featuring Cold Crush Brothers

Intro/Chorus:

[Krs]

Let's Do It!

[Cold Crush]

When I say how then you say ho

and if somebody say thug then you say so

cuz theres hell below and you aint tryin to go

so get ready for the throw down

Headz catch wreck and bums get done

B.D.P. Cold Crush & Krs One

nowhere to hide nowhere to run

so get ready for the throw down

Verse 1

[Krs]

Throw down low down

Mc's get throw down

I mastered the sentence, paragraph & pronouns

I think you oughta go down

you cant stand the blow of toe to toe now!

that you heard all the rap criminals

skills minimal, dispicable,

check out the rhyme original

indivisible justice for all

before ya learned to walk, you gots ta learn to crawl

before ya learned to crawl, you gots to be born

now before you were born, your folks had to get it on

The point to the matter comin from the blastmaster

is hip hop culture might be headed for disaster

All these wack rappers don't know the past data

They act like hip hop history doesn't matter

So when you see Krs One brace the stage

the difference that you see, has to do wit my age

Fresh in 74....Fresh in 75

Fresh in 76 when Mc's rocked live to cassette

Fresh in 77 don't forget

Fresh in 78 on a turntable set

Fresh in 79

Fresh in 80 I was grandmaster G wit my man double T

Fresh in 81

Fresh in 82 when DJ Mad Mike off of Church Avenue in the B-K

BROOKLYN-FLATBUSH!!!...when B-K MC's got mushed!

Fresh in 83, 84 and 85 when I moved back to the B-X and got live

Fresh in 86......Fresh in 87

Fresh in 88 after Scott went to
