With cops y'all to blast y'all, harass y'all
Flash y'all as they pass y'all
Through the glass y'all
These videos gas y'all cause they trash y'all
I ask y'all this fact y'all unaired y'all
These cops y'all they scared y'all
They fear y'all they hear
Y'all they hate y'all
Less than 40, 000 a week, they make y'all
Cops y'all with black feet
Livin from week to week
Walk crooked beats in the streets y'all
They greet y'all with the heat y'all
To defeat y'all
It's deep y'all, hear what I teach y'all
And speak y'all

Science of mind - mess with that
Family - mess with that
Hip-Hop - we lovin that yeah, yo aiyyo, yo
Who seein us
With an overdose level of free in us
They bring the heat to us
They don't really want the beat in us
Take heed to us
While they plottin and schemin
To be deletin us
Best believe in us, they not defeatin us
Them Glocks wanna bust
With twenty-one shots to put the leak in us
So they can bloody the street with us
What does it mean to us
You know what they need from us
Give cream to us
Hide the lies and deceit from us
That doesn't equal us
Who's ready to get in the Jeep with us
Form a fleet with us and take
Back the street with us meet with us
Drop bombs in the street with us
Never saw it comin
Attack on the sneak with us
Thus, they can't compete with us
We flow through your veins like DJ's
When they cut, you'll be bleedin us
I came with Kris to heat it up
Showin my body's the temple
Hip-hop is the lock now put the key in us


Truth y'all, facts y'all, proof y'all
Black y'all time to check this map y'all
Are we goin back y'all?
Let's make a pact y'all
Come together watch your back y'all
Stay in tact y'all
Never whack - gimme dap y'all
Comin at y'all
Headcrack y'all with the facts y'all
Police y'all
On the attack y'all if ya black y'all
So if this is fact y'all, when we rap y'all
Over the track y'all
Why we rap about crack y'all?
That's whack y'all, we trapped y'all
Holdin the gat y'all just to
Kill another black y'all
Clak clak clak y'all, it's like that y'all
KRS-One yo, let's take it back y'all, listen!
