KRS-One - Never Give Up lyrics



[KRS-One]

Gather 'round, gather 'round, ha

Metaphysical style, spiritual style, the ORIGINAL style, ha

Yes.. let's do it

[Chorus]

- you can never give up, you should never give up

- you can never give up, we can never give up

- you can never give up, you can never give up

- you should never give up, we can never give up, you can never give up

[KRS-One]

Yeah, yeah

Y'all don't really know about the KRS rap

Y'all don't really about why we stay trapped

Y'all don't really know hip-hop ain't rap

But let me tell you how we can get it all back

First realize givin up is wack

Say to yourself I can never be wack

Then realize that we must go back

And the reason you can't seem to get on track

is you, keep, buying, HOES, simple and plain

You, keep, buying, HOES, all y'all know my name

And how I get down and move around

I've already been to the proving ground

In conscious rap, who rule the sound

The question is are you down?

[Chorus] w/ minor variations

[KRS-One]

Look - KRS-One, I've learned already

Everything they doin is temporary

No matter how big you live

You still the creation of a music executive

And when you get old no matter what you did

They throw you away and they pimp your kid

Yeah kids, on the TV whylin

You know why we got racial profilin?

Cause you, keep, buying, HOES, simple and plain

You, keep, buying, HOES, all y'all know my name

So there in the future we'll look back

And then we will see we were under attack

But it'll be too late, the loss'll be too great

You'll see, just wait!

[Chorus] w/ minor variations

[KRS-One]

C'mon, c'mon, yeah c'mon

You see how they shuttin down KRS-One

Cause I'm not sexy, thuggin or dumb

Ask yourself -

- why they only promotin criminal activity and nothin else?

On the videos and on the radio

Teachin our kids which way to go

And the way that they tell our kids to go

If you listen, heads right straight to prison

While you, keep, buying, HOES, simple and plain

You, keep, buying, HOES, y'all better peep the game

You got to release that temptation

Get a brand new affirmation

Your life is what you make 'em

Peace, salaam alaikum

[Chorus] w/ minor variations
