There are many instances of violence that are portrayed to an almost grandiose manner in rap songs, and the RaeKwon Criminology lyrics are no different. Made up of several segments of lyrics, this rap song takes place almost as if on stage as a discussion between two people. It opens up with a conversation between two individuals in just this manner, before it goes into the song itself. In the opening dialogue, two men are arguing and in the middle of a verbal debate that sounds as if it is about to turn violent and physical, with the ending line being "You wanna go to war?" This makes it very clear what the intentions of the men are.
They tried to be violent and hostile in nature and one tries to take advantages on the other. Some names are used to seek attention to the racial anxiety which may remain between the individuals and that is expanded in the later segments.
In the first stanza of the song, the individual that is talking seems to be building himself up and calling attention to his ability to outmaneuver those who would try to capture him or stop him from succeeding in whatever it is that he wants to do. "Then I react, like a convict, and start killin" is a line that is particularly indicative of the nature of the individual. They are adopting the mentality of that which they have experienced through their formidable years.
The residual dialogs go on to show the points of pride of the person which he discovers in himself. This is why he considers himself to be more victorious and hardcore to some degree than his opponent.
"Response" is the next part of the song. The second speaker tries to show that he has more power and more street integrity than the first speaker which is essential to have. The second speaker then tries to toast with the past speaker. He also says that he shot many people and saw huge bloodshed while killing them. When he goes through telling these violent incidents he seems to be remorseful for his misdeed and he tries to show that the shot people were deserved to have this punishment. Only to entertain the audience is not the main purpose of the song; rather the songs are made to make people think about the violence of crime. The audience needs to think what it is that strengthen such kinds of thinking and yearning. By figuring out the main theme of the song we can come up with different paths to gain the same attitude and feelings of praiseworthiness and honor.
