South Bronx 2002 |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my people at? |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my heart is at? |
South South, Bronx |
C’mon let’s bring it back |
South South, Bronx |
Raw rhymes for raw times |
My albums are underground, but this blessing is all mine |
And when it’s tour time, we open more minds |
You need to rethink who you think is the «Greatest of All Time» |
I got this -- I'm raw like Freddie Foxxx is Hardcore like The LOX is, Scott LaRock is where Tupac is Where hip-hop is, Digital-ly Underground like Shock is Oh yes -- I know where the top is But I |
'd rather rhyme about how crooked some of these cops is My synopsis ain't pretty |
I’d stay, off them plains and, out the city if I were you |
Do what you gotta do But while you wave them flags, remember Amadou Diallo |
Here’s what we gotta do, follow |
I’ll put hip-hop in you if you’re hollow |
Those that already filled, still take swallows |
Goin over potholes with Tahoes |
You don’t think +I+ know? |
Huh! |
I’m lookin at you right now |
You ain’t dancin in the club, you in your car, sittin down |
You in the crib, on the low |
You got them headsets on the go You just saw me at the show oh you don’t know? |
It’s the Temple of Hip-Hop, comin, with a whole different flow |
Yo where them hoes at? |
I don’t know |
But wherever God at, I’ma go I give 'em a hard rap and a flow |
That’s why when they call back for the show, with no video |
We get up and go Yo where it started at? |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my people at? |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my heart is at? |
South South, Bronx |
C’mon let’s bring it back |
South South, Bronx |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my people at? |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my heart is at? |
South South, Bronx |
C’mon let’s bring it back |
South South, Bronx |
Peep it out while I tell ya like this |
In every single hood in the world I’m called Kris |
It’s the, truth for ya, it’s the proof for ya My Cristal passes more bars than lawyers |
The underground sound, this is not easily found |
You don’t need no rings to be down |
This is, past the platinum and gold |
We already had 'em, it’s old |
Here’s the truth if it be told, gather 'round |
Philosopher style is known to be wild |
If you only holdin them guns, who’s holdin your child? |
You got to be thinkin you know that you shrinkin |
When the art of Navigation has been reduced to a Lincoln |
Change the dial! |
I was free then and I’m free now |
You free, runnin to MTV? |
I don’t see how |
You know the real from the fake, you know they stealin they cake |
You know it ain’t about the art, it’s all about what they make |
You know the radio’s late, you know they play what you hate |
That’s why you got that Kay Slay tape, tryin to escape |
You know the love of the cars and the rims |
Tattooed arms and Timbs, are also called sins |
You know you got to pay for these spins |
You know the rap magazines be wack from beginning to the end |
BO South South, Bronx |
Yo where my people at? |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my heart is at? |
South South, Bronx |
C’mon let’s bring it back |
South South, Bronx |
I never was a king and I’m not the Pres |
I’m a teacher like that reefer goin straight to your head |
I’m a preacher tryin to bring my people back from the dead |
I’m a leader tryin to keep you all away from the feds |
You my sister I’ll be tryin to get you out of the bed |
I’m a philospher sayin what has got to be said |
I don’t fill you with lead, I bring that knowledge instead |
Follow this dread, I’ll take you from A to Zed |
Who am I? |
Just a scholar called K-R-S |
You can spend your money on others but they ain’t blessed |
You can spend your money drugs and still be stressed |
Look around for conscious rappes yo there ain’t none left |
I’m holdin it downbetter yet I’m holdin up Waitin for some young buck to come and sip from the cup |
And continue with the menu puttin new knowledge in you |
I got a question and a lesson cause I know what you been through |
But |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my people at? |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where it started at? |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my people at? |
South South, Bronx |
Yo where my heart is at? |
South South, Bronx |
C’mon let’s bring it back |
South South, Bronx |
The South South Bronx, boyeee |
