DJ Doc you know he's down with us
P-Fine ain't down with us
Kenny Parker is down with us
Mr. Magic ain't down with us
Public Enemy is down with us
But MC Poet ain't down with us
B-Boy Records you just can't trust
Making funky music is a must
I'm number one
One

[Verse 1]
Caeré ese uno es fresco
Poet, you're soft, you know
Do not speak when grown people are speaking
Don't interrupt the class when I'm teaching
Turn your textbooks now to BDP
And see Criminal Minded and By All Means Necessary
I'm sorta like a bounty hunter
I hunt out the best and crush the mother—
(Hey dude, what's the name of your crew?) BDP
Becoming a monopoly gradually
There's no sense for you to become tense
Just pay attention 'cause I make sense
Poetic, athletic, lyrically alphabetic
Hear the science and let it
Serve as a fact I rap to attack
The wick wick weak and the wick wick wack
All around, world renown
My sound's not a clown with a crown or a hand-me-down
It's fresh right off the press
Written by The Teacher himself, KRS
The flexible, respectable poet
You all know it, but I think I oughta show it in a show
Although I don't play a banjo, I be livin' rhythms so I flow
Gracefully, to the point you admit I took you out
Allow me to remove all doubt about who has clout
And whose tongue flows out just like lightning
Tighten up while I'm writing
Memorizing then reciting is quite an experience
For example, I'm still number one
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Well, I rhyme to eat because I don't rob or cheat
Compete with the weak, now all you suckers have a seat
I don't meet the standards of kings
Or MC laws or Queens and those things
I merely bring, as simple as it sounds
New ground to the kings I'll throw down
On the floor, they look up at me in awe
Their freshest rhymes I ignore
T-E-A-C-H-E-R, you see, we are without a doubt thee star
The original, the inventor
Well, let's take a second to glance at the agenda
(Bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo)
I cannot understand it, man
What possessed you, boy, to go freestyle?
What are you, stupid? You must be senile
Poor child, I'll pull that file and smile
You can't even freak with the style I'm saying
Bringing, swinging, and flinging
You're weighing me down 'cause on the tip, you're swinging
Just like a native monkey change vines
You be swinging on Jimmy, man, all the time
I'm Criminal Minded, you are soft minded
Just like a dog, here's a lyric, go find it
I be rhyming straight and hard, don't push me
You rhyme soft and mushy, real mushy
Using that played out off-beat style
You've been sounding like Kane, boy
I'll freestyle freestyles, meanwhile, you're looking ignorant
I'll take a pause, but I don't bother filling it
Everybody's rocking off-beat to a beat that's soft like (white)- Wonder
Here's the whole wheat
Your first mistake was to answer back
To the undefeatin' master of beatin' suckers silly
No, I'm not from Philly
My name isn't (Magic, Poet or Billy)
It's KRS-pecially if it doesn't take you too long to find out where I shift
And shift it back to simply saying you're wack, weak, soft
And never ever really pose a threat
In fact, I haven't heard a decent lyric from you yet
I bet that creativity is hard to get
While someone does your music and your lyrics, you slept
So step 'cause obviously you haven't heard about my rep
I'm undefeated, allow me to go more in depth
You know boy I'm still number one
[Outro]
Yo, Ms. Melodie, she's down with us
Manager Moe, he's down with us
D-Nice and McBoo, they're down with us
ICU, you know he's down with us
DJ Red Alert, you know he's down with us
I'm number one
Doug E. Fresh is down with us
The Awesome Two, you know they're down with us
The Violators are down with us
Jeff Foxx, he's down with us
Bugsy, you know he's down with us
I'm number one
Big Tap is down with us
Just-Ice is down with us
George Clinton is down with us
Slick JC is down with us
Jungle Brothers are down with us
I'm number one
Willie D is down with us
My brothers in the Bronx is down with us
Homeboys in Brooklyn, down with us
Harlem USA is down with us
I'm number one

Yeah, BDP is undefeated
And to my big brother Scott La Rock, no matter how many suckers try to diss us
Haha, we're still number one
