Lawrence "Kris" Parker (KRS-One) Quotes

They put me in the backseat of their car handcuffed,
Pushed out them chests like they're big rough and tough.

You take the guns from me, you sell them for a fee;
Anyway you put it, they'll get in the city!'

We look at young black kids with a scowl on their face, walking a certain way down the block with their sweatpants dangling, however, with their hoodies on. And folks think that this is a show of power or a show of force. But I know, because I've been among those kids, it ultimately is fear.
