Line or Lion on Dead Wrong

[PhilTh3thriLL]

The songs been out for a very long time, but I am still not 100 percent on a certain rhyme.


"I got a line/lion in my pocket, I'm lying/
I got a nine in my pocket and baby I'm just dying to cock it"


I mean I know line makes perfect sense here, but every single lyric site says other wise. A lion? are you serious?? There is a even a band called Weatherbox who did a cover for ems verse in dead wrong, pretty dope, but they clearly say lion too.


Who else is with me that it is LINE and whoever thinks its lion is a fool with their pants on the ground?

[B.A.D.]

what if he made up the word??

Layan??

me lols

[csg370]

It's line.

[Dark Blue]

it could be this:

I think it's wordplay, and is actually both.

"Fake it / faggots"

or it could be this:

It's line.

your welcome for all the help

[robollama]

I'm going with lion since when Royce da 5'9" redid those lyrics for I think Renegade (not sure) he said he had a skunk in his trunk. or maybe Royce was wrong too plus lion and lyin' rhyme better than line and lyin'

[Nuebs4]

Alright this is just a shot in the dark and I'm being completely serious here.

But a Lion has a Mane and there is something in his pants that may look like it has a mane.

It seems like a stretch but it just might work.

[GoodGirlsGetGutted]

That's called a mondegreen.

Ye Highlands and ye Lowlands,
Oh, where hae ye been?
They hae slain the Earl O'Murray,
And Lady Mondegreen.

The last line is actually "And laid him on the green", but hearing it, your mind cannot distinguish between the two.

It's lion. Your mind is playing tricks on you: an auditory illusion.

[AliJack]

I think it's wordplay, and is actually both.

"Fake it / faggots"

this one is LION, stop bein a fuckin shithead, if you gonna ask a question, ask it with no bias, ass clown.The other one is Faggots. How the fuck can you mistake Adam Lambert for anythin other than one

[KillahBee]

I always thought it was line as in a line of cocaine

[M-Pyre]

it's lion!

it means this...


There Is A Bigger Voice But He/She Is Ignoring It.

[Justice]

edittttttttttttttt



[Eminem]
There's several different levels to Devil worshippin: horse's heads,
Human sacrifices, canibalism; candles and exorcism
Animals havin sex with 'em; camels mammals and rabbits
But I don't get into that, I kick the habit - I just,
Beat you to death with weapons that eat through the flesh
And I never eat you unless the fuckin, meat looks fresh
I got a lion in my pocket, I'm lyin, I got a nine in my pocket
And baby I'm just, dyin to cock him
He's ready for war, I'm ready for war
I got machetes and swords for any faggot that said he was raw
My uz' as, heavy as yours, yeah you met me before
I just didn't have as large an arsenal of weapons before
Marshall will step in the door, I lay your head on the floor
With your body spread on the bedspread, red on the wall
Red on the ceilin, red on the floor, get a new whore
Met on the second, wet on the third;
Then she's dead on the fourth - I'm dead wrong

[Kez]

I always figured it was lion cause it's referring to a gun, and both lions and guns have the power to kill

[embm]

i alwys heard it as lion

[Le Tunisien]

he clearly says lion

[dR3]

Lion makes more sense.
