KRS One

KRS One - Generique Assault lyrics

[Verse 1]

Yeah... KRS-One bout to wreck the joint

I was seen openin up at the edge of Detroit

where the cops go beyond the laws

where enemies work together by putting they shit on pause

So what does it mean, Assault on Precinct 13?

You are bout to see just what the dirt bring

It's working, that force, I have been searching

Like Lawrence Fishburne when it's time to hurt things

Ethan Hawke, man he face all that

I hold the mic like Ja held the baseball bat

I stay ahead, like a baseball cap

The ways of the world, Kris don't chase all that

[Chorus]

We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up

Watch me back up the truck

You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up

So crooked cops you backin me up?

We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up

Watch me back up the truck

You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up

So crooked cops you backin me up?

[Verse 2]

Well as I walk through the street, my spirit will speak

to those I meet and great from week to week

I am not my handsome beat. I command the speak

As the observer inside the physique

Many rappers try to compete, of course

But they got smashed and trashed in the streets and tossed

Sometimes I think we all just lost

We just flashin and flossin the disasterous cause

We don't even know the one-ness of the only force

Instead of a golden calf, we got a platinum horse

But what did Moses do with the golden calf?

Threw the log at it and it ended in a blast

Master, get on them quick, get on them faster

In the background you frontin, cuz there's nothing but laughter

I tag church like the shirt king

Turn up the track for Assault on Precinct 13

[Chorus]

We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up

Watch me back up the truck

You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up

So crooked cops you backin me up?

We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up

Watch me back up the truck

You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up

So crooked cops you backin me up?

[Verse 3]

Wow, what an ending. What a conclusion

They thought they was winning, but they really was losin

He though he was sinnin, but he really was provin

that leadership keeps it moving, steady cruising

Guns up, funds up, from sun up to sun up to sun up

Buck buck buck! Yo, duck duck

We run up, two down, one up

Dope MCs see me and get butterflies in they stomach

Others can't speak, they just shut up

KRS on the come up, liftin Big Pun up. Let me sum up

Dope MCs, wack MCs, thin MCs, fat MCs, commercial MCs, they can't all

get done up

Raise the drum up, breath for breath, I'll rip your lung up

On my trophy wall, I'm nailing your tongue up

KRS-One, you know what it means

Turn up the track for Assault on Precinct 13

[Chorus]

We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up

Watch me back up the truck

You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up

So crooked cops you backin me up?

We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up

Watch me back up the truck

You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up

So crooked cops you backin me up?

[Verse 4]

We gotta start trusting each other right now if we gonna make it

through this night

From Criminal Minded to Spiritual Minded, and even beyond and behind

it, never be afraid to fight

or be the lazy type. Me, I'm the crazy type

I get them clubs so crazy hype

I throw them glasses on that them ladies like

And years later, rock what they babies like

I blaze the light, there me be 8,000,000 ways to die

but there's 16,000,000 ways to fight

So wherever you are... in the crib or your car, in your tank too

KRS-One would like to thank you, right

That's why KRS on the mic

Wishin you peace for the rest of the night

Cuz at the end of the film, you'll see what it mean

Turn up the track for Assault on Precinct 13!

Fresh (fresh)... For 2005... You suucckkkkaaaa
