Problemz

Yeah man, yo Marla what's up
 Yeah, Inebriated Beats, big up Boston, the whole Boston
 Edo.G what's up man? I got you
 We gon' bounce this now, can I start? Can I start?
 Here we go
 I'm the newest and the truest MC on the mic
 I wrote over 500 songs, pick what you like
 It ain't easy bein me, by day or night
 But it's easy bein free to recite what you like
 Hip-Hop is my inalienable right
 When it comes to emceeing KRS is a whole different type
 Now go get it right, did I flow spit it tight
 In a fight I was the type to go get a pipe
 Bink! bink! bink! bink! Movin 'em back
 Bink! That's the sound of an aluminum bat
 But it seems they new to these facts
 Which means they new to the tracks
 Which means they do hold us back
 Too new to know all that but still runnin they trap
 Do the math, radio gets a 20 record a week stream
 But only three are ever seen
 What happens to the other 17?
 It's a problem, problem
 Problem in hip-hop today
 We gotta solve it
 Too many players and not enough crime
 When they finally wake up they woulda ran out of time
 They can't see today how they effect tomorrow
 Too afraid to follow, cause they trust is hollow
 Because according to the laws they'll harp some sorrow
 Yo, "Victory Over the Streets" that's our motto
 But if people ain't got no vision, that's a problem
 Problem in hip-hop today
 We gotta solve it
 People say, "Kris why you teach so much?
 Why you preach so much? Why you speak and such?
 Why you so bent on reachin each of us?"
 I reply because you eatin with us
 In the future our children will be meetin with us
 Have a seat then with us and start speakin with us
 They'll be critiquin us to be sure they believe in us
 We don't need a problem
 Problem in hip-hop today
 We gotta fix it
 We live non-toxic, we teach that hip-hop is
 The transformation of all subjects and objects
 Retrain your optics, to reinterpret the topics
 We gotta stop treatin hip-hop like a product
 And more of a strategyI got graphs, charts
 Sacred textbooks, these cats can't battle me
 But they try, and why? Cause that's a problem
 Problem in hip-hop today
 We gotta fix that
 These cats need history to get with me
 But hip-hop's history's a mystery
 So how they gonna find out, trial and error
 We can make one the example for all to get better
 Inform, KRS is not the norm
 I go from hot to warm to cold to hot
 But hip-hop's history many forgot
 And that's a Problem
 Problem in hip-hop today
 We gotta solve that
 Problem problem in hip-hop today
 We gotta fix that
