Shikamaru's Strategy

Asuma is dead
Idiot
Will you shut your mouth
All this talking is making me sick
Say what you want, I'm still nothing but a useless coward
You're wrong
What do you want from me
All of the anger, the sadness and the fear
Everything that's brewing inside of you
You've got to let it go

Aw man, what a drag
Tryin' to make me work, but can I relax?
Savin' effort, they demand, but I'll pass
That's just the surface, dare you to scratch
You ain't even worth it, I'll hand you the match
You can think I'm lazy, I ran all the math
Underestimate me? Damn you for that
While I got to carry Nara Clan on my back?
I put 'em on the map, but the gang never slack
Ino-Shika-Cho, yeah, we land our attack
Ino take control of your brain while she naps
Choji on a roll, expand, then he smash
Ninjas too slow when I plan every act
Shadow on the low, now you stand on a trap
Temari knows she a big fan of my rap
Life is like shogi, I scan every path

If you want to make this troublesome
Look at all the shade I throw
Thinking you ahead of my game, but look
See my checkmate on the board
Believing you the brightest ninja here
You livin' in my shadow though
Shadow Possession Jutsu
Successful

I'ma make Asuma-sensei the proudest
Now it's time to grow up about it
All I did was scream and cry and just shouted
While he got killed, it's like I allowed it
I fought rounds with Sound ninja
So don't doubt my wisdom 'cause I'm out to get ya
Let me calculate every route considered
Yeah, you found the bait 'cause I count on winnin'
Hit you with the shadow paralysis
Then I'm makin' you bow your head with the mimic you shrouded in
Yeah, you think that you bound to get me
My shadow clone's counterfeit
'Till my chakra is my down again
Man, I wish I was a cloud in the air and without any care
Brainpower severe, ninja clash over here
When they have to be near, then my shadow appears
Now they cower in fear 'cause my strategy's clear

If you want to make this troublesome
Look at all the shade I throw
Thinking you ahead of my game, but look
See my checkmate on the board
Believing you the brightest ninja here
You livin' in my shadow, though
Shadow Possession Jutsu
Successful

It won't be long
I got these bombs for Hidan and gathered the recon
My team strong, Akatasuki the weak sauce
When it comes to pre-thought
Fool me? I think not
Put my hands together, think of what I'm doin' next
Ninja Art: Shadow Strangle, now you losin' breath
When it comes to art of war, tell me who's the best
You are just a pawn and I move it like chess
I don't know a Jake, but I'm reppin' Team 10
Fought my sensei reanimated
Do it for the sake of his and Kurenai's kid
Yeah, I feel the flame of his lighter in the flick
Any trap laid, I'll find a way to escape
'Cause life is a game, and my mind's gonna play
So you might make a mistake, recognizing my name
Shikamaru, advising Hokage

If you want to make this troublesome
Look at all the shade I throw
Thinking you ahead of my game, but look
See my checkmate on the board
Believing you the brightest ninja here
You livin' in my shadow though
Shadow Possession Jutsu
Successful
If you want to make this troublesome
Look at all the shade I throw
Thinking you ahead of my game, but look
See my checkmate on the board
Believing you the brightest ninja here
You livin' in my shadow though
Shadow Possession Jutsu
Successful

You know what you're doing?
Look, you play your way and I'll play my-
No son, I'm not talking about shogi
