Is y'all ready for Twenty-0-7, it's now another drought Everyone's a killer, wow we bugging out Since 86 showing the crowd what I'm about And they still want to know when the album coming out Ask the teenagers, OG's and Ask the kids What they definition of Classic is Timeless, cause age don't count in the booth And your flow stays submerged in the fountain of youth And no doubt the truth I'm off the meters Everybody co-signing even non-believers I came in the door, became one of y'alls leaders In the fresh pair of Air Force One sneakers Uptown we call 'em uppies when they on divas Probably worn when KRS One teaches Nas, made you look, before the haters I bet you Kan had 'em on when he walked with Jesus This is classic [Chorus] Classic, better than I've ever been Talent, If it's classic it's gonna last forever than I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been Classic Better than I've ever been [Kanye West] Can't buy this, super flyness, like a shyness, your highness It's performing, look how long the line is That's what happens when you make shit that's timeless That's what happens these rappers is the pioneers What do it take to be a legend like Nas is? That's so novice, I'm so polished, I got a right to be a little bit snobbish I did a little bit of college, semesters it took 2 like Rob Base To let me figure out this wasn't my place, the beat slowed til you listened to my pace Cause I be killing shit, but that's evident, and y'all feeling it, but I expected it If it's classic it's gonna last forever than I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been [Chorus] [Nas] Perseverance, see the fake hustler rapper to them it hurts to hear this Oh you went platinum, yeah that's nice, now let me see you do the same thing twice New times, 4 times, then been a couple of more times, please your amateur night is show time It's one life to live so live it the best you can, the world could use one less man Not enough air, not enough car factories to manufacture new vehicles sedans and vans When they do make the whip you like ya chips ain't right, By the time you could afford it the car ain't important In the streets silent, it's just I and, cops keep firing in my environment Leaving your slum when they drive home far from the hood brothers they eager to jump on I like to be the wall that they post up on, I like to see them fall, guilty for doing wrong I'm classic like the Air Ones, the Hustler shoe, that's what I'm accustomed to [Chorus] [KRS One] How many y'all got criminal minded you you you y'all don't be blinded Me I got no jewels on my neck, why, I don't need 'em I got your respect KRS 1 20 years I rock I do it for JMJ and Scott LaRock, this hip hop And we's a nation, don?t you want to hear more KRS on your radio station? Instead of broadcasting how we smoking trees, on the radio we need to hear more local MC's Where you at? Come on where you at? This is the difference between MC'ing and rap Rappers spit rhymes that are mostly illegal, MC's spit rhymes to uplift they people Peace, love, unity, and having fun, these are the lyrics of KRS One
