The Kool Herc - KRS-One

Yeah, Kool Herc!

Kool Herc, this goes out to you

KRS-One, word up, look

Temple of Hip-Hop, non-stop, we rockin you

This is what them b-boys be poppin and lockin to

Head moves, windmills, and yes uprockin to

From Mr. Wiggles, Boogaloo Shrimp, and Shabba Doo

Uh-oh, time for the truth to start boppin through

Stompin through, with somethin new man, we shockin you

This is what hip-hop'll do, perform the impossible

Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everybody OOOH

I’m philosophical, logical, very topical

These rappers man startin to look comical

But I’mma do what I’mma do and never follow

I’ma do, Amadou, even if it leads to Diallo

Victory over the streets that’s our motto

Some gotta work for it, others hit the lotto

But big up Luna, Empire, Beedo and Gato

Watch how I spit fire, it’s been a long time yo

But really it’s a short time, cause I’m already in 2020

Me and Herc yellin MAKE MONEY MONEY MONEY

Hear me sonny while it’s sunny release your rhyme

Get your money, ain’t nuttin funny, but get peace of mind
