How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

For most of white America, they were oblivious to the problems of the ghetto. Without KRS-One rapping about it in his music, Bradley would be too. This Brad’s ode to him.

This song used samples from KRS-ONE’s songs
“You Must Learn,” “The Style You Haven’t Done Yet,” “Breath Control,” and also Kurtis Blow’s “Tough”.

There is also a rare mix from Sublime and KRS-One’s “Step Into A World”
