You Know My Steez - GangStarr

[Guru] 
That makes me know that  we we we we're doin 
We had the right idea in the beginning 
And and we just need to maintain our focus  and elevate 
We what we do we update our formulas 
We have certain formulas but we update em (oh right) 
with the times  and everything y'know 
So  y'know the rhyme style is elevated 
The style of beats is elevated  but it's still Guru and Premier 
And it's always a message involved 

"The real... hip-hop" 
"MCing, and DJing.. from your own mind, ya know?" 
"I, I guess right now we should start the show" 

[Guru] 
Who's the suspicious character strapped with the sounds profound 
Similar to rounds spit by Derringers 
You're in the Terrordome like my man Chuck D said 
It's time to dethrone you clones, and all you knuckleheads 
Cause MC's have used up extended warranties 
While real MC's and DJ's are a minority 
But right about now, I use my authority 
Cause I'm like the Wizard and you look lost like Dorothy 
The horror be when I return for my real people 
Words that split wigs hittin like some double Desert Eagles 
Sportin caps pulled low, and baggy slacks 
Subtractin all the rappers who lack, over Premier's tracks 
Severe facts have brought this rap game to near collapse 
So as I have in the past, I will bash 
Droppin lyrics that be hotter than sex and candlewax 
And one-dimensional MC's can't handle that 
While the world's revolvin, on it's axis 
I come with mad love and plus the illest warlike tactics 
The wilderness is filled with this; so many people 
searching for false lift, I'm here with the skills you've missed 
The rejected stone is now the cornerstone 
Sort of like the master builder when I make my way home 
You know my steez... 

"You know my steez" --> Method Man 
"Let em know, do your thing God" "Keep it live" 
"To the beat y'all" --> Flavor
