The song "Karma" by Ghetts explores themes of revenge, betrayal, and the consequences of one's actions. The lyrics depict a situation where Ghetts has been betrayed by someone he trusted, and he seeks retribution for their actions. The song starts with Ghetts expressing anger towards this person he caught "slippin'" and talks about how he's been trying to catch them for nine months. He mentions feeling the urge to kill him and describes the intensity of his emotions. Ghetts then reflects on the principles and betrayals he has experienced, and expresses his feelings of invincibility. He criticizes the person for pretending and accuses them of being despicable. He suggests that if the person's wife had any sense, she would leave him miserable. The lyrics then reveal that the person held a weapon to Ghetts' head in the past but miraculously, he survived. Ghetts expresses regret for not retaliating at the time and instead kept the conversation to a minimum. He mentions being in a low state now, riding in the back of a Benz with a gun, feeling doubtful about his capability to kill. Ghetts then expresses his desire for revenge and talks about how people question what happened to him; he feels ridiculed. He emphasizes that he can't let this happen again and believes that it's about revenge, wanting to kill them all. As the song progresses, Ghetts notices what seems to be undercover police cars following him. He becomes paranoid and cautious, analyzing his options and trying to escape. He describes a high-speed chase where he tries to lose the police while keeping an eye on them. Eventually, he finds a safe spot and leaves the driver while running to a safehouse. Ghetts arrives at a girl's house, gasping for breath but determined to confront the person who betrayed him. He confronts the person, who also reaches for a weapon, but Ghetts is prepared and shoots him. In the chaos, one of the shots ends up hitting the person's partner instead. Ghetts escapes through the backdoor, jumping over fences to evade capture. The song ends with Ghetts acknowledging the severity of his actions and the consequences he now faces. He acknowledges that he is in a worse position than before and begs for help in explaining his situation. The lyrics suggest that Ghetts is now faced with the repercussions of his actions, possibly legal consequences and an inner struggle with guilt and regret.
