Gang Starr - Knowledge lyrics

rate me

[guru]

Take your timerecline and make your mind up

I feel fineso I'm gonna wind up

Here's the pitchcheck the switchnow watch me

Hit you right to thiswhile I pursue this

Desireto get youon up to step to

Rhythms and rhymescause I respect you

Unless you're a biting onea non-writing one

Reciting some of my linesalthough you are blind

You'll see my shadowrather my silhouette

But I'll be glad thoughknowin your pillow's wet

And that you're upsetcause you thought you brought

The answer -- to this dilemma in rap but I'll vamp you with

Knowledge knowledge knowledge (echoes)

[damo d-ski]

Pure is my thoughtmy spirit is my heart

I shall embark to spark my fine art

Of oratory wisdomemcees I quiz them

On terms and techniquesthen I'll wreck each with speech

I win the science fairso you don't you try and scare

Me with your threats andidle atrocities

I am the best and yo I am your boss at these

Methods and forms ofcausin swarms of fans

Just to dancelike thunder storms of

What it must take tocrush you or break you

If I dislike youI may not hate you

It's just that you sound weak whenyou think you're speakin

Knowledge knowledge knowledge (echoes)

[guru]

The rhymes are peaceful like yogaand yo I know the

Time must be mineso I'm gonna throw the

Whole kit n kaboodle inwhile you sit doodlin

Scribblinnow wipe your mouth cause it's dribblin

That's nastyso how you gonna get past me?

Whatcha babblin punk? I have to put a rattle in

Your handand then I'll serve you like an infant

Put a bib on youand feed you in-stan-taneously

Rhymes that'll befamous from me

The keith double-ecause you're a faker

And I will take the mic from you and make the

Brothers and sisters unitewhile we relate the

Knowledge knowledge knowledge (echoes)

[damo d-ski]

I'm glowin with intensitycause I've been sent to g

Off as your bossbecause you lack identity

You're quite immature andyou sound very boring

Like a raft I'll bring you backup onto the shore and

Give you time to dry outwhile I just try out

My hunch that with one punchyo I could put that eye out

But violenceis never my first choice

I use my voice to make you rejoice

In agreement with our programcause there is no man

Who can give you more of thisand you can be sure of this

Fact that I'm exactcause I got it down pat

We are scholars risinwe're exercisin our

Knowledge knowledge knowledge (echoes)
