Slaine - Evolution Of The Kid Lyrics






Hey, young world, wanna hear a story?

How's it feel to be overlooked, underrated and hated?
Stomach pains in the belly of a city hungry
If one of us made it to prominence is a mentality
Of crabs in the barrel, reality is pretty ugly
Well, let's back up cause my story ain't a fairy tale, it's really real
Ain't had a chance, I ain't have nothin', I could barely feel
All's have was these neighborhoods I know very well
In a fiery will, some pages in my diary, I would spill
Lyrics on my paper, violence around me, it's on me
I blindly feel my books like a zombie
Measurin' these stories with my bare hands
Pictures of this grimy game
I stall it like a pilot in a kamikaze plane
A decade of pain tells me I'm a grown man
I live my life holdin' death inside my own hands
The kids that I grew up with locked up or inside a box
There ain't no runnin' here, your only choice is fight or box
The music pushed me through the ghosts that's in the hall
Toasters and the dope sickness, ferociousness and all
The hopelessness of watchin' overdoses and the horror
Suicides and murders, I can't take this shit no more
I had these posters on my wall and this music in my room
It took me out my world
It would shoot me to the moon
Yous' a fire burnin', I'm determined from this higher learnin'
Put me on a different road
Engine revving
Tires turnin'
Ever since I'm 7, I just know where I got to go
Trapped in this vicious dome, but I'm back
This is home
They said I could've been a star, but I lost my logic
My heart is harder than the bricks in the Boston projects

    B.... B....

    @Thomas Trombley

  20. k.... s....

    Some good new stuff comin' from the angry Rap guy from Boston.He's a great actor too.Gonna go all the waaaaaaaaaaaay! XXOO Slaine!

  21. V.... P....

    @WyWallace103   Dude no disrepct but people battle rap all the time and say crazy stuff. He was just having a regular battle rap and started to punch the dude. There is like a understanding that people are just sparing when it comes to their lyrics and most Mcs respect each other and dont catch feelings. That is the type of stuff that gets you shot when you walk back to your car. If you respect him enough you wouldnj't want to lead him astray. This behavior puts people in pine boxes.

    V.... P....

    +Vincent Pfeifer I understand you, but Slaine was drunk as fuck, they were talking over him and interrupting him and hyping their boy up and dude said he fucked his girl. Not saying he was right but he was slapping him to put him in his place, then got rowdy and almost murdered him with that hook. I talked to him about it, he'd just drank heavily and then this goes down, he acknowledges it wasn't one of his better nights. Cut him some fuckin slack dude's a fucking inspiration

    V.... P....

    Everyone deserves grace.  But with grace comes responsibility. It would be nice for him to post a apology and man up for the issue. However, that would take humility. Humility comes in many forms. We can choose to humble ourselves or eventually we will be humbled. I thank God your friend wasn't humbled by a bullet.

  22. E.... O....

    Defiantly directed by the same guy that does madchilds videos

  23. c.... n....

    #aotp  

  24. A.... ....

    Just uploaded a new instrumental,sampled from this tune,take a look,with cuts and scratches

  25. D.... R....

    Looks like I have a newbie in my collection!

  26. R.... M....

    finally, no lame ass hook

  27. F.... ....

    1:03 Does anyone know who he is?

    F.... ....

    lol thats james "whitey" bulger. but im from boston so hes a household name around here. you wouldnt understand unless you were from here. im sure there are people where you live that are infamously known as well. peace!

    F.... ....

    @TheHipHopSpot That's who I thought he was initially! Haha, but he looks so much different from other pictures I've seen of him

  28. r.... ....

    I NEED TO KNOW WHAT THEY SAID!!!

  29. C.... ....

    Did you know that Slaine throws punches like a bitch when losing a rap battle, lost all respect for this guy, don't care if he makes good music or not.

  30. T.... ....

    The people who are complaining about the beat being bad, this is what it sounds like when an emcee murders a beat. Learn what real hip hop is and stop listening to shitty rap that has to have big repetitive beats to cover the fact that they suck and really have nothing to say.

  31. O.... J....

    MadChild made me a Slaine fan

  32. J.... M....

    This beat is pretty terrible. Midi orchestras are the worst. Not trying to start a war with youtube commenters or REAL HIP HOP heads thanks.

  33. M.... ....

    HARDCORE RAP!!!

  34. b.... ....

    Now why ain't this on TV? Why ain't this on the radio? This is the shit the world should hear!

  35. G.... ....

    no joke really I sound like 30 years old

  36. h.... ....

    ppl are shitting themselves over this comment lol

  37. G.... ....

    guess what im 16 I sound like 30 years old

  38. B.... ....

    Nah, he's from Boston, like myself...that's what 35 looks like when you live around here.

  39. h.... ....

    ok maybe not 50, but still older than he is, probably just the grey hair n beard, i dno why ppl are getting all pissed though, im not dissing him lol, slaine is amazing

  40. L.... ....

    garbage.

  41. T.... ....

    If you think he looks 50 you are trippinnn. Have you ever seen a fifty year old human being?

  42. h.... ....

    hell no

  43. h.... ....

    he looks younger than he is

  44. p.... ....

    I'm guessing you're about 15 and don't realise how quick that shit comes around and what you are gonna look like at that age. Just wait kid, you won't look half as good lol

  45. D.... W....

    Same age as me

  46. S.... H....

    thank you brother one love

  59. A.... S....

    probs from germany.. you are the best rapper of the world.. your flows and skills are priceless.. a feat with you is a wish... greetz from germany brat

  60. N.... D....

    don't listen to these goofs and fegs man.. maybe some of them are wealthy and have fegs and retards for parents.. I can pretty much psychoanalyze a million dfifferent forms of jealousy and that's the sad part, they see you at your best and as 7-12 year olds don't understand the depth of heart your lyrics come from.in a world that can't listen to them same old problems unless they are in a song and some people who could have succeeded but had to many pinions and gremlins holding them down. trolls

  61. t.... ....

    Respect

  62. D.... ....

    What a mean spirited fat fucker. Appalling. What's happened to America's once great music scene?

  63. C.... N....

    wonder how he looks when he's 50 then

  64. F.... ....

    hard drugs will do that to ya

  65. S.... .....

    RA the Rugged man!!

  66. S.... .....

    sadly gangster rappers are repetitive and lack lyricism for the most part.

  67. A.... B....

    Slaine is the man!!!

  68. J.... M....

    really though who the fuck cares, listen to the lyrics...

  69. k.... s....

    I wish this was longer.It felt like the story was just starting.....Well....I guess it is....

  70. J.... M....

    who gives a fuck what he looks like listen to his words...

  71. N.... ....

    This was amazing.Slaine deserves all the respect and success he gets x10.For being little more than 2 minutes long(1:20 rapping)this was very powerful.With this song and videos themes and imagery it is remarkable that it was released a month prior to Boston's unspeakable horror.

  72. S.... ....

    Good stuff but holy sh*t he sounds like Vinnie Paz, or vice versa.

  73. C.... M....

    I'd say he looks about 35.

  74. K.... K....

    35...50? Slaine will still knock ya the f out dog, respect, south boston.

  75. L.... M....

    too much molly and too much hate

  76. S.... ....

    I don't know about you but his album...IS AWESOME!!!!!
