Self Defense |
| This is self defense. |
| x2 |
| This ain’t no threat man, ??? |
| This is self defense |
| Ain’t no tough guy talk, |
| we’re just doing what we have to I think ya better let it go You need attention? |
| I send medical |
| Basically you’re trying to harm me, you’re crazy |
| Musically, I’m blazin'. |
| Physically, I’m gracy |
| Triangle choke ya And what the fuck could have provoked ya? |
| We don’t know eachother kid, and I did not insult ya Don’t make me feed the fish, feed the trees, or feed the vultures |
| I don’t know stones, I throw statues and sculptures |
| I block flows with strikes and strikes with blows |
| I slice flows with my mic (get showns)? |
| I counterattack and turn the tables in an instant |
| Move out of range and step into close distance |
| Resistance, relax with less friction |
| Leverage and technique bring jokes and submissions |
| You got heart, you plan to make it happen |
| But none of my family are chumps or never have been |
| Respect mine, protect myself at all times |
| Build twice next time before you cross the line |
| I guess this is what you call a turn of events |
| And the best offense is a good defense |
| Yo, you wanna hit us? |
| We can hit back |
| If you talk that talk, you got’s to live that. |
| (This is self defense) |
| Whenever you front out, you gonna get back. |
| (This is self defense) |
| Self Defense, you wish you never did that. |
| (This is self defense) |
| Yo, stay ready for the worst |
| Paranoid, straight, smart |
| enemies hit ya where you think you’re safe. |
| (Self Defense) |
| I cut my fingerprints with razor blades |
| I’m in the cut, the kind you don’t recognize with shades |
| Tattoos, learn two tricks |
| only thing between me and the borders and the straight face |
| Answers to questions, four eye contact |
| this confrontation ain’t physical, but still combat |
| Leave ya’self left with options to choose |
| The last line of defense of my crew, (dope rules?) |
| Psychic, precise, right and exact for songs |
| Only time we’ve been wrong is when we thought we were wrong |
| The science are format’s own conclusive, but peace first and war, last. |
| These words are crucial |
| Conflict resolved, but to those that want to brawl: |
| Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional |
| Also, dropping the ball ain’t reccommended |
| when life or death decisions are made within seconds |
| Of course we make the right ones, strategically through |
| Self defense, but not by myself. |
