rowston feat k-rino - history lyrics
[intro: k-rino]
yeah man, we been in this thing a long time, man
it’s good to think about the situations that motivated us to go further and keep going man
doing it for the love, listen!
[verse 1: k-rino]
i was 17 tryna get my name out
high school junior when criminal minded came out
rolling through the park knowing n-body was cold as me
jaw hit the ground first time i heard poetry
tripping over what i heard, mind straight blown
realizing was another level i need to be on
me and dbx and c-rock used to kick it
we was broke, couldn’t afford no concert tickets
flip to the hotel–bus, not a cab
hoping that we meet a rapper and get us an autograph
some walked in and said, “what’s up?”–some didn’t speak
then krs-one came into the lobby one deep
i was nervous to approach him and tried to shake his hand
till he showed us he was real and he was cooler than a fan
right then is when i knew that was the way that i would be
ain’t nothing like getting love from your favorite mc, yeah!
[chorus sample: marley marl]
always remember that, everything we do becomes history
you can make your own history if you know where you came from so know where you going
that’s very important
always remember that, everything we do becomes history
you can make your own history if you know where you came from
so know where you going
[verse 2: rowton]
watching yo mtv raps as a youngsta
a tribe called quest performed with a young busta
the ice t video for “a new jack hustler”
beastie boys, run dmc, snoop dogg, many others
discovered the great adventures of slick rick
made me wanna spit that slick sh-t like rick did
wasn’t until i heard biggie smalls i knew i had to step my game up if i wanna be the individual
countless nights, many hours working on my craft
thinking of the people who heard me before and used to laugh
spent years putting in work into all i had so i can k!ll my verses when i feature on somebody’s track
i come along way from spitting in my kitchen
to spitting lyrics with k-rino who’s a legend in lyricism
ain’t nothing like getting love from your favourite mc
maybe someday someone can feel that way about me!
[outro sample: krs-one]
this is a message right now
before you leave this building i want you to see the unity on stage
i want you to see the culture on stage
i want you to see the love amongst dj’s and mc’s on stage
spread this image of hip hop everywhere you go
put this image of hip hop on the website
put this image of hip hop in your children’s mind
