<br />
[Intro]<br />
<br />
Brooknam, Bedsty, Crown Heights, mad hood<br />
<br />
What it is y`all, bust it yap<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[Verse 1]<br />
<br />
As is requested on the record my speech is live, devised or nothin`<br />
<br />
Fortified the weapon, the best was selected<br />
<br />
You ain`t the mos def you the mos defective<br />
<br />
Bounce and keep steppin`<br />
<br />
My inkwell is a riverbed that resurrect the living dead<br />
<br />
I manifest what`s considered but what isn`t said<br />
<br />
Stay on the dot like a infrared<br />
<br />
It`s off the block with whole different thread<br />
<br />
The durable, flame-resistant, breathable, fantastic fabric<br />
<br />
You all get into your formal wear, weave classics<br />
<br />
My speech fits so seamless ya need glasses<br />
<br />
to recognize the stitch on your nerve fiber<br />
<br />
The Black Star gon` make the whole world turn brighter<br />
<br />
You shine bright but my constellation burn brighter<br />
<br />
They ain`t invited to the table, make it turn cipher<br />
<br />
They chattin` big words but backs is yellow like Big Bird<br />
<br />
When I flow you ain`t seein` no dough like interns<br />
<br />
I`m professor, you a freshman just scared of your midterms<br />
<br />
The title on my bookbinding is "Advanced Mic Science"<br />
<br />
A champion can only rest at the place where the title is<br />
<br />
Brooklyn<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
{*beat switches*<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
"And I`m Crooklyn`s finest, Crooklyn`s finest" -> Notorious B.I.G.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[Verse 2]<br />
<br />
Believe that<br />
<br />
Brooklyn my habitat<br />
<br />
The place where it happen at<br />
<br />
Lives sway in the sharp balance of the battle-ax<br />
<br />
Irons is brandished at<br />
<br />
Thugs draw their hammer back<br />
<br />
It`s where you find the News 2 crew cameras at<br />
<br />
It`s where my fam is at, the Summertime Jam is at<br />
<br />
They play B.I.G. and get you open like a sandleback<br />
<br />
Hotter than candle wax<br />
<br />
Hustle and you can`t relax<br />
<br />
The crack babies tryin` to find where their mammas at<br />
<br />
It`s off the handle, black<br />
<br />
Where big police scandals at<br />
<br />
Turned in to action screenplay sold to Miramax<br />
<br />
The type of place where they check your appearance at<br />
<br />
And cats who know where all the hot low gear is at<br />
<br />
The stompin` grounds is where you find the pound smokers that<br />
<br />
be blazin` tron that have your wave cap floatin` back<br />
<br />
The doorstep where the "Dispossessed" posted at<br />
<br />
Dope fiends out on Franklin Ave. sellin` Zorarax<br />
<br />
You big ballin` better keep your money folded back<br />
<br />
Cuz once the young guns notice that, it`s over black<br />
<br />
Brooklyn keep on takin` it, worldwide we known for that<br />
<br />
Flossy cats get it snatched like the local tax<br />
<br />
The place I sharpen up my baritone vocals at<br />
<br />
Where one of the greatest MCs was a local cat<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
{*beat switches*<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[Verse 3]<br />
<br />
uh huh yeah<br />
<br />
I keep it rockin`<br />
<br />
Classic like Adidas Top 10s<br />
<br />
I`m free from all feelings and toxins<br />
<br />
Mysterious like chessboxin`<br />
<br />
Roll with the force to stop gents<br />
<br />
from mixin` up their wicked concoctions<br />
<br />
Kweli, that`s my (???) and thought is our department<br />
<br />
If you can`t clean up, don`t start then<br />
<br />
My print on the parchment translate finer and larger<br />
<br />
to leave the competition disheartened<br />
<br />
The stars shine black like carbon<br />
<br />
Writin` in my book of rhymes, all my words pass the margin<br />
<br />
To hold a mic I`m throbbin`<br />
<br />
I carry off the page<br />
<br />
Go on and on for days<br />
<br />
So my phrase autographed on the breeze you breathe<br />
<br />
Inhale the crisp air of the brand new seas<br />
<br />
Where we run things but things don`t run we<br />
<br />
What you hear from me constructed carefully<br />
<br />
Walk until my brothers on the run so fearfully<br />
<br />
Passionate to the point of tearful<br />
<br />
They be like "Mos I FEEL YOU"<br />
<br />
Holdin` it down and still DO<br />
<br />
FO` REAL DUDE, I`m real true<br />
<br />
Radiate whatever I`m far from or near to<br />
<br />
Stay electric like eels who preside in the ocean tide<br />
<br />
Better tell the clothesline time to open wide, and RECIEVE this<br />
<br />
No trick, son we sleeveless<br />
<br />
So nice you can either recite or read this<br />
<br />
My semantic`s deep like Atlantis secrets<br />
<br />
Who you got beef with? Then STATE your grievance<br />
<br />
MAKE IT KNOWN before my defense make a zone<br />
<br />
Make peace `fore you find it too hard to make it home<br />
<br />
Vocal cords so powerful they might break a bone<br />
<br />
We rollin` with the natives, regulate the Terrordome<br />
<br />
Bout to enter to the ages where my crew take the throne<br />
<br />
My DNA is out of print, you can`t make a clone<br />
<br />
So rockin` it, keep rockin` it<br />
<br />
A hundred percent "B-Boy Document"<br />
<br />
Magnetic marvelous, astonishin` accomplishments like consciousness<br />
<br />
Whether solo or partnership I dominate the conferences<br />
<br />
Can`t say that twice, but you ain`t that nice<br />
<br />
But Mos Def is, ain`t that right?<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/brooklyn_alternate_version_lyrics-mos_def.html" target='_blank'>BROOKLYN ALTERNATE VERSION lyrics MOS DEF</a></pre>

[Intro]

Brooknam, Bedsty, Crown Heights, mad hood

What it is y`all, bust it yap

[Verse 1]

As is requested on the record my speech is live, devised or nothin`

Fortified the weapon, the best was selected

You ain`t the mos def you the mos defective

Bounce and keep steppin`

My inkwell is a riverbed that resurrect the living dead

I manifest what`s considered but what isn`t said

Stay on the dot like a infrared

It`s off the block with whole different thread

The durable, flame-resistant, breathable, fantastic fabric

You all get into your formal wear, weave classics

My speech fits so seamless ya need glasses

to recognize the stitch on your nerve fiber

The Black Star gon` make the whole world turn brighter

You shine bright but my constellation burn brighter

They ain`t invited to the table, make it turn cipher

They chattin` big words but backs is yellow like Big Bird

When I flow you ain`t seein` no dough like interns

I`m professor, you a freshman just scared of your midterms

The title on my bookbinding is "Advanced Mic Science"

A champion can only rest at the place where the title is
