1.Premier ＆ The Guru
(premier scratches 'the guru')
It's '89, mine, i'm keithy e. the guru
Premier is here with the flair, we're running to you
Bust your grill with skill, as we build and fulfill
I drop the wisom to quiz them, with precision we drill
We're kicking wannabes down cause we're gonna be down
We're moving on with the sound, see we're gonna be around
For a long time, i kick the strong rhymes
You're empty-handed and stranded cause you were standing in the
wrong line
This is not the fate is for sure a pure pen
The gift is hitting home on your dome because we meant it
You'll need a graffiti, don't heed and you'll be bleeding
We'll rip you, and ship you back and you'll be repeating
The progress, and i guess that you should be told now
Lo and behold how the stroll i unfold now
Knowledge, wisdom, and peace are what i'm true to
In the rear is premier, and i'm the guru
(premier scratches)
I sound greater because i'm head of the comittee
I chill in new york city, i'm witty, so get me
To brooklyn, so i can ill and peace no joke
You slow poke, you'll go broke, you're rhymes ain't all that
dope
So take a backseat, with all your wack beats
This is the one phase of my rage and onstage i slap eats
For you to try to steal this, i will reveal this
Like a prophet, i'll drop it, premier will start to seal
This coffin to be chewing, you soft and you'll be doing
A dance with some ants in the ground, you clowns be chewing
But you could never get this, the talents we've been blest with
So many different ways to phrase, you shouldn't mess with the
guru
(premier scratches)
So here's the verdict, cause all you suckers know you're booty
You're played out, you'll fade out, i doubt that you can do me
We ain't having no gabbing, when i be grabbing and jabbing
In your ear like a spear prepare your body for battling
Cause you've been preparing to move, you'll be certain to lose
Open your eyes up, wise up while i work with the groove
To teach your next school, who'll be the next fool？
That i can stomp down with compound nouns but like a pestule
Come back with dumb raps, then like a tech inside
I'll take you out your misery you ought to step aside
Your weak rap, you speak that yang so imma clue you
The dj's name is premier, and i'm the guru
I'm telling you, '89 is mine. peace!
2.Jazz Music
The music started in the hearts and drums, from another land
Played for everyone, by sons, of the motherland
Sendin out a message of peace, to everybody and
Came across the oceans in chains and shame
Easing the pain, and it was without name
Until some men in new orleans on rampart street
Put out the sounds, and then they gave it a beat
I'm talkin bout jelly roll, king, and satch
I'm talkin bout the music that had no match
Yes the music, and it was born down there
We're gonna use it, so make the horn sound clear
It's jazz music... jazz music
Yo, the music that pops, and other cats made
It stayed, cause people love when they played
To the north, it took a riverboat shuffle
To the big cities, with lots of hustle and bustle
To chicago, and to the apple too
This was a scene, that our forefathers knew
Go get your crew, i know they'll get into
The jazz music... jazz music
The music called jazz had the razzamatazz
It had the flavor, and a lot of pizazz
The big band beat was very neat and unique
The swing was king, it made you tap your feet
There was benny and duke and of course the count basie
The melody was smooth and yes, very taste
There was hap, the prez, and lady day and
Dizzy bird and miles, they were all playin
They brought it to the people of the foreign lands
Back across the oceans and the desert sands
Where it echoes in the distant sounds of drums
And it rises with the sun on days begun
This is the music, that we give tribute to
They gave it to us, that's why we give it to you
The jazz music... the jazz music
The jazz music... uh.. uh.. uh..
3.Gotch U
Here's the jam i slam to make it known that
I diagram, write out my own rap
Cast the line, watch me shine, i'll assign
You to do this, you can review this
Convention that comes from, combining sums from
Equations or phrases, cause i begun some
Exploratory digging, i'm thinking big and
I'm taking all your words, cause your site is blurred
And you're selfish, and rather immature
I've always felt this, that's why i'm giving more
I am sure, that you find that i'm the guru
With this particular style i'm running to you
I gotch u
Keen is my site, and keen is my brain
I campaign to gain my domain
And vocalizing techniques, emcees are deadbeats
And drop to the ground then, i stomp em down with sound
I'm a pacifist, but they won't last with this
Dope beat combined with lyrical energy
You can rewind this, play this again and see
Just how i kick the, rhymes that hit ya
Snug in your mug, while i depict a
Scene that is hype and, i'm title swipin
If you're loungin, i'll take the mic and
Show you how it goes in, i'll leave you frozen
I gotch u
I live my life with adventure, because i went for
The road seldom run, cause it was meant for
Me to hold the spot here, your rhymes are not clear
Focus, on the way that i wrote this
I'm crafty, so how you gonna outlast me？
With your bogus crap, you're gonna have to note this
While i rap, and then i quiz you like a teacher
Give a speech to you while i impeach the
Ones with the crowns and, my voice resounds and
Take it from me, then you will see, i got the g
The keith double-e, i got the know how
And i will show how the hip-hop will grow now
I gotch u
I got nothin to fear, nothin to hide
Bein conquered with the micraphone, i take you for a ride
And slide glide to the hoop and scoop you like
Clyde, drexler, your girl i wanna get next to
Hold up i gotta flex to the stage, then engage
To do the knowledge, then backstage is where i'm headed
Don't sweat it, sit down clown and just let it be
Set it free, get it see
I got g, cetainly, and i gotch u
I gotch u
Once again, we got the gangstarr out in total effilzneck
I got my man dj premier... peace...
4.Manifest .

Mind and soul, so you can lead your-self
To keep, i got a real objective here

Message to all, suckers i maul they fall from
Into the pit of purgatory

Tryin to riff, so let me uplift and shift my gift

The brother who must live and give with much insight
Foresight to ignite, excite and delight
And you might gain from it, or feel pain from it
Because i'm ultimate, and i'm about to let off
Knowledge is wisdom, understanding
Truth's the proof, so won't you throw a hand
In the air, put up a peace sign and be fine
If so we're feeling good we should we could we would
Stop, think for a moment ok？

Do more than the rest who fess and can't compete

Snatch up the funds and, make lonely ones
I meant it really, cause i'm clearly obsessed and i

5.Gusto

Yo i'm an optimist, that's why i'm droppin this

'my man gots that gusto' 'word'
(repeat 2x)
You say your rhymes flow, i say i'm spontaneous
Rockin the place, i'm not mainly just
Sayin some words that are weak or incoherent
And it's apparent, that you fear us, the gang
But i'm still a peace seeker
I'm in your face, don't have to sneak ya
Dope rhymes speaking with wisdom of a preacher
And i'm here, cause you've been victimized
I'm sincere, i see through gifted eyes
So yo, we're gonna see what the race is
That's where you groups, will have to face us
And you can bet we'll be in tip-top shape
Nice so precise with a hip-hop update
Wait, i got a shoutout for the ladies
Come check me baby, don't underrate me
Cause i'm a man with the plan for all
The guru, to groove you, get out the wall
I've got gusto
'my man gots that gusto' 'word'
(repeat 2x)
I've got gusto, so i'm kickin it well
I got gusto, with much clientele

Attack mack and rap
And as you calm i will romp
Like a giant i stomp

Really？ right, you wanna be a emcee？
Then go against me -- boy don't even tempt me
Cause i go house on the freestyle tip
Math you and blast you and then just shift
Into hype gear, no fear, i persevere
Year after year, rehearsin verse so clear
Cause i've been into rhymin man for like eons
And every stage, word i wanna be on
So i can show you how it's gotta be done
I never run or shun, i've just begun

Now is the chance to advance and get an outlook
Create the circumstance, because i doubt books
Can relay, words this way, so i'll portray
A new image, and let's begin as
Members who pledge to, look up ahead to
A beautiful world, though we've been led to
Believe it will not be and, we still are seein
Agreein there'll be peace, the wealth will increase
And we'll prosper, you know like flourishin
The rhyme i toss ya, it will be nourisihin
Cause i must bring, ideals for better living see
Because i do believe in positivity
'positive but never negative'
＊ dj premier cuts n scratches ＊
Weak is the clown, much weaker is the fool
I'll overrule to duel and to school
For reasons that are so deep, i don't need no cheap
People to identify, i'll just say hi and bye
Since i'm an optimist, i'll turn and walk with this
Tape playing loudly, inside my headphones
Mc's that crowd me, turn into headstones
Because i don't have time for, powerless minds or
Suckers who suck, because i find more
Interesting topics, you can not stop it
I drop it and rock it i shock it, that's how i'm livin b
I have to live my life with positivity
'positive but never negative'
＊ dj premier cuts n scratches ＊
Havin nothin to lose, so much to win
Bein grateful for my darker skin, i take you for a spin
And then begin to groove and sooth and move your whole
Crew, the guru, and truth i wanna give to you
So watch as i break through to your dome
Cause i'm prone to give a message, then back home
Is where i'm goin, still knowin, my life's right
And that days to come, will be fun
I'll achieve, i'll receive, and i'll be livin free
Me and my dj premier with positivity... positivity!
'positive but never negative'
＊ dj premier cuts n scratches ＊
So if you're generatin positivity out there
You know that's the move
Yo me and premier, and dancer h.l. rock

Jersey, philly, boston, houston, cleveland
L.a., and the rest of the country's got positivity
The u.k., germany, the rest of europe's got positivity
And of course africa and the rest of the world
They all have positivity
Cause everybody should have positivity
Peace and bless

10.Cause And Effect
You ain't livin right punk, i'll have to school you
Not rule you, but i'll say yo you fool yourself
When you try to deny and defy written laws
This means your cause has lost
Think about it, take the time, and even ponder longer
Then let your mind start to wander
Go black and track the facts, about all of your mistakes
It only takes to one to make fate
Pick up your life, clean up your act, and get a legal plan
You can, or be an evil man
Caught, and then you claim you're not responsible
The choice was yours, when the fun's gone you will realize
That you don't get somethin for nothin, why you bluffin？
Others even brothers are stuffin their pockets
With honest cash, they'll laugh, so don't knock it
Jock it, cause the guru must stop it
I'll jab you, smack you, crack -- you're demolished
You must acknowledge -- life is like a college in itself
Get a degree in reality
Or you will be upon it like a lawn you'll be walked on
Gone, never to see or be the same again
Friend, cause the time you spend
Bringin down yourself, bringin down the pace
Bringin down your friends, bringin down the race
Will have your life in a wreck
And homeboy life is cause and effect
＊ primo scratches ＊
Exactly what you put in boy, you will get out of it
The energy released comes back, there is no doubt of it
So when you thrive to connive and contrive foolish deeds
This means you'll bleed from greed
Dig the rhyme dig the thought, of what'll happen
You're nappin, you're gonna fall off the map 'n'
Lie out, and cry out, why？ you got the short end of the stick
Cause you're too quick to run tricks
Open your mind, widen your sight, get out of your rut
Move, and get the lead out of your butt
Cause you can't live without a plan to get freshed chump
And you shouldn't stand to let
Anything sway you from the path you know is truthful
Chill, cause you know the chosen youth will
Take over, and control the whole so don't blow it
Know it, cause the guru must show it
I'll teach you, reachin each so you're enlightened
Emcees are frightened, by what i write in my songs
Cause i express what i manifest
While some of you fall down to the ground with breakdowns
Never to see or be the same again
Friend, cause the time you spend
Bringin down yourself, bringin down the pace
Bringin down your friends, bringin down the race
Will have your life in a wreck
And homeboy life is cause and effect
＊ primo scratches ＊
You're still playin games lame, i'll have to end you
Straight to the gate of fate, so you can claim your doom
Will you decay as you pay in repentance
I light my sentence like incense
Breathe in, expel your fears as you marvel
Heed what i feed, you won't starve you'll make it
But if you don't, you will be finished
You'll dissapear, you will diminish
Never to see or be the same again
Friend, cause the time you spend
Bringin down yourself, bringin down the pace
Bringin down your friends, bringin down the race
Will leave you bugged and upset
Cause homeboy life is cause and effect
Cause and effect!!
＊ primo scratches ＊
Once again, premier and the guru
It's like that
11.2 Steps Ahead
Chumps tryin me, but when they eyein me
I build in skills, and to enhance my chances
I'm thrilled, to be involved with solvin
All the problems, with the way that the sound
Has gone down, so i frown at the scene
Where you be takin it, and like the winds of change
I'll be breakin it up, shakin it up
Clearing it out, airing it out, and bearing the clout
On my chest, like a crest that rests
On a tidal wave, only the good i'll save
When i plunge, and engulf the ones
Who aren't sons, who converse with ？ and make friends
Yo, i recommend that you get back there
And sit back there, contemplate, calculate
And concentrate on these rhymes, that i picked to stick
To your mind, and then i'll raise you straight
To the next phase, cause i will amaze
With much force, and like the power that comes
From the source, which is greater and stronger, of course
If you didn't know, i will tell you
That all the blind no-minds i give hell to
And if you comprehend what is said
Then you'll be stayin two steps ahead
'one, two' steps ahead
'one, two' steps ahead
'one, two' ＊ cut and scratched by premier ＊
I can't work with, those jerks who front
With the mic, cause i never liked fabrications
Wack creations that lack authenticity
For some time in my mind i've been wishin the
Fiends who do would just yield
And at the foot of my bed, i have kneeled
Thus revealed as a gift i have nurtured
And i hurt ya if you're not knowin
That the musical need is now growin
And like a man obsessed, i must
Go all out, show all out, blow all out
Throw all out, get on out of my path
Cause i laugh at the ones with no gas
I surpass the class to get geesed
Like the way the ballistic's released
And i won't cease til i cap them
Or slap the saps with my rappin
Continue on with my journey
All the negative ones don't concern me
My eyes are wise, i got cause to live
Positive, have to give, every way
Every day of my life, so i fight for the right
And get hype, so heed what i feed
And get fed, then you'll be livin two steps ahead
'one, two' steps ahead
'one, two' steps ahead
'one, two' ＊ cut and scratched by premier ＊
I'm way ahead of you, yes i'm on top
It's me instead of you, with the lyrics you fear it
So get near it, and then you'll hear it clear
And concise, cause i paid the price to be
Talking here, rocking there, shocking here
Stop and stare, then compare if you wish
Because the others fess, i insist
So i will assist you to blend with this
Bend with this, tend with this, fend with this
As i ascend with my orals
You define and defy with high morals
And at the spot i will stop to throw darts
At the ones who proclaim with no aim
Cause they don't hold the fame, they're on mine
And since i'm well inclined and divine
I will have to ask you to come in
Move along with the tongue and the drummin
Progress and let the blessings be read
And you'll be staying two steps ahead
'one, two' steps ahead
'one, two' steps ahead
'one, two' ＊ cut and scratched by premier ＊
12.No More Mr. Nice Guy
Punks will always scheme to, create a means
To take my kindness, for weakness, cause they don't seem to
Respect my generosity, and what it's costin me
Is headaches, i don't like fakes, or people bossin me around
You clown, it's time i beat you down
You tried to play me betray me and slay me, and now you'll drown
In the river, i'll give ya, reasons you should shiver
Cause when i get to wreckin and deckin, i won't forgive ya
You had the opportunity, for bein cool with me
You stabbed me in the back you duck, and now you're soon to be
Disarmed, embalmed, i'll break off all your arms
And then your legs, you'll beg, i'll crack you like a egg
And spill your yolk, you joke, i'll duff you in the eye
And you'll say, 'why？' and bleeding and pleading, you'll start
to cry
And i'll reply with a confident sigh, 'there'll be no more mr.
nice guy'
No more mr. nice guy
No more mr. nice guy
Yo ？, this is somethin that i wanna tell to you, sell to you
And as i speak you girlies yell to your friends, 'yo it's him!
He's shockin again!' this is the season for breezin with reason
Because i'm in, charge of the attack on suckers who just rap on
Wack track that lack that snap, while i just mack on
Honies who look good and, they all want the wood in
They push up, to get up close, to serve me puddin
And i just tell em, 'look here, i am not a crook there'
But i like to snatch em all, cause like a hook they're stuck
Struck, they tried to press their luck
They wanna tease me and skeeze me and please me, to squeeze the
bucks
From my pocket that is bulging, i'm not indulging
In lame games with phony dames, too busy buildin my fortress
Score this, drink while i pour this
I'm livin and givin my rhymes, so i'll ignore this
Garbage you are runnin, i am not the one and
You'll never get to vamp me tramp cause i'll be stunning your
mind
I'll sign, my name on your behind and cool you off
Like frost, i'm leary of the way you double cross
Get lost, i'll tell you you are fly and say goodbye
And burning and yearing you'll ask my why
And i'll reply with a wink of an eye, 'there'll be no more mr.
nice guy'
No more mr. nice guy
No more mr. nice guy
Oh sure, you're, running back for me
I'ma great you defeat you and beat you, show you the door
Cause you ain't really welcome, you know you're seldom
Thinkin of your fellow man, but you still til them
You wanna be a friend then, you keep pretendin
You're two-faced, so you'll taste, just what i'm sendin
Pow, now, you're shaken sayin wow
You stare, you fear, my wrath is too severe
I never let up so get up i'm fed up, and i don't care
I'll duff you in the eye and you'll say, 'why？'
While you're bleeding and pleading, you'll start to cry
And i'll reply, 'either do or you die,
Cause there'll be no more mr. nice guy'
No more mr. nice guy
No more mr. nice guy
13.Knowledge
Take your time, recline and make your mind up
I feel fine, so i'm gonna wind up
Here's the pitch, check the switch, now watch me
Hit you right to this, while i pursue this
Desire, to get you, on up to step to
Rhythms and rhymes, cause i respect you
Unless you're a biting one, a non-writing one
Reciting some of my lines, although you are blind
You'll see my shadow, rather my silhouette
But i'll be glad though, knowin your pillow's wet
And that you're upset, cause you thought you brought
The answer -- to this dilemma in rap but i'll vamp you with
Knowledge knowledge knowledge (echoes)
Pure is my thought, my spirit is my heart
I shall embark to spark my fine art
Of oratory wisdom, emcees i quiz them
On terms and techniques, then i'll wreck each with speech
I win the science fair, so you don't you try and scare
Me with your threats and, idle atrocities
I am the best and yo i am your boss at these
Methods and forms of, causin swarms of fans
Just to dance, like thunder storms of
What it must take to, crush you or break you
If i dislike you, i may not hate you
It's just that you sound weak when, you think you're speakin
Knowledge knowledge knowledge (echoes)
The rhymes are peaceful like yoga, and yo i know the
Time must be mine, so i'm gonna throw the
Whole kit n kaboodle in, while you sit doodlin
Scribblin, now wipe your mouth cause it's dribblin
That's nasty, so how you gonna get past me？
Whatcha babblin punk？ i have to put a rattle in
Your hand, and then i'll serve you like an infant
Put a bib on you, and feed you in-stan-taneously
Rhymes that'll be, famous from me
The keith double-e, cause you're a faker
And i will take the mic from you and make the
Brothers and sisters unite, while we relate the
Knowledge knowledge knowledge (echoes)
I'm glowin with intensity, cause i've been sent to g
Off as your boss, because you lack identity
You're quite immature and, you sound very boring
Like a raft i'll bring you back, up onto the shore and
Give you time to dry out, while i just try out
My hunch that with one punch, yo i could put that eye out
But violence, is never my first choice
I use my voice to make you rejoice
In agreement with our program, cause there is no man
Who can give you more of this, and you can be sure of this
Fact that i'm exact, cause i got it down pat
We are scholars risin, we're exercisin our
Knowledge knowledge knowledge (echoes)
14.Positivity
Now is the chance to advance and get an outlook
Create the circumstance, because i doubt books
Can relay, words this way, so i'll portray
A new image, and let's begin as
Members who pledge to, look up ahead to
A beautiful world, though we've been led to
Believe it will not be and, we still are seein
Agreein there'll be peace, the wealth will increase
And we'll prosper, you know like flourishin
The rhyme i toss ya, it will be nourisihin
I must bring, ideals for better living see
Because i do believe in positivity
'positive but never negative'
＊ dj premier cuts n scratches ＊
Weak is the clown, much weaker is the fool
I'll overrule to duel and to school
For reasons that are so deep, i don't need no cheap
People to identify, i just say hi and bye
Since i'm an optimist, i'll turn and walk with this
Tape playing loudly, inside my headphones
Mc's that crowd me, turn into headstones
Because i don't have time for, powerless minds or
Suckers who suck, because i find more
Interesting topics, you can not stop it
I drop it and rock it i shock it, that's how i'm livin b
I like to live my life with positivity
'positive but never negative'
＊ dj premier cuts n scratches ＊
Havin nothin to lose, so much to gain
Bein grateful for my darker skin, i take you for a spin
And then begin to groove and sooth and move your whole
Crew, the guru, and truth i wanna give to you
So watch as i break through to your dome
Cause i'm prone to give a message, then back home
Is where i'm goin, still knowin, my life's right
And that days to come, will be fun
I'll achieve, i'll receive, and i'll be livin free
Me and my dj premier with positivity... positivity! yeah

Yo me and premier, we always got positivity

The rest of the hip-hop world.. got positivity
