What Kinda World Lyrics - The Sneak Attack - Krs One

There's no such thing as a government 

There's only people rulin over people 

People jerkin around people 

People lendin a hand to people.. 

What part of the system do you play? 

Who do you oppress? .. Uhh! 

[Chorus] 

What kinda world are we livin in? Yo 

What kinda world are we livin innnnnn? 

Can I get with my people? Can I sit with my people? 

Break bread with my people? Move ahead with my people? 

[Chorus] - 1/2 

[KRS-One] 

When every day, seven thousand kids are gettin locked up 

When every day the justice system seems to stay stocked up 

When every day they cuttin 'em down 'fore they even pop up 

When every day you gotta duck 'fore you get shot up 

What kinda world are we livin in, spinnin in 

Winnin in, sinnin in, let us begin again 

Churches are ran like corporations makin me holla 

Corporations are ran like churches praisin the dollar 

There's no way out, or is it? Release your doubt and live it 

Teachin metaphysics don't listen to these critics hear it 

What kinda world are we livin in? 

Believe in yourself, achieve for yourself, see for yourself 

Speak for yourself, never weaken yourself, by deceivin yourself 

Believe in your wealth, see'mon! 

[Chorus] 

[KRS-One] 

Yo, yo, yeah 

What kinda world are we livin out, we move about 

in fear and doubt, tryin to get more clout 

Just check it check it out, we took the wrong route 

to a morality drought, basically I'm callin 'em out 

What kinda world are we livin in, when a song 

will not get on, unless it talks 'bout thongs 

Now where did we go wrong? We don't have long 

Preference all torn all worn not norm and all gone 

What kinda world do we live around, when we lay around 

Let me break it down, they shuttin us down 

while we play around, we fallin, stallin 

while God's callin, all in to fall in 

[Chorus] 

[Chorus] - 1/2 

[KRS-One] 

When every day another unwanted pregnancy ends 

When every day another person is betrayed by a friend 

When every day it never ends, and the people pretend 

like the President is there cause of them, let me ask 

What kinda world can we really trust 

when the cops they can shoot at us? Bo bo! 

What kinda world can we really grow (ohh) 

when our daughters want to be hoes (ohh) 

and a father that nobody knows (ohh) 

and a mother wearin them sexy clothes (ho) 

What kinda world are we livin in, yo 

What kinda world are we livin in, uhh 

[Chorus] w/ variations 

[KRS] 

Can I get with my people? Can I sit with my people? 

Break bread with my people? Move ahead with my people? 

Can I sit with my people? Can I get with my people? 

Break bread with my people? Move ahead with my people? 

Can I sit with my people? Can I get with my people? 

Break bread with my people? Move ahead with my people? 

Fresh.. for two-thousand-one.. you SU-CKAZZZZZZ!
