Here's The Proof Songtext / Lyric

All right buddy, when can I make you study?

I'll take you out while I talk about some ugly

Things taking place, within the rap race

I'm well aware it's Premier, I got a taste

Of the bitterness, cause I'm the Guru I'm not with the rest of

Those who rose by scandalous means

I'll intervene and you can't handle the scene

Cause you're bugged, by all the drugs and payola

The gameplan, I will smartly take over

I'm bolder, I'm wiser, I got the eyes to

Observe all the MC's perping a move

And after the circus, I'm certain to prove

That a man, traveling with wisdom book in hand

Will stand, longer than any king of merely one land

And after the war is sort and peace

The Gang will be the dealers of the dope beats

Always, in hallways we're lurking

Working, like an army of surgeons

To cut up your butt up, so what up you can't team

Shake and don't mistake, the mystical chance and

Glance, at the brothers with the stunned look

And at the stake is where we're gonna burn crooks

When though they bite but can't fight the mighties

Prepare your head for flight, say "Goodnighty"

Most likely, I be saying the truth

Cause GangStarr means "funky" and here is the proof



*DJ Premier scratched the chorus*



A lotta brothers, you know they wanna act like

They're tight, a brother's like the wack type

Who underrate the record but check it a second

If the G the U the R the U is somebody new

We'll never lie to you

I wouldn't try to do what I would die to do

I'm not despising you, but use your eyes just to see

Envision how it'll be

Cause now it'll be me, on a rhyme spree

Going far, large, wide, so let us take a ride

Inside, of transcendentalism

I'm on a mission, you're in a mental prison

Getting nuff respect and more selective and effective

So respect this, I insist you be swift and catch the movement

As I shoo the tenderonies, don't be phony

Take some time to spend to know me

Cause I'm complex, decking MC's while I quiz them

The real deal I reveal so feel the wisdom

And strength, cause I can go the whole length

Just like a preacher preaching the truth

GangStarr means "funky" and here is the proof



*DJ Premier in deep concentration once again*



This beat is thumping, and I'm a keep you jumping

I'll pull your card, I'm hitting harder put the chumps

In a daze, like a maze they can't get out of

And as they try they can't deny I got the clout of

The Bossman, and in a battle you'll be tossed and

Turned, to learn more gracious ways

You must behave, or I'm a take this phrase like an icepick

And I might pick you off

You're soft, let's see how quick you frost

In a meat freezer, we'll seize you then sqeeze ya

Head to get rid of the lies you believe

And after this process your eyes will recieve

The glowing light, brighter than any ever in your sight

So hype, that you will gain the sense to wanna act right

In spite, of all your faults before

The Gang, will be the ones to make you seek your

Knowledge, it all is a blessing

Addressing, things about which you're guessing

So hear it, get near it, compare it to others

Think and take a drink, I'm a lyrical brother

I'd love ya, to be all you can be

If you're a man, you should be manly

Not sissy-like, and not so decietful

Because the Gang may hang you or keep you

As prisoners, for not believing the truth

That GangStarr means funky, and here is the proof



*DJ Premier flexes his oft-copied turntable skills*
