Dilated Peoples - Self Defense lyrics

This is self defense
This ain't no threat man
It's just a disclaimer this is self defense
Ain't no tough guy talk
We're just doing what we have to

I think ya better let it go
You need attention? I send medical
Basically you're trying to harm me
You're crazy
Musically I'm blazin', Physically, I'm Gracie
Triangle choke ya
And what the fuck could have provoked ya?
We don't know each other kid
And I did not insult ya
Don't make me feed the fish, feed the trees
Or feed the vultures i don't throw stones
I throw statues and sculptures
I block flows with strikes
And strikes with blows
I slice flows with my mic at shows
I counterattack and turn the
Tables in an instant
Move out of range and step
In to close distance
Resistance, relax with less friction
Leverage and technique bring
Chokes and submissions
You got heart, you plan to make it happen
But none of my family are
Chumps or never have been
Respect mine, protect myself at all times
Build twice next time before
You cross the line i guess this is what you
Call a turn of events
And the best offense is a good defense

Yo, you wanna hit us? We can hit back
If you talk that talk, you got's to live that
(This is self defense)
Whenever you front out, you gonna get back
(This is self defense)
Self Defense, you wish you never did that
(This is self defense)

Yo, stay ready for the worst
Paranoid, straight, smart
Enemies hit ya where you think you're safe
(Self Defense)
I cut my fingerprints with razor blades
I'm in the cut
The kind you don't recognize with shades
Tattoos, learn two tricks
Only thing between me and the
Borders and the straight face
Answers to questions, full eye contact
This confrontation ain't physical
But still combat
Leave ya'self left with options to choose
The last line of defense of my crew
Don't lose
Psychic, precise, right and exact for songs
Only time we've been wrong is when
We thought we were wrong
The science are format's own conclusive
But peace first and war, last
These words are crucial conflict resolved
But to those that want to brawl
Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional
Also, dropping the ball ain't recommended
When life or death decisions
Are made within seconds
Of course we make the right ones
Strategically through
Self defense, but not by myself, Babu
