Killa Sin - "Soldiers Of Darkness"



Ahh, Killa Sin. Arguably the most lyrical member of Killarmy, a Wu-Tang-affiliated collective that released two fairly-classic LPs (Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars and Dirty Weaponry), and a third, not-quite-as-good-but-still-reasonably-dope-by-today's-standards long-player (Fear, Love & War) before dissolving into essentially six men putting out mixtapes and cameo verses. I'm pretty sure Sin is in jail right now, which is quite unfortunate when you think about the state of hip-hop today. Anyways, here's his classic opening verse from basically my favorite song of all time; Sunz Of Man's "Soldiers Of Darkness," which also featured Killarmy co-foreman 9th Prince, younger brother of one Robert Diggs, Jr. (that's RZA, to you).

Killa Sin - "Soldiers Of Darkness" (verse) by BlazeStar_VOD

Yo, yo
I gotta get a grip!
An edge on life, I'm livin trife, G
I'm sheisty, now why I see why nobody likes me
It might be the image projected I selected
But 'F' it; shit is mad real, as well as hectic
Inspect it, your vest and got tested
Suggestions molested my thoughts
I manifest it, but check it!
My mind was designed for crimes, the bottom line
Cuz it's my time to shine wit the nickel-plated 9
To a spine, and there's no remorse in my source of madness
With my temper, my anger rises like my status
Because I'm known on the borough of Shaolin, for wildin'
Don't think that it's peace when I be smilin'
A heart stone cold is what I own
For niggas who brag, I break bones
Leave 'em ungagged and hear them moan!
I hate snakes on that fake shit
I get mad, leave 'em shooken up bad like when the quake hit
I got a steez-o that's raw, man
Another brother provoked, the gun smoke
Now that's all, damn!
Why did he bother the father of horror
Knowin full well that he won't live to see tomorra?
Be on your guard when I start to flip shit, I'm sick
Word to God, it's hard to get a grip..
