[Verse 1]
|
Yeah... KRS-One bout to wreck the joint
|
I was seen openin up at the edge of Detroit
|
where the cops go beyond the laws
|
where enemies work together by putting they shit on pause
|
So what does it mean, Assault on Precinct 13?
|
You are bout to see just what the dirt bring
|
It's working, that force, I have been searching
|
Like Lawrence Fishburne when it's time to hurt things
|
Ethan Hawke, man he face all that
|
I hold the mic like Ja held the baseball bat
|
I stay ahead, like a baseball cap
|
The ways of the world, Kris don't chase all that
|
|
[Chorus]
|
We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up
|
Watch me back up the truck
|
You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up
|
So crooked cops you backin me up?
|
We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up
|
Watch me back up the truck
|
You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up
|
So crooked cops you backin me up?
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
Well as I walk through the street, my spirit will speak
|
to those I meet and great from week to week
|
I am not my handsome beat. I command the speak
|
As the observer inside the physique
|
Many rappers try to compete, of course
|
But they got smashed and trashed in the streets and tossed
|
Sometimes I think we all just lost
|
We just flashin and flossin the disasterous cause
|
We don't even know the one-ness of the only force
|
Instead of a golden calf, we got a platinum horse
|
But what did Moses do with the golden calf?
|
Threw the log at it and it ended in a blast
|
Master, get on them quick, get on them faster
|
In the background you frontin, cuz there's nothing but laughter
|
I tag church like the shirt king
|
Turn up the track for Assault on Precinct 13
|
|
[Chorus]
|
We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up
|
Watch me back up the truck
|
You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up
|
So crooked cops you backin me up?
|
We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up
|
Watch me back up the truck
|
You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up
|
So crooked cops you backin me up?
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
Wow, what an ending. What a conclusion
|
They thought they was winning, but they really was losin
|
He though he was sinnin, but he really was provin
|
that leadership keeps it moving, steady cruising
|
Guns up, funds up, from sun up to sun up to sun up
|
Buck buck buck! Yo, duck duck
|
We run up, two down, one up
|
Dope MCs see me and get butterflies in they stomach
|
Others can't speak, they just shut up
|
KRS on the come up, liftin Big Pun up. Let me sum up
|
Dope MCs, wack MCs, thin MCs, fat MCs, commercial MCs, they can't all
|
get done up
|
Raise the drum up, breath for breath, I'll rip your lung up
|
On my trophy wall, I'm nailing your tongue up
|
KRS-One, you know what it means
|
Turn up the track for Assault on Precinct 13
|
|
[Chorus]
|
We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up
|
Watch me back up the truck
|
You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up
|
So crooked cops you backin me up?
|
We gettin up outta here, that's what's up. That's what's up
|
Watch me back up the truck
|
You livin wit a lot of fear. That's what's up, my gats stay up
|
So crooked cops you backin me up?
|
|
[Verse 4]
|
We gotta start trusting each other right now if we gonna make it
|
through this night
|
From Criminal Minded to Spiritual Minded, and even beyond and behind
|
it, never be afraid to fight
|
or be the lazy type. Me, I'm the crazy type
|
I get them clubs so crazy hype
|
I throw them glasses on that them ladies like
|
And years later, rock what they babies like
|
I blaze the light, there me be 8,000,000 ways to die
|
but there's 16,000,000 ways to fight
|
So wherever you are... in the crib or your car, in your tank too
|
KRS-One would like to thank you, right
|
That's why KRS on the mic
|
Wishin you peace for the rest of the night
|
Cuz at the end of the film, you'll see what it mean
|
Turn up the track for Assault on Precinct 13!
|
|
Fresh (fresh)... For 2005... You suucckkkkaaaa
