[KRS One] You better ask yourself What do you want what do you need what will you find Don't be afraid don't fall asleep open your mind I hope this rhyme gets you in time and space come to a different place Where you hear spiritual lyrical knowledge and you're face to face like welfare, and these rappers lyrics they need help there Does KRS represent heaven? Hell yea Let me take you elsewhere, where you stand, there's a curse there for sure, unless you're mature, grow up If you're immature, then you're livin sinister You reject the words of the minister You better get witcha Qu'Ran or bible, you won't be livin long if you're livin idol, the t'cha, that's my title Shakin it up, wakin it up, makin it up, breakin it up Takin it up higher, no liar, you can't deny the Public Enemy, with the public enema I gets way up in your buttocks, I rocks cause it's hip-hop The long-laster, Chuck D with BlastMurderer I know you heard of the word I be swervin and servin ya Alertin ya, while splurtin a divine speech Slow the party down so I can spit it To each I teach mystic lyric, don't stop, you can get it You better hear it.. battle? Quit it!
[Chuck D] Can the black hear his stepchild, run the mile Forever like a juvenile, to stay alive Survivin in the freestyle, yo hold it down Walkin on the wild side, to live or die Damn another slow song Yo Money put the recrod back the FUCK on No respect for the Usual Suspects, mad teens pourin fire on the gasoline, defeat fiends Feelin like fever, I'm gettin warm Chalk marks in the rainstorm, children of the gone lost and forgotten, minds rotten The arcade shot em, Channel Zero on the TV got em If you don't love yourself you can't love nobody If you don't know yourself, then you nobody Do your thing, no bang, in the same damn gang I never sang, I'm back, but I transmit slang Silence in the face of violent crews My rhymes and news be blacker than most blues Troublein, it all come tumblein, for the strugglin occupations, daily operations stimulations causin mental violations, minds on vacation In the middle of Revelation is a nation
