style of syncing sentences in succession. Each line laces perfectly into the next creating a germane and continuous story. This track emphasizes his ability to do so. At first take it may appear a bit raw but as you dig in you'll note that tartare is truly a delicacy.

He plays with words creating double entendres to decimate his distaste for the music industry, society, and even his own actions. When I first heard this a lot of the meaning went over my head but I sat down with headphones on and really started to dig in. I could break down every line and explain the meaning I got from it, but I think this bar really sums up how powerful Blu can be;

Couldn’t believe I was really bout to father a child
When all of this foul
World girls are brought up in now
All the options
Cloggin and crowdin'
Little Knoggins'
With products instead a knowledge
Unbalanced
And it bothers nobody cause she fine as hell
So she whine’s/wine's
And dines
And tells more lies
Trynna find herself





Lyrics: Blu - Til We Die

Laugh now
Cry never
Never mind, nice guys finish fine
I guess
Forever fly, Used to be fresh
But now I’m wise
Guy's
Try to imply
Like I should optimize on lies and cries
I find it harder now to author nouns than sounds
It’s like
Couldn’t believe I was really bout to father a child
When all of this foul
world girls are brought up in now
All the options
Cloggin and crowdin'
Little Knoggins'
With products instead a knowledge
Unbalanced
And it bothers nobody cause she fine as hell
So she whine’s/wine's
And dines
And tells more lies
Trynna find herself
I Fell on my knees today to find myself
And it helps when It ain’t no one around to tell the truth to
When I’m not have the God I used to be
Useful
Who be?
Used to say
You the truth too
Now I’m just Truthful
Truthfully it hurts
Usually worse
it Used to be worse
Running from comfort
Cause I wouldn’t conform, or convert
Now I just converse
About how much love hurts
And how good God is
And how much I want more for my kids
Cause life is not fair
But it does not stop there
Do what you got til you drop
But don’t trip my dear
Cuz God’s here
Right here

[Verse 2:Blu]
Whatever you be on is you nigga
remember
Whatever I be on the good God got me on
I trot alone through the winter
Jottin' home in poems
Trynna remember the warmth when the storms pass
Blue skies
Sunshine my minds forecast
its Not like I was born last week
but peep my format
My perspective gets deep
My lessons have been collectin' like Blessings
The exchange rate is beautiful too
Proving that truth can override anything but love
So God Bless you
A timeless
Life a
Stressin' this fight with lust
I try to put my life love up above you but
God
Mom
Music
Movies
Movin' the world with a duty to truly be something worthy of
Lavish ass pad's
Wit cars
And all kinds devices
Must be nice if happiness is priceless
Right
Price my life
An y'all can have the Range, bright lights and fame
For some change even exchange if your souls intact
An it’s hard to beat that with a bat
Most cats get wit this
It’s 08 jack
I stick wit that
Boom bap mind state
96 mind flip, get money
Other than that
We praise God
Sometimes I play y'all
Never did play cards or
Video games
I was eight trynna navigate principle aim
Multiplin' my visual game
By my spiritual gain
Divin truth by pain
Still steerin' the plane
Like the pilots do
Sun shinin
and the sky is Blu
So high
Wave hi we just ridin' through
No titles, No idols, No pride
No time to prove to you why we fly we just do US
And we trust that you do you
That’s what we was brought up to do
