Ron "Ronnie Ron" Phillips - Kick'n' Knowledge lyrics

[Intro: Ronnie Ron] What's up this is Ronnie Ron comin' through another level For the year 1999 and year 2000 I just wanna kick a little knowledge For my little brothers out there and my sisters I just wanna thank everybody that's been down With Dangerous Records throughout the years Thank all the Bloods and Crips for tryin' to obey their lives That the news media don't talk about how crime has been waydown Since that Bangin' on Wax project had begun I really enjoy of seein' Bloods and Crips checkin' it with each other When everybody said it couldn't be done My whole philosophy was to bring my brothers together And to keep you outta graveyards And I help save our youth And the Record business is cold blooded for those who tryin' to break in You gotta understand You gon' have to pay a lot of dues In this record business The key to the record business is to try to understand this business And that's our Dangerous Records got it f**ed Trustin' so-called lawyers and so-called mothaf**in' friends You got some good lawyers out there And you got some bad lawyers out there And some of them are money hungry mothaf**in' ba*tards But one thing I learned you can't dwell on the past You have to concentrate on your future But I'll be goddamned If this will ever happen to me again Because only the strong survives When I make a hit All I wanna do is sharin' the pie And my people can make money You really need to understand how this game works The white man need you and you need him He need you to make the records and you need him to distribute it If your record sells sharin' the pie, that's the bottom line I want to take the time to kick a little knowledge my brothers If you wanna be successful in this record business You gotta have these qualities man You got to have respect for yourself as well as others Personality, Character and Discipline I'd rather deal with a artist with a little bit of talent and a whole lotta personality Than to deal with an artist that has a whole lot of talent and a f**ed up personality We can make money together You have to have these qualities to enter through the danger zone We're on another level now It's about business Let's get paid
