More wordplay from DZA. The 1st half of this bar is DZA telling his enemies to stay silent, n the 2nd half he says he’s got a gun to silence them with if need be. The wordplay is that “Silencer, conceal the noise” is a double entendre; it can be taken as he has a silencer for his gun to conceal the noise of his shots, and also that his gun is the “silencer” “concealing” the “noise” of his enemies.

Perfect example of the Jet Life philosophy. One of DZA’s fellow Jets, Curren$y, has also used The Rapture as a metaphor, though with a different reference, in his song “Address”: http://rapgenius.com/40467

DZA is out for blood. A possible double explanation: 1) He’s wearing the glove because he’s going to murder something like OJ or 2) He’s “OJ with the glove on” because he’s going to murder something and still get away with it. “If it doesn’t fit, you must acquit.”
