Art Of War
[Intro: Ché Noir]
Huh! Uh-huh
Yo!

[Verse: Ché Noir]
Look, I'm with some day one n***as that I'm dying for
And we're all successful, this is style that you can't buy in stores
Straighten n***as up, I keep a gun as big as an iron board
We both got guns, but see, I spray with mine, you gon’ die with yours
These guys is nervous
I just write the verses, recite the verses inside of churches
Sounds like I’m spittin' Bible verses
But ain’t no pen when I write these verses
The only time I use a pen is on receipts, when I sign in cursive
Bullets flying like we’re at the Matrix
Infatuated, bitch, I move my trigger finger like I'm masturbatin’
I had to pace it, I had to practice greatness
It had me anxious for the top, rather I’m first or the last to make it
A short temper, gotta practice patience
I shoot an 'op and he don’t die?
That’s the only time I get aggravated
I keep a swell shooter at my graces
This gun loud, will clap faster than black mommas at graduations
Since a minor, I had a purpose to win
Gotta use your hands and your feet like you learnin’ to swim
First, you gotta know how to earn what you spend
Now I got enough water on my wrist for a mermaid to swim
I gave y’all hits to inspire and make y’all rich
The graveyard shift
For this, I had to take hard risks
I’m from a place y’all scared to raise y'all kids
In this type of environment where the fiends got a canine sniff
Been a slick talker before I could spell the word “dollar”
Wrap your body in a curtain, and sell it to your momma
She get home, unwrap it, see your body and scream
With a note inside that say, "Tell your friends you bought it from me!"
I got my hustle from the strong bloodline in my genes
You gotta pay me just to talk, I ain’t even smilin' for free
Bitch, all I’m dropping is heat
I treat these rappers like they're animals
You see, I’m on a hunt
That’s why I’m rockin’ this mink, n***a
[Outro]
But too many of us are lazy
And too many of us are comfortable
And too many of us have accepted pain as the predominant feature in our lives
And what that means is that, we have become comfortable with the ills that are happening to our children
We expect them to die young, we expect their friends to die young
We expect their cousins to die young
And we are upset about it, but not upset enough to bring about a radical change!
