Title: Blvd.

feat. Guru

[DJ Premier scratches]

I'm comin' through

It's the voice you can't ignore

It's Afu



[Guru]

Hey yo, this is Gifted Unlimited, peace, Afu

You know we been doin' it for years, man

Show these fools how it's supposed to be done, baby



[Afu-Ra]

Uh, I spent time learnin' to kill

That's right, I'm stretching out with my tentacles

When I nourish my skills

The illest with that other shit, Perverted with this

Come and step inside the mother ship

I got the codes and manuals and microchip to flip the script

Parallel to my thoughts, tryin' to get

I keep it hooked up, but not the great white hope

Hey yo, Preemo, should I hit 'em with the rope of dope

Sea shells, sea shells by the sea shore

But now I'm slap, tap and a rap an' attack your jaw

Summertime, ladies at the bus stop

When I roll without the drop, they yellin'

"Shimmy shimmy, Coco Pop"

Ill with the slurs, what?

And I'm thick like yoghurt

Quick to quick to quick to bust a fast word

I know you like what you think what you like

But I stick out on a track and blind your third-eye sight



[Guru]

Why do you think that we should settle for less?

Now take a deep breath

No time to get rest when cats is testin' your vest

Kid you know who we are

Afu to the Gang to the Starr

We got props on every boulevard



[Afu-Ra]

I do it like this and that

Straight knowledge drippin' right out my hat

Like sex and candle wax

As a matter of a fact

I take it back, in the days

If you wack, in fact, you get the bozack

And the chickens, are thinkin' they finger-lickin'

Tryin' to get the party kicking

But really they should be stinking

Crack the asphalt, while doing lyrical somersaults

Slang slay your head, bang a boogie

I got a think-tank, that's lighting up with the blinks

Move and sway but I'm compared to mint

Some cats can't forget the spiritual and mental

Straight up, yo, I slap 'em with a miracle

Expressing everything, including the kitchen sink

Building on topics from aluminium and zinc

So while you fix your kicks, I do triple axels

Get in your bath or round the rink



[Guru]

Why do you think that we should settle for less?

Now take a deep breath



No time to get rest when cats is testin' your vest

Kid you know who we are

Afu to the Gang to the Starr

We got props on every boulevard



Why do you think that we should settle for less?

Now take a deep breath

No time to get rest when cats is testin' your vest

Kid you know who we are

Afu to the Gang to the Starr

We got props on every boulevard



[Afu-Ra]

When I spark it up, and you ingest my skills

I'm hanging down like I'm testicles

Romancing like Cassa', more steps than a dancer

Got a Pop Quiz? Yo, I help you with the answers

I'm Master Marvel, scribble the illest novel

80 more albums, I got more pages than the bible

Never allow my energy through Leviticus

As I rebirth my soul, glowing Genesis

Eyes tearing through the fog

Shout my brothers and sisters

Who studied the Qua'ran

From a path of hip-hop

Shall arm in a synagogue

Dinner china mushroom song

As the night prolongs

That means I'm 'bout to put it on

So abrasive, and persuasive

Thugs pulled out of my set, stop pace makers

Peace: computer-whizzes, graph-writers and breakers



[Guru]

Why do you think that we should settle for less?

Now take a deep breath

No time to get rest when cats is testin' your vest

Kid you know who we are

Afu to the Gang to the Starr

We got props on every boulevard



Why do you think that we should settle for less?

Now take a deep breath

No time to get rest when cats is testin' your vest

Kid you know who we are

Afu to the Gang to the Starr

We got props on every boulevard





[DJ Premier scratches]

I'm comin' through

I'm holding aura, it backs the voice you can't ignore

I'm comin' through

It's Afu, you know who, I'm comin' faster



[DJ Premier]

Yo, check this out

You know it's on the popper when I'm on the scene

That's right, it's me, DJ Premier

Representing Gang Starr and all the affiliations along with it

And right about now, you in tune to Life Force Radio

That's the way it goes down, and that's the way it's gonna be

Word up and we outta here, DJ Premier and I'm out

Peace!
