Poetic Justice Lyrics - Kool Moe Dee

Ladies and gentlemen 

There are seven acknowledge wonders of the world 

You are about to witness the eighth 

Karma 

Poetic Justice 

What goes around, comes around 

Stop, look, listen, learn 

Play with fire and you'll get burned 

You think you want some but you don't want none 

A fight on the mic, you don't want one 

I turn the heat on, proceed to beat on 

Any soft sap who think he's gone 

Na, come in my realm when I'm at the helm 

Nightmare's a joke when I'm on Elm 

Street, sleep but you don't dream 

Awaken, achin', takin' Codeine 

Now you're tryin' to O.D. 

'Cause you don't want none of Moe Dee 

Pain relievers won't relieve ya 

Suicide won't do it either 

Even after I cremate you 

I'ma reincarnate you 

Bring you back for another round 

Just to put you back in the ground 

Over and over again 

When is it over, it ends 

When I die but I won't die, don't try 

Rhyme forever, huh, why won't I 

Crush whoever tries to crush this 

Hurt like the truth, poetic justice 

Poetic Justice 

What goes around, comes around 

Goes around, comes around 

What goes around, comes around 

Goes around, comes around 

Doing justice to poetry 

This is a flurry, a fist of fury 

A rhyme so fast that it has to blurry 

Your vision, don't wink, blink or stop to think 

Or you might miss the next rhyme, ink 

Flows from the brain to the pen 

And comes alive when the thought transcends 

From the pen to the paper and paper to tape 

And a tape to wax and back to the tape 

Another hit which you can't get with 

A brainiac'll react, but a nitwit 

Can't relate, he can't hold the weight 

The rhyme's too deep and he sleeps awake 

The comatose need a double dose 

'Cause Kool Moe Dee don't rhyme like most 

Simplified rhymes or out of the norm 

But I simplify as I'm to perform 

Records for the pop [unverified] playlist 

The pop jocks, don't play this 

In an intent to hold rap back 

They stop the hard and play the wack 

They play the weak 'cause the weak won't speak 

But that just makes a fan go seek 

A station that they know will bust this 

Poetic justice 

(Who's on the radio) 

Poetic Justice 

What goes around, comes around 

Goes around, comes around 

What goes around, comes around 

Goes around, comes around 

Doing justice to poetry 

Poetic, phonetic, genetic, fanatic 

You connect it 

Those who chose to oppose are foes 

And usually can't grow afros 

As the rhyme flows, the spirit grows 

But only those with a pure soul knows 

The relevance of the beat of the drum 

And where it's comin' from 

For those of you who just don't listen 

Here's the second boat you're missin' 

Just like Noah, had you swimmin' 

Rap's the warnin' of an endin' 

Of an era, a reign of terror 

Over like a nova, never ever 

Try to amplify the lie 

The truth won't die and that's why I 

A versatile child of the Nile 

Speak with a ghetto style and meanwhile 

The reason I relate to the youth 

Is pure souls can feel the truth 

The poisoned souls have tried to stop it 

But just stop it 'cause hip-hop is 

From our roots and you can't touch this 

This is our ancestors' poetic justice 

Poetic Justice 

What goes around, comes around 

Goes around, comes around 

What goes around, comes around 

Goes around, comes around 

Doing justice to poetry
