How I Could Just Kill A Man Lyrics
Hey don't miss out on what you're passing,
you're missing the hootah of the funky buddah,
eluder of the fucked up style's that get wicked
so come on as I start to kick it,
cause we're like outlaws sridding while suckers are hiding,
jump behind the bush when you see me driving by'
hanging out my window, and my magnum taking out some negros
acting kind of loco I'm just another local
kid from the street getting paid for my vocals.
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man

Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand

I be doing all the dumb shit yo
cause nothing is coming from it
I'm not gonna waste no time fucking around I got ya humming
humming coming at ya! then you know I had to gat ya!
time for some action just a fraction of friction
I got the clearance to run the interference
in to your sattle light shining a battle light
Sen got the gat and I know that we'll gat you right
here's an example just a little sample:
how could I just kill a man
one time tried to come in my home take my chrome
I said yo it's on. take cover son or you're assed out
how do you like my chrome then I watched the rookie pass out
didn't have to blast him but I did any way, young punk had to pay
so I just killed a man

here is something you can't understand,
how I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man

It's gonna be a long time before I finish
one of the many missions that I have to establish
to lite my spliff ignite you with insite so if you ain't down
bullshit. say some punk tried to get you for your auto
would call the one time and play the rolemmodel?
No! I think you'll play like a thug
next hear the shot of a magnum slug, humming coming at ya!
yeah you know I'm going to gat ya. How do you know where I'm at
when you haven't been where I've been, understand where I'm coming from. While you're up on the hill in your big home
I'm out here risking my dome, just for a bucket or a faster ducket,
just to stay alive yo I got to say fuck it.
here is something you can't understand, how I could just kill a man.
here is something you can't understand, how I could just kill a man.
here is something you can't understand, how I could just kill a man.
here is something you can't understand, how I could just kill a man.

Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man
Here is something you can't understand,
How I could just kill a man

How I could just kill a man
How I could just kill a man

That is correct. It is a Cypress Hill song. If you'd listen to their version, you'd probably think it sucks because it's more rap.

"son of a bitch" -> "hijo de puta". and when you insult somebody calling 'em "bitch!", the translation would be "puta!" too, not "perra" or "hijo de perra". But if it the song doesn't say "putos" then i guess it doesn't matter...

The LIVE version with members of Cypress Hill (last track on Renegades) is the best version (in my oppinion anyway).

this song is amazing. i love how the whole renegades album is cover songs.the cypress hill version isnt bad either, for those of u lookin for a good rap song. good rap, kinda an oxymoron, isnt it?? but this song rules in all versions. i think i agree that putos is male bitch b/c cypress hill always did a bit of spanish in their songs..... according to my spanish friend, puta is bitch.

This is a rare time when a cover of a song actually exceeds the original.

Rage does a really good job of capturing the anger and viciousness of a person who takes joy in poppin' a cap in a busta's ass.

I especially love the line "Didn't have to blast him but I did it anyway. Ha, ha, ha, young punk had to pay!" Awesome.

I thought "Puto" was rhetoric these days, but I guess not. 'Course, I'm also versed in spanish so maybe I just know it naturally.

And it wouldn't make sense for Rage to say "negroes." For God sakes, Zach De La Rocha is Hispanic (Mexican specifically if I recall correctly.)

The live version at the end of "Renegades" is sick, it's at a concert (not sure where) with Rage and Cypress Hill (Rockthebells??) doing this song together... great stuff. Anyone else going to Rock the Bells this summer?!! Gonna be an insane show!!!!!

It was performed at the Grand Olympic Auditorium in 2000. Check the video;
