Show Respect

[Intro]

Okay

Okay

Okay let's do this

Uh huh

[Verse 1]

Before I spit the verse I'm versed up

I got to take a moment for some ancestor worship

Scott La Rock all day

Ms. Melodie all day

(?) all day

Kwame Toure okay

They watching over KRS today

There's so many ancestors with me

Man watch what you say

You don't even know how I got here

So many dudes are not here

So I do not fear

When the roads is not clear

We are not alarmed with it

(?) in the darkness I'm the spark in it

With every sentence your intelligence I sharpen it

Like a knife or a box cutter you cut the carpet with

Spark that shit

Dudes don't know how deep Chris Parker get

You hear the art I spit

Cause I was at the start of it

The cypher is hyper when KRS is part of it

The same cypher's incomplete when apart from it

What I'm saying

[Verse 2]

Let me make this really clear

They are not us

All these wack twitter rappers I do not trust

They will pull out the gat but they will not bust

They will witness injustice but they will not fuss

They sitting at home thinking they can stop us

I'm flicking ashes on these asses leaving them in the dust dust

Criminal minded

Spiritual minded

Political minded

My lyric you can time it

Watch how I rhyme it

Spit, shine, and grind it

Autograph and sign it

No corporation behind it

Free man, free MC, and free-minded

You looking for authentic and real

Well I'm it

These critics be amazed they don't know what it means

KRS still ripping it in 2017

On to 2018, 2019

Its a crazy scene, I'm all in their face like Maybelline
