My Whole Life Flashed Before My Eyes Meaning

[[Intro]
Yo, have you ever have something happen to you where, you know, it seemed like your whole life just flashed in front of you? I mean, you know, you were so scared, like man you was getting ready to get hit by a car or somethin’? (Word). Yo, that happened to me just the other night. My whole life flashed in front of me. Bust it (Bust it, bust it, bust it)

[Verse 1]
It was a Friday night, I was feeling good
Well-groomed with dough like an MC should
On my way to a girly’s house I just had met
I started daydreaming bout what I was going to get
As I reached her block I broke out my Tic Tacs
Popped a few in my mouth and started making track
I hopped up to the doorway, just a few more feet
When a car turned the corner going “beep beep beep”
Light blazed in my eyes, they were on high beam
I heard a car door slam, it was a posse it seemed
I heard four sets of footsteps rapidly approaching
I put my hand on my knife, no time to start eroding
Standin’ up tall, I put bass in my voice
Most chumps woulda froze with their eyes getting moist
Then a shot rang out and much to my surprise
My whole life flashed right before my eyes

[Verse 2]
I hit the ground and rolled like a bowling pin
When more shots rang out and that was when
I got up into flight, I was in third gear
I was outrunning bullets with the aid of fear
I cut through a driveway and leaped a fence
I was OJ Simpson or at least I was convinced
Anyhow, anyway, to continue on
Like a bat out of hell, Spyder-D was gone
My mind confused, I tried to sort things out
I proceeded to dash, hoppin’ fences just about
You see five foot high, I didn’t use my hands
My primary goal was to escape, my man
My adrenaline flowed, you see my heart was pumpin’ hard
Then I leaped into this dark backyard
Where a Doberman Pinscher was starting to rise
My whole life flashed right before my eyes
I had to think quick ’cause the dog was pouncing
I picked up a stick and proceeded to trounce him
The Doberman all upside his head
But the stick cold broke, I just knew I was dead
As the dog leaped up for my jugular vein
You see my mind prepared me for excruciating pain
But the dog in reality was at me in a flash
I just jumped to the side and kicked him square in the (*dog yelp*)
As I pulled the knife out the dog’s behind
I couldn’t understand what was on my mind
You see, I still hadn’t made it to this girly’s place
I got sidetracked by this little chase
So I began to gain my calm, I said “Hey, wait a second”
I had a date tonight and didn’t even get to necking
My ego is such that I couldn’t go forward
The girl’s body screams “Spyder, don’t you ignore it”
So like a fool for love that we all can be
I souped myself up, I say “Yo, I’m Spyder-D”
And with those words I started back
You see, thinkin’ I was Spock on Star Trek
I said the odds of more trouble seem quite slim
See, sometimes I think I think like them
But if that was true I’d tell Scotty and the crew
To beam me to this girl’s crib, I command you
But since that’s not true, let me stop fantasizing
And finish this story before I put lies in
, Hit it! Spyder!

[Verse 3]
I made it back to the block, you see the coast was clear
With a sigh of relief, I said “**Phew** I’m here”
Knocked on the door with a cold funky beat
So she know it was me and not some dude named Pete
I said “Hey there, wild horses couldn’t keep me away”
She was so impressed that she let me caress
Her-her lovely self in her Gucci dress
See things were getting heated, breathing getting hard
I said “Girl you know I hold you in the highest regard”
Just then her father walked in, caught me hand on thigh
And once again my life flashed right before my eyes
He said “Hey boy, my daughter ain’t no toy
Take your hands from there before I start to employ
My years of experience in pro football
When I come back in I don’t want to see you at all”
So I kissed the girl and said “Baby, goodnight
I’m a little tired, or your papa, stay and fight”
She just smiled and said “Maybe another time
Won’t you get home safe and maybe write some rhymes”
Her kiss was so strong, we held it so long
My bell was ringing, going ding-a-ding-dong
Then her pops came back and said “Boy, tonight you die”
And once again you know my life flashed…
Before my eyes
Before my eyes
, [Outro]
Word, my whole life flashed in front of me, from the time I was a little boy all the way up ’til now. I saw everything. Thanksgiving collard greens… He was coming after me… Word. My whole life flashed… before my eyes… Rrah!]
