Will.I.Am - Take It lyrics

It's not about a salary, it's all about reality I'm all in the academy, exposin all the fallacies Not who other rappers be, FEW can go on after me I know the city's trappin me, watch 'em like my calories Cats that wanna battle me, they learn of the catastrophe Don't bring your rappin back to me NEVER will you ever challenge me with what you chat to me SEALED is my anatomy, I do it lyrical mastery, KRS - OH! The time has arrived as your wake up call When I'm rhymin, I'm obliged to shake up all It be a claat, this will drop the mic and take a ball Too many part-time rappers that fake and stall When you see KRS, you will say I'm tall Cause no I don't take shorts, not at all Philosopher, not some trick in the mall {Before rock met rap, I was sicker than all} I MASTERED THIS! FEW rappers goin after Kris Thirteen albums, you do the math on this! Obviously, knowledge you have to get What the ignorant don't know, hell they'll laugh at it All my college students you know you have to get Your receipt, I mean degree, it's only facts I spit Take it, cause everyone ain't gonna make it If you're hearin my voice, you have a choice now TAKE IT! [Chorus: Will.I.Am (KRS)] Just take it, you need it We got way more in store, believe me Consume it, {inhale} breathe it (TAKE T-TAKE TAKE T-TAKE T-TAKE TAKE IT!) Just take it, you need it We got way more in store, believe me Consume it, {inhale} breathe it (TAKE T-TAKE TAKE T-TAKE T-TAKE TAKE IT!) [KRS-One] I rhyme, for the inner-city No I don't ask for no praise or no pity I got the power, you want to stay with me Further down this lyrical road, it gets tricky Stay with me! A different type of rapper emceein Seeing is believing but believing is seeing And seeing is agreein with the truth of your higher being So when I'm rhymin, I take time with the minds I'm freein The teacher is teachin, the student is seekin Them hookers be creepin instead of a book on the weekend I'm lookin to nukin 'em all in the dust They reject knowledge and without the anointing, you rust Laugh if you must, but trust that I see you naked You need what I'm givin, but you front and you fakin So like I stated, everybody ain't gonna make it But if you're hearin my voice, you have a choice now TAKE IT! [Chorus] [KRS-One] I'll keep on bringin it, singin it 'til your ears is ringin And steamin, gleamin the dream and true emceein with meaning And see men, we all fiendin for the cream and the screamin A demon got us believing screamin rhymin for NO reason! Every weekend we weaken, discipline is what we needin But we too busy freakin to understand divine speaking KRS and BBE, with Will 1X and Phife Dawg, you'll see me OH!! OH!! It's the real hip-hop KRS-One, shout out to Scott La Rock We do it from here to there, every city, every block And now it's about time we STOP!
