 Guru: chorus 1(2X):
 It's ALONGWAYTOGO  when you don't know where you're going
 You don't know where you're going when you're lost (lost)
 Guru:
 What you need is more direction and get yourself some protection
 I thought by now that you have learned your lesson
 I'm stressin points and slammin all joints you call the real shit
 Correct shit, you know the busta way you feel shit
 Baby, I still don't think you understand
 You lose the game, we get more props than Dan...Rather
 And it don't matter cuz when you flinch, you're weak
 So I'mma step just to speak about the counterfeit, unlegit type of
 people
 Those cellophane ones, the ones that you can see through
 It's poetic justice cuz I'm mad with a pact
 So precise, my insight will take flight in the night
 And in the daytime, cuz I don't come up with corny rhymes
 I'm too devoted to the concept of gettin mine
 So here's the deal like Shaquille O'Neal
 If you don't know what you're doing, how the hell can you be real?
 chorus 2 (2X):
 (scratching)(Q-Tip from "Check the Rhime")How far must you go to gain
 respect? Um...
 Guru:
 Now in '93, realistically you should be...well aware of all the evils
 out
 there
 It's like a jungle sometimes. You get the message?
 You got to rumble sometimes, it's gettin hectic
 Emotions run deep, as times run out
 Solutions...it's time to find some out
 So according to me, suckers are barred
 >From obstructing my discussion cuz I rhyme too hard
 You take a wiff like a spliff here, like some fresh air
 I came to claim shit this year (this year)
 So take a stroll down the walkway, or hallway, or runway
 Fuck with us, kid, you'll pay
 I slay...and yo, I'm still on the expressway
 I kick my essay, then you know we don't play
 So pray down on your knees, G
 Cuz it's the best way, yes, the best way, cuz...
 chorus 1 (2X):
 chorus 2 (2X):
 Guru:
 There's a large amount of wack crews. For them, I got bad news
 Time to pay your dues, you fools
 I'm like express mail, with the script that hits
 Like the third rail, when I shock the spot, it's hot
 >From the rays of the sun
 Original one the prophet sent to become
 A law giver, cuz you shiver when I quiz ya
 All about the real neccessities of life
 All about the game and all about the name
 G to the A to the N to the G Starr
 We know who we are, but do you know who you are?
 (Richard Pryor: You go down there looking for justice, that's what you
 find, just us)
 chorus 1: (4X)
 chorus 2: (4X)
 (scratching) Um... (until end
