[Intro features Elijah Shabazz from Muhammad Mosque No. 7]
2
Peace Brother Elijah
3
Hey peace Guru, how you doin?
4
I'm maintainin
5
Just been thinkin though man
6
about the situation for today's youth man, the seeds man
7
What's your opinion on that?
8
Mmm that's strange I was thinkin the same thing
9
Somethin I read in the holy Qu'ran how it says
10
"Has thou seen him who belies religion?
11
That is one who is rough, to the orphan."
12
And no matter what we say our religion is
13
whether it's Islam, Christianity
14
Juddaism, Buddha-ism, Old School-ism or New School-ism
15
If we're not schooling the youth WITH wisdom
16
then the sins of the father will visit the children
17
And that's not keepin it real...
18
that's keepin it -- WRONG
19
Chorus: Guru
20
Now that we're gettin somewhere, you know we got to give back
21
For the youth is the future no doubt that's right and exact
22
Squeeze the juice out, of all the suckers power
23
And pour some back out, so as to water the flowers
24
This world is ours, that's why the demons are leary
25
It's our inheritance; this is my Robbin Hood Theory... Robbin Hood Theory
26
Verse One: Guru
27
I seek Sun, deceive none, for each one must teach one
28
At least one must flow and show the structure, of freedom
29
It's me Dunn, cause petty things we don't need 'em
30
Let's focus to create somethin great, for all that sees them
31
They innocent, they know not what they face
32
while politicians save face genius minds lay to waste
33
If I wasn't kickin rhymes I'd be kickin down doors
34
Creatin social change and defendin the poor
35
The God's always been militant, and ready for war
36
We're gonna snatch up the ringleaders send em home in they drawers
37
But first where's the safe at? Let's make em show us
38
and tell em hurry up, give up the loot that they owe us
39
We bringin it back, around the way to our peeps
40
Cause times are way too deep, we know the Code of the Streets
41
Meet your defeat; this is my Robbin Hood Theory... my Robbin Hood Theory
42
Verse Two: Guru
43
I floss my rhymes like dentals, my mental's presidential
44
from the wild ghetto districts to the plush resedential
45
Essential, would be the message that I send you
46
I meant to, elevate at every venue
47
Pops told me to pursue what is true, and nothing other
48
And nowadays I pave the way for troops of my young brothers
49
Necessary by all means, sort of like Malcolm
50
Before it's too late; I create, the best outcome
51
So I take this opportunity, yes to ruin the
52
Devilish forces fuckin up my black community
53
And we ain't doin no more interviews
54
til we get paid out the frame, like motherfuckin Donahue
55
We're taking over radio, and wack media
56
Cause systematically they gettin greedier and greedier
57
Conquering turfs with my ill organization
58
Takin out the man while we scan the information
59
You wanna rhyme you best to wait son
60
You can't even come near, if you ain't got our share
61
You front on us this year, consider yourself blown out of here
62
Yeah... by my Robbin Hood Theory
63
Chorus
64
Verse Three: Guru
65
God is Universal, he is the Ruler Universal
66
For those who can't follow that spells GURU when in my circle
67
I see all sides of my culture...
68
Design my thoughts like a sculpture
69
And chumps they wanna get with me cause I'm another entity
70
I'm sent to be, leadin the army of the century
71
Mention me, and snakes will retreat, eventually...
72
... due to my Robbin Hood Theory
73
