It is your k**er instinct which must be harnessed if you expect to survive in combat
[Canibus: Hook (x4)]
(spelling "lyrics warfare" in the background while performing hook)
Let me hear your war cry
Let me see your war face
Lyrical warfare
[Webb: Verse 1]
I be the super human being from Queens
No question, God, I'll flip your squad like pages in a magazine
Plus my offspring will bring lyrical havoc to the Earth
I leave broken mics while I blow spots so I can mark my turf
And I'll get wild you attempt to test my style
I'll run your sh** like DMC when they were still on profile 'cause I'm known to get exotic when it's time to flip a topic
I'll slice your vocal chords like brake lines and I tell you stop it
'Cause I get down when I represent my hometown
I turn your shawty's facial expression to an upside down frown
And if it's critical, I'll get physical like fitness
And if I can't pay the attorney fees, then I'll just threaten the witness
Cause word, I get absurd with my word combinations
Plus, I got sh** down like incarceration
And like inflation, I'm rising to another level
So if you're mentally weak, I'll snatch your soul like the devil
[Canibus: Hook (x4)]

Let me hear your war cry

[Canibus]
This is lyrical warfare, yeah
I can absorb pain a grizzly couldn't "bear"
Concepts that range from complex to simple
The weed makes my eyes squint like an oriental
Putting sh** together like a stapler, because I'm greater
The flavor got me open like women in labor
The scariest, Sagittarius physcopath
I make n***as hit high notes and shatter gla**
I smoke weed on your lawn if the sign says "keep off the gra**" because I gots no cla**
n***as talk sh** and ust be getting on my nerves
If I was in your Tim's, I wouldn't say a word
'Cause I'm definitely gonna amped and lose my temper and probably blow a hole in your control center
I be hitting your frame with the aim of a sniper
And causing big trouble in your girl's little vagina
Letting the bacteria ooze from crew the I crush
The rhymes I bus' use contain puss
For real, the only choice is to k** or be k**ed
I use nine mils' just like n***a's Achille's heels
And I can't suppress how I feel when I'm blunted in the concrete jungle where the hunters becomes the hunted
Nine out of ten n***as don't want it, because they too scared
This is lyrical warfare

Lyrical warfare
[Webb]
I flip metaphors [tri-flips?] like in world tours
If my technique overheats I'll sweat lyrics out my pores
'Cause God, you know my vibe is far from a nine-to-five
So I freak techniques over beats to stay alive
When I blow spots, it's causes lyrical devastation
And makeMCs madder than college students at registration
Got rhymes galore, inventory like a store
Plus I tote mics like magnum totes a forty-four
And my lyrical content is eighty-proof like [vacahties?]
So verbally bring the ruckus to your party like a yardie
No doubt, I heat it up until my flow starts to boil
And slam MCs like a cage-match [that'll ?]
I can be rich like top-soil, i'll fold your crew like tinfoil, and bag your shawty if she ain't loyal
[Canibus]
Whisper your ideas in my ears, n***a, I'm with it
I figure s long as it bleeds, we can will it
Yo, who among you is brave enough to test me
I drop through your motherf**ing zone like Wesley
Sipping the Hennessy so I can get nice
Beating n***as to d**h and beating dead n***as to life
This whole rap thing belongs to me
I got the title deed, the proof of purchase, and the receipt
Lyrical gifted
You tote twin Glocks? I tote triplets
A soccer goalie couldn't stop it when I kick it
Canibus: I'm the state of the art like the mantis
My fly metaphors provide cures for cancers
n***as who don't wanna listen become my victims
I break them down like they don't got no immune system
The original HIV virus
I blow you up like Samsung when I penetrate your sinus
I'm dishonest like the government
I'm lovin' it
In my basement I got aliens and motherships
On some other sh**, like a [fly off?]
I spark a cypher so I can get my cuts like a barber
Whoever can survive in another planets atmosphere can breathe the air, then Ima meet you there
[sample from the movie "Full Metal Jacket"]
(so, you're a k**er?)
Sir, yes, sir!
(let me see your war face)
Sir!
(you got a war face?)
("ahhh", that's a warface! now, let me see your warface!)
Ahhhhhh
(bullsh**, you didn't convince me! let me see your real war face!)
Ahhhhh
(you don't scare me, work on it)

Cease fire! cease fire, god damn it!
Cease fire!
