[KRS in the background] 
Go!! [x33] 

[KRS-One over repeated vocal] 
This is it! New York City 
It's very rare you get to hear it like this 
We bringin it back to y'all golden age 
Watch this (here we go) 

[Chorus x2: KRS-One] 
The teacher's back, the heat is back 
The teacher's back... 
The teacher's back, the heat is back 
The teacher's back... 

[KRS] The teacher's back 

Go!! [x16] 

[KRS-One] 
The teacher's back, the heat is back 
The teacher's back, the heat is back... GO!! 

The teacher's back, the heat is back 
Had to chill for a minute so you could see what was whack 
Rappers enter the game to increase they stack 
No skill, no style, man please step back 
This that real real raw raw rah rah rappin 
We started off street, now you pop, what's happenin? 
You callin me contradictory 
Yet I'm the most consistant MC in rap's history 
Is that the mic give it to me; hip-hop it's livin in me 
I smack rappers in they mouth deliberately 
KRS-One, I really MC 
I'm the different between real and Music TV - GO!! 

Go!! [x9] 

We ain't done! Uh-uh (here we go) 
We ain't done, let's go! 

[KRS in the background] 
Go!! [x16] 

[KRS-One over repeated vocal] 
Here we go 
Here we go 
Y'all been waitin for this (here we go) 
Here we go 

[KRS-One:] 
I spit them conscious lyrics, for those that can hear it 
I'd rather rhyme about the mind and the body and spirit 
But them cats be too hardheaded, they like "Aww, forget it" 
'Til they locked up and they blood is sheddin 
I really spit conscious rap 
And when I say "Stop the Violence" how you think we stoppin that~! 
With a flower, a protest, a rally a band 
Oh no, I got the baseball bat in my hand 
Overstand - I'm takin a stand, not takin THE stand 
I don't disrespect women because I'm a man 
And some say fe-man 
You uninformed journalists y'all can talk to the hand! 
On my block, women get respect and trust 
Cause when you diss a woman you dissin her fetus 
And dissin our unborn children will defeat us 
I'm not an elitist, I just know the world need us 
And the whole world don't need y'all 
Y'all just beatmakers, you need to learn from Marley Marl 

[KRS in the background:] 
Go!! [x32] 

[Chorus x2] 

[KRS-One:] 
Hold up, hold up, hold up Marley! Hold up
