[Intro: KRS-One]
So when they say, "Yo, you know your lyrics are explicit"
I say, "Yo, I rap the Star Spangled Banner"
[Hook]
The hood don't change, never let it wash your brain
Treat poison in your veins
[Verse 1: KRS-One]
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
America, America, what have you done?
You used to be the whole light of the world like the sun
Now look what you've become
This unified, what happened to one of many won?
What happened to the social security fund?
You know, thieves and candidates both run
Man, don't look so stunned
You know what you're gonna get when you get KRS-One
So when they say, "Yo, you know your lyrics are explicit"
I say, "Yo, I rap the Star Spangled Banner"
[Hook]
The hood don't change, never let it wash your brain
Treat poison in your veins
[Verse 1: KRS-One]
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
America, America, what have you done?
You used to be the whole light of the world like the sun
Now look what you've become
This unified, what happened to one of many won?
What happened to the social security fund?
You know, thieves and candidates both run
Man, don't look so stunned
You know what you're gonna get when you get KRS-One
