Who's in the shadows
Who's ready to play
Are we the hunters
Or are we the prey
Who's in the shadows
Who's ready to play
Are we the hunters
Or are we the prey
[Verse 1: Tedy P]
What is going on in this nation today
People fighting, looting, shootin’ cops like it’s okay
Chanting “Black Lives Matter” yeah is that all you got to say
Like what about every single other race
We are a nation of immigrants I think that y’all forgot
Every single life matters so love the one that you got
Even though I know sometimes that’s a lot easier said than done
But think about the people walking around with a loaded gun
For strictly their own protection and civilians alike
What if someone as such was out in aurora that night
The lunatic sprayin’ shootin’ everyone in sight
What if some random criminal just saved your life
Would you then admit sometimes it is alright
To carry a concealed even if you don’t have a permit
That don’t mean you would get shot down like Alton Sterling
What happened to the questioning, making people prove it
Too many just accept what they hear, it’s foolish
[Hook]
Who's in the shadows
Who's ready to play
Are we the hunters
Or are we the prey
Who's in the shadows
Who's ready to play
Are we the hunters
Or are we the prey
[Verse 2: G-BOY]
Are you the hunter or the prey, are you free or enslaved
In a prison for your mind put your soul in a cage
Niggas still bustin’ shots for the blocks where they hang
Peoples lurking in the shadows for the hearts of many men
Too much hate in the world but with pain comes strength
For the men that’s your rising, stand up against
Those who may pose an immediate threat
To our welfare, our families or the way that we live
The moment has come time to load up the straps
If they violate my rights I be forced to bust caps
This is for the ones, locked behind bars
In the land of the free in the home of the slave
How much more can we take before we start to break
And lose our control of our life day to day
They fear us i know it what they do it shows it
This young gangsta poet gon’ rise and expose it
[Hook]
Who's in the shadows
Who's ready to play
Are we the hunters
Or are we the prey
Who's in the shadows
Who's ready to play
Are we the hunters
Or are we the prey
[Verse 3: The Beast]
Yo let me get in at the end step back and watch me lend
Another freestyle, I know you’re impressed so tell a friend
Wanna send, that’s cool but you’ll have to fend
Against the man who can lyrically walk off land
Yo I be carrying concealed weapon every night and
You wanna come at me best be ready to fight
When The Beast hits The Beast hits hard, ain’t never light
You wanna come at me, best be ready to write
When this mic's in my hand I'm a cannibal man
Eat my own kind, damn, I'm an animal, fam
If you a grown man then stand if you can
On your own to feet with a tangible plan
So foul meanwhile men women and chil’
You wanna praise me then go back sellin’ crack vile
You better improve, or you lose, the body count pile
Don’t chat just do, I be reppin’ meanwhile
