what it is
Wu‐Tang Clan feat. RZA Streetlife Buddah Bless Lyrics

Shaolin shadowboxing, in the Wu-tang sword style
We are warriors from Shaolin, practicing the ancient art of shadowboxing in the deadly Wu-Tang sword style.

If what you say is true, if what you say is true
We demand honesty and integrity. If you speak truth, we will listen to you with respect.

The clouds was gray, the sky was black
The weather was bleak and ominous, suggesting impending danger.

Two undercover pigs jumped out the Pontiac
Two police officers in plain clothes emerge suddenly from their car, hoping to catch us in a compromising situation.

Trying to extort us, they wanna know where the money at
The officers are threatening us, attempting to blackmail us for money, and demanding to know our location.

We countin' the cream, my team get money stacks
We are focused on our business pursuits and count the money we have accumulated from our efforts.

Let the gods build wherever we at
We believe in a higher power and let them guide us in our actions no matter where we are.

We attackin' the mind state
Our strategy is to change people's thinking and beliefs, not to commit crimes.

We civilized niggas we don't think of the crime rate
Despite our background, as members of Wu-Tang, we are educated and civilized individuals who do not resort to criminal activity.

The mind's infinite now, we can't waste time
We view our minds as infinite resources and know we must spend our time wisely to achieve our goals.

Take the ones that know the last, leave the rest behind
We seek knowledge from those who have experience and leave behind those who don't.

Salute, fall back in line
We give respect to those in charge and follow orders.
