[00:00.00]"Straight from Crooklyn, better known as Brooklyn"（采样自组合Black Moon的《Who Got da Props?》Buckshot歌词）
[00:02.68]"Never taking shorts 'cause Brooklyn's the borough" （采样自Gang Starr《The Place Where We Dwell 》）
[00:05.16]"Straight from Crooklyn, better known as Brooklyn"
[00:07.92]"Never taking shorts 'cause Brooklyn's the borough"
[00:10.44]"We did it like that and now we do it like this"
[00:12.96]"We did it like that and now we do it like this"（采样自Crooklyn Dodgers1994年的歌曲《Crooklyn》,那时人员有不同）
[00:19.90]Now clock kids, who got the cocaine?
[00:22.84]Don't tell me it's the little kids on Soul Train
[00:25.51]The metaphor sent from my brain to my jaw
[00:27.65]It comes from other places, not the tinted faces
[00:30.22]Journalistic values are yellow and then, of course, falters
[00:33.05]You'll watch Channel Zero with that ***** Barbara Walters
[00:35.82]She'll have you believe black invented crack
[00:39.58]When President Lyndon had the formula way back
[00:41.05]In '63 with Kennedy, yes, the double cross
[00:43.33]Remember that's when they blow his ****ing head off
[00:45.78]Vietnam vets come back looking like one-armed pets
[00:48.67]Nixon bounced pure checks
[00:50.97]No picket fence, no job, no 8-cylinder car
[00:53.84]Blue collar turns to bourgeois
[00:56.12]Depressed in your chest
[00:57.77]Demerol for sess, no dough, crack in vials much less
[01:01.16]Whitey can sell on the corners of Bushwick
[01:03.73]Whitey can sell on the corners of Flatbush
[01:06.13]Whiteys can sell on the corners of Bed-Stuy
[01:08.85]Pass the torch to that nigga guy
[01:10.92]So just die, nigga, die, nigga
[01:13.63]You're too black, you can't handle, you're too strong
[01:16.18]Get high, fly, clock. Next, boost your steel
[01:18.83]In '95, we take back Ebbets Field
[01:29.79]"Now let's take a sec to think back"（仍采样自《Crooklyn》）
[01:31.44]Brooklyn: Traveling distance to party
[01:34.30]Brooklyn: absent at functions? Not hardly
[01:36.95]Brooklyn: the name alone holds Godly
[01:39.52]You don't know? You better ask somebody
[01:42.46]Crack filled streets since '85.
[01:44.19]The Beast getting paid to not bust
[01:46.17]Hookers’ drawers got crust
[01:47.39]Claps clapping regular
[01:48.91]Hardcore niggas with Fat gold chains on the corner maintaining
[01:52.17]Gold teeth flashing, stickup kids playing in front of
[01:55.47]Latin Quarters—keep home your daughters
[01:57.43]‘Cause if bullets fly, watch the flaming
[01:59.46]Ignorant Ducks are shooting, wiling
[02:01.54]They're not aiming
[02:02.83]One Easter—now, to think about it, what a pity
[02:04.97]Five people died in front of Skate City
[02:07.42]Senseless, Back then you was ill if you had a gun
[02:10.17]People gash you and flash you, damn, no fun
[02:12.50]Albee Square, you couldn't shop too much ‘cause
[02:15.19]Fort Greene would hem you, wreck the **** on up.
[02:17.76]You had Do or Die, East New York, mad Hell
[02:20.15]Fellas cutting school, trooping to all go Maxwell
[02:22.70]So many memories I can't manifest
[02:25.34]Yo, ‘Ru, start where I finish and, to Brooklyn, God bless
[02:31.60]（Hook仍采样自《Crooklyn》）"Crazy ass Crooklyn kids"
[02:36.88]"Represent the Brooklyn all-nighter"
[02:38.78]"Crazy ass Crooklyn kids"
[02:41.22]"Because it is, survival of the fittest"
[02:43.90]"Crazy ass Crooklyn kids"
[02:47.07]"Represent the Brooklyn all-nighter"
[02:50.05]"Crazy ass Crooklyn kids"
[02:51.63]"Because it is, survival of the fittest"
[02:54.44]Listen ‘cause, for your mind, I got the right nutrition.
[02:56.81]We keep shit hard like fat asses and cases of Heineken
[02:59.00]Here in Brooklyn, home of the warrior and villain
[03:01.55]Trife type chicks, “Top Billin'”s the anthem
[03:03.68]Rastas smoke marijuana, enterprising businessmen shoot dice on the corner
[03:09.12]Excuse me while I light my spliff but some choose to sip
[03:12.04]So bullets hit brains when bottles hit lips
[03:14.41]Clips, whatever happened to .38 Special?
[03:16.83]Now it's Desert Eagles, government issue
[03:19.64]Probably the same one that killed Noriega.
[03:21.88]Chips that power nuclear bombs power my Sega
[03:24.84]Subliminal hypnotism and colonialism
[03:27.34]Leave most niggas dead or in prison
[03:29.76]In Crookland, right hand cuts off the left hand
[03:31.94]To spite the hand. Jealous of the next man
[03:34.15]So violent crimes black-on-black, plus mad crack to boot
[03:37.34]Everybody can't rap, so most hustle and shoot
[03:40.02]“Make money money, get money, take money.”
[03:42.54]I can't understand that concept ‘cause Jah rules everything around me
[03:45.85]Fire burns the unjust like arson, larceny
[03:47.99]Melt emcees with mental telepathy
[03:50.31]With precision, we're slicing and dicing.
[03:52.71]Peace to the East New York, Perverted Monks, and Mike Tyson
[03:56.24]"Crazy ass Crooklyn kids"
[03:58.75]"Represent the Brooklyn all-nighter"
[04:01.60]"Crazy ass Crooklyn kids"
[04:03.67]"Because it is, survival of the fittest"
[04:05.61]"Crazy ass Crooklyn kids"
[04:08.23]"Represent the Brooklyn all-nighter"
[04:11.63]"Crazy ass Crooklyn kids"
[04:13.99]"Because it is, survival of the fittest"
