《I’m Still #1》歌词

[00:00:00] I'm Still #1 - Boogie Down Productions

[00:00:11] D J Doc you know he's down with us

[00:00:13] D-Square he's down with us

[00:00:16] Keyboard Money Mike is down with us

[00:00:18] I C U you know he's down with us

[00:00:21] D-Nice and McBoo they're down with us

[00:00:24] Ms Melodie she's down with us

[00:00:26] Just-Ice and DMX they're down with us

[00:00:29] My manager Moe he's down with us

[00:00:32] Castle-D boy he's down with us

[00:00:34] D J Red Alert he's down with us

[00:00:37] Robocop boy he's down with us

[00:00:39] Makin' funky music is a must

[00:00:42] I'm number one

[00:00:53] People still takin' rappin' for a joke

[00:00:55] A passing hope or a phase with a rope

[00:00:58] Sometimes I choke and try to believe

[00:01:00] When I get challenged by a million MCs

[00:01:03] I try to tell them "We're all in this together "

[00:01:05] My album was raw because no-one would ever

[00:01:08] Think like I think and do what I do

[00:01:11] I stole the show and then I leave without a clue

[00:01:14] What do you think makes up a KRS

[00:01:16] Concisive teaching or very clear speaking

[00:01:19] Ridiculous bass aggravating treble

[00:01:21] Rebel renegade must stay paid

[00:01:24] Not by financial aid but a raid of hits

[00:01:28] Causing me to take long trips

[00:01:30] I'm the original teacher of this type of style

[00:01:33] Rockin' off-beat with a smile

[00:01:35] Or smirk or chuckle yes some are not up to

[00:01:38] BDP Posse so I love to

[00:01:40] Step in the jam and slam

[00:01:43] I'm not Superman because anybody can

[00:01:45] Or should be able to rock off turntables

[00:01:47] Grab the mic plug it in and begin

[00:01:51] But here's where the problem starts no heart

[00:01:53] Because of that a lot of groups fell apart

[00:01:56] Rap is still an art and no-one's from the Old School

[00:01:59] Cuz Rap is still a brand-new tool

[00:02:02] I say no-one's from the Old School cuz Rap on a whole

[00:02:05] Isn't even twenty years old

[00:02:06] Fifty years down the line you can start this

[00:02:10] Cuz we'll be the Old School artists

[00:02:12] And even in that time I'll say a rhyme

[00:02:14] A brand-new style ruthless and wild

[00:02:17] Runnin' around spendin' money havin' fun

[00:02:19] Cuz even then I'm still number one

[00:02:33] Blastmaster KRS-One of course

[00:02:35] Comes to express with style the lost

[00:02:38] Ways of rhyming old and new past and present

[00:02:42] Knock knock who is it

[00:02:43] A brand-new style hup time to change

[00:02:46] People talk about me when they see me on stage

[00:02:49] Live in action guaranteed raw

[00:02:51] I hang with the rich and I work for the poor

[00:02:54] Now tomorrow you can say you saw

[00:02:57] KRS-One stompin' once more

[00:02:59] I play by ear I love to steer

[00:03:02] The Alfa Romeo from here to there

[00:03:04] I grab the beer but not in the ride

[00:03:07] Cuz I'm not stupid I don't drink and drive

[00:03:10] I'm not a beginner amateur or local

[00:03:12] My album is sellin' because of my vocals

[00:03:16] You know what you need to learn

[00:03:18] Old School artists don't always burn

[00:03:20] You're just another rapper who's had his turn

[00:03:23] Now it's my turn and I am concerned

[00:03:25] About idiots posing as kings

[00:03:28] What are we here to rule

[00:03:29] I thought we were supposed to sing

[00:03:30] And if we oughta sing then let us begin to teach

[00:03:33] Many of you are educated open your mouth and speak

[00:03:35] KRS-One is something like a total renegade

[00:03:38] Except I don't steal I rhyme to get paid

[00:03:41] Airplanes flyin' overseas people dyin'

[00:03:45] Politicians lyin' I'm tryin'

[00:03:47] Not to escape but hit the problem head-on

[00:03:49] By bringin' out the truth in a song

[00:03:52] So BDP short for Boogie Down Productions

[00:03:54] Made a little noise cuz the crew was sayin' somethin'

[00:03:57] People have the nerve to take me for a gangster

[00:04:00] An ignorant one something closer to a prankster

[00:04:02] Doin' petty crimes goin' straight to penitentiary

[00:04:04] But in a scale of crime that's really elementary

[00:04:08] This beat is now compelling me to explain in silence

[00:04:11] Why my last jam was so violent

[00:04:13] It's simple: BDP will teach reality

[00:04:15] No beatin' around the bush straight up

[00:04:17] Just like The P Is Free

[00:04:19] So now you know a poet's job is never done

[00:04:21] But I'm never overworked cuz I'm still number one

[00:04:29] Kool Moe Dee he's down with us

[00:04:31] Eric B and Rakim they're down with us

[00:04:34] Stetsasonic they're down with us

[00:04:37] Dana Dane he's down with us

[00:04:39] Sleeping Bag Records they're down with us

[00:04:42] My lawyer Jay he's down with us

[00:04:45] Jive/RCA is down with us

[00:04:47] Makin' funky music is a must

[00:04:50] I'm number one
