The Illest Brother - Gang Starr[00:00:00]

Gotta be the illest brother to claim respect[00:00:09]

It takes the illest brother just to get respect[00:00:12]

Got to be the illest brother when its time to get wreck[00:00:14]

Got to be the illest brother when I get my mic check[00:00:16]

I'm one of the illest brothers known to man[00:00:19]

But if you don't understand see I'm a grown man[00:00:21]

And I stand 58 and 3 quarters[00:00:23]

Giving orders to my sqaudron cuz I'm like the sergeant[00:00:26]

Or general but let me keep this minimal[00:00:28]

I used to hang with kids who like to live trife with a knife[00:00:31]

Cutting kids for fun and pulling out much guns[00:00:34]

And like riflery champs fellas start to get real amped[00:00:36]

Dead bodies lay stamped to the pavement so I gave it some thought[00:00:38]

Remembering the brothers who are gone now[00:00:41]

I will make a strong vow to make things right[00:00:43]

Ignite the mic get hype and all that[00:00:45]

Suckers try to menace but they always fall[00:00:48]

Flat to the ground as I astound come around[00:00:50]

Ill put you down about the brothers who think theyre the boss[00:00:52]

Think theyre getting large but in the end they pay the cost[00:00:55]

Of their lives and that ain't the way to go out[00:00:57]

Even take their boys with em cause they know their boys will go out[00:00:59]

But when it comes to facing some time[00:01:02]

Theyre like crying like weeping wanna call mom dukes[00:01:04]

But mom dukes is fed fed up with the sh*t you did[00:01:06]

She knows that you shot and she knows that you cripples kids[00:01:09]

But whos to judge when you're trying to survive[00:01:12]

The one who moves first might be the one to stay alive[00:01:14]

So when you think you're hard and dominating the set[00:01:16]

Just remember the illest brother claims respect[00:01:19]

Like I said I'm an ill kid so never dare test me[00:01:40]

They wanna arrest me cuz I'm causing a frenzy[00:01:43]

Fake gangsters come and fake gangsters go[00:01:45]

Real gangsters chill cuz real gangsters know[00:01:47]

That quietly you stalk your prey on the down low[00:01:50]

Cuz too much talk will get you beef on the street[00:01:52]

And brothers in the city have to live this way[00:01:55]

It may cause dismay but imma tell it anyway[00:01:57]

Yo guns are easy to get and like a puppet[00:01:59]

Some young kid is gonna be the subject of internal oppression[00:02:02]

An example of hard times[00:02:05]

Cuz to make it out the trap in your mind its a hard climb[00:02:06]

But even if you change and come right and exact[00:02:09]

Theres another brother scheming so just watch your back[00:02:11]

I know a brother who thought he had it all[00:02:14]

But little did he know he was bound for a down fall[00:02:16]

Hed pick up the heater and go stick somebody[00:02:19]

He wouldn't give a damn if he killed somebody[00:02:21]

Cuz if somebody would get in the way of him getting loot[00:02:23]

Thered be no hesitation hed just shoot[00:02:26]

Its like the good the bad and the ugly[00:02:28]

Except its reality and you don't see it on tv[00:02:30]

Brothers keep dying in the streets cuz the streets are designed[00:02:33]

To keep you from having peace of mind[00:02:36]

I know an old man hes got a rifle to stifle[00:02:38]

Any young punk he hides it under his bunk[00:02:40]

And I know a kid whos been to jail[00:02:43]

And he told me that the system had failed him[00:02:44]

So now hes out the joint and hes like flippin on kids[00:02:47]

And the people in his neighborhood are flippin their wigs[00:02:50]

But you gotta check the move cuz theres a reason[00:02:52]

A method to the madness and you know what I'm meaning[00:02:54]

Cuz rather than being the herb vic or chump[00:02:57]

You can be just like my man cold holding the pump[00:02:59]

But living like that you take a chance with your life[00:03:01]

But some things in life sometimes will make you uptight[00:03:04]

I'm like an avalanche of knowledge pounding down all fools[00:03:06]

All fakes all snakes[00:03:08]

And ones who try to break the rules and regulations[00:03:09]

Stipulations made by the gangstarr[00:03:12]

You try to flex muscle but you know you can't hang ha[00:03:14]

You're making me vexed but yeah you can go next[00:03:16]

Just remember the illest brother claims respect[00:03:18]

Gotta be the illest brother to claim respect[00:03:30]

Takes the illest brother just to get respect[00:03:33]

Got to be the illest brother when its time to get wreck[00:03:35]

Got to be the illest brother when I get my mic check[00:03:37]

Yo money don't front you know you blew your chance[00:03:40]

And now its my turn so imma take command[00:03:42]

Cuz I'm like the one whos got all the juice[00:03:45]

I always get loose I got the balls to reduce your crew[00:03:47]

Very easily I got more ammo[00:03:50]

I'm like the ill kid the psycho man yo[00:03:52]

Cuz now I'm past the point and I ain't gonna return[00:03:54]

And when it comes to your destruction I ain't really concerned[00:03:56]

About the consequences cuz I'm living day to day[00:03:59]

So who are you to comment about me and my ways[00:04:01]

I get my attitude from living and I never forget[00:04:04]

You got to be the illest brother just to claim respect[00:04:06]
