[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
26
Theory
27
Verse One: Guru
28
I seek Sun, deceive none, for each one must teach one
29
At least one must flow and show the structure, of freedom
30
It's me Dunn, cause petty things we don't need 'em
31
Let's focus to create somethin great, for all that sees them
32
They innocent, they know not what they face
33
while politicians save face genius minds lay to waste
34
If I wasn't kickin rhymes I'd be kickin down doors
35
Creatin social change and defendin the poor
36
The God's always been militant, and ready for war
37
We're gonna snatch up the ringleaders send em home in they drawers
38
But first where's the safe at? Let's make em show us
39
and tell em hurry up, give up the loot that they owe us
40
We bringin it back, around the way to our peeps
41
Cause times are way too deep, we know the Code of the Streets
42
Meet your defeat; this is my Robbin Hood Theory... my Robbin Hood
43
Theory
44
Verse Two: Guru
45
I floss my rhymes like dentals, my mental's presidential
46
from the wild ghetto districts to the plush resedential
47
Essential, would be the message that I send you
48
I meant to, elevate at every venue
49
Pops told me to pursue what is true, and nothing other
50
And nowadays I pave the way for troops of my young brothers
51
Necessary by all means, sort of like Malcolm
52
Before it's too late; I create, the best outcome
53
So I take this opportunity, yes to ruin the
54
Devilish forces fuckin up my black community
55
And we ain't doin no more interviews
56
til we get paid out the frame, like motherfuckin Donahue
57
We're taking over radio, and wack media
58
Cause systematically they gettin greedier and greedier
59
Conquering turfs with my ill organization
60
Takin out the man while we scan the information
61
You wanna rhyme you best to wait son
62
You can't even come near, if you ain't got our share
63
You front on us this year, consider yourself blown out of here
64
Yeah... by my Robbin Hood Theory
65
Chorus
66
Verse Three: Guru
67
God is Universal, he is the Ruler Universal
68
For those who can't follow that spells GURU when in my circle
69
I see all sides of my culture...
70
Design my thoughts like a sculpture
71
And chumps they wanna get with me cause I'm another entity
72
I'm sent to be, leadin the army of the century
73
Mention me, and snakes will retreat, eventually...
74
... due to my Robbin Hood Theory
75
Chorus
