This may serve as an allusion to the Greek mythological artifact, Pandora’s box, a box that contained all the evils of the world.

In this line, if Abel’s partner opened the box, metaphorically, the female’s partner would discover she has been cheating with Abel which is why he does not want it to be opened until the “end of days.”

Nastradamus is Nas' album released in 1999, which went in a different, more commercial direction than usual. It received mixed reviews from the rap community as being weak and him ‘'falling off’‘.

Donny is saying he’ll go as hard as Nas, but not simulating how he was on Nastradamus.

In addition, it alludes to the great thinker and ‘prophet’ Nostradamus. Michel de Nostredame (14 or 21 December 1503 – 2 July 1566), usually Latinised as Nostradamus, was a French apothecary and reputed seer who published collections of prophecies that have since become famous worldwide.

There is less of a racial apartheid in Britain, racial issues take a back seat to social issues such as class – particularly in poorer, working class areas.

Kano suggests that everyone in the hood has the same goal, and same enemy. The goal being money, and the enemy being those with money.

This status frustration that children growing up in the hood leads to them searching for ways to achieve this ‘goal’, usually through utilitarian crimes such as theft.

This is achieved through the correct mentality, which largely due to cultural deprivation (lack of norms and values) the working class lack. Therefore are slightly predisposed to failure in the system governed by middle class people.

Picky is patois for a child and Dax is a hair product which creates ‘waves’, a trend which was prevalent in London among black boys when Kano was a child (and still is to some extent).

Kano is saying that when he was a child, he would have never thought he would end up at the BAFTAs, because to everyone else – he was just a black child that society looked down on.

Summer is considered as a fun, happy time of year.
In London, weather is notoriously bad, and in the area K-Koke was brought up in – the ‘ghetto’ so to speak, it is always gloom or grey.
There is no summer for him and his people.

Biggie will not be able to live the hedonistic life style he is used to as heaven is a sinless place – no sex and fornication, partying, nor drugs – everyone is just fine. Kinda like a Mormon summer camp.

The class is an analogy the rap game. K is a relatively unknown rapper.
