Word up! It's just a little somethin to tide you over, word up |
| [00:11.243] |
The "KRStyle" album comin soon, KRS-One all in the room |
| [00:16.427] |
We gonna bounce these cats this year, word up |
| [00:18.544] |
Why they do this? Ha - yo, yo |
| [00:19.199] |
|
| [00:19.671][KRS-One] |
|
| [00:22.350] |
I climb up the back of rappers |
| [00:24.318] |
Reach over they head, and rap backwards at 'em |
| [00:26.895] |
Excuse me madam, I used to throw these uzis at 'em |
| [00:29.345] |
But I'm a teacher, skills I truly have 'em |
| [00:32.009] |
These clubs I duly pack 'em |
| [00:34.496] |
Potential lawyers engineers and doctors, I do attract 'em |
| [00:37.614] |
Go to your professors and ask 'em |
| [00:39.761] |
If the songs of the "Edutainment" in college they didn't blast 'em |
| [00:43.346] |
Yes - I'm that ancient one |
| [00:46.462] |
I set the framework for today's rappers to make they funds |
| [00:49.478] |
But no you don't know me son |
| [00:50.998] |
My facial features matches the Sphinx with it's nose redone |
| [00:54.471] |
You know how many clubs we done rocked? |
| [00:57.166] |
You know how many guns we done popped? |
| [00:58.271] |
You know how many funds we done dropped? |
| [01:00.376] |
You know how many ones we done got? |
| [01:02.150] |
We been gettin live since the days of Chubb Rock |
| [01:04.297] |
We know how to survive; these other cats |
| [01:07.694] |
Be in at nine o'clock then be out at five, uhh |
| [01:10.034] |
We doin the overtime, on stage I over-rhyme |
| [01:12.403] |
Makin these whack rappers tow the line |
| [01:15.638] |
Steppin to me, I know you blind; cause your whole flow |
| [01:18.270] |
Your show, your style, you know it's all mine! |
| [01:20.272] |
The first time you learned to spit |
| [01:22.739] |
It was either me, Kane, Rakim or Slick Rick! |
| [01:23.862] |

| [01:29.062] |
Welcome to the "KRStyle" |
| [01:31.042] |
This year I had to switch styles and bust off two miss-iles |
| [01:34.053] |
And that's not all, rappers have the gall |
| [01:36.361] |
To pray and pray for my downfall - but still in all |
| [01:40.056] |
I have X amount of lyrics to get 'em all |
| [01:42.223] |
Live at the club I spit 'em all |
| [01:44.308] |
Rappers backstage lookin sad and piti-fal |
| [01:47.136] |
Cause they know I'm the pinna-cle and they mini-mal |
| [01:49.612] |
I spit the metaphysical, the spiritual |
| [01:52.313] |
The oracle, the lyrical, the oratorical |
| [01:54.673] |
Rookie! I'll mop the floor witcho' |
| [01:57.224] |
I'm the lyrical foundation to all your flows |
| [01:59.774] |
All your clothes, all your shows and I'm not alone |
| [02:02.657] |
You wouldn't even know how to hold the mic or the phone |
| [02:05.229] |
You couldn't even bite on the bone |
| [02:08.002] |
While we was rockin mics out in Rome |
| [02:09.225] |
Now you hyped cause you grown? |
| [02:10.525] |
You know we internationally known, the people love it |
| [02:12.906] |
But what they learnin bout is on the whole, look above it |
| [02:16.117] |
But let us get back to what we call hip-hop |
| [02:19.496] |
Before you whack rappers went pop |
| [02:20.241] |
