Lyrics:
lived under the system, you now know as Jim crow
Where oppressive Black Codes and state laws created by those brutes
Trapped us in the burning hell
And kiss up to people that don't even like me
You know what I mean!
I don't expect everybody to like what I'm doin' out here
But I am the one that's gon'
A Tribe Called Quest represent, represent
Huh-huh, here we go, you know that I'm the rebel
Throwing out the wicked like God did the Devil
Funky like
know about a Robb Report
'Bout a high speed Porsche, i.e.
You niggas ain't know how to floss 'til I came through the door
Like 'Eric B. for Pres,'
acknowledge you (What's going on son?)
Step by step on this dim lit path
I gotta lead my people out of this wrath
But I'm lost and don't know if my way is
'm getting famous like a prostitute see erbody knows me
I got people who love what i do
I got people who copy my moves
Homie i ain't got nothing to lose
But
punk ass one day in the lunch room
Then, god damn I seen god damn Eric's crippled ass
walking down the street
Talkin’ bout he need a ride, what kinda
slapped his punk ass one day in the lunch room
Then, goddamn I seen goddamn Eric's crippled ass
Walking down the street
Talkin? 'bout he need a ride,
Thugs! We should clean you up
By high pressure cleaner
The day the people will wake up
You will pay for your actions (Thugs)
We feel like voting
Is
I know dey even got it from the giddy
Stacked in the back
Only black radio station in the city
Programmed by a sucker in a suit
Slick back hair he
like a poet
Keep you goin' when I'm flowin', smooth enough, you know with the rough
That's why the moral of my story I tell'll be
Nobody beats the R,
like a poet
Keep you goin' when I'm flowin', smooth enough, you know with the rough
That's why the moral of my story I tell'll be
Nobody beats the R,
so let me not explain it
You see even though I'm hurting I know people got it worse
So I don't wanna make it sound like I'm complaining
I remember when
so let me not explain it
You see even though I'm hurting I know people got it worse
So I don't wanna make it sound like I'm complaining
I remember when
millions[01:52.70]Since a child I couldn't feel the love at home I turned evil[01:55.31]Told Eric stop wilding now we lost him to them peoples[01:57.69]Under any
Don't get caught up in that life
I done seen so many people go and change up
Never will I ever forget where I came from
Living in a city where
{NERRRRRRRR-VOUS!}
Okay.. this album has been funded
By the Blastmaster KRS-One Fund
Ha ha ha ha ha ha hah!
You know what? We're gettin {NERRRRRRRR-VOUS!}
Okay,
or something, Eric Cogburn
I can't say it cause for sure it's illegal
He's the type of guy to retribute against my people
I shit in his mouth like a scat
everyday
Eric B & Rakim flow to such a diff'rent way
I'm lovin hip-hop cos it help brothers escape
Let's celebrate our music people before it's too late
To keep going and to keep on
Keeping on a lot of people doubted
Me when I was younger about my
Big dreams of becoming an artist
And I know that I probably
yet
I carry my cross with perfect steps
Put ya'll on my back
And never once have popped no Percocet
Eric at your service, baby - what you know 'bout
Feeling like a hypeman
Wash the top, burn it up like Eric the white man
I be fucking on yo bitch in my white bands
Just kidding bitch, I only wear
over
Uh
This for my people
(Yeah, yeah)
One of these days things will finally be different
Cause I’m still tryna imagine all the things that I have
Whoa
Yeah
Look
I got people in my circle but not in my corner (Wooh)
Coming to you on live like a TV supporter (Wooh)
Got a sword and a shield
