[Intro: CNN]
We will drive them to the limit, drive the invading forces to the limit
Where they lose their patience and they will lose their hope
And the day will come where they are driven down to their lowest level and give up
This is the first time we have heard an Iraqi official articulate how they plan to try and win
They plan to try and do it here by making sure that the United States loses its patience, that the troops lose their hope, that their-their morale is driven to its lowest level
[Verse 1: GZA]
Due the hellish events, the days were numbered
Agitated and withdrawn, the addicts wonder
Moving through eternal hell, constantly beaming
In the grips of evil, wrestling with their own demons
An ordinary ride, extraordinary challenge
Back and forth between boroughs that was very hard to balance
Where the shots got louder, witnesses kept silent
Through those twelve terrain days of the summer, that stay violent
Soldiers that appeal to the boss' desire
Captivated by the idea of speed and quick to fire
Rushed, his orders came in a commanding tone
Carried out, executed within a battle zone
Action, spoke louder than words, that made him walk
'Cause these kids had came with more music, than less talk
Thinkin' that they was bigger than U.S. Steel
They couldn't close a deal, without a cap to peel
But once the atmosphere was exceptionally calm
But unanswered questions, what harms the firearm
It beats killing the counter, horrific in it's own way
A groundbreaking case, that lasted for another day
[Chorus: GZA]
This is the city of fast money, expensive cars, topless bars
Movie stars and executives with fat cigars
Record labels that ain't stable, with low appraisals
And the lie that burn bridges due to fragile cables
[Verse 2: GZA]
Write off that unpredictable things can happen
Well aware of the sudden danger, they start scrappin'
Violence can erupt within the blink of an eye
As a three night reign of terror light up the skies
Other uprisings are in the years of making
The young start sizing up the hood, and get to taking
A high voltage power line surrounds the gold mine
Soldiers on the front line who sell dimes and hold nines
Many times enjoying themselves, much too much
They hit the clutch, before they pull out on such and such
It's a very unforgiving environment
'Cause one out of two can get an early retirement
For many different reasons, the tale of the tape is uneven
What they perceive as a prank had stopped them from breathing
He was known to run towns, and brutally gun down
He said it was a great risk for him to be around
[Chorus: GZA]
This is the city of fast money, expensive cars, topless bars
Movie stars and executives with fat cigars
Record labels that ain't stable, with low appraisals
And the lie that burn bridges due to fragile cables
