Roots, The - Guns Are Drawn Lyrics
Yeah it would be cool it could be too
Stop Running round in circles off of what we fuel
Living a lie eventually believing it's true
A lot of people here for us one could be you
It's outrageous and they just ain't nothing
A favor for a favor man, this is the majors
Tell me what you would do with no phone or pagers
No Kinko's, no Fed Ex and no ATM's
What you gone do when the poliece state vegin
Well it already began but I guess it depends on what's really going on
what's happening, huh
Military target practicing
They finna write another patriot act again
The days is short the nights is long
The fight goes on
[Hook:]
The middle of the night
We fight like barbarians
In sight of the former might
You might think that it's a waste
Of our time
And I think you would be right
Till he drop that rhyme
[Repeat]
And some might say that it's a waste of time
Cause ain't no amount of dancing finna break the bondage
We go to war and transcend space and time
When every record ain't a record just to shake behinds
You know the stakes is high we in the face of drama
That's why we can't shake it or escape the problem
Its like a game of roulette the barrel revolving
They only wanna see us occupying a coffin
Mothers crying too often from they lost child leaving
From trying to get over, get under, get even
Get inside getting, getting dumped, getting greedy
We got to get it right
It ain't about to be easy
You better pull you goggles up, it's about to get greasy
Believe it's on as long as we can still speak freely
Pages of my life would make it hard to read me
I know my people hearing me, holler it you hear me
[Repeat Hook]

Es, todo lo que amí me representa
el estilo real, tan bestial de los noventa, se concentra
TE COLOCA COMO EL ORFIDAL,
tu vida se ve resentida como tu medula espinal
me hace dudar, mira el final, de forma incredular
yo te puedo matar romper el bafle sin mas
tengo habilidad no se desgaste claro que te jodo en traps
por que nunca me adelantaste yo voy en a todo gas
no puedes pararme vuelo como un cormorán
yo te atravieso yo tengo exceso de polvorá
como va en este estilo yo vengo sin criminal
un criminal en el binilo vete al juicio ya, verdad
tengo calidad tremenda solo habilidad comprendas
una versatilidad que no creo que tu entiendas
no puede parar este estilo lo ves cabron
por que no se ofrece en la calle ni tampoco en teletienda
solo es un estilo criminal en el binilo asesina a todos los que vengan del modo leyenda
nadie pudo ni nadie podra conmigo
adios por que soy tu dios mejor que ahora me hagas las ofrendas
fuck parguela , te mata ramera, desata la fiera, la gran pantera
eres el gran parguela, que te cargan la pistola y vas pa fuera.
