Lyrics - Squash All Beef by Krs One

Hah, respect!
All crew, all massive, everywhere in the world
You practice the art of hip-hop
This goes out to every boy and every girl
Give me relief!
I sing!
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
I sing!
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
Check it
All beef can be squashed if you want it
But instead of forgiveness, ego you flaunt it
Everybody gets into two or three quarrels
Leadin to a squabble, someone will die tomorrow
Life is not a thing you can borrow
All beefs don't have to lead to sorrowwill ya, go out tomorrow
I think, you should think about the beef you got
And confront your enemy before it gets too hot
Never feel ashamed, to say, "
Yo
G
I'm sorry
I apologize," the object is to stay alive(paraphrasing
Kool
Moe
Dee from "
Self
Destruction")
I never ran from the
Klu
Klux
Klanand
I shouldn't have to run from a black man(a group says it together)
I never ran from the
Klu
Klux
Klanand
I shouldn't have to run from a black man
Yeah!
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
I sing!
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
He said she said, but she said she didn't
Face gets hit, and then, bullets start spittin
No one's admittin to their wrong doing, unfittinrevenge we're pursuin, look at what you're doin,
LISTENRelease the calm and that should carry it
Be a mental vegetarian indulge in no beefs, like thefish in the aquarium, you'll enjoy it while you're tryin it
There is no seperation between the mind and the environment
Like a bolt of lightning
I'm givin 5000 volts of the occult while
I'm writin and recitin
I've come to enlighten black and white to the meaningless fightin
Clash of the titans ain't rightand it's wrong so the song reflectsfor too long we've been vexed at each other
Every sister, every brother..
You've gots ta
LOVE one another(paraphrasing
Kool
Moe
Dee from "
Self
Destruction")
I never ran from the
Klu
Klux
Klanand
I shouldn't have to run from a black man(a group says it together)
I never ran from the
Klu
Klux
Klanand
I shouldn't have to run from a black man
Yeah!
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
Check it
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
Ha hah
Give me relief! (
That's right)
Squash all beef!
If
I ruled the schools, from pole to polethe entire judicial system would fold
I would get rid of the books cause they bogusand in school,
Knowledge of
Self would be the focus
Kids would flock to the schools like locusts
Cause school now relates to them, and you would noticeviolence in society would be a minimal
Cause the education yeah, would now be metaphysical
Not livin by laws, but livin by principal
If you disobey, the
UNIVERSE gets with you
We would study giving so no one would steal
And we would read each other's magnetic fields
Petty crimes times petty crimesequals prison for lifetimes
The universe divided by twoequals me and you
Me and you, go into the universe onceor as one united front
But listen up, when
I was growin up in hip-hoppinwe had a thing called
Jailhouse
Boxin
That's why
I'm
STILL here rockincause my competition never pulled a
Glock in, yeah
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
I sing!
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
Yeah!
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
I sing!
Give me relief!
Squash all beef!
Don't let these arguments destroy us!
