E-Dubble - Running With Blades Lyrics
[Hook:]
No razor blade under the tongue
No noose tied round my neck
I tied a shoestring to that knife
And prayed one day I would feel that threat
So I put the knife on that shelf
I had become what I feared the most
Looking in the mirror I don't see myself
It's grayscales, recongnition is permissive
And right now it seems that I don't really have permission
I tied my hands by myself with my mouth
Now I'm bound by my words and
And they bound to come out
Top down's not an issue
Puglistic fit
Nuts enough to go Kliscko. 85 and 0
Tryna ohh, potato vodka's a no, no, so
I try to keep it one hunid sitting in the burbs
Where nobody recognizes me, lacking on the herb
So replace it with another vice
Legal kind this time, enough to kill a horse off
Warsaw type crime
Embellish til' I'm Belly up, absent tee problems
I've been fighting with myself for 10 years to try and solve them
82 to 2012 build up to the grandiose
They think I'm a replicant, wait until the overdose
Of overeducated, never hesitated extroverts
Public servants serving the public that's just a fucking joke
4 years can't start a revolution
So fuck a presidential election let's let em' boo em'
Til' the PAC funds dry up, Cold Bears rise up
Christie when I bully shit, Obama when I wise up
My trigger fingers for the varmints when I'm feeling gully
The bigger picture still can linger but it's getting blurry
[Hook]
Lonestar state, ready for whatever fightin' pennsatucky luck
I'll trade a bullet for a sweater
...never hate, cuz' my cheeks stay turnt
Even though I been burnt keep the swagger on learnt
on my own two feet... I cut these teeth
I get aggy I get sad, I get happy I eat beef
Dodge chickens... respect and love women
At the bottom of the barrel the pharoh is not living
Not blessed by no fraud, but blessed to stay hard
Knock off any chest that's pressed to bogart
No flexing, no jawing, chuck bark don't start
Put the SNL cast on blast when I star
musical guest, and comical host
Cue cards are not cute, the drugs dope
But not mine... this script is unkind
So passionately natural with buds of my kind
I smoke that new hope, turn that next page
I'll blaze on the day when I feel we're all paid
reperations for those that can't say it
Philip k. dick dickens for those who hate hate
I love who love's love, the next day will come
Pray to your god, I pray to that sun, in that way I'm frayed no star and no funds
The kool aid is done, who stays and who run's
[Hook]

"victimless crimes"
Victimless crimes... So fucking deep
You should hear the version of this that I have. It's awesome like cod
Nothing frustrates me more than edub's death... Fuck that shit... Rest easy edub :(
I think the last line of the last verse: "the Kool aid is done, who stays and who runs" is a reference to the jonestown massacre, where they put cyanide in Kool aid for a pretty forced suicide, those who stayed died a painful death from cyanide, those who ran had thought they were in the clear until they were shot just before boarding the aeroplane out.
I can't believe it's been 2 years already rip e-dubble I will always miss you
I have become what I feared the most, looking in the mirror I don't see myself
Rest in peace
such a shame e dub was just going into his prime #RIPedubbble
I just wish that Edubble could still be alive. Like the whole rumor with Elvis. I just wish that there was some sort of sign that he's alive
Mom died from cancer dog just got put down brother tried killing himself and now he's in jail...music changes it all
Shit man that must be really hard. I feel for ya
RIP E-Dubble. One of my favorite rappers of the 2010's:(
well there goes my repeat button...
is this some sick joke?
or just a non sick joke and a joke thats used on youtube alot?
coming back to the very first song i heard from you, your songs helped me through the worst of my times Rest In Piece you will be missed
#RIPe-dubble
I never realized it until recently but the cover art for Reset EP is actually edub when he was a kid
i also thought it was a random kid. My mind was blown when i discovered it
When you take a close look, you can actully tell the similarities
I only noticed because there was pictures of him as a kid in cycle of nightmares
Is this copyrighted?
@EggTerminator yes it is everything e-dubble made except freestyle Friday is copyrighted (he legit told me)
@Bwynn true. it also says copyright 2013 in the description
I think that I am tge only Serb that listens to e-dubb
+Tyler Tucker Holy guacamole
hampden parks?
Super late, but I'm assuming you mean Serbian? Nepricam ja bas dobro ali ja pricam srpski puno bolje. I'm a Serb, and have been listening to him since 2011.
nope ur not the only one, another fellow serb right here
@ShadoPandauin nice reference callout.
Out here in California, I haven't found anyone else that listens to edubble, except for the people who watch vanoss but haven't looked further for edubb lol I knew about edubb before vanoss. But I got my best friend to listen to it and he love it 🙂😄
Ayyy I'm from Cali too. I remember hearing Let Me Ohh on an intro to a Skyrim video when it first came out xD but Ive loved it ever since. Wish I heard it earlier.
+AzoaR I reeeeaaally wish I could go to Baltimore and see one of edubbs shows tho..😞😞 it's funny I would've been in 2nd grade if I'd listened to it when it came out 😂
From NorCal, first heard edub around freshman year from StraighUpKnife
hows it going fellow californian. i hope you were not affected by the recent fires
e-dubble for president instead :D
his job *WAS* being a bartender but he's now fully Rapper (as far as i know)
wood wink Well you know hè died right?
he put this before he died
he wrote this comment well before he died dude lol
Algum BR?
+MellinGames Olá
Probably my favorite song by Edub!
why is this not on soundcloud?
it is on sounlcloud
Deminous Must have been added recently but on his SoundCloud, the Reset album doesn't have "Running with blades".
this song really makes you think.....then again all his songs make you think..
+Francisco Hernandez yea make you think how you didnt find him sooner or how hes not on the radio
lol yeah
this is my life song.
Can someone explain this line to me? "tied a shoestring to that knife
and prayed one day I would feel that threat" From the context it seems he's talking about depression and suicide. Is this a reference to something?
He is. And I'm pretty sure he was going through a period of depression while he was making this album, and he lets his emotions show through his music. That's why many songs in the album have those tones.
There is nothing stopping him him from speaking/rapping (No razor blade under the tongue). There is nothing stopping him from propelling himself forward (No noose tied ‘round my kneck). He has now stopped waiting on an adversity to give him motivation to overcome it. He’s putting the knife down, and motivating himself.
@***** very.
@***** ...
+Gonchy D its *thread* as in the shoestring
There is 160 million reasons why Eminem is better, but then again two different categories they are in, it's just Eminem has more experience, E don't, but as E goes up so does Em.
em is better but i think higher of edubble and appreciate and enjoy his music more
so lets just compare dubstep to jazz shall we?
E-dubble = hip hop
Eminem = rap
you people should compare 2 types of the SAME music
+TheITzPsYcHo if you are such a eminem fanboy go listen to him..
What's this about?
An autistic boy named Arthur.
please let there be someone else in Scotland that listens to this, i can't find any of you. it's so lonely.
+1 I am from Scotland too
Where about's ?
@GiggityGoatGaming Edinburgh :D
I'm late for about 3 years but I ought to say that I went to Scotland from Cyprus a couple of months ago and stayed for almost a month. After edub passed away I'm listening to his music every fucking day.
+mario ch bro I didn't find out until 6 months ago and I'm from from Philly. I was young and if I heard him before I didn't relate. I'm 27 and he gets me through my day man.
I get so lost listening to this song, I just drift away in my thoughts.
@Brendan Symonds well no shit it's a username I was just making a joke of Chuck Norris
(Face-Palm) Shut the fuck up.
yo, guys can you quit it. you're flooding my inbox.
@Brendan Symonds How about you shut up
Can't stop listening to E-Dubble even after almost a year.
only ppl I know that know e dubble, are my mates from back in the Halo 3 days
i remember those days. Halo 3, Gears of War 2 and CoD 4. DAT NOSTALGIA.
+JoelDeWitt good times
I thought your profile pic was a swastica at first 😆
601 COMMENTER... btw fuck bob- deal with it bob.. Fuck....
Your pretty big in England
@Moss Grande I have, since his first freestyle Friday set, he's been circulating throughout parts of North and East London
+AfroNinjaX Parts of Yorkshire have heard of him aswell.
Ive only met one person who listens to him
I mean, I come from Lancashire and the only thing listened to here is grime, as in the "I raped your little sister" shit.
I guess im moving to england
Well by the looks of past comments, apparently any source of exposure of this artist in other media seems to be a bad thing...
He's better than eminem and macklemore :P
Antonio P. Macklemore is trash
always great tracks dude keep up the good work.
that explains alot
I got hacked...
how did you start your music career?
sure thing, mate
people dont appreciate good rappers anymore
because of my sub?
This album should have taking my time and let me oh
Well thats your oppinion.
No you stayed because of your good taste of music. But how did you com here?
From history book's. Illuminati was/is old society. Why any celebrites havent sayd anything about illuminati? because they have nothing to do with it!
Where did you get the basis for your statement?
illuminati have nothing to do with celebrites.... it one of the oldest secret society's
Macklemore is shit
Are you fuckin serious!?
and hopsin and more but i get your point. I agree
Finally, somehow who has the same opinion on rappers :D
that eye in S illuminati ?
e-Dub is a rapist!??!
It's not even speedy that plays him -_-
*least best ;)
I would vote this up, but you have 69 votes
were all here because E-DUBBLE
how the hell did HE bring you here?
He is actually 7 foot tall its crazy a rapper with gigantism but he's still mag fav
e-dubble has no "worst" song. He only has least great songs. (English is not my first language, don't judge me)
Very well said. May he rest in peace.
I'm here because E-dubble is a beast!
yeah. I really love e-dubble
I've noticed you in every comment section of every E-dubble video there is, you sir are a true fan.
I think 'for future reference' is the worst one but that's just me
Umbilical968 You're not alone
love the beat
I truly hope E dubble gets the recognition he deserves. The sad thing is that E dubble is actually better than any of the current rappers apart from enimen and macklemore
POLSKA
in my opinion it would have been better if he said. "Look in the mirror and i see my ghost"
I'm here because of my good taste of music
100,000?
Pandora, name every single one without a major record label....
Dolphinately? wut
E dubble and eminem are tied for my favorite. But this is dolphinitaley my favorite of them both
When people say call of duty videos sent them here...smh. Hell free publicity doe ^_^ Much needed!
simply legendary
I bet you're thinking "omg yeah lil wayne and 50 cent omg" No :| No one is better than e-dub
I haven't heard anyone call him a rookie?
StraightUpKnives
lol wut?
Really?
It would turn to pop music. The label would change his music to make it more popular
is your music license free?
It's on iTunes
Where can I get this album and also hip hop is good? Is it on cd or just on iTunes?
No one gives a fuck, mate.
*His, and most aren't about knives.
I believe he was in college(?) when he made Freestyle Friday/Written Thursday? Maybe I'm wrong, but if I had to guess, I'd say 25-30 years old.
He's songs is usually about knives
if he did become mainstream dont you think he will make more music? why whould it change. he does do it for his fans and he will always
Youre so god i cant stop heare this song
Isn't he 45?
And Edub is SUK's father
