The Sneak Attack — текст песни (KRS-One)

[KRS-One]
Who was the first to flash the heat on the cover?
Who was the first crew to go against another?
Who was the first to go acapella on a video replay?
Who was the first to lose a DJ?
Who was the first to teach at Yale?
Who was the first to hit that hip-hop reggae, on the nail?
Who was the first to say +Stop the Violence+
and teach that real bad boys move in silence?
You`re soon to see the mindbendin rhyme weapon
Get more busy than two-two-three-double-nine-seven
All these rappers, swear they the best
I know whatchu thinkin about, Where`s KRS?
Eighty percent of these rappers fake they {shit}
The other twenty percent they goin upstate and {shit}
There`s no way out except knowledge and wisdom
I got it so I spit `em you ain`t got it you gotta get `em
Who was the first to produce mix and write
at the same time up in the club rockin the mic?
Who was the first to have a DJ and a side man?
The first to say what is hip-hop? I AM!
Who was the first to produce gangster {shit}?
Put out, gangster hits with a gangster click?
Not no prankster {shit}, Steady B, Mad Lion
Just-Ice, Shabba Ranks and {shit}
My Channel is Live, my only battle is Jive
MC to MC, you won`t survive
You`ll be censored cause my Crew is 2 Live
I ascend like Christ and watch you die

[Chorus: repeat 2X]
Breakers (HERE!) MC`s (HERE!)
Writers (HERE!) Beat-boxers (HERE!)
DJ`s (HERE!) Hip-Hop (HERE!)
Hip-Hop (RIGHT HERE!) Hip-Hop (RIGHT HERE!)

[KRS-One]
I`m like Noah, I`m takin `em, two by two
I took, them and them and I`ll take, you and you
Be I`m right or be I`m wrong
You`ll see I`m tight with this mic, you should be like, B I`m gone
But you still in my face Neo, I`m not your girl
All that ice and thug life, that`s not my world
I`m the teacher, but you still can`t see
cause while you respect Tupac, Tupac respected me
Another thing; don`t ever show me another ring
Remember you Rudy Ray Moore, I`m Martin Luther King
Everything you bring sounds horrendous
You need repentance, `fore I take attendance

[Chorus]

{*KRS-One hums a melody for a bit*}

[Chorus]
