Krs One - Criminal Minded '08 lyrics

rate me

Dedicated to the great Scott La Rock

R.I.P., this one for you, my G

Let's get it

Boogie Down Productions... ('ductions)

With Premier, we gettin paid... (paid)

Y'all write the wackest songs... (songs!)

Our shit be beeeetta ('etta)

Remember, you act up, you will not win (win)

'Cause then I'll be-giiiin... ('giiiin)

To smash you with rhyyymin, rhymin, RHYMIN...

Criminal minded, this the jumpoff

My first one blast like you poppin that pumpoff

Yo Premier, why these rappers so soft?

They corny ass raps be makin me doze off

You know I get the whole house open

Got the whole East, West, North, South open

I ain't jokin, you know how many times

I spit rhymes and left rappers with they mouth open?

Y'all need to fall back

The 'hip-hop' you got in you NOW, I installed that

I spit a raw rap, peace and war rap

Ten more raps, where the tours at?

'Cause the world is soooooo hood, you must always be ready

... TO LET IT BLOOOOOOOW! (BUCK! BUCK! BUCK! BUCK! BUCK!)

I'd rather talk about peeeeeeeace, but these rappers won't let me

SO HERE WE GOOOOOOOO!

I'd rather mind my business, but these rappers think

They Superbad, that's when they get smothered, chocked, and gagged

I just bought another Jag

'cause when I spit lyrics, I step-father like your other dad

("One-two, one-two") I stay true

I'm a "GangStarr" and I'm "Guru"

Hah! I train like CHOO-CHOO!

Y'all rappers rap crap, BULLSHIT DOO-DOO!

Who knew? ! I don't compare to you

Look at my nose, I even take in more air than you

I'm more aware than you and I spit it

I built this hip-hop matrix then programmed you IN IT!

I would tell you what's gon' happen this summer

But I'm a general, I don't talk to runners

Y'all just rappin and rappin shitty

So when you talk abotu battle, I get giddy

"Wh-wh-wh-when I'm on a mic"

"KRS writes poetry"

"'Cause I'm KRS and I'm on the mic

And Premier is on the BREAKS~! "

"Boogie Down Productions" (That's right, Primo!)

"UH! " (Let 'em know)

(KRS, Criminal Minded)

(Yea) "So here we goooooo... "

Criminal minded, you been blinded

By the ice and the way rappers shinin

K-R-S, that's how I sign it

God knows I try to live non-violent!

But rappers be too defiant, no doubt

They make me wanna try this new Magnum out

They be draggin 'em out

Cause of death: Magnum goin off in the mouth

What y'all talkin 'bout? ! You better "Walk it Out"

Y'all start mumblin when that Hawk is out

New York ain't out! WHAT CHA'LL TALKIN 'BOUT? !

Y'all POP like when the cork is out!

Stoppin the violence is what I'm all about

STOPPIN THE VIOLENCE IS WHAT I'm ALL ABOUT!

But you raise ya fist to Kris, I'll maim ya wrist

And blow you out like a birthday wish!

I'm much sharper

Including New York State, the whole East Coast is Kris Parker's

But real talk, Digny

The true kings of New York left when it change hands to Disney

I got no time for the kid rap

The gun talk, drug talk, we already did that

These days I'm tryin to give back

Knowledge, wisdom, overstanding - now spit that!

"Wh-wh-wh-when I'm on a mic"

"KRS writes poetry"

"'Cause I'm KRS and I'm on the mic"

"I, I-I-I'll see you folks around the way"

"Wh-wh-wh-when I'm on a mic"

"K-K-KR-S writes poetry"

"Criminal minded"

"So here we goooooo... "
