("Bring it back, that old New York rap
3
Bring it bring it back, that old New York rap") -- repeats in background
4
The only reality
5
Is now...
6
Yo!
7
Verse One:
8
I rock slow and easy like soul
9
The New York flow, is strictly for the pro
10
Hip-hop! Ladies and gents
11
So you can know, every word yo, of the sentence
12
Hey la, like De La, I got Common Sense
13
Save the compliments for after I commence
14
to evidence of MC's, rockin under false pretense
15
Yes they get burned like incense
16
Myrrh and frankencense, you know the consequence
17
When you rock with KRS and don't make sense
18
Kris represents all MC's, that rock with ease
19
I'm not conceited, I got confidence in my abilities
20
Agility's my credibility
21
Oratorical artillery in all facilities
22
It Takes a Village like Hillary
23
when killin me, KRS has wide range capabilities
24
On the microphone, in the combat zone
25
MC's get eaten like the ozone layer
26
Hey ya, I'm not a playa I'm a teacher
27
But if I wanted your girl
28
You'd be Living Single like Latifah
29
Action Uptown like Monifah
30
I hit like a beeper, and hot like the bunny on Easter
31
Lyrically let me freak ya
32
With moves like Scoob and Scrap
33
Rock Stready, Stretch, Al and Kiko
34
I warm up any room like a heater
35
Bringin a New Balance to the speaker like a sneaker
36
Still a teacher, prove it, like medicine squared
37
This Garden of Eden, keeps the party movin
38
("Bring it back, that old New York rap
39
Bring it bring it back, that old New York rap") - repeat 2X
40
Verse Two:
41
I'm interested in skill and how we build as a culture
42
I don't eat off old material like a vulture
43
Repeatin myself for wealth is bad for my health
44
Everyday I express myself with a dope lyric
45
From my inner spirit, then I share it with others
46
As they hear me, enhancin
47
East and West, overseas, brothers and sisters
48
Sons and daughters transcended all borders
49
I deal with mind expansion
50
Anytime you aimlessly dancin, and romancin
51
It's your life that you be chancin
52
Not that I wanna sound gloomy
53
But I don't rhyme about Judy Judy, cutie and shake your booty
54
When you gonna grow up and be GOD?
55
Instead of making a rap a full time job
56
Yeah, it's a job and not an art
57
They only rhyme to get money;
58
cause true self-expression takes heart, and guts
59
Rhymes, and cuts
60
Tight minds and not tight butts
61
Reach your goal, like a puck
62
I wish you good skill and not good luck
63
Cause only skills put you up out the gutter so I utter
64
("Bring it back, that old New York rap
65
Bring it bring it back, that old New York rap") - repeat 2X
66
Verse Three:
67
That old New York flow means wrote for fun
68
And if the money come, THEN THE MONEY COME
69
But today and everyday, KRS speaks the truth
70
We dealing with unemployment in the city black youth
71
usin rap, to put clothes on they back
72
No culture, or disciplined, way to act
73
But soon yo, we'll take care of alla that
74
We're huntin fi de power help supress people tracks
75
That keep the culture intact, and soon you will see
76
In the black community, black unity
77
Not black nudity, after black puberty
78
For every crew to see, to breakin down the black community
79
The only one to blame is you and me
80
For not takin responsiblity for our artillery
81
Verbally, you heard of me, Knowledge Reigns Supreme
82
Over Nubians Everywhere, I kick it cause I care
83
The end isn't near, it's way over there
84
BLAOW! The only reality is now
85
But when I say bring back the old flava
86
That means bring back the ORIGINAL MC behavior
87
("Bring it back, that old New York rap
88
Bring it bring back, that old New York rap") - repeat 2X
89
Verse Four:
90
Now I got to show you how the BX rocks
91
MC's, are jumpin out shoes and socks
92
Body body rock body body rock
93
