[ti:You Know My Steez] [ar:Gang Starr] [al:Moment Of Truth] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]You Know My Steez (Explicit) - Gangstarr [00:00.18]Written by：Keith Elam [00:00.37]That makes me know that we we we we're doing [00:02.91]We had the right idea in the beginning [00:04.75]And and we just need to maintain our focus and elevate [00:07.30]We what we do we update our formulas [00:10.27]We have certain formulas but we update them oh right [00:12.71]With the times and everything you know [00:14.78]And and so you know [00:16.29]The rhyme style is elevated [00:17.74]The style of beats is elevated [00:19.26]But it's still Guru and Premier [00:21.68] [00:22.21]And it's always a message involved [00:24.71] [00:25.38]The real hip-hop [00:29.09]MC and DJ from your own mind you know [00:34.22]I I guess right now we should start the show [00:36.93]Who's the suspicious character strapped with the sounds profound [00:39.00] [00:39.85]Similar to rounds spit by Derringers [00:42.15]You're in the Terrordome like my man Chuck D said [00:44.80]It's time to dethrone you clones and all you knuckleheads [00:47.63]Cause MC's have used up extended warranties [00:50.33]While real MC's and DJ's are a minority [00:53.19]But right about now I use my authority [00:55.69]Cause I'm like the Wizard and you look lost like Dorothy [00:58.39]The horror be when I return for my real people [01:01.35]Words that split wigs hitting like some double Desert Eagles [01:03.83]Sporting caps pulled low and baggy slacks [01:06.47]Subtracting all the rappers who lack over Premier's tracks [01:08.72] [01:09.47]Severe facts have brought this rap game to near collapse [01:12.16]So as I have in the past I whup a** [01:14.37]Dropping lyrics that be hotter than sex and candlewax [01:17.04]And one-dimensional MC's can't handle that [01:19.68]While the world's revolving on its axis [01:22.31]I come with mad love and plus the illest warlike tactics [01:25.35]The wilderness is filled with this so many people [01:27.65]Searching for false lift I'm here with the skills you've missed [01:30.85]The rejected stone is now the cornerstone [01:33.20]Sort of like the master builder when I make my way home [01:35.80]You know my steez [01:37.97] [01:38.98]You know my steez [01:41.08]Let them know do your thing you all keep it live [01:44.90]To the beat you all [01:46.61]The beat is sinister Primo makes you relax [01:48.88]I'm like the minister when I am lacing the wax [01:51.73]I be bringing salvation through the way that I rap [01:54.39]And you know and I know I'm nice like that [01:56.97]Work through worldly problems I got the healing power [01:59.61]When the mic's within my reach I'm feeling more power [02:02.18]Stealing at least three minutes of every rap radio hour [02:05.01]It's often easier for one to give advice [02:07.66]Than it is for a person to run one's own life [02:10.60]That's why I can't be caught up in all the hype [02:13.19]I keep my soul tight and let these lines takes flight [02:15.63]The apparatus gets blessed and suckers get put to rest [02:18.48]No more of the unpure I got the cure for this mess [02:21.58]The wackness is spreading like the plague [02:23.52]MC's lucked up and got paid but still can't make the f**king grade [02:26.63]How many times are wanna be gonna lie [02:29.02]You they must wanna fry they can't touch the knowledge I personify [02:31.95] [02:32.86]I travel through the darkness carrying my torch [02:35.38]The illest soldier when I'm holding down the fort [02:37.98]You know my steez [02:39.73]Let them know do your things y'all keep it live [02:42.90]You know my steez [02:44.47]Let them know do your thing y'all keep it live [02:48.26]You know my steez [02:49.70]Let them know do your thing y'all keep it live [02:53.61]You know my steez [02:55.30]Let them know do your thing y'all keep it live [02:59.35] [02:59.99]The mic on the microphone you know that [03:02.52]I'm one of the best yet [03:03.80]Some punks ain't paid all of their debts yet [03:06.48]Trying to be fly riding high on the jet-set [03:09.23]With juvenile rhymes making fake-a** death threats [03:11.71]Big deal like En Vogue here's something you can feel [03:14.72]Styles more tangible and image more real [03:16.92]For some time now I've held the scrolls and manuscripts [03:19.44]When it's time to go all out you be like Damn he flipped [03:22.46]Now I'm sick fed up with the bullshit [03:24.63]Got the lyrical full clip giving you a verbal asswhip [03:27.60]Don't trip it's the gifted prolific one [03:30.23]Known as Bald Head Slick [03:31.50]Why is the press all on my di-dick [03:33.23]My style be wilder than a kamikaze pilot [03:35.72]Don't try it I'm about to start more than a fragging riot [03:38.36]Styles unsurpassable and nuccas that's suck as you [03:42.20]Them motherf**kers are harrassable [03:43.55]For I be speaking from my parables and carry you beyond [03:47.10]The mic's either a magic wand [03:48.88]Or it gets tragic like the havoc of a nuclear bomb [03:51.71]Then I grab your palm no pulse you're gone [03:53.63] [03:54.20]And if you thought we'd lose [03:55.47]Our niche in this rap sh*t you way wrong [03:57.28]I stay up I stay on shine bright like neon [04:00.05]Your song's pathetic synthetic like Rayon [04:02.54]Fat beats they play on want d**e rhymes put me on [04:05.03]Word is bond you know my steez
