作词 : KRS One
Jack Of Spades - Boogie Down Productions
Again we start  let me say my part
About the only guy who has some heart
It took some time for the heart to come
But it's here  and everybodys in fear
Crashin through the door of that whore
Bringin a end to this gold chain war
What you saw  krs-one is now seeing
Another fly human being
Making  no excuses for the losers
Chain-snatchers  pimps  drug abusers
You don't like it but you gotta keep pushin
Until somebody starts mushin
All these suckers  claimin to rule
The environment
nah man  I ain't buyin it)
You seem to think that everybody
Can be taught
That everyone else can be bought
But  you took a short  cause one
Guy hasnt been paid
He is the jack of spades
He's a  calm kind of guy  courageous
And loyal
But don't let the temper boil
Cause just like a pot when the whistle blows
that's right boy  anything goes )
The crime is commited and he's right
On your tail
There's no bail  not thinkin bout jail
All the ends  are justified by the means
When jacks on the scene
Track the movement  don't lose it
Cause if he come through the back
He attacks
Crack  cocaine  cops  and more fiends
Who all get the same in the heat of
This gold chain game
Here is the aim
Destroy all the stereotypes  hypes
And crack pipes
We don't like  criminals  and crime
But we don't pay it any mind
So here comes kung-fu  joe  and fly guy
Slade  hammer  and slammer
I  am a  renegade teacher and scholar
If you ain't up on it you gotta
Fall to the back of the line
Hear this rhyme  cause ima say it
One more time
It's jacks theme song that krs made
It's called the jack of spades
You know  the jack of spades is now
Down with the bdp posse
If you wanna see more  just watch me
Man  do what I do  throw your hands
In the air
And scream it out  ohh yeah ohh yeahhh
One more time  ohh yeahhh
flash the rhyme )
Cool  guy  loud and quiet
If your heads in the way  hell fly it
Don't try it  cause jack of spades doesnt buy it
He's a one man riot
Cleanin the community  of all it's debris
The c-r-i-m-e
The road was long and scary and
Some didn't make it
The average guy couldnt take it
But jack  is not  the average guy
He took a piece of the pie and bit it
Got with it  for his brother he did it
So you gotta admit it
This is a martyr  a soldier  a hero
Why   because he started from zero
In this battle he clearly understands
Their power
They're payin people by the hour
To sell  to lie  to try  to stand up and deny
They are gettin everybody high
High on a cable  cash under the table
Currency is how they're able
To buy the cops and props and keep
The law paid
But here comes the jack of spades
Break it down
Fresh   for jack of spades  you suckers
Ha ha ha ha ha ha hah
