[00:04.28]Where there's no one left
[00:09.52]But the very best
[00:14.41]No MC can test
[00:20.74]Step into a world

[01:21.23]All music lovers in the place right now
[01:23.51]That never understood the way that
[01:25.56]KRS got down
[01:26.44]Yo, I'm strictly about skills and dope lyrical coastin'
[01:28.70]Relying on talent,
[01:29.93]Not marketing and promotion
[01:31.34]If a dope lyrical flow is a must
[01:32.90]You gots to go with a name you can quickly trust
[01:36.32]I'm not sayin'
[01:37.57]I'm number one, uhh
[01:38.32]I'm sorry I lie
[01:40.32]I liedI'm number one, two, three, four and five
[01:41.43]Stop wastin' your money on marketing schemes
[01:43.91]And pretty packages pushin' dreams to the beams
[01:46.41]A dope MC is a dope
[01:47.94]MC With or without a record deal, all can see
[01:51.43]And that's who

[02:48.08]For the, rapture
[02:51.22]Yeah, yeah
[02:52.26]Everybody on the mic in the party sound alike
[02:54.64]Until I recite, in black and white what's right
[02:57.04]Let me take flight, my style is tight and good
[02:59.62]Tight and good, come is it tight and good
[03:02.12]Old styles
[03:03.33]I pass dat, slow down on fast rap
[03:04.65]All in yo' ass crack, old king go blast dat
[03:07.07]Conjure to ask dat, hyper type of flashback
[03:09.67]I publish like ascap lyrics for hand clap
[03:12.16]No past rappin', youth trackin', talent lackin'
[03:14.70]MC's more worried about their financial backin'
[03:17.26]Steady packin' a gat as if something's gonna happen
[03:19.85]But it doesn't, they wind up shootin' they cousin, they buggin'
[03:22.50]I appear everywhere and nowhere at once
[03:24.86]I know my style is bumpin', even though some people front
[03:27.66]It's the God of rap, you heard of it
[03:29.89]The one that rhymes toward the sky givin' airplanes mad turbulence
[03:32.50]In rap tournaments
[03:34.00]I reign permanent
[03:35.22]Don't you think by now the number one spot
[03:37.52]I'm not concerned with it
[03:39.59]The course of rap
[03:41.18]I'm turnin' it
[03:42.38]Back to that good old fashioned way of getting cash money by earning it
[03:44.04]No bogus hocus pocus
[03:45.14]I bring back to focus
[03:46.48]Skills if you notice my position is lotus
[03:47.80]Now quote this
[03:49.10]MC's are just hopeless
[03:50.22]Thinkin' record sales make them the dopest
[03:52.99]Yes yes y'all, ya don't stop
[03:55.15]KRS-One, rock on
[03:57.74]Yes yes y'all, ya don't stop
[04:00.36]KRS-One, rock on
[04:02.95]Step into a world
[04:06.90]Where there's no one left
[04:11.71]But the very best
[04:16.85]No MC can test
[04:23.62]Step into a world
[04:26.93]where hip-hop is me
[04:31.93]Where MC's and
[04:36.06]DJ'sBuild up their skills as they play every day
