Lyrics:
manhood
You beat upon little boys in the hood
Oh - what you're man enough to kill in a drive-by
Drive by the White House and all you do is wave hi
While
(911 dispatch) 911, forty reporting
(woman) hello 911, help me, help me
(911 dispatch) what is your emergency
(woman) there's someone in my house,
911, forty reporting
Hello 911, help me, help me
What is your emergency
There's someone in my house, there's someone in my house
Can you please
my, my
Uh, uh (you know what that is? It's inspiration)
Dedicated my (uh)
Whole damn life, if I wanted to now, I could live an old man life
makes me not judge as much
See, this is really us together, like
We chose to do this, this not no higher
Powers, like, I know what this nigga does
No question, bein a black man is demandin'
The fire's in my eyes and the flames need fannin'
With that what? (Knowledge Of Self) determination
and the auditors come
Sounds dumb, but this is how the phone got hung (yep)
Somebody hated that Mix-a-Lot rep
Straight-up snitch tryin to get Mix sw-ept
But I'm
a marker
Mainly what I write is for the average New Yorker
Some MC's be talking and talking
Trying to show how black people are walking
But I don't walk
[911 dispatch]
911, forty reporting
[woman]
Hello 911, help me, help me
[911 dispatch]
What is your emergency
[woman]
There's
[911 dispatch]
911, forty reporting

Hello 911, help me, help me
[911 dispatch]
What is your emergency
[woman]
There's
said.
So let them go to saturn...that's
Where they'll learn instead.
Because black and white
Together is right...
And white by itself is
An egotistic elf.
it, and just do it
And you know you got to just do it
Free your mind and define what is true to you
Hold your plan tight, something like paper
Records representative]
What time it is then, right?
[James A. Smith]
It's time to mix 5th Ward, South Park and 69th Curbs
And really let
for the black man never pretend
One day life starts - one day life ends
Open your eyes to realize that you just can't win
Another ghetto train, another
and materialism is killing blacks
And one more thing if I can ask
One more thing if I can add
Cause in this life
Our life just moves to fast
And time is somethng
out, I'm the C-A-S-A-N, the O-V-A
And the rest is F-L-Y
You see I go by the code of the doctor of the mix
And these reasons I'll tell you why
You
hide ya drug in the paper
You mega-mix it with some soda or shootin' it straight up
With the reserve or the black and maple original flavor
You know
niggas who love nigga moments, trapped in a niggas life
So what's it really like?
H-I-P H-O-P
It's magic
Black to the blackest degree
An ancient art
then coward duck your head
You don't know who you be fucking with you'se better off, dead
Is what I say, best run the other way
In case of physical
then coward duck your head
You don't know who you be f***in with you'se better off...dead
Is what I say, best run the other way
In case of physical
native, indigenous
Savage
Aboriginal, KRS-One is not the average
Barbarian, heathen, and pagan
Burnt faced negro
Original man that's what you're facing
tracks embellishes
The idea clearer that Wu-Tang Forever
This, way of life is art, rhymes and cleverness
Enjoying by God, no man could sever this
I
life showering weekly if nose aches
Vatican blasting and waiting on the headline
Deadline set getting older in the snowshine
Tasting a hardtack mix
to India leavin four successor states
By the Fifth century B.C., R.O.M.E.
succeeds to be the conqueror of Egypt and Greece
But had the threat of the Black
