Breath Control II

[KRS-One]

Hah, giddyap!

Ha ha ha hah..

Another dope dope dope style

by the massive BDP crew

Of course, I will now present to you

a different view, for 1990

Of course, eighty-nine is behind me

Check it out

It's called breath control, breath control, breath controlstylee

Breath control a-lone, breath control A-LONE

Breath control, breath control, breath control stylee

Breath control a-lone..

It's KRS-One, yes the t'cha

I wear Clarks and only Nike sneaker

In your speaker, is the new style

Dedicated to the intelligent child

In the front row, or behind me

We're gonna pull somebody file for the 90's

You want lyrics? We come correct

BDP, only movin with respect

The other MC's, they can't believe me

A when I rhyme it sound just like a CD

We don't lip-sync, we go all live

On stage, I bring about four or five

That's D-Nice, Sydney, and Melodie

And myself, Harmony, and Willie D

We come humble, we just grumble

while other MC's crew just crumble

They want DANCERS, they want lighting

They want effects, to make them look exciting

But it's frightening, cause without that

The whole crew, is whick whick whick whack

BDP comes, with the cheapest

and perform miracles like Jesus

The total respect, we achieve it

And the big head-liner can't believe it

It's called breath control, breath control, breath controlstylee

Breath control a-lone, breath control A-LONE

Breath control, breath control, breath control stylee

Breath control a-lone.. get ready for the break..

Ha ha ha ha ha hah..

Well the styles I, usually dish out

are so dope that you don't wanna miss out

We got PAGES, of the dope stuff

So in the record store, you can't pass by us

GET the album, HEAR THE MUSIC

And hold on so you just don't lose it

as a reference, for any MC

that wanna test, K-R-S, O-N-E

Cause I've been watchin, these other rap groups

They walk around like they're some kinda big soup

You can't touch them, you only see them

in a arena or big coliseum

So when you watch them, for a second

Them sound NUTTIN like they do on record

Them sound cheesy, them sound wheezy

For twenty dollars boy you know them never please me

So I see this, and prevent this

It's like goin for a checkup at the dentist

Cause when you come to a BDP performance

The microphone, had better have endurance

Cause we'll check it, and then wreck it

And then the soundman has got to accept it

Because it's breath control, breath control, breath controlstylee

Breath control a-lone, breath control A-LONE

Breath control, breath control, breath control stylee

Breath control a-lone.. take it out..
