Mobb Deep - Boom Goes The Cannon lyrics

[Intro] Uh Yeah [Chorus] Boom! goes the cannon, watch the blood and the sh**-spray How can we keep leading if the people keep retreating? Nah Boom! goes the cannon, push forward, no fear We gon' win this war and run them clowns outta here Boom! goes the cannon, watch them bodies and guns drop Now we the real leaders, opposition retreats when Boom! goes the cannon, push forward, no fear We gon' take the war and run them outta here [Verse 1] Take it out That's my right hand man we like to [?] You got my back, I got your back when the sa** begins We grew up in the slums, broke bread together When worse came to worse, rolled out the weather Have faith, knew it couldn't be this bad forever And once the sun shined, it could only get better Birds of a feather, we goin' the same places It's like [?] whatever came our way Your kids is my kids, vice-versa You ain't ask who you beef with, only where to burn them Never blink a eye, you'll back down just to hold the fort down For you'll be the strong gal, my shoulder's running wild [?] Courtesy of [?] And though you not here, you lookin' down at me smiling We took an oath to keep the name afloat We infamous forever, homie, the ultimate G.O.A.T.S [Chorus] Boom! goes the cannon, watch the blood and the sh**-spray How can we keep leading if the people keep retreating? Nah Boom! goes the cannon, push forward, no fear We gon' win this war and run them clowns outta here Boom! goes the cannon, watch them bodies and guns drop Now we the real leaders, opposition retreats when Boom! goes the cannon, push forward, no fear We gon' take the war and run them outta here [Verse 2] Yeah, yeah We are at war, no man is safe You can't hide forever Die on the battlefield to rise up and take power If 32,000 troops in New York harbor We outgunned, outmanned, and outnumbered If 32,000 troops in New York harbor We outplanned, out our mind pushing forward We a powder keg about to explode Wish we had a man like Hamilton to lighten the load Send the word, get 'em He want to fight, he got the hunger Yeah, I was just like him when I was younger Uh Head full of fantasies, dying like a martyr, but look Dying is easy young man, livin' is harder There's gonna be pools of blood in New York Harbor Rah! Gunfire and cannonballs, it's on, son Pools of blood in New York Harbor Rah! Willin' to die on Revolutionary Wardom [Chorus] Boom! goes the cannon, watch the blood and the sh**-spray How can we keep leading if the people keep retreating? Nah Boom! goes the cannon, push forward, no fear We gon' win this war and run them clowns outta here Boom! goes the cannon, watch them bodies and guns drop Now we the real leaders, opposition retreats when Boom! goes the cannon, push forward, no fear We gon' take the war and run them outta here
