1
(Phife from "Check the Rhime")Now here's a funky introduction
2
(scratching)
3
Guru: chorus 1(2X):
4
It's ALONGWAYTOGO, when you don't know where you're going
5
You don't know where you're going when you're lost (lost)
6
Guru:
7
What you need is more direction and get yourself some protection
8
I thought by now that you have learned your lesson
9
I'm stressin points and slammin all joints you call the real shit
10
Correct shit, you know the busta way you feel shit
11
Baby, I still don't think you understand
12
You lose the game, we get more props than Dan...Rather
13
And it don't matter cuz when you flinch, you're weak
14
So I'mma step just to speak about the counterfeit, unlegit type of people
15
Those cellophane ones, the ones that you can see through
16
It's poetic justice cuz I'm mad with a pact
17
So precise, my insight will take flight in the night
18
And in the daytime, cuz I don't come up with corny rhymes
19
I'm too devoted to the concept of gettin mine
20
So here's the deal like Shaquille O'Neal
21
If you don't know what you're doing, how the hell can you be real?
22
chorus 2 (2X):
23
(scratching)(Q-Tip from "Check the Rhime")How far must you go to gain
24
respect? Um...
25
Guru:
26
Now in '93, realistically you should be...well aware of all the evils out
27
there
28
It's like a jungle sometimes. You get the message?
29
You got to rumble sometimes, it's gettin hectic
30
Emotions run deep, as times run out
31
Solutions...it's time to find some out
32
So according to me, suckers are barred
33
>From obstructing my discussion cuz I rhyme too hard
34
You take a wiff like a spliff here, like some fresh air
35
I came to claim shit this year (this year)
36
So take a stroll down the walkway, or hallway, or runway
37
Fuck with us, kid, you'll pay
38
I slay...and yo, I'm still on the expressway
39
I kick my essay, then you know we don't play
40
So pray down on your knees, G
41
Cuz it's the best way, yes, the best way, cuz...
42
chorus 1 (2X):
43
chorus 2 (2X):
44
Guru:
45
There's a large amount of wack crews. For them, I got bad news
46
Time to pay your dues, you fools
47
I'm like express mail, with the script that hits
48
Like the third rail, when I shock the spot, it's hot
49
>From the rays of the sun
50
Original one the prophet sent to become
51
A law giver, cuz you shiver when I quiz ya
52
All about the real neccessities of life
53
All about the game and all about the name
54
G to the A to the N to the G Starr
55
We know who we are, but do you know who you are?
56
(Richard Pryor: You go down there looking for justice, that's what you
57
find, just us)
58
chorus 1: (4X)
59
chorus 2: (4X)
60
(scratching) Um... (until end)
