Business Or Art |
All he had to do was just enjoy the ride |
Get on my level (Business) |
A Gang Starr with a gangster, on a mission |
We come and infiltrate your whole cypher man (Art) |
Business or art? |
Fist or steel? |
Industry or street? |
Fake or real? |
Cold or hot? |
Truth or trash? |
War or peace? |
Longevity or cash? |
Here’s one for SPIN, Billboard, and Rolling Stone |
Hip Hop is so organic, it’ll grow on its own |
We watch 'em throw money at it with clout and power |
But after a while, things faded out and went sour |
Somebody lost their shirt, execs got fired |
Some artist went berserk, took mad drugs and got wired |
Hundreds of thousands, up to millions in promo |
All wasted on garbage, now, that was a no-no |
Oh no, what’s gonna happen now to these fools? |
These self-centered pricks were showered, proud of 'em too |
Never that, 'cause I am the renegade realist |
Street visionary, the end of days idealist |
People often ask, «What's the key to longevity» |
How I’m so consistent and bring the heat incredibly |
Intelligence is vital and always stay hood |
'Cause this is our culture, and we need to make good |
Business or art? |
Fist or steel? |
Industry or street? |
Fake or real? |
Cold or hot? |
Truth or trash? |
War or peace? |
Longevity or cash? |
Business or art? |
Let’s pick it apart |
If you ain’t spittin' out your heart, you’d be considered a mark |
The bullshit gotta stop, 'cause when it’s business o’clock |
You hear the tickin' and the tockin' on the digital watch |
Yeah, time is money, and they don’t find it funny |
They’ll show up where you live, make your environment bloody, buddy |
They’ll kick in the door, tell you, «Get on the floor» |
They bust a .9 and bust some rhymes, you like, «Gimme some more» |
Askin' you where your heart is, but you an artist |
You was never as hard as you said you was |
Maybe lyin', wasn’t the smartest decision you ever made |
'Cause this business ain’t regulated |
If you beefin' over beats in these streets, you’ll never make it |
Now you singin' to cops, that’s your favorite tune, nigga |
They ain’t got Yelp reviews for goons, nigga |
Hip-hop, homie, that’s our lane |
It’s Gang Starr with the Black Star gang |
We bang-bang when it’s business or art |
Business or art? |
Fist or steel? |
Industry or street? |
Fake or real? |
Cold or hot? |
Truth or trash? |
War or peace? |
Longevity or cash? |
All he had to do was just enjoy the ride |
G-G-Get on my level (Business) |
A Gang Starr with a gangster, on a mission |
We come and infiltrate your whole cypher man (Art) |
