Some type of entity\n[05:05.71] In everybody's rhyme\n[05:06.99] They wanna mention me?\n[05:08.46] Or rather mention us\n[05:09.41] Me or scot la rock\n[05:10.43] But they can get bust\n[05:11.82] Get robbed, get dropped\n[05:13.27] I don't play around\n[05:14.59] Nor do i f*** around\n[05:15.80] And you can tell by the bodies that are left around\n[05:18.29] When some clown jumps up to get

again\n[04:42.61] Many people had the nerve to think we would end the trend\n[04:45.03] We're criminal minded\n[04:46.67] And only tend\n[04:47.95] Funky, funky, funky, funky, funky hit records\n[04:49.93] No more than four minutes\n[04:51.72] And some seconds\n[04:52.68] The competition checks and checks\n[04:54.29] And keeps checkin'\n[04:55.21] They get the album\n[04:56.23] Take

Some type of entity\n[05:05.77] In everybody's rhyme\n[05:06.93] They wanna mention me?\n[05:08.44] Or rather mention us\n[05:09.45] Me or scot la rock\n[05:10.47] But they can get bust\n[05:11.86] Get robbed, get dropped\n[05:13.29] I don't play around\n[05:14.59] Nor do i f*** around\n[05:15.74] And you can tell by the bodies that are left around\n[05:18.26] When some clown jumps up to get beat down\n[05:21.00] Broken down to his very last compound\n[05:23.78] See how it sound?\n[05:24.88] A little unrational\n[05:26.31] A lot of mc's like to use the word\n[05:28.87]

the average new yorker\n[02:54.74] Some mc's be talkin' and talkin'\n[02:57.38] Tryin' to show how black people are walkin\n[02:59.94] But i don't walk this way to portray\n[03:02.21] Or reinforce\n[03:03.37] Stereotypes of today\n[03:04.82] Like all my brothas\n[03:06.02] Eatin' chicken and watermelon\n[03:07.64] Talk broken english and drug sellin'\n[03:10.16] See i'm tellin'\n[03:11.17] And teaching real facts\n[03:12.39] Now when some act in rap\n[03:13.98] Is kind of wack\n[03:15.02] And it lacks\n[03:15.92] Creativity and intelligence\n[03:17.78] But they don't care\n[03:18.68] 'Cause the company is sellin' it\n[03:20.40] It's my philosophy\n[03:21.40] On the industry\n[03:22.76] Don't bother dissin' me\n[03:24.03] Or even wish that we'd\n[03:25.36] Soften,

ham\n[03:36.56] Or chicken or turkey or hamburger\n[03:39.12] 'Cause to me that's suicide\n[03:40.61] Self-murder\n[03:41.75] Let us get back to what we call hip hop\n[03:44.04] And what it meant to dj scot la rock...\n[03:56.88] How many mc's must get dissed\n[03:59.05] Before somebody says, \"don't f*** with kris!\"\n[04:01.49] This is just one style\n[04:03.02] Out of many\n[04:04.38] Like a piggy bank\n[04:05.53] This is one penny\n[04:07.08] My brother's name is kenny\n[04:07.95] Kenny parker\n[04:09.53] My other brother i.c.u.\n[04:11.07] Is much darker\n[04:12.07] Boogie down productions\n[04:13.05] Is made up of teachers\n[04:14.26] The lecture is conducted\n[04:15.46] From the mic into the speaker\n[04:16.85] Who gets weaker?\n[04:18.06] The king or the teacher\n[04:19.32] It's not about a salary\n[04:20.70] It's all about reality\n[04:22.13] Teachers teach and do the world good\n[04:24.55] Kings just rule\n[04:25.54] And most are never understood\n[04:27.09] If you were to rule\n[04:28.03] Over a certain industry\n[04:29.73] **** right now\n[04:34.05] Would be in misery\n[04:34.50] No one would get along\n[04:35.29] Nor sing a song\n[04:36.17] 'Cause everyone'd be singing for the king\n[04:37.42] Am i wrong?!\n[04:38.13] So yo, what's up\n[04:39.02] It's me again\n[04:40.02] Scot la rock\n[04:40.99] Krs, bdp again\n[04:42.61] Many people had the nerve to think we would end the trend\n[04:45.03] We're criminal minded\n[04:46.67] And only tend\n[04:47.95] Funky, funky, funky, funky, funky hit records\n[04:49.93] No more than four minutes\n[04:51.72] And some seconds\n[04:52.68] The competition checks and checks\n[04:54.29] And keeps checkin'\n[04:55.21] They get the album\n[04:56.23] Take it home\n[04:56.86] And start sweatin'\n[04:57.76] Why? well it's simple\n[04:58.89] To them it's kind of vital\n[05:00.23] To take krs-one's title\n[05:02.78] To them i'm like an idol\n[05:04.18] Some type of entity\n[05:05.77] In everybody's rhyme\n[05:06.93] They wanna mention me?\n[05:08.44] Or rather mention us\n[05:09.45] Me or scot la rock\n[05:10.47] But they can get bust\n[05:11.86] Get robbed, get dropped\n[05:13.29] I don't play around\n[05:14.59] Nor do i f*** around\n[05:15.74] And you can tell by the bodies that are left around\n[05:18.26] When some clown jumps up to get beat down\n[05:21.00] Broken down to his very last compound\n[05:23.78] See how it sound?\n[05:24.88] A little unrational\n[05:26.31] A lot of mc's like to use the word\n[05:28.87]

again\n[04:42.61] Many people had the nerve to think we would end the trend\n[04:45.03] We're criminal minded\n[04:46.67] And only tend\n[04:47.95] Funky, funky, funky, funky, funky hit records\n[04:49.93] No more than four minutes\n[04:51.72] And some seconds\n[04:52.68] The competition checks and checks\n[04:54.29] And keeps checkin'\n[04:55.21] They get the album\n[04:56.23] Take it home\n[04:56.86] And start sweatin'\n[04:57.76] Why? well it's simple\n[04:58.89] To them it's kind of vital\n[05:00.23] To take krs-one's title\n[05:02.78] To them i'm like an idol\n[05:04.18] Some type of entity\n[05:05.77] In everybody's rhyme\n[05:06.93] They wanna mention me?\n[05:08.44] Or rather mention us\n[05:09.45] Me or scot la rock\n[05:10.47] But they can get bust\n[05:11.86] Get robbed, get dropped\n[05:13.29] I don't play around\n[05:14.59] Nor do i f*** around\n[05:15.74] And you can tell by the bodies that are left around\n[05:18.26] When some clown jumps up to get beat down\n[05:21.00] Broken down to his very last compound\n[05:23.78] See how it sound?\n[05:24.88] A little unrational\n[05:26.31] A lot of mc's like to use the word\n[05:28.87]

Get robbed, get dropped\n[05:13.29] I don't play around\n[05:14.59] Nor do i f*** around\n[05:15.74] And you can tell by the bodies that are left around\n[05:18.26] When some clown jumps up to get

brothas\n  Eatin' chicken and watermelon\n  Talk broken english and drug sellin'\n  See i'm tellin'\n  And teaching real facts\n  Now when some act in rap\n  Is kind of wack\n  And it lacks\n  Creativity and intelligence\n  But they don't care\n  'Cause the company is sellin' it\n  It's my philosophy\n  On the industry\n  Don't bother dissin' me\n  Or even wish that we'd\n  Soften, dilute\n  'Cause it's about time\n  One of y'all hear it\n  First-hand\n  From the intelligent\n  Brown man\n  A vegetarian\n  No goat or ham\n  Or chicken or turkey or hamburger\n  'Cause to me that's suicide\n  Self-murder\n  Let us get back to what we call hip hop\n  And what it meant to dj scot la rock...\n  How many mc's must get dissed\n  Before somebody says, \"don't f*** with kris!\"\n  This is just one style\n  Out of many\n  Like a piggy bank\n  This is one penny\n  My brother's name is kenny\n  Kenny parker\n  My other brother i.c.u.\n  Is much darker\n  Boogie down productions\n  Is made up of teachers\n  The lecture is conducted\n  From the mic into the speaker\n  Who gets weaker?\n  The king or the teacher\n  It's not about a salary\n  It's all about reality\n  Teachers teach and do the world good\n  Kings just rule\n  And most are never understood\n  If you were to rule\n  Over a certain industry\n  **** right now\n  Would be in misery\n  No one would get along\n  Nor sing a song\n  'Cause everyone'd be singing for the king\n  Am i wrong?!\n  So yo, what's up\n  It's me again\n  Scot la rock\n  Krs, bdp again\n  Many people had the nerve to think we would end the trend\n  We're criminal minded\n  And only tend\n  Funky, funky, funky, funky, funky hit records\n  No more than four minutes\n  And some seconds\n  The competition checks and checks\n  And keeps checkin'\n  They get the album\n  Take it home\n  And start sweatin'\n  Why? well it's simple\n  To them it's kind of vital\n  To take krs-one's title\n  To them i'm like an idol\n  Some type of entity\n  In everybody's rhyme\n  They wanna mention me?\n  Or rather mention us\n  Me or scot la rock\n  But they can get bust\n  Get robbed, get dropped\n  I don't play around\n  Nor do i f*** around\n  And you can tell by the bodies that are left around\n  When some clown jumps up to get beat down\n  Broken down to his very last compound\n  See how it sound?\n  A little unrational\n  A lot of mc's like to use the word\n  Dramatical!\n  Fresh for '88\n  You suckas...\n"}]
