Yeah
|
Y'know when advice is in your face, you need to heed that
|
Word, you need to read that
|
Y'know, I put this lil' joint together real quick
|
You know what it's called?
|
It's called - NOW YOU'RE FUCKED!
|
That's right, listen
|
|
[Verse One]
|
Wasn't you the type to mimic what you saw on TV?
|
Wasn't you the type to mimic what you heard on CD?
|
You never wanted to work you wanted everything easy
|
You heard KRS and you said, "That's preachy!"
|
A wise young man says, "Father - teach me"
|
A foolish young man wants to live life freaky
|
Oh yes, Knowledge does Reign Supremely
|
When I said it eighty-nine you didn't believe me
|
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. that's right
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. life is over, finished, done
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. better heed that, read that
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED!
|
|
[Verse Two]
|
Listen - back in the days on the Boulevard of Linden
|
BROOKLYN! Kris was a, metaphysician
|
LOOKIN! For better ways to live without bein
|
TOOKEN! We started our own management and
|
BOOKIN! Makin moves with them live cats on
|
FULTON! I can't even 'member all the dough that we
|
TOOK IN! But you was lookin down on us
|
Cause platinum never astounded us, so
|
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. word, like that
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. ha, you shoulda heed that, you better
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. y'all was chasin the radio, remember that?
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. what they givin you back now?
|
|
[Verse Three]
|
Back when we was all singin "Monie in the Middle"
|
You wanted to wiggle, jiggle in a tight skirt and giggle
|
Even when outside was brittle, you still had on little
|
And KRS warned that you'll get played like a fiddle
|
Now you havin cravings for pickles cause you pregnant
|
and don't know where the dad went and you
|
poppin them drugs like Skittles
|
When the baby is born it's little and sick
|
But it's no riddle, you was movin too quick, huh
|
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. word, look at this
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. you shoulda stayed
|
home and read a book
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. literally, symbolically
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED!
|
|
[Verse Four]
|
When advice is in your life you need to take it
|
Cause frankly, everybody ain't gonna make it
|
Back in the days we, showed 'em the way
|
I put it there in the music but you weren't amazed
|
You would criticize, debate, and basically hate
|
But let it be known I wanted everyone to be great
|
But you would diss and not even try to do better
|
When we was at the U.N. you said "whatever"
|
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. word
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. we movin ahead,
|
you still in the same spot
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. 'member all that back talk, all that?
|
NOW YOU'RE FUCKED! .. takin over
|
