Brave is the knave who steps up to be slayed
by the one who forgave him for his first mistakes
He d best behave, or I ma send him a wave
of some shocking volts, he doesn t know what he s talkin about
He s kickin a bunch of crap so I ll be the judge of that
The boy lacks artistry but still he tries hard to be
an entertainer, but instead he s a waste of
my time and your time so I ll kick the pure rhymes
Whenever you re looking for rap that s exceptional
and credible, straight to the G s you better go
Cause GangStarr s known to be prone to be
masters of streetwise poetry and turntable wizardry
but still be a cold day in Hell when you hear that
Guru or Premier ever tell suckers get sales
but they fail in the long run that kid who went gold yo
That was the wrong one but tonight the spotlight is all on me
I m the Guru, of the G-A-N-G
Taking out scrubs cause they rub me the wrong way
and I ll say, that they ve still got a long way to go
to show they can flow like a real pro
So gimme that loot catch the boot from my steel toe
I m changing the scenery as I make em uncomfortable
cause most MC s ain t really got no pull
Watch me stifle em quick with the gift and the wit
Make em quit all that riff as I flip the script

Chorus

Fool listen, I know that you ve been missing
all this and so my rhymes are gonna gleem and glisten
like a gem, and if you are the fake MC type
I ll shine so bright I ll be blinding your eyesight
Your capabilities fall short so I ma treat you like a dwarf
on a basketball court still you try to rap
And even claim you got new styles but
rolling your tongue s been playe dout for a while
And you don t sound fly so why are you doing that?
You had a dope track but you re wack so you ruined that
I couldn t make out what you were saying your diction
is jumbled where as me I m conveying clear thoughts
to a crowd that s most critical
Booty duck rappers like you are just pitiful
I bet you couldn t name more than one pioneer
Cause you didn t pay dues and you got on on outta nowhere
But that s OK cause I m peeping your card
If rap was my house you d be sweeping the yard
As I recline I ll find more chores to give ya
like moppin the floors or maybe fetchin my slippers
So don t even trip or run off with the lip
Cause as soon as you slip you know I ll flip the script

Chorus

So as I kick a bit flip with script without a skip
butter roll MC s get dissed like this
You ll never got none son because I ll become troublesome
You rap like a simpleton
And I hate scum yo I can easily deflect your threats
cause they re idle my recital will break you down
Just a fight til the end cause I can take ten at a time
Give em all a fair shot to see if any can rhyme
And even if one is decent, I ll still get props
I ll kick the slick lines til the last one drops
As my powerful skills are unveiled I m tippin the scales
and weighing much more than your tall tales
Stop the exaggeration perpetration observe
and make simple notation
Nobody no where no way no how
is taking me out cause I can throw so you know now
Can you feel it, I bust raps so lay off
before I steal that so called title that you gave yourself
But you really ain t jack so yo you played yourself
And now you look from a distance as you sweat my tip
You know I ll whip you swift when I flip the script

[Guru]
The music started in the hearts and drums, from another land
Played for everyone, by sons, of the motherland
Sendin out a message of peace, to everybody and
came across the oceans in chains and shame
Easing the pain, and it was without name
Until some men in New Orleans on Rampart Street
Put out the sounds, and then they gave it a beat
I m talkin bout Jelly Roll, King, and Satch
I m talkin bout the music that had no match
Yes the music, and it was born down there
We re gonna use it, so make the horn sound clear
It s jazz music... jazz music

Yo, the music that Pops, and other cats made
it stayed, cause people love when they played
To the North, it took a riverboat shuffle
To the big cities, with lots of hustle and bustle
To Chicago, and to the Apple too
This was a scene, that our forefathers knew
Go get your crew, I know they ll get into
the jazz music... jazz music

The music called jazz had the razzamatazz
It had the flavor, and a lot of pizazz
The big band beat was very neat and unique
The swing was king, it made you tap your feet
There was Benny and Duke and of course the Count Basie
The melody was smooth and yes, very taste
There was Hap, The Prez, and Lady Day and
Dizzy Bird and Miles, they were all playin
They brought it to the people of the foreign lands
Back across the oceans and the desert sands
Where it echoes in the distant sounds of drums
And it rises with the sun on days begun
This is the music, that we give tribute to
They gave it to us, that s why we give it to you
The jazz music... the jazz music

The jazz music... UH.. uh.. uh..

[Chorus: Guru]
Riot act, this is where we really prepare
Riot act, out here we show no fear
RIOT ACT, time to protect our communities
Riot act, real criminals get immunity
RIOT ACT, eye for an eye - so yo who want it?
RIOT ACT, rushin all you cowards who fronted
Riot act, let s bring the power to the people
RIOT ACT, no justice then we gotta come see you

[Verse One: Guru]
Just like a thunderous gun clap, you wonder who done that
Put you under with one rap, me and the brothers have come back
We ll lash you for tryin that, we know you been lyin cat
So now you be lyin flat, we ll read you the riot act
Whassup you little fuck, get your life right
Cause there s too much goin in the world, and shit ain t quite right
See you re just addin to the problem
Young gun, high-strung, ready to trey-eight revolve em
Knot nearly in your waist, you step up in the place
Catch one off guard, he lookin silly in the face
But hear they come with the M-16 s
They got teargas, helmets and clubs - knahmean?
It s martial law in these streets
It s like Afghanistan man, it s gettin raw in the streets
Still you demand your rights, I understand your plight
But do the knowledge if you plan to fight

[Chorus]

[Verse Two: Guru]
So realize what it is to be oppressed and afflicted
Subjected to sick shit, knowin others live different
FUCK THAT, the streets about to blow again
They forgot, so we gotta let em know again
Huh, we ll blast you for tryin that, we know you been lyin cat
So now you be lyin flat, we ll read you the riot act
Soldiers, let s show these cowards what s up
The hood ain t goin for it, let s get ours, that s what s up
Be sure to keep a balance to your fight
And do the math, figure how to use your talents in a fight
Ain t nuttin worse than a rebel without a cause
Ain t nuttin worse than a people without laws
200 million square miles under attack
Reperations for us blacks, hell yeah, they need to come with that
Who s gonna take the weight, and erase the hate
All I know is when we come through, better make some space

[Chorus]

[Verse Three: Guru]
A lot of people ain t happy you can tell by their ways
It s growin tense okay, I can smell it today
Tenement buildings house the next killers
While rich diplomats, are purchasin their next villas
But for the scrilla and power, uhh
They ll send some killers to their hood, that are iller than ours
Still niggaz settle beef, with the metal piece
And every block stays hot, like the devil s feet
Incarceration of the mind, police brutality and poverty
These are realities of mankind
And we can t win nigga, if we keep shuckin and jivin
In a minute, they gon have us duckin and divin
They got bullets for us {*automatic fire*} yeah, uh-huh
They got jail cells and graveyards, they the bullies, not us
We ll blast you for tryin that, we know you been lyin cat
So now you be lyin flat, cause this is the riot act

[Chorus]

Jag vaknar upp, tidigt pa morgon a tittar ut och ser solen skina, Jag tänker att på denna dag ska man ut pa stranden och glida. Jag öppnar min dörr, hör morgon trafiken som kör förbi på tylövägen. Dom är på väg mot hav o bad o strand, blottade kroppar...

This time I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life
The one we all dream of
But dreams just aren t enough
So I´ll be waiting for the real thing.
I know it by the feeling.
The moment when we´re meeting
Will play out like...

Ano umi dokomade mo aokatta tooku made
Ano michi dokomade mo tsuzuiteta massugu ni

Ichiban hayaku sunao ni waratta mono gachi
Ichiban suki na ano hito waratteru

Dareyori mo tooku ni itte mo koko kara mata waratte kureru?
Hitomi wo tojireba futto natsu no hi nioi

Ano...

Shoot, use your gun of life
I m not afraid to die
In your arms
Shoot, use your gun of life
Keep on watching me
Poison me

Expanding the depth of your brainpower
Ours is a better gift, not to be bragging nor lolligagging
I can see dimensions of sound and light around my mic
Transmitting lyrics like teletype
Reacting to a beat in a whisper
And like a transistor, I m...
