KRS-ONE AND THE TEMPLE OF HIPHOP

KRS-ONE AND THE TEMPLE OF HIPHOP - Take It To God lyrics

rate me

(feat. Professor Ecks)

[KRS-One]

Yeah, once again, word up urban inspirational

KRS-One, Professor Ecks, whattup Dan? Woo

Temple of Hip-Hop, let's do it

By the sound of the track, you know who is back

It's the teacher, philosopher of conscious rap

Rappers tired of me sayin where hip-hop is at

Cause they know they unoriginal, copycats

Watch me bump this gospel rap, never wack

In fact, I tell you where the tracks is at

TV is wack, they wanna show us beatin Iraq

When the question is, is where is Chandra Levy at?

[Professor Ecks]

Murdered God and left for dead like hip-hop

And admit to Condit like conduct, to kill Ecks the dread

And Kris crucified the false prophet

John F. Kennedy to these MC's, I draw and cock it

Cock on cocky cops for the love of the art

Punish the part, partition

Pardon the pause, poison pens penetrate the mental

I walk with Kris so my body's a temple

Body instrumentals and body your squad in the body of a God

[KRS-One]

Just think, just think, what if Malcolm X returned

or Dr. King returned, tell me what have we learned?

As we takin our turn, tell me what have we earned

or is the ice and the cars our only concern

Mo' money, mo' money, you be yellin it out

And on TV can't you see you be sellin us out

So in 2010, look to 2002

Who you think they gonna respect, me or you?

[Professor Ecks]

Behold, the God, in the form of the man

Walkin off water and (?) flesh absorbs in the sand

Moor gets the land, divorcin the clan, I'm off into sand

Off and I'm slayin delicate arms from porcelain hands

Slaughtered the lambs, charge it to the game

Cats take hip-hop's name in vain

Disrespectin the forefathers who came (uh-huh)

Goddess hurt 'em right now, like when Marvin was slain

[KRS-One]

They don't want it, nope, they don't need it, nope

Just stay weeded and hope, I don't read what you wrote

Best believe they ain't dope, they deceivin these folks

with they meaningless quotes, I got my feet on they throat

What they speak is a joke, they really weak and they broke

Have a seat and take notes, on the streets I'm the Pope

MTV is they hope, they repeat what they wrote

I'm an MC that won't, let them tempt me with coke

[Professor Ecks]

Nope, flesh of my flesh, blessed by KRS

Used to love her, they (?) haven't made a date with death

Follow no man, enslave the Ecks, Professin the student

I vibe with the teacher obliged to drop (?) liver than heaters

Lyrics liable to eat us like the survivors of Jesus

Now the, blind is the leaders, your styles is egregious

Gets now the brow beateth to underground emceeth

The game is overheated, overweeded, and misunderstood

[KRS-One]

Word, just a ride in they boat, with a platinum rope

No doubt, they sellin us out, what's happenin loc?

Quit this rappin I won't, cause MC'n is dope

If I can't do it for the love then do it I won't

How many times we note when these rappers is dope

Satisfied, that's why I'm renewin your hope

Broaden your scope, when cleaned out your mind

my rhyme is like a new bar of deoderant soap

[Professor Ecks]

In this land of men mice and mimes, I holds right for the laws

Live life like Christ, makin bread from mics and applause

The snakes fight with Tyson like jaws for what's rightfully yours

I might (?) 'em all, tell me - is it life or it's war?

[singer]

Goooyyyyiiyyyiyyyyod, Goooyyyiyyiyyyiiiod, Gooyyyyiyyiyyyod

My God, your God, our God.. is God, is God

Change is gonna come, where you goin to run, but to God?

To God, run to God, run to God

Run to God, and let him in your heart

Change is gonna come, the change is gonna come

Make it your change, run to God, in your heart

Let God in your heart, he will fillt he part

Goooyyyyiiyyyiyyyyod, in youuuuuuur heart

Take it to God, take it to God God

Take it to my God, your God, take it to God

Take it to Goooyyyyiiyyyiyyyyod, take it to Goooyyyyiiyyyiyyyyod

Take it to Goooyyyyiiyyyiyyyyod, take it to God

Just take it to God, run and, take it God

Take it to Go-awd
