[Intro]
Hard work

[Verse 1]
Doubling up my cup
Got me pouring up more than Amy in the Wine house (Winehouse)
Gave you your credentials, made you presidential
Turned your trap into a White House
Acting like my self, but no I'm not the one
And don't forget that this is my house
Like a Smith & Wesson, you gon' learn a lesson
Make the blammer go blow-blow

[Pre-Chorus]
All I did for you, and this is how you do
And all you did was prove that you was ungrateful
No, I tried to save you
Bound to make me hate you (War)

[Chorus]
If this is war
I'ma fight to get it right
But if you try me, somebody gon' get hurt, uh-huh
And you better hope it's you and not me first
'Cause this is war
Everything's pretty 'til it hits the dirt
This is war (War)
[Verse 2]
I know you been believin' in your wooden Jesus
You ain't feel it 'til you felt it
So was your momma and I swear she taught ya
So I know that you can't really help it
No, you don't appreciate or respect my space
Boy, you know you're selfish
Making bad decisions, you need supervision
Like a child, so reckless

[Pre-Chorus]
All I did for you, and this is how you do
And all you did was prove that you was ungrateful
No, I tried to save you
Bound to make me hate you (War)

[Chorus]
If this is war
I'ma fight (I'ma fight) to get it right
But if you tried me, somebody gon' get hurt, uh-huh (Yeah)
And you better hope it's you and not me first
'Cause this is war (War, yeah, yeah)
Everything's pretty 'til it hits the dirt
This is war (War)

[Outro]
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
