Take It

It's not about a salary, it's all about reality

I'm all in the academy, exposin all the fallacies

Not who other rappers be, FEW can go on after me

I know the city's trappin me, watch 'em like my calories

Cats that wanna battle me, they learn of the catastrophe

Don't bring your rappin back to me

NEVER will you ever challenge me with what you chat to me

SEALED is my anatomy, I do it lyrical mastery, KRS - OH!

The time has arrived as your wake up call

When I'm rhymin, I'm obliged to shake up all

It be a claat, this will drop the mic and take a ball

Too many part-time rappers that fake and stall

When you see KRS, you will say I'm tall

Cause no I don't take shorts, not at all

Philosopher, not some trick in the mall

{Before rock met rap, I was sicker than all}

I MASTERED THIS! FEW rappers goin after Kris

Thirteen albums, you do the math on this!

Obviously, knowledge you have to get

What the ignorant don't know, hell they'll laugh at it

All my college students you know you have to get

your receipt, I mean degree, it's only facts I spit

Take it, cause everyone ain't gonna make it

If you're hearin my voice, you have a choice now TAKE IT!

Just take it, you need it

We got way more in store, believe me

Consume it, {inhale} breathe it

(TAKE T-TAKE TAKE T-TAKE T-TAKE TAKE IT!)

Just take it, you need it

We got way more in store, believe me

Consume it, {inhale} breathe it

(TAKE T-TAKE TAKE T-TAKE T-TAKE TAKE IT!)

I rhyme, for the inner-city

No I don't ask for no praise or no pity

I got the power, you want to stay with me

Further down this lyrical road, it gets tricky

Stay with me! A different type of rapper emceein

Seeing is believing but believing is seeing

And seeing is agreein with the truth of your higher being

So when I'm rhymin, I take time with the minds I'm freein

The teacher is teachin, the student is seekin

Them hookers be creepin instead of a book on the weekend

I'm lookin to nukin 'em all in the dust

They reject knowledge and without the anointing, you rust

Laugh if you must, but trust that I see you naked

You need what I'm givin, but you front and you fakin

So like I stated, everybody ain't gonna make it

But if you're hearin my voice, you have a choice now TAKE IT!

Just take it, you need it

We got way more in store, believe me

Consume it, {inhale} breathe it

(TAKE T-TAKE TAKE T-TAKE T-TAKE TAKE IT!)

Just take it, you need it

We got way more in store, believe me

Consume it, {inhale} breathe it

(TAKE T-TAKE TAKE T-TAKE T-TAKE TAKE IT!)

I'll keep on bringin it, singin it 'til your ears is ringin

and steamin, gleamin the dream and true emceein with meaning

and see men, we all fiendin for the cream and the screamin

A demon got us believing screamin rhymin for NO reason!

Every weekend we weaken, discipline is what we needin

but we too busy freakin to understand divine speaking

KRS and BBE, with Will 1X and Phife Dawg, you'll see me

OH!! OH!! It's the real hip-hop

KRS-One, shout out to Scott La Rock

We do it from here to there, every city, every block

And now it's about time we STOP!
