{*30 seconds in: dj scratches "what can we get for 63 cents?

"   They said, "that's right, or you go to prison   Cause nobody out there is really gonna listen   To a hood," so he said, "good!   I'll pay you off for the whole neighborhood"   Because      Cocaine business controls america   Ganja business controls america   Krs-one come to start some hysteria   Illegal business controls america      {*dj scratches "what can we get for 63 cents? "*}      [krs-one]   A guy named jack, is sellin crack   The community, doesn't want him back   He sells at work, he sells in schools   He's not stupid, the cops are the fools   Cause everyone else seems to go to jail   But when it comes to jack, the cops just fail   They can't arrest him, they cannot stop him   Cause even in jail the bail unlocks him   So here is the deal, and here is the facts   If you ever wonder why they can't stop crack   The police department, is like a crew   It does whatever they want to do   In society you have illegal and legal   We need both, to make things equal   So legal is tobacco, illegal is speed   Legal is aspirin, illegal is weed   Crack is illegal, cause they cannot stop ya   But cocaine is legal if it's owned by a doctor   Everything you do in private is illegal   Everything's legal if the government can see you   Don't get me wrong, america is great place to live   But listen to the knowledge I give      Cocaine business controls america   Ganja business controls america   Krs-one come to start some hysteria   Illegal business controls america      {*dj scratches "what can we get for 63 cents?
