note: OG = Original Gangsta :)
Adam took time the other day to do tour of the Trespassing tracks and their meaning.
(The awesome thing with most of these track, tho, are that they can mean something completely different to you than they did/do to Adam. Based on experiences and life situations the words take on a life of their own, so listen with your HEART as well as your ears.)
#1 - Trespassing: not following any of these lame ass rules. Look out bitches. ;)#2 - Cuckoo: yeah that’s right. I’m nuts. But damn it’s fun, you coming along for the ride?
#3 - Shady: feeling loose now, gonna get my swerve on. Feeling nasty.
#4 - Never Close Our Eyes: let’s all stay in the moment and stay open to all possibilities. We have the power to create our reality.
#5 - Kickin’ In: The “she” in Kickin In is about a guy friend of mine. Ya know? That one Banjee fishy queen you all call a she. Mary please. I know Banjee and Fishy are sorta opposites but my fav queens are that glorious half and half. they can just flip depending on the song. But it’s totally also about that crazy fruit fly who’s always stealing yo thunder by last call. Lol
#6 - Naked Love: come on folks! Relax!! Chill! It ain’t that deep- take a chance and express how u want. Strip away all the BS and get real.
#7 - Pop That Lock: pop that lock is about being fierce. Basking in the glow of light you have the power to put out in the universe. That’s the key
#9 - Broken English: I’m trying to read u.. It’s confusing but soooo mysteriously sexy. Maybe words aren’t the key. Communication through touch.
#10 - Underneath: I’m doing my best. Underneath my best game face it’s still not always easy. I have my demons and they are powerful.
#11 - Chokehold: your playing games w me and it’s putting me though it! But I’m addicted to the heartache and drama. I can’t get enough.
#12 - Outlaws of Love: road to equality ain’t easy. Sometimes we get sad. All the hate because of the love we wanna share. But we are gonna be ok.
Bonus tracks:
#13 - Runnin: when I don’t follow my heart, i get dark. vicious cycle that only I can pull myself out of. We all have the power to affect change.
#14 - Take back: how can we reset how we fell apart? How do we get back to where we started? This was the first song written for trespassing.

As you might notice songs #8 - Better Than I Know Myself & #15 - Nirvana are missing, we did not forget, he simply did not talk about those two this time. With BTIKM he might feel that he’s explained his view on the lyrics too many times before.
