Yeah... Real ones know... Silence ain't weakness... It's discipline. You see a calm bloke, reckon that I've gone soft, Don't know the roads that I crawled my way off. Bit my tongue more times than I can count, Nowadays I use my head before I run my mouth. Worked too hard just to throw it away, Trying to build something honest day by day. But some people think respect's for free, Keep testing this bloke, soon you'll see why it's best to be silent, instead talking shit about me............... calculated violence,hitting you up when you should have shut ya mouth you'll be eating through a straw Laying twisted and broken in the emergency ward wires and sensors audio heart beat sounds consider that Luck..... the ALTERNATIVE is toolbox in the fucking ground ....... They never knew the nights, never knew the crew, Never knew what survival made a young guy do. Now they wanna push, backstab and pry acting like there been me and know my fucking life All jokes stop, when Im standing at the scene Acting like they don't know why im staring silent straight through THERE eyes. The lion didn't die...i learned to be patient.... when you done being the loudest, flexing and hoping all these people hear your words and just think your the baddest, the toughest one around that no one will challenge Then be a man the next time you see me run ya mouth, talk the shit, bring the same energy read the room Strength ain't loud... silence is control . silence ain't weakness cos I ain't yelling loud barking all day is for dogs like you wolves don't bark they watch and wait until your left with wounds only BITES can make yeah I've lost a few but that made me hard evolved in what it took to live a street crime life earnt real respect and loyalty, reputation with fights violently bashed and left all bloody left them helpless laying in the gutter 45's & 38 sounds..... echos LOUD and far from the 12 gauge rounds BURN CITY CREW WESTERN suburbs TRIPLE THREE SEVEN GROUNDS Check your mouth... Before you wake the past. Some of us changed, But the lessons still last. I don't want war, I just want peace. But don't mistake restraint For defeat. Real ones know... The lion still breathes. Just because he's quiet, Doesn't mean he leaves. I've buried mates, buried pride, buried rage, Locked that chapter on another page. These scars don't fade when the years roll by, They just teach you when to stand and why. Trying to be the man my younger self never knew, Pay the bills, go to work, see the hard days through. But disrespect's a language I've heard before, Don't make me remember what it sounded like You'll be treated like the weak dogs before Nowadays I'd rather walk than fight, Rather sleep with a clear head every night. Because freedom's worth more than proving a point, And one bad choice can break every joint. Don't confuse calm with fear. Don't confuse silence with surrender. The wolf doesn't bark all day... He watches. Check your mouth... Respect goes both ways. Some of us fought wars Long before today. I chose this road, I won't lose my name. Still the same heart... Just playing a different game. The lion still lives... He just learned control. And that's the strongest thing A man can know. [Outro] You'll get the old me shoulda shut ya mouth you can't handle can't even handle the one I am now
