Песня: Business Or Art
[Intro:]
Business.
Art.
All he had to do was just enjoy the ride.
Get on my level!
Business.
A Gang Starr with a gangster, on a mission.
We come and infiltrate your whole cypher, man.
Art.

[Chorus: Guru]
Business or art? Fist or steel?
Industry or street? Fake or real?
Cold or hot? Truth or trash?
War or peace? Longevity or cash?

[Verse 1: Guru]
Here's one for Spin, Billboard, and Rolling Stone,
Hip hop is so organic, it'll grow on its own,
We watch 'em throw money at it with clout and power
But after a while, things faded out and went sour.
Somebody lost their shirt, execs got fired,
Some artist went berserk, took mad drugs and got wired,
Hundreds of thousands, up to millions in promo,
All wasted on garbage, now that was a no-no.
Oh no, what's gonna happen now to these fools?
These self-centered pricks were showered, proud of 'em too,
Never that, 'cause I am the renegade realist,
Street visionary, the end of day's idealist.
People often ask what's the key to longevity,
How I'm so consistent and bring the heat incredibly?
Intelligence is vital and always stay hood,
'Cause this is our culture, and we need to make good.

[Chorus: Guru]
Business or art? Fist or steel?
Industry or street? Fake or real?
Cold or hot? Truth or trash?
War or peace? Longevity or cash?

[Verse 2: Talib Kweli]
Business or art? Let's pick it apart,
If you ain't spittin' out your heart, you'd be considered a mark.
The bullshit gotta stop, 'cause when it's business o'clock,
You hear the tickin' and the tockin' on the digital watch.
Yeah, time is money, and they don't find it funny,
They'll show up where you live, make your environment bloody, buddy,
They'll kick in the door, tell you, "Get on the floor!"
They bust a 9 and bust some rhymes, you like, "Gimme some more!"
Askin' you where your heart is, but you an artist,
You was never as hard as you said you was,
Maybe lyin' wasn't the smartest decision you ever made
'Cause this business ain't regulated,
If you beefin' over beats, in these streets you'll never make it.
Now you singin' to cops, that's your favorite tune, nigga,
They ain't got Yelp reviews for goons, nigga,
Hip hop, homie, that's our lane,
It's Gang Starr with the Black Star gang,
We bang-bang when it's business or art.

[Chorus: Guru]
Business or art? Fist or steel?
Industry or street? Fake or real?
Cold or hot? Truth or trash?
War or peace? Longevity or cash?

[Outro:]
All he had to do was just enjoy the ride.
Get on my level!
Business.
A Gang Starr with a gangster, on a mission.
We come and infiltrate your whole cypher, man.
Art.

Перевод песни:
Бизнес или искусство

[Вступление:]
Бизнес.
Искусство.
Ему нужно было просто наслаждаться поездкой.
Поднимись до моего уровня!
Бизнес.
"Гэнг Старр" вместе с гангстером, и у них есть цель.
Мы внедримся в твой круг, чувак...... [открыть перевод]
