I might get shot
Misunderstanding misrepresenting
Missing the point
Rolling down to LA
Car full of Kripples
Our politics, art & music we will display
Pop pop pop we might get shot
Wearing our politics on our sleeves
Goes deeper than what you can feel and see
Krip-Hop telling the story
Behind our name
Taking it back & we are not ashamed
Respecting the crips
Telling it like it is
Reclaiming what was ours in the beginning
Turning it inside out
But some will yell and shout
How we are disrespecting & pimping
From Blues to Hip-Hop honoring what got us here
Time for you to learn
Drop the guns & put your hands in the air
Krip-Hop schooling on the mic
No more fear no more staring
Educating/Advocating through music, poetry and comedy
Krip-Hop in Hollywood
On the corner in the hood
Behind a podium in LACC’s Classrooms
Fuck the fame
But we will have our own star on the Walk Of Fame
Once again, Krip-Hop goes deeper than a name
For all the Blind musicians who were ripped off
For the Latino break-dancer on crutches whom wasn’t mention in the movie Breakin
For Vernon Green who walked and sang on the streets of the Watts in the 50’s
Krip-Hop giving dues that is long over due
If you can’t understand than you must be a fool
We have no time for u we will go on doing what we do
Because it is bigger then I and you
Time for Spring Cleaning
Washing out old attitudes
Rolling down to LA in early May
Car full of Kripples
Our politics, art & music we will display
By Leroy Moore For Krip-Hop Nation’s gig in LA in May 2011
