KRS-One - The Lingo lyrics

Ling, ling ling, ling, ling, ling, ling

I got the lingo, ling ling, the lingo
The lingo, ling ling, the lingo
I got that lingo, ling ling, the lingo
The lingo, ling ling

I got that lingo, the street lingo I bring yo
Acronology now the society to bring to
Too many people think so
I'm not just an OG, I'm
An Original Hustler, you like, "OH!"
Follow Life's Outcome Willingly, that's FLOW
WISDOM, When I Simply Decide on Moe, or More
I'm bringin' it to raw like a razor
FAITH, Focus And Ignore These Haters
Acronology is dope
Here is another one for FAITH, write
It down, "For All It Takes, hope"
Broaden your scope, it's Tha Teacha'
You heard of me i represent the struggle in
The 'hood most certainly
But STRUGGLE's more than a word to me
Here's a Situation That Reminds Us
God's Grace Lasts Eternally
LADY, Love And Develop Yourself
HLAW, Health, Love, Awareness, and Wealth
Acronology is not just BRB or Be Right Back
You gotta check the words you usin'
Like RELIGIOUS
It could mean Realizing Every Life In
God's Image Offers Useful Solutions
So why you cruisin' lookin' for a snack
Think DIET, "Did I Eat That?"
Put down the cake
Seek Help And Proper Exercise
Rewind that, that spells SHAPE
These definitions go beyond the intellect
Like MIND, "May I Now Direct?"
A new philosophy called acronology
I say it the word, the word inside of me, oh!
The heat is on, you can't leave it alone
This whole thing's created by G simone
Even KRS is a acronym
It means, "Knowledge Reigns Supreme
" spin it back again

I got the lingo, ling ling, the lingo
The lingo, ling ling, the lingo
I got that lingo, ling ling, the lingo
The lingo, ling ling

You can have so much fun with this
You can even take offensive words
And give it a twist
Like BITCH, offensive to the ear
Now switch it, "Because I Take Charge Here!"
With acronology, you gotta win
Here's another one for BITCH
"Because I Totally Challenged Him
Or Her, " you can't stop the edutainment
'Cause these types of rhymes keep
You out of your enslavement
It might not hit you or overstand
I'm takin' you HOME, "Here Our Mind Expands"
So before Departin' Earth Aimin'
For the Heavens which spells DEATH
You need to check these life lessons
They like weapons, the foundation is under me
I open up your mind to see how others see
Like GOSSIP, givin' Out Someone's Secret
Information Publicly
Or MUSLIM, May U See Love In Me
I see the CROSS and ask my wife she says
"it's a Constant Reminder Of Self-Sacrifice"
This is acronology, brothers and sisters
You FAMILY, For All My Intelligence, Love Ya

I got the lingo, ling ling, the lingo
The lingo, ling ling, the lingo
I got that lingo, ling ling, the lingo
The lingo, ling ling
