Lyrics
0:04Here comes the revolutionist executionist
0:07Flip a triple six into three nines cause a crucifix
0:10Each man holding no man folding
0:13Coast is clear and Premier's in the green tank rolling
0:15Prepare get on your post and stand clear
0:18They wanting to shut us down but the home team's here
0:21What you act like you're sweet or something
0:23This ain't no desert storm bullshit war we all dumping
0:26Codename Jamel wit non-strap
0:29Wit six clips of teflon suited in camoflagued
0:31Got kevlar helmets wit masses
0:33Wearing mob gear in cause they try to infumigate us wit gases
0:36Mission--to seek and destroy
0:38We were sent to get rid of you make the situation critical
0:42First Family will gradually lift that ass up like gravity
0:45And turn your body frame into a cavity
0:47NFO--that's no fair ones
0:50Watch me nine milly turn into a flare gun
0:52Sparking wit the same marksman
0:54Known for gunning and running and bombing
0:55Wit the lyrics squeeze of my gun barking ya heard
0:59You know my family style
1:00I'm going out wit my gun in my hand like Big Mal
1:03I ain't got nutting to lose so move on me if there's something to prove fool
1:08This is war
1:08"There's a war going on outside no man is safe from"
1:11"So what you gonna do since you know now"
1:13"There's a war going on outside" "It's impossible to stop"
1:18This world's a twisted maze but I got the swiftest blades
1:21My swords they can slice and dice precise ways
1:24Those who come against me can get blazed sprayed and laid
1:27No trace just a glimpse of my face hitting the shade
1:29You look up there's a full moon in the sky
1:32And all my would-be enemies yeah they're soon to die
1:34Living in this warzone we frequent fly at home
1:37Many of us grow violent prone ain't trying to be dying alone
1:40So I'ma take the competition wit me Lord forgive me
1:43But a whole bunch of blood-sucking punks is out to get me
1:45In a flash of a moment I slash vital components
1:48Trying to scheme on me and my team bitch you know we own this
1:50We can scrap wit guns knives chains and bats
1:53Whatever baby erase that ass quick fast off the map
1:55Plus they better bring medical attention after I swing my weapon
1:58Won't be no recovery no divine intervention
2:01No prevention from getting hung in the streets where I'm from
2:04'Nuff blood shed this war's just begun
2:06"There's a war going on outside no man is safe from"
2:09"So what you gonna do since you know now"
2:11"There's a war going on outside" "It's impossible to stop"
2:17"There's a war going on outside no man is safe from"
2:19"So what you gonna do since you know now"
2:22"There's a war going on outside" "It's impossible to stop"
2:27How many predators out there that want me
2:30That's how I stand off now
2:33I come to diminish every one of you blood suckers
2:35Hands off lay em down now
2:38All culprits be alarmed
2:41First Officer Danze reporting for 'Nam
2:43When I'm bringing the storm I'm all in
2:46Yes I done stepped in the chest of many men
2:49THEN AGAING it's a part of my persona like puff stumps and marijuana
2:52Iiaaah soutch em out FIRE
2:54From all angles that's how we was trained
2:56Either slay or be slain it's in the game for my soul
3:00To be as cold as the blood in my vein
3:01Knowing my name help niggas perform abnorm
3:04First family let's get it on
3:06Just keep in mind I'm a marksman I'm sensitive about that there
3:10So you better watch what you say to me hear
3:12Play wit em fierce know where to run
3:14So I post and defend forgive me Father I may sing
3:17And thou shall remember the code of the street
3:20(Hold heat) roll deep (don't sleep) or you'll be murdered
3:23Since I've arrived I learned how to survive on this earth
3:26Holding down this turf now I declare war
3:30"There's a war going on outside no man is safe from"
3:34"It's impossible to stop" (yeah)
3:38"There's a war going on outside" "It's impossible to stop"
3:46"No man is safe" "There's a war going on outside"
