KRS-One representing Ma 6T va Crack er, Cercle Rouge KRS-One

Droppin' on 'em like this, pick it up, pick it up

You know what time it is when KRS-One comes through

Representing all true hip hop culture, you know how we do

How can they throw you in prison now for long years

If in reality the black man doesn't belong here?

Have you forgotten how we got to this place?

Why then are all the jails predominantly the black race?

If you don't teach me my culture, I don't know who I am

I don't know the difference between my enemy and my friend

So I'm robbin' and killin' I got nothing to live for

You turn my father into a boy, my mother into a whore

Now I'm hardcore on the Ave

Watching while people that got me to walk fast

After beatin' us, rapin' us and robbin' us

400 years of that's what's inside of us

Take a look at me now I'm really your creation

A technological anti-human mutation

A mutation of a better way of life

You first pulled the knife

But to heal it will take my whole life

I fought no force on this level

I listen to bass and treble

Thinking that the white man is the devil

'Cause who could be so cruel like this?

So heartless, so senseless?

But I'm taught by the devil

To grow up and be a devil

To do the same devilish things on another level

However when I act out the mission

You turn around and throw me in prison

You a sucker

If you come from France

And you like the break dance, say, oh oh

(Oh oh)

And If you come from New York

And you like the way I talk, say, yeah

(Yeah)

You can kill a man by taking him out of his land

And putting him in a land he really doesn't understand

Then teach him to respect Greek mythology like

Pythagoras, Ptolemies, Socrates, these people are thieves

They stole us astronomy, mathematics, all tactics of biology

Even the concept of democracy stolen from the King Akhanoton

Put down the book, use your brain

If you don't know who you are you are clinically insane

The board of education can't see that

Well it deserves to get beaten and robbed by black

Give me my frame of mind back, give me my culture

But you don't understand that 'cause you a sucker

If you come from France

And you like the break dance, say, oh oh

(Oh oh)

And If you come from New York

And you like the way I talk, say, yeah

(Yeah)

I see Beauval in the house, Collinet in the house

Sarcelles in the house, Cercle Rouge in the house

KRS-One rocks the mike without a doubt

Turning parties out, you know what I am about

'Cause we will be here forever I told you

Soldier floods your mind like Noah

As you get older you've got to pay attention

At how you livin' hardcore

You ain't a kid anymore grow up

To blow up the spot you're at

Learn the skill and go to the top of that

Cercle Rouge definitely rockin' in rap

KRS-One I got your back

If you come from France

And you like the break dance, say, oh oh

(Oh oh)

And If you come from New York

And you like the way I talk, say, yeah

(Yeah)

KRS-One with the freestyle rhyme

Representing Cercle Rouge in France, all the graffiti artists

We like to break dance to the MC, yes, you know that's me

KRS-One down with the BDP

From way back you know we take it like that

Kenny P and Zizwe, Will-Dee, gods of rap

We do it like this, do it like that
