[KRS-One, True Master - Knowledge Reigns Supreme lyrics]
Come on man, you know what KRS is about
This lesson's about city life
Stressing you out you guess and you doubt
You're feeling trapped, you'll never get out
Check the account, it's overdrawn
What's the amount?
You under and out, over the top
Ready to shout but then you find there's
A teacher talking about walking a route
Where DTs ain't chalking you out
You laugh now until them Feds
Are stalking you out
You gangsta? What the hell you talking about?
Knowledge Reigns Supreme
That's what New York is about
Open your mouth, KRS ain't stuck in the house
I'm on Flatbush and Church Ave walking it out
Erasmus High School, no pork in the mouth
I'm walking in faith
Them other dudes walking in doubt
I be pointing them out
KRS anointed with clout
I'm on a Rampage like the Last Boy Scout
I'm out
We come to make knowledge born for live cats
And cats laid back
But will still twist your cap
Keep a jewel under their caps
Not the pimps but the macks
Magnetic is in air like attract
Yeah, check that oh man! Fearless
This what the streets been waiting for
For real
And y'all know what I'm talking about
Hardness! Listen
Look, pleasure to meet ya
I'm know as the Teacha stronger, not weaker
Last week I blew off they tweeters
Taking it back to Filas and beepers
Not a deceiver i keep my soul to the street
Like the sole of my sneakers
My soul is not old or cold
I'm holding them heaters
When the story's told I'll be
Known as a focussed leader
If I ain't divine with this rhyme
Then the pope ain't either
I ain't on your radio cause I
Don't rhyme bout coke or reefer
But rest assured the hood
Know bout the Teacha
Teaching the gospel of Hip Hop so
The Devil won't eat ya
Come up to the speaker, let me feed ya
Join this movement 'padre we need ya!
We come to make knowledge born for live cats
And cats laid back
But will still twist your cap
Keep a jewel under their caps
Not the pimps but the macks
Magnetic is in air like attract
This lesson's about city life
Stressing you out you guess and you doubt
You're feeling trapped, you'll never get out
Check the account, it's overdrawn
What's the amount?
You under and out, over the top
Ready to shout but then you find there's
A teacher talking about walking a route
Where DTs ain't chalking you out
You laugh now until them Feds
Are stalking you out
You gangsta? What the hell you talking about?
