Choice Of Weapons |
What’s the question? |
Why are you flexin |
Here’s the answer — choice of weapons |
Yo +The? |
Remainz+, kid why you flexin like a bicep |
Heat on your hip, just to get a rep, it ain’t worth it |
Just because you pack a biscuit, doesn’t mean you can’t |
Become another statistic, you figure it |
Life’s a gamble even for vandalz, I handle mine with minds |
Only unless, my chest is under pressure in a contest |
The fear of layin in wreck, causes the stress |
I have to adjust to this mess and pull when it’s best |
Yo little big man, feelin your oats, because you’re strapped? |
Bustin a cap at another kid who’s black? |
It ain’t all that when the shots are flyin back |
You made a choice, and the choice you made was wack |
Kinda tipsy with the liquid confidence |
Pullin your pistol when it doesn’t make sense |
To be the bigger man you figure |
But in the end it don’t pay when you’re livin by the trigger |
Yeah it’s the master of the who what where and the why |
But still I got a problem with seein my brothers die |
I’ve been around and lived past the average age of us |
In every obituary, a full page of us |
The game is money, but what about inner wealth? |
The mental, the spiritual, and physical health |
But still everyday the city is a test |
That’s why some people feel a gun is the best |
No doubt I pack protection, but every altercation |
Or situation doesn’t deserve blastin, I mastered precisions |
Choice of weapon, should I peel or peel out? |
My choice of routes may decide my whereabouts |
I pack no weapons then the seargeant bargin in |
Ready to bomb a rapper like Saddam, Stikken Moov swarm |
Ready to bust off, like Ron Jeremy, but I chill G |
Relax and consider lucky to live to see a quarter past three |
That’s why I, wield the steel, yes my microphone is crazy real |
I’m not the one sellin out to get the mass appeal |
But jail cells are filled with my peeps |
While the rest are gettin killed in these ill ass streets |
So, pick your weapon, a mic or a gun |
I make a sucker run when my tongue stuns, check it |
Leavin the spot, I seen some wild kids |
One stepped to me asked me to freestyle kid |
Meanwhile, he flexed a burner on his side |
I looked him in the eye, smiled, and walked to my ride |
He was actin kinda hard on the surface |
I said to myself that it really wasn’t worth it |
Yo you think you’re all that, cause you pack heat? |
Seein your own brother play the concrete, in defeat |
Tryin to prove yourself, while you put the next man down |
But what goes around, comes back, black best believe that |
You know what I’m sayin? |
That’s all the real heads all over the world |
That realize, that this music is real |
That we keep it real like that |
Peace to all my brothers on the third |
And all the real brothers in hip-hop |
It’s like a rap’s new generation thing baby |
Peace to Guru |
It’s Panche, the wild comanche, suicide |
