[Featuring Hannibal]

"We got news for ya" --> scratched by DJ Premier

Chorus: Guru and Hannibal

[Guru] While they devise our demise, we grow wise

[Hann] Upset the set up, the element of surprise

[both] IT'Z A SET UP

[Guru] It's time to upset the set up

Verse One: Guru

Though they conspire, fake us to make us retire

With the burning desire we make it out of the crossfire

Thoughts are higher, elevating and focused

while the path is narrow, for those like us

Primo beats provoke us to meditate like Zen

With the will and the strength, of a million men

While they introspect, where nothing is met

It's been that way for a while so much has come and then went

But I'm confident, a few, are due to redeem

their respective kingdoms, with an abundance of cream

So if I were to scheme, it would be on a realer dream

Like formin effective teams to filter the smokescreens

You totin in jeans, don't even know the true envy

The man I'm pickin apart, and plus they both were friends to me

Past trivial pursuits like East and West coast feuds

Come against me on the mic, many and most will lose

Like most dudes, I love this hip-hop, and this rap stuff

But I don't like the shows, where the ignorant act up

While some'll be rippin it, they be in the crowd wildin

Flippin on kids, for the chains and medallions

Or the kid they don't like, from a beef from way back

And decide that's the night, perfect time for payback

It's wack for the group, plus the others who came







to see a fat ass show, instead there's bullets aflame

Chorus

Verse Two: Hannibal

Still waters run deep this is leagues in depth

Quiet as kept they slept we crept

Society puts the squeeze on MC's like iron gr
