KRS-One - The Mind Lyrics
[Chorus 1: x2]
First thing we must do is make up our - MIND
Then we must go and really clear our - MIND
Erase the doubt and the fear from our - MIND
Share our - MIND, speak our - MIND
Stand up brother, stand up sister
I told y'all before, love is gonna get'cha
Lovin that money, lovin that liquor
Lovin that sex without respect you gets no bigger
I ain't got time to chill, only got time to build
You find that in those with skills
This a real MC, of the highest degree
With no video, my show they dyin to see
Not whether I'm buyin 'em three
When you watch television just keep sayin they lyin to me
I'm not desperate for money, maybe you are, but listen
[Chorus 2: x2]
First thing we gon' do is make up our - MIND
Then we gon' go, and we gon' clear our - MIND
Erase the doubt and the fear from our - MIND
Share our - MIND, speak our - MIND
Don't you think it's time we thought about the future?
Whether our children they gonna be winners or losers?
Don't you think it's time to advance the rhyme we spit?
Whether you know it or not, you deep in politics
All inside of it, in fact YOU the issue
Don't let this government diss you!
They really do not want you to vote
They really do not want you to hope
They really want you sniffin they coke
You look around yo we missin the boat
I coulda wrote about ANYTHING to get on, but this what I wrote
And what I'm writin, is guaranteed to enlighten
Like Dr. Cornel West, Michael Eric Dyson
This is how we do it today, enough of the crime talk
KRS got somethin new to say
Rise up, and put aside childish things
This is the message we bring; listen
[Chorus 2]
Last verse, KRS, blast first
Ignorance is bad, but temptation that's worse
They hide they purse, cause of the way we spit the verse
No one ever told 'em that the style's rehearsed
And even if they did, it wouldn't be new to they mind
Cause all day rappers confess to doin these crimes
So when the cops see you, they're not thinkin about me
They thinkin about takin you out of society
Keep it right, don't lie to me
You think it's too much preachin teachin?
Huh, well fine, we'll see
When you're locked up in J.D.C., or even prison
The truth shall set you free, just listen
You want health, and really that's about prevention
You want love, real love, and not depression
You want awareness, which come from discipline and will
You want wealth, which come from skills
When you really ready to talk, let's build
You ain't gotta be a scholar to know the next 4 years gonna be ill
I believe you already know the drill, don't lie
don't steal, seek peace and don't kill
[Chorus 1]

I may just listen to this once a day. ☻🖤
Dre and KRS being 54 years. damn, this actually made me feel young instead of feeling old.
what a way to end it absolute beauty
great remix of out for fame
I REMEMBER HEARING A MIXTAPE/WHITE LABEL VERSION; DIFFERENT BEAT/LYRICS BEFORE THE ONE ON THE 'KRS ONE' 1995 ALBUM..AND THAT WAS PROBABLY LATE 94 EARLY 95..
Another banger by the Teacha!
I remember back in 95 hiphop was so fire. I mean we had so so much going on in hiphop but I remember artist comin up from all over the country. I was not a huge KRS1 fan, but I always respected what he did. And then he dropped MC's act like the Don't Know...Fire. This album is a testament to what hip hop is supposed to be and what it once was. Buildin, who remember hip hop was all about building, and representing. show and prove. Nuff respect to KRS1 holdin hiphop down to this day. ONE.
THE LEGEND KEEPS GOIN!!!
Mature hip hop or rap.. 😎🤓👨🏿🌾👨🏿✈️🙅🏿♂️🙅🏾♀️
Excellence
Oh wau! This was even more powerfull and spilling with knowlidge. Thanks fo the godz fo this one big mind play! Becouse we shuld know how to play it and Krs is just giving it to us. Only thing u have to do is listen. Over come yor mind and u can make this happen. Hip Hop is from heaven and you are the tool that can do anything so lets manifest some light to our heartz?!?
