[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
