"Know Thy Self lyrics"

Run lyrics
Run, run, run Keep on beatin' them down, what could make you so mad to beat your own children black and blue Your time will come The beat downs turn to you, you call yourself a man, your children black and blue once again, black and blue once again, black and blue Run, run, run, why don't you walk away, abusive husbands, a childhood lost, betrayed, run, run, run The old man's drunk again, from the hand that feeds has turned into a fist, the nightmares are our memories, the broken h
You ready to go?  I'm ready to go
What about y'all, y'all ready to go? (yeah aight yeah) I'm ready to go
Look

[repeat 3X]
Know thy self, and thou shalt know
The universe and God (whoa-ohh-ohh)

God is the mother, the father, the friend
Know ye not that ye must be born again?
What does it mean to be in the world but not of it
It means you want the cars the cash the jewels the house but you don't love it
It means to taxes regulation state law you live above it
It means you a FREE hip-hopper, you ain't nobody's puppet
You don't see no money on me, you see it up in the cupboard
You see me up in Toys'R'Us, with my seeds cause they love it
You see insurance flash out, if my kids pass out
You see seven acres of land where we can all spaz out
To all my fathers that fathered, hold your head up for starters
Teach your toddlers, not to be thieves and robbers
This that other kind of rap, that leads to true hip-hop
There's other kinds of raps, but they lead you to get shot
The choice is yours, you gettin 
Autumnal lyrics
If you learn to drive, I can use the train and the bus.When you're mobile, we'll go.Take my toys and your cat with us.We'll leave the violence, we'll have something to do.With a couch-bed in the front room for when we fall out or when our friends come through.It's painting a kitchen that's keeping me going and we've already named the seeds I'll be sowing.And when they've grown up (that's hoping that I don't shoot blanks), could we move right up north, find a house n
older now You got a kid comin, how you gonna hold it down? It's one thing to be iced out and rocked up What's the point if you're gettin locked up? [repeat 3X] Know thy self, and thou shalt know The universe and God (whoa-ohh-ohh) God is the mother, the father, the friend Know ye not that ye must be born again? It's really time we seperate the young men from the big men The young girls from the women, whatever the title that fit them My style designed to open a child's mind when I spit them I only got a little bit of time to really rhyme and uplift them You see them brothers talkin about that crime? Forgive them It won't be long before they words manifest and they live them Sometimes you gotta go back to the beginnin to learn After fifteen years I'm just BEGINNIN to burn To all my true hip-hoppers, that pay bills and live proper Never allow a negative thought to stop ya Correct ya posture, stand upright not uptight Don't be scared of the light, just prepare for the fight We say "Criminal Minded", cause our thoughts are il
Peaceful Day lyrics
Listen up everyone there's something wrong We got the answers in our sights now But somehow still we struggle along Looking for solutions in a threatening sky But we never get an answer Just a chorus of voices wondering why We're stuck here without a peaceful day It's a promise in the night I'll be okay The superlative is telling me that help is on the way Won't someone tell me how will I make it through today Looking towards the future and all I can see Is the next ge
egal We represent the very thinkin of, inner-city people Real people, people that take care of theyself They need health, love, awareness and wealth Not to mention, knowledge of God Not college, the job then dead - if you agree nod your head It's one thing to be iced out and rocked up But what's the point if you're gettin locked up? [repeat 3X] Know thy self, and thou shalt know The universe and God (whoa-ohh-ohh) God is the mother, the father, the friend Know ye not that ye must be born again? C'mon c'mon yo, tonight is it We gonna steal away together, through these rhymes I spit When the student is ready, the teacher, shall appear So I'm here, but are you really ready to face your fears? Mo' money, mo' money, is that your credo? You've been livin in a dream world Neo, power to the people! Nobody's equal, everybody's diversed and different My lyric'll never cheat you, my verse is gifted So manifest what you believe is God almighty It could be Allah Jesus Krishna Buddha Aphrodite It could be Nefretire come hear me and neve
All I Want lyrics
Music: LynchLyrics: Logan, Brown, EspositoEvery night when you go out walkingEvery step you take keeps me yearning for some moreThose green cat-eyes pull me down insideAnd yo jelly liyups can't push me away, no (note: what the hell is a liyup?)'Cause baby, when we're aloneEverything's alrightAnd baby, right or wrongLemme give ya some lovin' all my ownThat's all I want, you know it's all I needYou know that one thang that brings me to my kneesThat's al
fear me It's like at some point in your life you gonna have to hear me I represent them teachers preachers comin through your speaker Manifestin another lesson to them true believers Instead of pickin up our women ready to mistreat 'em You better get yourself a wife and kid and never leave 'em You better teach 'em you better read 'em you better feed 'em The system will defeat 'em if you don't teach 'em the cops'll beat 'em The style that I be kickin quick is "Edutainment" Hip-Hop culture needed a teacher quick so I became it Instead of rhymin about my history and what I been through I'd rather rhyme about awakening the God within you Yo, it's one thing to be iced out and rocked up But what's the point if you're gettin locked up? [repeat 3X] Know thy self, and thou shalt know The universe and God (whoa-ohh-ohh) God is the mother, the father, the friend Know ye not that ye must be born again? [KRS-One] Yeah.. yeah..
