You don't know the difference yet So let's go up This the music you listen to As you roll up On the scene I mean It's knowledge reigns supreme I mean I cover the whole face of hip-hop Like I'm Maybelline I got a crazy team With over a million members But rappers deal with numbers MC's we deal with letters Let-ters They let you see The formation of new ideas As energy Pass that pen to me I'll freestyle above the average I'm like a alien MC Surrounded by savages (uh) It's like a jungle sometimes But I'm superior Man I got bundles of rhymes To clear this whole area You won't find me in the mainstream if you look You gotta look a pioneer in them hist'ry books Universal doesn't give me hooks Nobody writes for KRS You can read my books Man I be's my looks No makeup here I don't hang around at the top It's too fake up there Forget being in the front I'd rather sit in the rear And chill with my real people Way down here And oh yeah! I'd rather have a hundred true heads by me Then one million fake fanatics standing behind me Try me I keep it roarin' Grimy In front of the local Shop 'n Go Spitting flows is where you'll find me In the club They have to look 'Cause the crowd be jumpin' up from my classic hooks Man I'm not the crook type I'm more the book type I exist so you can see what a master looks like
