The call of the order was to avoid the
He said, "Record ain't got nuttin for ya"
Without a lawyer, he taught The Lessons
In how hip-hop be a, many a blessing
And that was great, so in

The name of the game was Stop the
And unity, knowledge, and
We talkin' 'bout Martin and Malcolm

1989, Professor Griff speaks his
But his freedom of speech is
1990, came with the West
East coast, coast, who is the best coast?

back now, of course it was bogus
The whole argument was where we focus
We got hopeless, not with the and music
But hip-hop, and how we used it
Or abused it, you know how the get
You like it you choose it
1991, we our eyes
With Human Education Lies, we tried

To talk about the state of
But all others rappers got mad at me
They called me Captain Human, message was sent
Self Destruction don't pay the
Remember Nobody wanted conscious rap
It was where these ballers at
Where can call us at? All was wack
culture was fallin' flat and that was that

So in 1992, I found my
They said, "Yo Kris, you wanna do?"
I said, "Damn, why wanna get with me?
If I bust I'm contradictory"
If I play the bitch role, take my shoe
Tell me the am I supposed to do?
So I did it, don't get it get it get it
All of a sudden these critics they wanna it

Kay Are Ess One is
Just 'cause I wouldn't let rappers get with me
That, you and pen
If a wanna diss, yo I'd do it again
But I'm makin' these ends, and I got my

We put together somethin' the Temple of hip-hop
Not DJin', breakin', graf and lyrics
But how affects the spirit
Step a World, that's what I did
1997, I was my kid
Or kids, but I, had to go
'Cause New DJ's changed the flows

To and hoes, but that wasn't me
I'll be damned if I for the MTV
So in 1998, I to debate
Should I go now, or should I wait?
'99, I to L.A. you see
And took a gig the WB
Started studyin' philosophy
To have a full heart, full body, mind

But you know what the is or was
DJ's raise our kids, 'cause
They so caught up in the and jewels
How they really see a hip-hop school?
How they gonna see a hip-hop temple?
They even wanna play my instrumentals, but
Big up Dr. Dre, Snoop,
Especially Xzibit, he was in a minute

Mic Conception, all of them,
Yo you need help? I should call
I was in L.A., I held the crown
Bloods, Crips, they held me

Now I

{Now KRS-One, now you've been as saying that
Rap is something we do, hip-hop is you live

Explain to us please}

{Well, well, today hip-hop, we are advocating hip-hop is not
a music, it is an attitude, it is an awareness, it is a way
To the world
So rap music, is something we do, but hip-hop is something we
And we at hip-hop, in it's 9 elements
Which is breaking, emceeing, graffiti art, deejaying,
Street fashion, street language, knowledge, and street
Entrepenurialism, and business}

uhh, that's where y'know
That's the that that that we're about
We come from the uhh the root of, of DJ Herc
Who originated hip-hop in the 70's
And then Africa and Zulu Nation
Who instigated something called The Lessons
And added to hip-hop, and then Grandmaster Flash
With the invention of the mixer, on to Run-D.M.C. and myself}

{And uhh, we created the Stop the Violence movement, you may
A song, Destruction and and and so on
All of this, goes to uhh uhh, the idea of living culture out
And responsibility for how it looks and, and acts in society}
