KRS-One - Can't Stop, Won't Stop lyrics

Open a de herb gate sellin pure ganja
Babylon come but they undercova
They never really want me stop sell ganja
(They just wanna take a cut of
What you make so far)
But I'm not havin it, I load the SLR
Pack the ganja BOOM! They break down the door
Pop-pop! T'ree shots
Exchanged at close range
Out of three Babylon, me hit one in the brain
Pop-pop! Two shots hit da window pane
I exchanged four shots, I drop and feel pain
But I'm not hit, into the bathroom I crawl
I look out the window, it's a one story fall
I'm fallin, hit the ground and start crawlin
Soon I'm walkin 'round
Blendin in with the crowd
Another day, I got away
I gotta fix this problem someday
But the very next day
Can't stop, won't stop - sellin mad izm


All comeptition - I gots to get with 'em
Me nah go jail and me nah go prison
(Take it to his face kid, diss him)

I'm in another herb gate like a superstar
Eleven AM, things are safe so far
I used to worry 'bout the
Competition on the block
But now the competition on the
Block is the cops
And even block watch doesn't
Know where we lay
Well ("Open up! It's the DEA!")
Aww man, just when I went for more lead
The door opens up
I got a Glock to my forehead
("Get down! Get on the floor!")
I felt the stick, i thought I was dead
But I woke up instead in a
Cell layin on my bed
I lay back down, then I heard the crack sound
Two DT's came in and laid they Glocks down
One was whistlin a love song
As he put some gloves on
I thought to myself, damn something's wrong
Boom bap! Boom bap against my head
I fell back on the bed, down to his feet
The pain was insane but the hit was sweet
Cause these dumb-ass cops punched me
Right by the heat the Glock, two shots
Three shots they screamin then someone said
("Hey wake up kid, you're dreamin!") i said
"Yo dreamin?! That nightmare was hell"
But as I look around, I was still in my cell
Damn, I got myself caught up in a jam
The DT that woke me up was like, WHAT?!
I wiped the saliva, off my mouth
The DT said ("Let's make a deal") No doubt!
No question, now we started up the session
No need for guessin
Yes they want my supplier i said
What makes you think there's anyone higher?
He said ("Don't be a God damned liar!")
You killed three DT's yesterday, you heard me
But still the cops you knocked
Off yea was dirty
Now the whole investigation is federal
We want you to point out
The rest of the cops that are criminal
He continued to say
You can't think it through
This whole drug game is BIGGER than you!
Follow our plan man and you'll be free
Let me explain one thing so you can see, we

Now I'm back in the herb gate, all wired up
Constantly thinkin about bein tied up
Snap out of it - I'm thinkin
"Damn we like elves!
The federal and local cops
Got wars with themselves
And I'm in the middle
And can't solve the riddle
My nose is runny" knock at door
("Let me get a 20!")
A 20 of the green or a 20 of the brown?
("Gimme the whole pound, clown
Or duck down!") gunfire
God damn, God damn, here we go again
But this time I'm set up by my federal friend
Suddenly I hear
("Yo, move from the door!") two shots
Followed by the shot sounded like
A four-four two shots
After the violence, then there was silence
Then I heard
("Hey yo it's us, open up the door!")
But rule number one in
This game is self-reliance
So I picked up the mini mac
In case they wanted more
The door opened up, the feds said WHATTUP?
They was stickin you up
So they had to get bucked
Suddenly a sense of trust came over me
I thought to myself
"Well soon I'll be free!"
But as I turned around
I heard the gun go click clik-clak
I said wait, but it was too late - GUNSHOT
