[Intro: Sadat X]

Yeah, stop playing with them guns boy

Either you gon' lay them down, or you gon' hold 'em yours

New York, that's a hard place for that shit boy

Y'all just beast on that


[Verse 1: Ghettosocks]

Violence perpetuates violence, alert the medics

What's concealed between the First and the Third Amendments

What allowed a church attendant to murder Lenin

Get an autograph, come back burst and end it

Let's fight tooth and nail to prove truth prevails

Drop an Uzi in the movie watch it boost ya' sales

They name 'em after animals and endangered species

The pitter-patter of metal'll rearrange ya' faces

Schools won't touch it, it's apparent fools'll stray off

Discipline is uncool so parents choose to lay off

Kiddies run around like it's Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Till cops kick the door in, stare into the AR

So controversial conscious rappers lose consciousness

And the ex-cons never had consciences

Conflict of interest in business and politics

Who's gonna argue with a well-armed populace?


[Chorus: Ghettosocks & *samples*]

And right about now I'll use my authority

"'Cause I'm like the Wizard and you look lost like Dorothy"

The horror be when I return for my real people

"Birds'll split wigs hitting like, some double Desert Eagles"


[Verse 2: Sadat X]

[?], gun

Most everybody out here seen one, or at least seen what's it done (baow)

Did you ever lose one, did you ever choose one?

It's something about handling the gun

Make you feel like "I wish a nigga would in the hood, whatever"

It's more guns in the cold weather

You wear a big coat on, leather

And you walk wit' it and it pop you gotta come blasting 'cause you can be sent, to the everlasting

But once you are past it you gone

Niggas will grieve but eventually move on

You know them boys come fast when them bodies start dropping

And the snitches and the cameras the first place they check

D's love a good chase, yo that's they rep

You don't wanna go to New York court, they'll lose you up near the Canadians

And if you have any previous F's, breathe freedom's last breath


[Chorus: Ghettosocks & *samples*]

And right about now I'll use my authority

"'Cause I'm like the Wizard and you look lost like Dorothy"

The horror be when I return for my real people

"Birds'll split wigs hitting like, some double Desert Eagles"


[Verse 3: Patience]

Pair of ordinants' fucking vow of silence

Busy bees, worker ants, drones, sound of lions

Rang, bang bang, probably walking distance

From the manufacturer, imagine it, call me cynic

Never settle, drooling over these heavy metals

Fetish for weaponry, wack depositions at every level

From fledgling rebel to veteran pig, to scrap the gun registry affects the ghetto and kids

And it's true, from hauling Kalashnikovs across the Bering Strait

To Glock brandishing, hold it like Larenz Tate

Now I was more impressionable than I'd care to say

In my haven daydreaming America's errant ways

So here's the serenade of the flare grenade

A Canadian rap renaissance to the [?] days

A beat coil spring reaction to too much tragedy

A call to arms down, but the shoot-'em-up game distracted me


[Chorus: Ghettosocks & *samples*]

And right about now I'll use my authority

"'Cause I'm like the Wizard and you look lost like Dorothy"

The horror be when I return for my real people

"Birds'll split wigs hitting like, some double Desert Eagles"


[Outro: *sample* & Sadat X]
