Throw Down Lyrics

Throw Down lyrics

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

'cause 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 heaven

Fresh
in 89......Fresh in 90

Im Fesh in 91, 92 and 93

Fresh in 94, 95
don't be forgetten

Fresh in 96 and Fresher in 97

Fresh in 98 and
Fresh in 99

In the new millenium I'll be aroused in your mind so....



Chorus



Verse 2



[Krs]

What does it take
to be a real MC?

it means you can't write rhymes for the tv

'cause a
real MC, whether amatuers or pros

MC that knows how to rock live shows

another thing while I sing MC talk

a real MC never diss New York

'cause if you knew the time while your rhymin MC'n

you'd know that New
York is hip hop's garden of Eden

and if this aint sacred, we neva gonna
make it

your disin your very own hip hop tradition

you know why
when I grab the mic I'm superior

'cause I was at the Roxy and
Danceteria

Krs a product of respect and courtesy

while the rapper
is a product of the record company

Im not braggin but this is what hip
hop is achievin

it's becomin all rap and no Mc'in

still we aint
seein, 'cause still we aint believin

the West and the East of hip hop can
cease



[Cold Crush]

Hey yall this is true

the boys in
blue gotta plan for you

dont mess wit the suits 'cause they do too

so whatcha gonna do

Tried to be the best

live positive and free
from stress

dont limit yourself to east or west

whose the very
best...



[Krs]

Krs...I warm up your chest while your bones
untangle

the lyrics hit your head then goes down your ankle

I'm
saved for rainy days like casserole

then rediscovered later like the dead
sea scrolls

you wanna get out the ghetto, the projects and profit

but first negativity you gots to stop it

Big up the east coast and the
west coast

but you cant big up no coast when your ghost

I can see
now how the other man stole rock and roll

and guitar rippin 'cause we was
bullshit

sick of eatin chicken,

but fix it theres time tickin

we spittin and complainin but the worlds rearrangin

still we doin the
same, whose to blame we dont need this

its not black strangness, its
black weakness
