#【♞】 tag game.#this was fun but also kind of difficult bc? i usually pick songs by vibe and not so much by lyrics #like whatever i can picture would play in a movie featuring him #i love how most of the songs i associate with him somehow revolve around his father though :’ )#first song has such a ray vibe in general #especially the chorus...#''kill me if you dare hold my head up anywhere'' like. he gives zero fucks #and i love that for him #2) rlly highlights his struggle of being his father's son; knowing he Could be just as bad but trying to be better #throughout the song it keeps repeating ‘’personal responsibility’’ like some sort of mantra #and to me that reflects one of ray’s principles #he refuses to hide behind his upbringing #whatever choices he makes; they’re his and he is responsible. not whatever happened to him during his childhood #he views the criminals he deals with much the same #3) is all about him realizing the truth about his father and starting his vigilante arc #‘‘why should i be good if you’re not?’‘ the beginning of his moral descent yay :- )#4) is mainly a vibe song tbh #‘’lead them to die’’ makes me think of a conversation he has with his father while he’s on death row though #when he accuses ray of being just like him #his father has orchestrated deaths to keep his illicit dealings hidden / to turn trials in the favor of his clients / etc.#but in a roundabout way ray too has blood on his hands #investigating murderers and getting some of them convicted with a death penalty?#to his father this reeks of hypocrisy #this fucks with ray ngl #especially after his father tells him he would’ve never caused the death of his own flesh and blood. a line ray has crossed himself #5) vibes for his vigilante arc... simple as that #OK IM DONE RAMBLING #if you read all of this; you're a real trooper and ilu
