You know, life is
If you don't repeat the of your own success
You won't be
You gotta your own formula, your own ingredients
What you, you

1987, I was at the Latin
Listenin' to Africa Bambaata the order
The call of the was to avoid the slaughter
He said, "Record companies ain't got for ya"
Without a lawyer, he The Infinity Lessons
In how hip-hop be a, many a blessing
And was great, so in 1988
There was no debate, we had to end the

The name of the game was the Violence
And unity, knowledge, and
We talkin' 'bout Martin and Malcolm
Had these ghetto kids goin', huh, what him?
1989, Professor speaks his mind
But his freedom of speech is
1990, came with the West
East coast, West coast, who is the best

Lookin' now, of course it was bogus
The argument was where we lost focus
We got hopeless, not with the lyrics and
But hip-hop, and how we used it
Or abused it, you how the crew get
You like it you choose it
1991, we our eyes
Human Education Against Lies, we tried

To talk about the of humanity
But all these others got mad at me
They me Captain Human, another message was sent
Self don't pay the rent
Remember Nobody wanted conscious rap
It was where these ballers at
Where can they us at? All was wack
Hip-hop culture was fallin' flat and that was

So in 1992, I found my
said, "Yo Kris, what you wanna do?"
I said, "Damn, why they get with me?
If I they I'm contradictory"
If I play the role, they take my shoe
Tell me what the am I to do?
So I did it, stop get it get it get it
All of a these critics they wanna spit it

Kay Are Ess One is
Just I wouldn't let these rappers get with me
That, you and pen
If a rapper wanna diss, yo I'd do it
But I'm makin' these ends, and I got my
And I don't wanna have to sit in the pen
So I go to the philosopher
1993, is uhh, wack

Go back, check the
1994, of the Boom Bap
It wasn't all the loot
It was all about Harry Allen Rhythm Institute
Blowin' 1 up,
Conscious rap is alive
But nobody wanna play it, nobody say it
Nobody okayed it, all rather hate it

1996, it really stop
We put together called the Temple of hip-hop
Not just DJin', breakin', and lyrics
But how hip-hop affects the
Step Into a World, that's I did
1997, I was my kid
Or kids, but I, had to go
'Cause New York 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 I really wait?
'99, I to L.A. you see
And a gig with the WB
studyin' philosophy full-time
To have a full heart, full body, mind

But you know what the is or was
don't raise our kids, 'cause
They so caught up in the cash and
How they gonna see a hip-hop school?
How they really see a hip-hop temple?
don't 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 them
When I was in L.A., I held the
Bloods, Crips, they me down
I could forget Mad Lion, killer pride
the gat in the lap in the low-ride
Oh, I forget, Icy Ice, Lucky Lou
Julio G, that was the

Davey D, Ingrid, David
The goes on and on, let me tell ya
FredWreck, and my man
respect, no less
To my spiritual and mental
Big up to L.A., members
But in 2000, I seen how I wanted to
I no executive

So I picked up the mic and I my job
Said to Simone, I get with God
She said, "Don't worry bout these dollars and
Record ain't got nuttin' for ya"
Damn, she me back to Bam
me back to who I am
Brought me back to the New land
Now I

{Now KRS-One, now you've been quoted as saying
Rap is something we do, is something you live
Yes
Explain that to us

{Well, well, today hip-hop, we are advocating that 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 is something we live
And we at hip-hop, in it's 9 elements
Which is breaking, emceeing, art, deejaying, beatboxing
fashion, street language, street knowledge, and street
Entrepenurialism, and business}

{And uhh, that's y'know
That's the that that that we're about
We come from the uhh the root of, of Kool DJ
Who originated hip-hop in the early
And then Bambaata and Zulu Nation
Who instigated called The Infinity Lessons
And added consciousness to hip-hop, and then Grandmaster
With the invention of the mixer, on to Run-D.M.C. and myself}

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