KRS-ONE lyrics : "H.I.P.H.O.P."

(feat. Thor-El)

[KRS] Yeah that's the one - yo Thor-El just just check your mic


[Verse One: Thor-El]


So you wanna be the million dollar man, kid what's your plan
Make a deal with the devil settle for a hundred grand
Not enough I call your bluff, hit you with the stuff

Deal with this and think you're tough, gimme a call when things get rough
You get no Vette and, if I could stay leaded
I'm leavin rappers one-legged from fakin like the prosthetic

you're artificial by cripple, rap is like your pistol
Grim Reaper, I got the whistle, death I pull no tissue
Hit you, like the Mac-11, MC's subtract by seven

Callin callin for the reverand, lookin at hell like heaven
I'm on the map, makin it like the crazy on the track
Oh what the hell I get my mail while I raid you til it crack


[Chorus: KRS and Thor-El]


H, I, P, H, O, P, we are
H, I, P, H, O, P, we are


[Verse Two: KRS-One]

C'mon, uhh

Dead two in the head before some A&R tell me
I must give up the streets you lift the company can sell me
What's the sense in being large if you can't take a risk?

Thinkin a risk upon a disc means you're written off the list
I'm not sayin you can't have your fame and glory just don't bore me
when I come to see you live, and I paid twenty-five

That's, crazy loot Kris is saying I don't play those games
Killing Rhyme Sessions is the meaning of my name
But don't call my name in vain, cause I will appear

And your livest MC will get slain right here
See I do the homework, and I do the extra credit
You could sell a million records, and still can't set it

Cause the Lex or Beem is probably just the matches and a Jeep so
I'm sure your rap career now if they come before your people
Ohh Lord!! You can't be thinkin about Billboard

With the mic cord, and several thousand people just bored
Being dope live is like being insured for life
You always get called back twice, you are


[Chorus x2]


[Verse Three: Thor-El, KRS-One]

I burn like hy-dra-cho-loric and my city got itty

He's terrible, Thor-El's incredible and terrific
Is it, that you're under the influence of local obvious
Rappers that die, but why, explain the obvious


No stoppin this lyrics from the esophagus
rockin strictly the hip-hop populace
