Ah-Yeah

[Chorus] (Ah, yeah) That's what you say when you see a devil down (Ah, yeah) That's what you say when you take the devil's crown (Ah, yeah) Stay alive, all things'll change around (Ah, yeah) What? (Ah, yeah) [Verse 1] So here I go, kickin' science in ninety-five I be illin', parental discretion is advised still Don't call me nigga, this MC goes for his Call me god 'cause that's what the Black man is Roamin' through the forest as the hardest lyrical artist Black women, you are not a bitch, you're a goddess Let it be known, you can lean on KRS-One Like a wall 'cause I'm hard, I represent God Wack MCs have one style, gun buck But when you say, "Let's buck for revolution", they shut the fuck up Can't get with it Down to start a riot in a minute You'll hear so many baow-baow-baow, you'll think I'm Riddick While other MC's are talkin' about up with hope, down with dope I'll have a devil in my infrared scope, woi That's for calling my father a boy And klak-klak-klak That's for putting scars on my mother's back Bo That's for calling my sister a ho And for you, buck-buck-buck 'Cause I don't give a motherfuck Remember the whip, remember the chant, remember the rope and You Black people still thinkin' about voting Every president we ever had lied You know, I'm kind of glad Nixon died [Chorus] (Ah, yeah) That's what you say when you see a devil down (Ah, yeah) That's what you say when you take the devil's crown (Ah, yeah) Stay alive, all things'll change around (Ah, yeah) What? (Ah, yeah) [Verse 2] This is not the first time I came to the planet But every time I come, only a few could understand it I came as Isis, my words, they tried to ban it I came as Moses, they couldn't follow my commandments I came as Solomon to a people that was lost I came as Jesus, but they nailed me to a cross I came as Harriet Tubman, I put the truth to Sojourner Other times, I had to come as Nat Turner They tried to burn me, lynch me, and starve me So I had to come back as Marcus Garvey, Bob Marley They tried to harm me, I used to be Malcolm X Now I'm on the planet as the one called KRS Kickin' the metaphysical, spiritual Tryin' to, like, get with you Showin' you, you are invincible The Black Panther is the Black answer for real In my spiritual form, I turn into Bobby Seale On the wheels of steel, my spirit flies away And enters into Kwame Ture [Chorus] (Ah, yeah) That's what you say when you see a devil down (Ah, yeah) That's what you say when you take the devil's crown (Ah, yeah) Stay alive, all things'll change around (Ah, yeah) What? (Ah, yeah) [Verse 3] In the streets, there is no EQ, no dee-do-ee-do-ee-do So I grab the air and speak through the code, the devil cannot see through As I unload into another cerebellum Then I can tell 'em, because my vibes go through denim And leather, whatever, however, I'm still rockin' We used to pick cotton, now we pick up cotton when we shoppin' Have you forgotten why we buildin' in a cypher? Yo, hear me, kid, government is building in a pyramid The son of God is brighter than the son of man The spirit is, check your dollar bill, G, here it is We got no time for fancy mathematics Your mental frequency frequently pickin' up static Makin' you a naked body, addict, and it's democratic They press auto and you kill it with an automatic [Chorus] (Ah, yeah) That's what you say when you see a devil down (Ah, yeah) That's what you say when you take the devil's crown (Ah, yeah) Stay alive, all things'll change around (Ah, yeah) What? (Ah, yeah)
