C.I.A. (Criminals In Action) |
Yea yea yea yea yea! |
KRS-One comin through, Big Zack, Last Emperor |
WOOP WOOP! |
Ha hah, that’s the sound of EMS |
Ha hah, Last Emperor, KRS |
Ha hah, Big Zack you know the rest |
Now we gonna come down like this now, hold tight all crew |
LISTEN! |
This voice shatters the calm of the day, like an alarm |
To wake up badder youth, and take up arms |
Cause more is necessary than vocabulary war |
Cause the toxic rock imports, gettin on your door |
C.I.A. |
I see ya later, cause your time is comin soon |
I flip the shit like, Pacino and it’s your Dog Day Afternoon |
Attica Attica, drug agents your bring your static-a |
My alphabet will slash that neck and flip you, automatica |
Dramatic, like Ali Shaheed Muhammed brought the vibe |
I bring the sun at Red Dawn to pull the thoughts of Franz Fanon |
So stand at attention, devil dirge |
You never survive choosin sides against the wretched of the earth |
The infiltrator, tribe intoxicator, people incarcerator |
Liberation movement annihilator |
We got you clocked pushin rocks and it fail |
We got brothers troopin subways like the Ho Chi Manh trail |
We got the truth data, Last Emperor, KRS and |
history manifested, tomorrow next lesson |
YOU CLAIM I’M SELLIN CRACK, BUT YOU BE DOIN THAT |
«You, claim, you claim, you, you claim, claim |
You, claim I’m sellin crack, but you be doin that" — |
You know the cops they got a network for the toxic rock |
YOU CLAIM I’M SELLIN CRACK, BUT YOU BE DOIN THAT |
«So get that flashlight out of my face" — |
«You, you, you claim I’m sellin crack, but you be doin that" — |
The Last Emperor, KRS-One, and Big Zack |
As free market capitalism and technology expands |
The third world’s fertile soil becomes a desert wasteland |
So it takes bands to, demand the, government provide answers |
when Lady Liberty has me Bewitched like Samantha |
And poverty is one of the most malignant forms of cancer |
to all my Black Magic romancers and acid rain dancers |
Develop close ties like Jerry Seinfeld and George Costanza |
We fear no man and throw jams that attack counterintelligence programs |
Exciting like the epic adventures of Conan (hah!) |
I colonize minds like Zaire by the Belgians |
Now what the hell is the problem with this system and what it sells us |
I bring ancient relics like Wyclef did to Zealots |
I saw an Iron Curtain called hip-hop and got it open like Boris Yeltsin |
Whirlwind, tornadoes, in the rain forest if you say so (whosssshhh) |
KRS and The Last Emperor like the Green Hornet and Kato |
Zach de la Rocha brings the enraged flow, but all three drop science |
and become the most powerful alliance since NATO |
YOU CLAIM I’M SELLIN CRACK, BUT YOU BE DOIN THAT |
«You, claim I’m sellin crack, but you be doin that" — |
YOU CLAIM I’M SELLIN CRACK, BUT YOU BE DOIN THAT |
You know the cops they got a network for the toxic rock |
YOU CLAIM I’M SELLIN CRACK, BUT YOU BE DOIN THAT |
«So get that flashlight out of my face" — |
YOU CLAIM I’M SELLIN CRACK, BUT YOU BE DOIN THAT |
The Last Emperor, KRS-One, and Big Zack |
Need I say the C.I.A. |
be Criminals In Action |
Cocaine crack unpackin, high surveillance trackin |
Prominant blacks and whites givin orders for mass slaughters |
I want all my daughters to be like Maxine Waters |
When they flooded the streets with crack cocaine |
I was like Noah, now they lower cause the whole cold war is over |
Communism fell to the dollars you were grabbin it |
All the assault and batterin in the name of intelligence gatherin? |
Now it’s karma you battlin, a losin fight |
I chose the mic to recite ignite light in the night, aight? |
We should beat em, President Clinton should delete em |
it’s not hard, the C.I.A. |
simply has no more job |
Oh my Goddess, mother, you can fix this |
We rock over mixes not six six sixes |
Yo this is, the message, to all that can hear it |
If you got secret information now’s the time to share it |
Call your Congresswoman, your senator, your mayor |
It’s time for all the scholars to unite with all the players |
Rearrangin, see times are definitely changin G |
They used to tap the phone, now they tappin while you pagin me |
It’s crazy B, yet it’s plain to see, who the enemy |
Who’s left the NRA? |
The ATF, the AMA? |
Okay okay, it’s all irrelevant, cause in the new millenium |
there’ll be no Central Intelligence |
Uh, yea, uh, yea |
Throw your hands up |
You know whassup kid, throw your hands up |
Ha hah yeah, hah hah, yeah |
