[krs-one] + [somebody beatboxing] |
|
Let me tell you bout a crew i know [ba bum bum] |
|
Called boogie down productions and they steal the show [ba bum bum] |
|
With dj scott larock and krs-one |
|
[ba-bum, ba-ba-bum, ba-bum-ba-bum-bababababababababa] |
|
With d-nice you know the job is done |
|
And i know [boom-ba-bum] oh yes i know [ba-boom-ba-bum] |
|
I know because i'm krs-one, yo check this out |
|
[beatbox continues in the background] |
|
[krs-one] |
|
Breath control.. here's an example |
|
I appeal, to the +criminal minded+ |
|
You can't find it, boy you're still blinded |
|
Why don't you open your eyes and stop dissin |
|
Get a prescription to listen |
|
Sit in the class and ask real fast about a fresh rap |
|
You're gettin left back, set back, kept back |
|
Get back, i don't accept that material |
|
Your rhymes are artificially flavored like cereal |
|
I like clarity, so when you come here |
|
Speak clear and concise and then i might give |
|
A little slack to.. nah, wait - i take that back |
|
If you're wack, i'll slap, fuck that! |
|
Boogie down productions back, simply cause we never left |
|
The radical sounds of krs |
|
What a mess, to roll up and then 'fess |
|
Wild guess huh, you thought you were the best? |
|
But - yup yup - as it always turns out |
|
You get burned out, your rhymes just run out |
|
I immediately come out, boomin dope and |
|
Don't provoke, you're walkin a very thin rope |
|
Not even rope, the word i'm lookin for is string |
|
When i sing, i sing to try and bring |
|
Enlightenment, yet the suckers be bitin it |
|
Radio's fightin it, the fans be likin it |
|
Your face i'm wipin it, cause your mouth is dirty |
|
You're unworthy to think that you can serve me |
|
You heard me? these styles are universal |
|
You need rehearsal, wait, first i'll |
|
Beef up the system, rhyth, rhymin, timin, climbin |
|
Then realizing |
|
As producer of this dope record huh |
|
I think it's time we break for a second |
|
Breath control.. |
|
[krs-one] |
|
That's it, that's it, that's it |
|
Break is over, back to the track |
|
Resume attack, on the crews that are wack |
|
We don't lack, i mean, we don't like |
|
The played out styles when we're rockin the mic |
|
The radical rebel at level fifteen |
|
The amp only goes to ten, you know what i mean? |
|
As it seems, it seems that you're doomed |
|
Yes i'll boom and consume the whole room |
|
Not a part, not a fraction or a sum |
|
But all, capital krs-one |
|
B-d-b-d-b-d-b-d-p |
|
Takin mc's out constantly! |
|
Because you're no big deal, you're no big wheel |
|
You steal, come before me and kneel but |
|
I'm not a king, i'm not a queen, i'm not a ace |
|
I'm not a jack, i'm not a mc or a playboy |
|
And i just ain't wack |
|
I feel that you should get an understanding |
|
You might be jamming, but krs-one is slamming |
|
Hypothetically, or in reality |
|
Takin you out, is a small technicality |
|
Rhymes like these, or rhymes like this one |
|
Comes in handy, while i diss some |
|
Soft silly low budget sucker like yourself |
|
I got the style you need, in my house on the shelf |
|
Labelled, sucker boy style |
|
I like to do it every once in a while.. |
