Am I the Only One Who Doesn't Understand What The #@+% Wu-Tang is talking about???

[captainspaulding]

Reminds me of my E 99 Eternal days

some of it, goes together, but isn't as coherent as you'd like.

it's like art, it goes well together(emotionally), but you're pretty sure no one else would have put those feelings in that sequence.


and then yes, 5%er stuff, mob lines, coke/crack lyrics, kung fu(eastern) culture is all mixed in.

As a 29 year old I never had that feeling growing up. But i kind of understand what you saying. I remember going to OHHLA.com and printing of lyrics of Wu. I had binder full of them joints. 

I use to analyze this song.

Raekwon feat Ghostface, Master Killer  ~  Glaciers of Ice


Stand on the block Reebok gun cocked
Avalance rock get paid off mass murderous services
Chef break em, watch the alley cats bake em
watch the alley cats bake em
Four-nine made em, Jah create em take em
quick fast we reflect like the sky be blue true
Wu-Tang saga continue
Grab Myer Lansky crashin fantasy
get high fellas, stand by, 'here's the plan, see?'
sit back collectin' Tecs N checks and
blowin slow in a Montaro flexin
Beats break heavily word to INS bless me
Blow me like three bags of cess
For real from the Killa Hill locked and caged in
We're swarm representatives, reactin like paid men
Strive for why's, nine lives in lies
Max sell and enjoy the highs -- what

Chorus/Break:

[Raekwon the Chef] The treasure is the glaciers of ice
[Ghostface] Orginal man
[Raekwon/Ghost] Posess the power to hold G's guns and grams
[Ghostface] Caker baker
[Raekwon the Chef] Pull off a keystone caper
                   Point out the baddest !%++# in the crowd
[Raekwon/Ghost] And i'm a scrape her

Verse Two: Master Killer

Proceed with caution as you enter the symphony
Degrees of pulse will increase intensely
Syndrome was caused by the deadly drums
But the battle was won by swords being swung
Slicing with a vocal
From the international vocalist
Ya style is too local
To *%++ with this
All fits of antagonists
No assistance movin motionless
Mysterious swiftness
Thoughts roll down the shaft of the brain
Mental gives the signal to the physical
Whirlwind kicks and hits from every angle
Violent temperments
Uncountenance dented
Poison vintage wine rhymes I invented
Chumped by the drunken punches that punches the heart
Vital sparks from the arteries start

Verse Three: Ghostface Killer

The treasure is the glaciers of ice original man
Posess the power of hold G's guns and grams
Straight up and down it's all good
Peace to them check castin chain snatchin gun flashin
%*#%!# in the hood bubblin good
Analyze stocks, we'll be buyin lion heads and cloths
To all my house ++!%+%+, Starks will be home soon
I'm on tour chill, catch you Ninety-Six in June
But until then my ten-man team be safe
Chill on the whips to settle this, we can all get laced
Take a boat cruise, sip daquiris and max swimmin pools
Fly jewels Wally shoes blow stacks relax kid
black kids got a cravin for grapes until we get back
I'm packed leave the Mac that you're with
but whatever, I gotta hit other sides of the Earth
Spread Wu-ness, foolish, civilization's cursed
But luckily I'm born to be wild and aure-al
Move crowds collect twenty thou and then we out
Heavy convoys my crew keep pretty boys paranoid
Blow like a steroid pat Dan's they're Akyroid
My seeds growin his seeds marry his seeds
that's how we keep Wu-Tang money all up in the family

You're not alone.

NOBODY knows what they're talking about, people just listen and formulate their own opinions on it. Then they preach it as the gospel.
