At the time of it’s release, Lil Uzi Vert’s “XO TOUR Llif3" is his biggest hit yet, peaking at No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earning a quadruple platinum certification. Over production by JW Lucas and TM88, Uzi takes on some dark subject matter including substance abuse, betrayal, and suicide....
[Chorus]
The DNA starts to unwind
The RNA reads the other side
Meiosis is the key to making life
Mitosis copies cells about to die
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
[Verse 1]
Unwind the DNA
Prep for mitosis happens in the interphase
Then we move to prophase
Spindles start to shape
Chromatids condense as the bubble breaks down
Yeah, I'm talking membrane
Metaphase chromatids meet at the heart
Anaphase chromatids are pulled apart
Telophase forming of membrane will start
While the cell starts to pinch back apart
Cytokinesis the cycle is through
That's when cytoplasm ends up split in two
Meiosis is alike, except it happens twice
And chromatids are spliced
Please
Remember, the difference is key
Mitosis makes somatic cells
The cells that make up all of me
Except for in my sex organs
My haploid cells take half of me
[Chorus]
The DNA starts to unwind
The RNA reads the other side
Meiosis is the key to making life
Mitosis copies cells about to die
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead, yeah
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
All my cells are dead
[Verse 2]
Apoptosis makes sure I don't spread
Mutations are results of genes misread
Transcription, RNA polymerase
Initiates, elongates, then terminates
Translate, ribosomal units
Need free amino acids just to do it
Chromosomes made of genes
Makes the colors of our eyes
And gives us a widow's peak
Meiosis gives us variation
So we're different people
Mitosis helps us grow and replace
Cells when they get evil
She said "I don't know, I don't know
How do cells divide and help you grow?"
[Chorus]
The DNA starts to unwind
The RNA reads the other side
Meiosis is the key to making life
Mitosis copies cells about to die
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
