Cocaine business controls america

Ganja business controls america

Krs-one come to start some hysteria

Illegal business controls america

[krs-one]

One afternoon around eleven o'clock

It was freezin cold he was standing on the block

Sellin cheeba nick's and dimes

Sayin a rhyme just to pass the time

The cops passed by but he stayed calm

Cause the leather trench coat was keepin him warm

But this time they walked by real slowly

He thought to himself "they look like they know me"

They drove away but he didn't stay

He jumped in the cab and he paid his tab

But guess who he saw when he hit the block

It was the same cop car the same two cops

They jumped out quick they pulled a gun

They said "don't try to fight and don't try to run

Cooperate and we will be your friend

Non-cooperation will be your end"

He jumped in the car and while they rode

They ran down the list of things he owed

They said "you owe us some money you owe us some product

Cause you could be right in the river tied up"

He thought for a second and he said "what is this?

You want me to pay you to stay in business? "

They said "that's right or you go to prison

Cause nobody out there is really gonna listen

To a hood" so he said "good!

I'll pay you off for the whole neighborhood"

Because

Cocaine business controls america

Ganja business controls america

Krs-one come to start some hysteria

Illegal business controls america

[krs-one]

A guy named jack is sellin crack

The community doesn't want him back

He sells at work he sells in schools

He's not stupid the cops are the fools

Cause everyone else seems to go to jail

But when it comes to jack the cops just fail

They can't arrest him they cannot stop him

Cause even in jail the bail unlocks him

So here is the deal and here is the facts

If you ever wonder why they can't stop crack

The police department is like a crew

It does whatever they want to do

In society you have illegal and legal

We need both to make things equal

So legal is tobacco illegal is speed

Legal is aspirin illegal is weed

Crack is illegal cause they cannot stop ya

But cocaine is legal if it's owned by a doctor

Everything you do in private is illegal

Everything's legal if the government can see you

Don't get me wrong america is great place to live

But listen to the knowledge i give

Cocaine business controls america

Ganja business controls america

Krs-one come to start some hysteria

Illegal business controls america
