Build and Destroy
Boogie Down Productions

Yeah, whoo! Aiyyo Will?

Whassup Kenny?

I got a serious problem man

What's the problem?

Yo after all these years of rippin' shit

These suckers still try to front!

But check this out we've been on tour

with everybody so I don't know why they frontin '

Everybody!

y'all be in every party I be in every jam

I see they faces and they look at me and front

They come to every show and know we

break shit up all the time

You know what, yo Kris, what's your opinion?



Yo, I love the way I am and can't nobody out here change me

Rearrange me, tame me, try to game me, you don't play me

When I grab the mic then SHOCK the party spot

Your rhymes are flip-flop, I'll rock, hip-hop

Non-stop, me nah stop rock

You CAN touch this, but you'll get shot

Now what's this all about? Kris and humanity

In my face you're happy, on vinyl you're mad at me

Yo, pro-blackness is your solution

But I don't really know about that style you using yo

Too many Teachers in the class spoil the class

After awhile you got blabbering fucking fools

That's worse than always talking about sex, let's build

It ain't enough to study Clarence 13X

The white man ain't the devil I promise

You want to see the devil take a look at Clarence Thomas

Now you're saying, Who? like you a owl

Throw in the towel, the devil is Colin Powell

You talk about being African and being black

Colin Powell's black, but Libya he'll attack

Libya's in Africa, but a black man

will lead a black man, to fight against his homeland

An accomplice to the devil is a devil too

The devil is anti-human, who the hell are you?

I lecture and rap without rehearsal

I manifest as a black man but I'm universal

The capital K, small R-S

Capital P, small A-R, capital K, small E-R

We are, the star

Without the use of a car we go far

I build and destroy!

Yeah Kris, serve em man, serve em!

Yo why are they so jealous of BDP?

I don't know Will, yo don't get mad, get fresh man!

Word

Don't ever try to challenge BDP!

just shut the fuck up and listen!

This shit is crazy! Your remarks don't faze me!

People have a problem with me, cause I ain't lazy

I talk on vinyl then I act

What have you done, besides critique KRS-One?

I create organizations

Without organization, there'll be no black nation

What the fuck are you really saying?

You ain't a human while your music's boomin' anti-human

I'm assumin' if you ain't human you're a beast

The white man could be the devil all the day, that's the least

What are you doing for yourself black man?

Trying hard to be the original man, who?

The first man, with the first tan, on the first land

with the first clan, who gives a damn?

In history KRS is WELL advised

But it's something that my brain won't memorize

I don't base my whole life on memory

I base my life on my spirit and body chemistry

Africa is the home of humanity

Which makes the African a humanist, challenge me

You gotta learn not to be so concerned

with the original man, and see the criminal man, yeah!

The now man, with the now plan, with the now tan

with the right now genocide master plan

Damn! We gotta think about stopping this

God is not any black man on the land; God is consciousness

When you understand this you'll see Kris

Until then, you can get dissed

I'm not your prophet, messiah, minister, or savior

Chill with that ill behavior

I zero in like a laser

You're cuttin' your wrists with a razor

I got all type of flavors

Yes I am the original teacher

You gotta study the Qu'ran, Torah, Bahavaghita

The Bible, Five Baskets of Buddha Zen

And when you've read them shits, READ them shits again!

But watch what you're repeatin'

If you don't know the history of the author

you don't know what you're reading!

Yeah I'm still the original

Leaving MC's lyrically miserable

Their criminal syllables are minimal, show me respect BOY

Cause I build and destroy!
Now.. after all that

if anybody out there STILL got beef, check it out

We rip the lecture tours, we rip the beats

we rip the jams, we'll straight up rip that ass

know what I'm sayin' Will?

Word!

Yeah it seems they all forgot

On the mic you'll get fucked up

In the clubs you'll get fucked up

Anywhere Bronx Brooklyn Queens Manhattan

Jersey Japan Staten Isle.. yo anywhere you'll get fucked up

Don't you know we live for the battle?

I'm outta here

Yo cut that beat off
