"Gang Warfare" lyrics

"Gang Warfare"

It's gang warfare
Messing up the town and country
You know it does not pay to join this badman posse
Gang warfare
Messing up the town and country
You know it does not pay to join this badman posse

Gang warfare is right around the corner
Gang warfare, your sister and your brother
Gang warfare, you're killing one another
Gang warfare, why don't you help each other?

Inna, inna, inna, inna Brooklyn, all the shooting around
Inna Shaolin, down by the Cowboy Town
The gangs and gunmen got their fingers on the trigger
And you can bet your life they don't take no prisoners

Gang warfare
Messing up the town and country
You know it does not pay

Them a run, them a come, fi shoot up the dance
Them a run, them a come, fi shoot up the dance
A gwan like cowboy grip on the draw
No want respect, yet to be big 'bout yah
A model themself after nuff gangster
Like Colt, Baby Face and Dillinger
But history books said them never get very far
And now them full of bullet hole and bay-batty strainer
So listen to me carefully and consider
When you shooting up your brethren and a kill your sister
You better take a trip to South Africa
And run inna the bush like a freedom fighter
And help black people get liberation and nuff respect
And I will call you a deh

Gang warfare
Gang warfare
Beware

I see you roaming the streets fully equipped
Uzis packed, brothers firmly clipped
You can't cope with the sucker who tried to pull a joke or two
So you get high on crack and you smoke a few
Trying to be what you're not, so you aim to be a villain
Gaining respect by street killing
You're playing the role of Baby Face to Capone
But you should leave it alone and leave your weapon at home, punk

Gang warfare
Gang warfare
Beware

'Cause soon you'll get popped with a Magnum
Or an Uzi, or semi-automatic machine gun
Breathing your last breath, and death is inevitable
Trying to move but you can't, you're not capable
You're getting closer to the edge
So take a moment of time to hear the lesson that we send
Think homeboy, set a goal
Instead of rolling with the gang with
The crazy plan I hear you strolling with
I'm from the streets, I know the deal
And if a sucker be basing, I got to get ill
But you on the other hand, you take out the brother man
'Cause he was the color that's opposite to the other gang

Gang warfare
Gang warfare
Beware

Everybody say peace
Come on, say peace
Everybody say peace
Somebody say ho
Say ho, ho
Say ho, ho, ho
Now scream
Paris, peace sign
I wanna see the peace sign up in the air
Wave them hands up there
Right now we'd like you all to increase the peace
Steel Pulse in the house, we love you
Peace, I'm outta here
