JRA - The First Strike lyrics

Verse 1 [J.Ra] Unwinnable wars fought behind closed doors/ The fiends inhale knowledge gathered from the purest source/ Take a pause, as smog irritates your vocal chords/ Read the messages engraved on the blades of the sword/ The first man to rise shall be the last man to fall/ Stand tall like a wall through gunfights and brawls/ The attack on the track put drum tracks in morgues/ In the fog we await to bum rush your board/ Strike first with the pawns and checkmate the king/ Take the bishop from the side and kidnap the queen/ In a dream, i saw myself rich by nineteen/ Living large in the tropics with fat stacks of cream/ Rearrange the whole system to re-enact my vision/ A man with no mission is a man who ain't living/ The greatest of all treasures can be unearthed by wisdom/ True knowledge of self must always be earned and never given/ [samples] Verse 2 [J.Ra] Once the darts hit the track the enemy fell back/ The force of impact made jaw bones snap/ Many men stood tall but then laid flat/ No man could react to the speed of the attack/ Im going all in with no intent to fold/ I'll never sell my soul, never tempted by fools gold/ Societies of old try to reshape the globe/ Rise up against the mould and take back control/ The rampage breached the wall without warning/ Actions were justified by bigger portions/ Of the fortune, used as extortion/ The first strike can take life quicker than abortion/
