take it to god
Singer: krs-one
yeah
once again
word up urban inspirational
krs-one
professor ecks
whattup dan? woo
temple of hip-hop
let's do it
by the sound of the track
you know who is back
it's the teacher
philosopher of conscious rap
rappers tired of me sayin where hip-hop is at
cause they know they unoriginal
copycats
watch me bump this gospel rap
never wack
in fact
i tell you where the tracks is at
tv is wack
they wanna show us beatin iraq
when the question is
is where is chandra levy at?
murdered god and left for dead like hip-hop
and admit to condit like conduct
to kill ecks the dread
and kris crucified the false prophet
john f. kennedy to these mc's
i draw and cock it
cock on cocky cops for the love of the art
punish the part
partition
pardon the pause
poison pens penetrate the mental
i walk with kris so my body's a temple
body instrumentals and body your squad in the body of a god
just think
just think
what if malcolm x returned
or dr. king returned
tell me what have we learned?
as we takin our turn
tell me what have we earned
or is the ice and the cars our only concern
mo' money
mo' money
you be yellin it out
and on tv can't you see you be sellin us out
so in 2010
look to 2002
who you think they gonna respect
me or you?
behold
the god
in the form of the man
walkin off water and flesh absorbs in the sand
moor gets the land
divorcin the clan
i'm off into sand
off and i'm slayin delicate arms from porcelain hands
slaughtered the lambs
charge it to the game
cats take hip-hop's name in vain
disrespectin the forefathers who came
goddess hurt 'em right now
like when marvin was slain
they don't want it
nope
they don't need it
nope
just stay weeded and hope
i don't read what you wrote
best believe they ain't dope
they deceivin these folks
with they meaningless quotes
i got my feet on they throat
what they speak is a joke
they really weak and they broke
have a seat and take notes
on the streets i'm the pope
mtv is they hope
they repeat what they wrote
i'm an mc that won't
let them tempt me with coke
nope
flesh of my flesh
blessed by krs
used to love her
they haven't made a date with death
follow no man
enslave the ecks
professin the student
i vibe with the teacher obliged to drop liver than heaters
lyrics liable to eat us like the survivors of jesus
now the
blind is the leaders
your styles is egregious
gets now the brow beateth to underground emceeth
the game is overheated
overweeded
and misunderstood
word
just a ride in they boat
with a platinum rope
no doubt
they sellin us out
what's happenin loc?
quit this rappin i won't
cause mc'n is dope
if i can't do it for the love then do it i won't
how many times we note when these rappers is dope
satisfied
that's why i'm renewin your hope
broaden your scope
when cleaned out your mind
my rhyme is like a new bar of deoderant soap
in this land of men mice and mimes
i holds right for the laws
live life like christ
makin bread from mics and applause
the snakes fight with tyson like jaws for what's rightfully yours
i might 'em all
tell me - is it life or it's war?
goooyyyyiiyyyiyyyyod
