Possible reference to the “Reaping” where the contestants of The Hunger Games are picked.

ACCEPTED COMMENT: HOWEVER, this is more likely President Snow talking (as this whole song seems to be from his point of view). When he is talking, no one else should speak, and everyone should listen, because he is the unquestioned leader.

Drinking an excessive amount of lean (a pint in one sitting) will definitely fuck you up. You’ll likely pass out while hallucinating from the effects of lean.

Future is gonna rage and pass out because he gives no fucks. Just like Kid Cudi, “Mr.Rager”.

Yung Lean compares himself to the character King Kai from the Dragon Ball metaseries.
King Kai is the teacher/mentor of various Z Fighters including Son Goku.

Unlike his contenders, Lean needs no practice or training, and in fact alludes to the idea that he should be teaching.

The fourth track off of Flash’s Ocean of Lies EP, he plays around with the concept of a boomerang to describe how he misses an ex of his. However, unlike a true boomerang, he “threw” her away and now she won’t come back to him.

A track full of remorse and regret. It’s pretty sad. ;__;
