KRS-One - Same Shit lyrics
[KRS-One - Same Shit lyrics]
Yeah same shit
Yeah same shit
Wake up
Listen
Terrorists and governments play the same game
Banks and big business take the same blame
Open your brain
The Klan and the cops are the same
Slave quarters, blocks
And prison blocks are the same
They only separated by name
Overrated by fame what's in a name?
Our colonists is the same
People can't really see it
Because they're blocked by the name
But really Nazi Germany and your
Black is the same look
Wall Street and Main Street
Really that's the same street
Drug talk, corporate talk
Really that's the same speak
Boom bap, boom bip
Really that's the same beat
A throne or a chair in your home
Really that's the same seat
I wrote and recorded this album
In the same week california and Barcelona
Its got the same heat i walk the same street
Put no trust in the game good cop, bad cop
They one and the same same shit
You know listen
Rapper and politicians they want
The same thing
To kneel before their master and
Kiss the same ring
But Solomon and Selassi them
Are the same king
So from I spit the same swing
Ding ding ding, there goes the bell
I'm the same as heaven
These dudes the same as hell
I'm the same as the plane at liftoff, fly
They the same as a rip-off, a lie
I remind you
Don't let the criminal mind blind you
Instead let the spiritual mind find you
See I'm you just twenty years ahead
Its to your advantage to hear KRS-ONE
And rewind what he said its the same shit
Its the same shit look
Drug cartels is what sells the medical
Drug spots and drug stores are identical
Y'all need to wake up and
Join with the woke folk
Ignorance is only gonna keep you
With them broke folk
KRS is on some cool shit
I ain't nothing to fool with
I teach more kids than the school gets
Game over, stupid
Its like we at the eight ball corner pocket
And I got the pool stick
You can say whatever
Me I'm living better and better
Getting cheddar
Out in Greece getting the feta
Up in Catalonia only eating paella
Up in Italy getting bread, call it bruscetta
I spit they cruise cars, I cruise ships
Democrat and Republican, that's the same shit
Its the same shit
