He was struggling with a harsh life in the 90s like a navy soldier, while you had a successful one like the happy family TV show The Bradys in the 90s.
Kites are measurements of wind, so “you still fly kites daily” means you’re still getting high, getting it easy.

  • Yet another rolling idiom: you better stop him before he gets on a roll, i.e, before he gets too sweet to handle, like the sweetness on a danish roll. Its also another play on dice, because you roll the dice.

  • His linguistic witchcraft pops words in your head like “Nice”, “Sweet”, “Ice”, “Vanilla”… all of which is reinforced with the Danish-Roll, a syrupy bread based desert that often contains vanilla.

  • With “danish” (a slang for “damn”, often used by Nicki Minaj), Em is also mocking Nicki Minaj’s abuse of punchline flow, which involves setting up a pun, giving a pause, and then delivering a highly autotuned punchline.
    This flow is also called “hashtag rap” and was popularized by Drake and Big Sean whom she has collaborated with.

Though he didn’t sell much (well, surely not as much as silly guy right here), that’s because his rap style is old school quality rap, that not much people appreciate.

“Ain’t wrapped tight” is referring to not wearing protection while with the “fat dyke” from the previous line. Oxy80s is a nickname for the drug OxyContin. Royce is basically saying he’s that fucked up that his blood type is a drug.

Em and Royce were arguing in the past over a line that was taken as a diss on Em’s Anger Management mixtape, where Royce says “fuck anger management, I need to manage my anger…”, him and his crew taking it as an insult. As a result, there was a falling out.

However before dying, Proof was able to help straighten things out, and Em and Royce are back on solid grounds having ”deaded” the past! Which inevitably resurrected Royce’s bank account too.

Referencing the “Liar Liar Pants on fire” chant that little kids say. They are lying about banging so hard that they could light a cigarette with their assholes.

A homosexual can -in slang terms_ be referred to as “flaming”. Royce is saying that your asshole is so “flaming” that it could light a cigarette. Which ties to his unicorn description previously, since homosexuals and unicorns have a connotation.

You can also notice a bit of wordplay in the fact that the term “fag” is both a British colloquialism for cigarette and an American slur for homosexual.

A second wordplay would be on the fact that gay men have sex through the anus, therefore it being so hot from the recent intercourse that they can light a cigarette with their own buttholes.

if you’re new to this rap game, conform to fit the generic industry mold, if you’re really bangin' and as gangster as you claim to be, then prove it and go at a cop as described in these lines

Unicorns represent peace, so hanging Mr.Peace-Keeper, naked, by his balls on a unicorn’s horn is kind of ironic (and humiliating)
Also, the unrealistic nature of a unicorn hints at Royce’s satirical message. If he were truly going to impale a cop, he would have chose a more realistic method.

Before Royce reaches the end of his career and/or gets buried, he’ll lyrically kill (surpass) you all as gently as a rich gentleman willing to finish his days on an island would.

Kindness is another word for “nice“ (in rap terms, dope or sick). So he doesn’t have to stoop to your level and talk bad about you to kill you; instead, he’s just going to kill you with how nice he is at rapping.

Autobahn is german for highway. Autobahn roads have no speedlimit, you are allowed to drive as fast as you like.

As a rapper who makes lots of money, his life is passing fast all by itself (autopilot).

Eminem used to spell his stage name “M&M”, just like the sweets. He got rid of the spelling (threw away the candy), so his name was no longer spelled like the candy. Then, he ate the wrapper of the candy, just like he “eats rappers” now

As many rumors claim that he’s talking about Sarah Mathers, his father’s child (MMLP’s “A half brother and sister (Sarah) who never seen me…”). He is probably just referring to the fictional sister his mother pretended that he had.
