Wu-Tang Forever


The City


[Inspectah Deck]
Check it, yo
The world is shifty, we livin just enough for the city
The rough witty Killa Bee sting just like the jiggy
My family stone, foes attempt to gradually clone
Label them my anus and the casualty's home
In closed coffins, Wu stormin like the light brigade
Ride the wave like Frankie Avalon as I decipher AIDS, crime pays
The law's long arm be tryin to strongarm
Walkin timebombs before I bomb firearm
The chalm smoker, I hit the dread with a poster
He told with his own love and expose the black toaster
Composer was shook
I took your bad looks for joke get your back broke
Deep throat this murder I wrote
The antidote be seekin like a buried treasure
By every measure lethally inject your whole sector
Wanted dead or alive
Rebel I escapes across the desert sand
Leavin no footprints to trace
Keep a war face, in your place
Conceal the baby knives
On the north breaks I still shine in shady times

Yo, yo
We livin just enough (livin just enough)
Just enough (for the ci-ty)
Just enough, for the ci-ty

Yo, in the jungle
I make moves like Iron Monkey
Plots to bump me off D.O.T. be on the hunt for me
We stay hungry, for money drugs and guns
Ones who fake get caught in the crossfire for crumbs
Know the science be my Goddess
The facts tell gats sell like sex and violence
And break the project silence
A vision, this is way beyond four corners
Escape this mental prison before we're all goners
Now brace the world for the world war we supposed ta bomber
Visionary soldier comma, my code of honor
Mind still start from the drama
Trauma sent the victim, witness them run, scream in horror
Military chopper come gun down the slums
The outcome do or die son it's bound to come
Mentally aware I see truth within the square
The future's here catch me on computer software
Warfare's inevitable
Rebel I hold several government official issue 38-specials
Then step through, like Nat Turner create a spectacle
I may die in the scuffle but I'm takin forty devils

We livin just enough
Just enough
Just enough
For the ci-ty
For the ci-ty

Killa beez, sting MCszZUH, yeah, Wu
