Food is as crucial to human energy as buoyancy is to a boat’s ability to float.

“bach” means a Maybach, a very expensive car that Joey’s future self could probably afford.

Perhaps another example of how future Joey has become like Jay-Z, another successful Brooklyn rapper occasionally accused of selling out – Jay owns a Maybach himself.

The beauty of life, its ups and downs. Just another night in the Bay area.

He’s apologizing to his past female acquaintances for being violent and abusive.

He may also be referring to hip-hop as his love. Charles Hamilton’s career has been very murky over the past few years, losing favor with the hip-hop industry. He could be apologizing for his lax behavior in his music and decisions.

He’s got poisonous raps, similar to the venomous jaws of a snake.

Perhaps a long shot, but he could be referring to the Marvel comic villain Venom. Same meaning.

This references this moment in his career, which was subsequently used by bloggers to further dampen his career some time back. Charles shoots these bars back at the critics in showing his individuality.

On meeting Pharrell in an interview with Nylon Guys: “[We met at] the Four Seasons, right?” says Hamilton. “I had just taken a shower that day for the first time in a couple of days.”

A very well known and used church saying is “Come as you are.” Charles is primal in nature, therefore he is basking in his natural state.

No matter how bad things got he assumed love is forever and they would never end. As some would say, “drunk off love.” He was so, such that he didn’t have the acumen to see that everything ends eventually.

Despite the humor of the first couple lines, this is a more serious Charles than usual, so don’t leave or take him lightly.

The last line, “Gotta keep it hot, won’t be no deleting,” says that Charles is spitting straight off the dome, without editing of lyrics before or afterwards. Word on the street is that this entire album was freestyled.

A play on Pro Era’s name – if you sleeping on the progressive times, they’ll just pass you by and you’ll be stuck in the past, medieval times.

ACCEPTED COMMENT: The Progressive Era, the REAL Progressive Era was a period of political activism in the U.S. from the 1890s to the 1920s. A time where people pushed for purification of Government, a sort of waking up, perhaps. Which is just what Pro Era is about.

Medieval Times was a time of Barbarians. Really dumb down people.

Sleep on the Progressive and you won’t see their message for waking people up.
