Pharoahe Monch - When The Gun Draws lyrics

(feat. Denaun Porter) [Chorus:] First the gun draws and you know, that something's happening Then darkness falls and oh, your heart beats rapidly Be prepared because, war is coming You can't be scared now, when the streets is calling you [Verse 1:] Good evening, My name's Mr. Bullet I respond to the index when you pull it, the trigger So make a note, take a vote Quick man, nickname's Quaker Oates 'cause Whether domestic violence or coke deals See how less has changed brain matter to oatmeal And when I k** kids they say shame on me Who the f** told you to put they names on me? White man made me venom to eliminate Especially when I'm in the hood, I never discriminate Just get in 'em, then I renovate Flesh, bone, ain't nothing for me to penetrate And it can happen so swiftly One false move might just shift me If I'm in-lodged and your soul's not claimed I'll remind that a** when it's about to rain like [Chorus] [Verse 2:] Would the new method of murder be arson or firebombs? If the cost of a single bullet was more than the firearm Strange that is, when all exits are final Point blank range that is My attitude is cold and callous k**ed Kings in Tennessee Presidents in Dallas And if the past be known, at last we know What happened that afternoon on the Gra**y Knoll It's what made a widow of Jackie O. The government hired Lee Harvey to blast me though Fatality shot entered from the right temple Was not fired from a six-story window Can it be that it was all so simple, But yet remains so painful to rekindle I come through your city I'm hot Whether you're jiggy or not Whether your Biggie or 'Pac "When the Gun Draws" [Chorus]
