[id:$00000000] [ar:Boogie Down Productions] [ti:My Philosophy] [by:] [hash:7a84886f111b3e4460a0e68cd5c213b0] [al:] [sign:] [qq:] [total:0] [offset:0] [00:01.09]So you're a philosopher [00:03.83]Yes yes yes yes [00:09.90]I think very deeply [00:12.46]I think very deeply [00:15.35]I think very deeply [00:17.46]I think I think I think very deeply [00:22.41]In about four seconds [00:24.03]A teacher will begin to speak [00:27.33]Let's begin what where [00:28.77]Why or when [00:29.90]Will all be explained [00:30.96]Like instructions to a game [00:32.45]See Im not insane [00:33.58]In fact Im kind of rational [00:35.38]When I be asking you [00:36.70]Who is more dramatical [00:37.70]This one or that one [00:38.88]The white one or the black one [00:40.38]Pick the punk [00:41.25]And I'll jump up to attack one [00:42.88]Krs-one is just the guy to lead a crew [00:45.63]Right up to your face and dis you [00:48.05]Everyone saw me [00:48.93]On the last album cover [00:50.37]Holding a pistol something [00:51.87]Far from a lover [00:52.99]Beside my brother s-c-o-t-t [00:55.92]I just laughed [00:56.66]Cause no one can defeat me [00:58.23]This is lecture number two [00:59.73]My philosophy [01:00.79]Number one was poetry [01:02.54]You know its me [01:03.55]This is my philosophy [01:04.30]Many artists got to learn [01:06.11]Im not flammable I dont burn [01:08.23]So please stop burnin [01:09.48]And learn to earn respect [01:11.04]Cause thats just what kr collects [01:13.35]See what do you expect [01:14.53]When you rhyme like a soft punk [01:16.22]You walk down the street [01:17.59]And get jumped [01:18.41]You got to have style [01:19.78]And learn to be original [01:21.15]And everybodys gonna wanna diss you [01:23.64]Like me we stood up [01:25.45]For the south bronx [01:26.52]And every sucka mc had a response [01:28.51]You think we care [01:29.76]I know that they are on the tip [01:31.51]My posse from the bronx is thick [01:33.75]And were real live we walk correctly [01:36.44]A lot of suckas would like [01:37.94]To forget me [01:38.81]But they cant cause like a champ [01:40.80]I have got a record [01:42.05]Of knocking out the frauds in a second [01:44.24]On the mic I believe [01:45.48]That you should get loose [01:46.73]I havent come to tell you I have juice [01:48.92]I just produce create [01:49.72]Innovate on a higher level [01:52.36]I'll be back but for now just seckle [02:05.18]I'll play the nine and you play the target [02:07.12]You all know my name [02:08.12]So I guess Ill just start it [02:09.68]Or should I say start this [02:10.93]I am an artist [02:12.11]Of new concepts at their hardest [02:14.74]Cause yo Im a teacher [02:15.92]And scott is a scholar [02:17.16]It aint about money [02:17.98]Cause we all make dollars [02:19.72]Thats why I walk with my head up [02:22.28]When I hear wack rhymes I get fed up [02:24.90]Rap is like a set-up a lot of games [02:27.76]A lot of suckas with colorful names [02:29.89]Im so-and-so Im this Im that [02:32.32]Huh but they all just wick-wick-wack [02:34.91]Im not white or red or black [02:37.47]Im brown from the boogie down [02:40.09]Productions [02:40.41]Of course our music be thumpin [02:42.77]Others say their bad [02:44.33]But theyre buggin [02:45.46]Let me tell you somethin [02:47.20]Now about hip hop [02:48.20]About d-nice melodie [02:49.64]And scott la rock [02:50.58]Ill get a pen a pencil a marker [02:53.13]Mainly what I write is [02:54.32]For the average new yorker [02:55.63]Some mcs be talkin and talkin [02:58.19]Tryin to show how black people are walkin [03:00.94]But I dont walk this way to portray [03:03.18]Or reinforce stereotypes of today [03:05.62]Like all my brothas [03:06.80]Eat chicken and watermelon [03:07.86]Talk broken english and dr*g sellin [03:11.17]See Im tellin and teaching real facts [03:13.41]The way some act in rap is kind of wack [03:15.84]And it lacks creativity and intelligence [03:18.60]But they dont care [03:19.65]Cause the company is sellin it [03:21.21]Its my philosophy on the industry [03:23.53]Dont bother dissin me [03:24.96]Or even wish that wed [03:26.27]Soften dilute [03:27.08]Or commercialize all our lyrics [03:28.83]Cause its about time [03:30.01]One of yall hear it [03:31.26]And hear it first-hand [03:32.32]From the intelligent brown man [03:33.82]A vegetarian no goat or ham [03:36.75]Or chicken or turkey or hamburger [03:39.50]Cause to me thats suicide self-murder [03:41.62]Let us get back to what we call hip hop [03:44.30]And what it meant to dj scott la rock [03:46.98]So you're a philosopher [03:48.40]Yes I think very deeply [03:52.09]In about four seconds [03:53.34]A teacher will begin to speak [03:57.14]How many mcs must get dissed [03:59.26]Before somebody says [04:00.26]Dont **** with kris [04:01.89]This is just one style out of many [04:04.44]Like a piggy bank this is one penny [04:06.94]My brothers name is kenny thats [04:08.68]Kenny parker [04:09.88]My other brother i c u is much darker [04:12.19]Boogie down productions [04:13.87]Is made up of teachers [04:14.87]The lecture is conducted [04:15.75]From the mic into the speaker [04:17.24]Who gets weaker [04:18.36]The king or the teacher [04:19.62]Its not about a salary [04:20.93]It's all about reality [04:23.23]Teachers teach and [04:23.85]Do the world good [04:24.73]Kings just rule and [04:25.85]Most are never understood [04:26.62]If you were to rule [04:27.80]Or govern a certain industry [04:29.99]All inside this room right [04:31.24]Now would be in misery [04:32.74]No one would get along [04:33.80]Nor sing a song [04:34.92]Cause everyoned be singing [04:36.05]For the king am I wrong [04:37.54]So yo whats up it's me again [04:40.54]Scott la rock krs bdp again [04:42.91]Many people had the nerve [04:44.16]To think we would end the trend [04:45.65]Were criminal minded [04:46.53]An album which is only ten [04:48.47]Funky funky funky funky [04:49.77]Funky hit records [04:50.59]No more than four minutes [04:52.09]And some seconds [04:53.03]The competition checks [04:53.96]And checks and keeps checkin [04:55.58]They buy the album [04:56.65]Take it home and start sweatin [04:58.02]Why well its simple [04:59.33]To them its kind of vital [05:00.76]To take krs-ones title [05:03.16]To them Im like an idol [05:05.04]Some type of entity [05:05.97]In everybodys rhyme [05:07.41]They wanna mention me [05:08.59]Or rather mention us [05:09.65]Me or scott la rock [05:11.03]But they can get bust get robbed [05:12.83]Get dropped [05:13.59]I dont play around [05:14.77]Nor do I **** around [05:16.20]And you can tell by the bodies [05:17.83]That are left around [05:18.70]When some clown jumps up [05:19.95]To get beat down [05:21.32]Broken down to [05:22.39]His very last compound [05:24.07]See how it sounds [05:25.00]A little unrational [05:26.38]A lot of mcs like to [05:27.94]Use the word dramatical [05:28.81]Fresh for 88 you suckas
