Soldier at War
Tech N9ne Lyrics

H.I.G.H.L.A.N.D. Highland nigga
I represent the Highland neighborhood, and I'm proud of it.

Heartless Insane Ghetto Hoodlum Livin' And Never Dyin'
I live a harsh and dangerous life in the ghetto, and I refuse to let it destroy me.

That's what I'm talkin' about
That's exactly what I'm emphasizing and advocating for.

Rogue dawgs, when I call my Rogue dawgs
I'm referring to my loyal and fearless crew, who are always ready to join me in any situation.

Rogue Dawg, niggaz
We are proud and fierce individuals who can't be tamed.

Fa the nine-eight
In the year 1998, we had to handle business.

We'll have to crash 'em like this nigga, yeah
We will aggressively confront our enemies and overpower them without hesitation.

My nigga my nigga we soldiers at war
My brothers, we are warriors engaged in a battle for survival.

Killin' off our enemies 'til it ain't no more
We will eliminate our rivals until they no longer pose a threat.

Laws we break yo' shit we'll take
We don't hesitate to break the law and take what we want.

Murder fo them bustas and hatas it ain't no escape
Those who oppose us or have ill intentions will meet their demise with no chance of escape.

Rogue Dawg fo life!
We are loyal to the Rogue Dawg crew for life.

It's the beginning of the endin' fo yo ass
Your downfall has started and is inevitable.

You broke ass niggaz hit the strip we need mo cash
Those of you who are financially struggling should engage in illegal activities to earn more money.

This midwest side hittin' like a M-1 time to get some
Our side of the Midwest is strong and influential, and it's time for us to take action.

Payback fo you bustas that laid back
We will seek revenge on those who have been complacent and apathetic towards us.

My gats ain't met yo next so fuck yo vest we dumpin'
Our firearms can penetrate any body armor you may have, so we won't hesitate to shoot at you.

Killin' all that punk shit that you heart be pumpin'
We will eliminate all the cowardly and disrespectful acts that make your heart race.

See somethin' I take it cuttin' through the red tape
If I want something, I will seize it without being hindered by rules or regulations.

Yo legs break tryin' to catch up who who led the race
You will fall behind and suffer injuries as you try to keep up with us, the leaders of this race.

It's 5-7 Highas heaven causin' insanity
We, the members of 57th Street, create chaos and madness that resembles the highest level of paradise.

Whatcha handin' me we'll have you bitch ass postin' the vanity ??s
Whatever you possess or offer will only make you look foolish and insignificant.

Gotta recoop fuckin' with these troops
You should be cautious and recover from your mistakes when dealing with our formidable group.

Soon as we see you Load up and we shoot on site
Once we spot you, we immediately prepare our weapons and open fire without hesitation.

We turnin' out the lights my appetite for destruction
We will eliminate any opposition and bring an end to anyone who threatens us, satisfying my desire for chaos.

Got me in the mood for bustin' dumpin' accross the Missou
I am motivated and ready to shoot and cause destruction across the Mississippi River.

And get to huntin' for Kevin East the oo-oo
We are determined to search for and confront an individual named Kevin East who has crossed us.

And nigga you knew the Rogue Dawgs rule!
You were aware of the authority and dominance of the Rogue Dawgs crew.

Your so called truths get battered and bruised
The supposed truths you hold dear will be debunked and discredited.

Stackin' you fools so deadly it don't matter the tools
We overpower and defeat our adversaries with ease, using any means necessary.

I'm afta my dues prove if you snooze you looze
I am determined to claim what is rightfully mine and show that those who are lazy or unaware will miss out.

Prepare for war when you fuckin' wit my crew
If you dare to challenge or provoke my crew, be prepared for a full-blown conflict.

Rogue for life!
We are committed to the Rogue Dawg crew until the day we die.

265 lbs. all nigga
I am a strong and formidable individual weighing 265 pounds.

And I'm good wit these dawgs nigga
I am skilled and experienced in working with my loyal companions.

Got steel plated balls nigga
I am not afraid and have immense courage, symbolized by my metaphorical steel balls.

Representin' 57th street
I proudly represent and embody the spirit of 57th Street.

Me and my Dawgs bringin' the heat
My loyal companions and I are bringing intense energy and force.

Born and raised to be a villain on these Kansas City streets
I have grown up in Kansas City with the intention of becoming a feared and respected figure in the criminal underworld.

Best retreat when you hear my dogs barkin
It's wise to run away when you hear the aggressive warnings from my loyal companions.

Snarlin' got that blood boilin'
The snarling and aggressive behavior from my dogs intensifies the anger and aggression within me.

Midwest side carved in hangin' out the chevy now we blastin' and laughin'
We proudly represent the Midwest side of the city and are unafraid to show it, causing chaos and finding enjoyment in violence.

Made to hit me smashin' on them bastards
I was destined to aggressively attack and defeat my enemies.

Don't be talkin' when they ask you shit got drastic on that bastard
If the authorities question you, don't say anything, as my actions towards that person were severe and extreme.

Left him fo the cats that sent them straight to hell
I left that person to face the consequences of their actions, which will lead them to a life of suffering in hell.

Just like hosts of veil another soldier's tale
Similar to stories of fallen soldiers, this is another account of a brave warrior who met a tragic end.

Nigga the life of a coward was taken when we bailed
By vanishing or escaping from a dangerous situation, we effectively ended the life of a cowardly individual.

Look I swore to die for bloodline more heartless than my father brought (nigga)
I made an oath to sacrifice my life for the sake of my family's honor, even more vicious and relentless than my father's legacy.

Load the cartridges with hollow point hard ones
We load our bullets with hollow point ammunition designed to cause severe damage and destruction.

When Rogue dawgs call it's an all out war move
When the members of the Rogue Dawgs crew demand action, it becomes a full-fledged war with no limitations.

56 marks it 'cause 56 swore to
56th Street leaves its mark because our crew has sworn to make an impact and be remembered.

Heartless insaine ghetto hoodlum livin and never dyin'
We embrace and endure the harsh realities of living in the crime-ridden ghetto while refusing to be defeated by death.

Midwest side until my last breath on highland
I will represent the Midwest side of the city until the moment of my death in the Highland neighborhood.

Why should I lie? I live an die for my side
There is no reason for me to deceive or hide the fact that I am willing to live and die in service to my neighborhood.

Ride the city 'til they roll with diddy one last time
I will navigate through the city streets until everyone acknowledges and joins our movement, even if it's for a final time.

Let this N9ne yell out fuckem
I, Tech N9ne, will use my platform to express my dismissal and disdain for those who oppose us.

Fuck 'em if he's gon walk he's nothin'
If someone is too afraid to take action, they are insignificant and unworthy of our attention.

Fuck where he's from he'll even run when I'm comin'
It doesn't matter where they are from; even if they try to escape, they will flee in fear when they see me approaching.

Rogue dawg fo life no fear of death no mo
I am a loyal member of the Rogue Dawg crew, and I am no longer afraid of death.

I swore to live a life a soldier at war
I made a promise to dedicate my life to the relentless battle and hardships of a warrior.

Are you afraid of the unknown brains get blown
Are you fearful of what you don't understand? Prepare to have your mind shattered and destroyed.

Expose chrome to your dome 'til you stiff as stone
I will expose the metal of my firearm directly to your head until you become lifeless and immovable like a statue.

With the phone neva suck it I'm goin'
I will never be a submissive or weak individual; I'm always ready to take action.

In the pockets and blowin muthafuckas to smitherines
I have explosives in my possession and will use them to completely obliterate my enemies.

You knowin' that it ain't no niggaz stickin' me like K-do
Don't even think about attempting to rob or deceive me; you won't succeed like others who have tried and failed.

Be warned I'm able to explode like a volcano
Take caution, as I have the capability to erupt with intense and destructive force, just like a volcano.

On y'all we told y'all we Rogue Dawgs
We have repeatedly warned you that we are the Rogue Dawgs crew, and we don't back down.

Fo' you bustas and hatas we (gotta make that paper)
We, as a crew, are determined to take advantage of opportunities and make money in order to thwart and defeat our enemies.

Can't break us then take us I'll peel you like a potato
You cannot destroy our resilience or capture us; if you try, I will violently and effortlessly remove you from our path.

Nigga wait a minute got me bustin' like a lieutenant
Wait a moment, I am excited and eager to shoot, just like a determined lieutenant in the military.

My intent is to eliminate you cynics
I am focused on eradicating and completely removing cynical and negative individuals from my surroundings.

Rogue Fo' Life!!
We are committed to the Rogue Dawg crew for life, without question.

These young niggaz always yellin' about ridin'
These young individuals are constantly boasting and bragging about their involvement in criminal activities.

But these bustas ain't no muthafuckin' ridas
However, these individuals are not truly loyal or dedicated participants in the criminal lifestyle.

I pumpst a cock up in they bitch and then I'm slidin'
I have sexual encounters with their significant others and then swiftly exit their lives.

These wannabe hustlas can't compare to midwest sidas
These individuals trying to imitate a hustler's lifestyle don't stand a chance against the authentic hustlers from the Midwest.

I'm rollin' deep wit my troopas fixin'ta expose the chrome
I'm accompanied by my loyal crew, prepared to reveal and utilize our firearms.

Detrimental to domes though ozone
Our actions and weapons cause severe damage to people's heads, surpassing the limits of their protection.

Thousands of bodies bein' found around me
There are countless corpses discovered in close proximity to me, symbolizing the destruction I cause.

Bottles of bud and double-U-double E-D
I indulge in alcohol and the drug ecstasy, enhancing my aggressive and energetic behavior.

N9ne milla rhyme killa
I am Tech N9ne, a skilled performer and lyricist, capable of overpowering others in the realm of rap.

Fuck wit me I'll take that bust of myron D
If you provoke or challenge me, I will forcefully take away your weapon and rob you of your possessions.

And throw 'em to mah Dawgs in the red sea
I will give the stolen weapons to my loyal crew members, who are as eager to engage in violence as sharks in the red sea.

Now lets see if he can swim back to shore
Now, the one from whom I stole the weapon must find a way to survive and return to safety.

Chunks missin' yellin' I don't wanna mess wit tech no more
With parts of their bodies missing, they scream that they want nothing to do with me, Tech N9ne, ever again.

I know you don't Tech N9ne I never say it again nigga
I know you don't speak my name, Tech N9ne, and I won't repeat it for you.

I know you won't never will these niggaz lit on my friend
I know you will never have the courage or ability to defeat my friends or allies in battle.

And mista scare crow bitch nigga you ain't got to lie
And you, Mr. Scarecrow, weak individual, don't need to deceive anyone with your lies.

You just a scared ho Nigga this is highland 'til we die
You are simply a frightened person; however, we will remain loyal and proud to Highlands until our last breath.

We got the triple life coast to roll wit Rogue Dawg shit
We embody a lifestyle that involves crime, drugs, and hip-hop music, all while representing the Rogue Dawg crew.

Bitches and niggaz all on the balls when it hit
When our music and presence make an impact, both men and women gravitate towards us.

I neva could understand how a nigga could come so whack
I will never comprehend how someone can be so terrible and disappointing in their endeavors.

What? Oh I ain't talkin about me I'm talkin' about them other cats
What? Oh, I'm not referring to myself; I'm talking about those other individuals who lack skill and talent.

Troopa!
A shout-out to my fellow troops and soldiers in the battle.

My nigga my nigga we soldiers at war
My brothers, we are warriors engaged in a battle for survival.

Killin' off our enemies 'til it ain't no more!
We will eliminate our rivals until they no longer pose a threat.
